Kudur-Mabuk ; (ku-du-ur-ma-bu-uk) (19th century BC) was a high official in the ancient Near East city-state of Larsa. He first comes to light in the reign of Sin-Iddinam (c. 1849-1843 BC), when he was in Mashkan-shapir, in the Emutbal province of Larsa (annexed by earlier ruler Zabaia) which was in the northern part of the kingdom of Larsa and is not mentioned after the 8th year of Rim-Sin I and presumed to have died at that point. His sons Warad-Sin (c. 1834-1823 BC) and Rim-Sin I (c. 1822-1763 BC) were kings of Larsa. Late in the reign of Warad-Sin he became governor of Emutbal. Though never a ruler he wielded much power in the region with titles like "Father of the Amorite land" (ad.da.kur.mar.tu) and "Father of Emutbala" (ad.da-e-mu-ut-ba-la). He was responsible for the restoration and rebuilding of a number of prominent buildings including the Eeà ¡kite shrine for Nanna, the Egabura for Ningubalag, Ekuga for Nergal, Ekituà ¡à ¡atenbi for Zababa, and Etilmun for Inana as well as the Nanna-ḫul canal. He also led a number of military campaigns for Larsa, especially during the reign of Rim-Sin I. He restored Maà ¡kÃÂn-à ¡ÃÂpir and KÃÂr-à  amaà ¡ to Larsa and have smitten the army of Kazallu and Mutiabal in Larsa (and) Emutbalaâ and to have "seized Kazallu, torn down its wall, (and) made it submit".
Maà ¡kÃÂn-à ¡ÃÂpir was led by á¹¢illë-Ià ¡tar who Kudur-Maduk called "Enemy of Larsa, evil-doer against Emutbala". A stele, no lost but known from an inscription copy, whosed Kudur-Mabuk smiting á¹¢illë-Ià ¡tar. There was a Dur-Kudur-Mabuk, "Fortress of Kudur-Mabuk", in the kingdom of Larsa.
He is mentioned in three of his sons year names, Rim-Sin I year 3 - "Year in which (Rim-Sin) brought 4 statues in copper representing Kudur-mabuk into the temple of Nanna and built the temple of Ninmarki in Ashdubba", Rim-Sin I year 5 - "Year (Rim-Sin) brought 2 statues in copper representing Kudur-mabuk and a stele in copper into (the temple) Egalbarra / the outer palace", and Warad-Sin year 9 - "Year (Warad-Sin) brought one golden statue adorned with gold! (representing) Kudur-mabuk into the temple of Shamash". Inscriptions of Warad-Sin also mention dedicating several Balag instruments (used in religious ceremonies) to himself and Kudur-Mabuk.
His name was Elamite (meaning "(The god) Mabuk is a protector") as was that of his father à  imti-à ¡ilhak and his daughter Manzi-wartaà ¡. Nothing is known about the god Mabuk who is known only from personal names (theonyms). His daughter En-ane-du (possibly Manzi-wartaà ¡ it not being uncommon for new en-priestesses to adopt a Sumerian name on ascension) was high priestess of the moon god Nanna in Ur. A stone seal found at Ur read "Enanedu en priestess of the god Nanna of Ur, son of Kudur-mabuk, brother of Warad-Sîn, king of Larsa.". Other inscriptions read "daughter of Kudur-mabuk" and it is not clear why this one reads "son". It has been proposed that Kudur-Mabuk had another son, Sîn-muballiá¹Â, who is known to have been a governor for Larsa at Maà ¡kÃÂn-à ¡ÃÂpir. He is not, probably, to be confused the ruler of Babylon having the same name, Sîn-muballiá¹Â. Sîn-muballiá¹ was governor of Maà ¡kÃÂn-à ¡ÃÂpir when it was captured by Hammurabi of Babylon.
