Abstract

Sumerian cuneiform texts contain information about ancient Armenia and adjacent countries, although scarce, but at the same time very valuable. According to the mentioned sources, in the III millennium BC in the south of the Armenian Highland, and in adjacent territories, existed the country of Subur/Subir (in Akkadian - Subartu or Shubartu). According to the existing information, in addition to the texts from Fara, the country of Subartu is also mentioned in the inscription of the king Lugal-Anne-Mundu from the Sumerian city of Adab. This is the first time that the Sumerian text cited in the article has been presented in Armenian with Latin transliteration.
