The Sealand (in Babylonian, mar timtim ) was the name of a region along the southern edge of Mesopotamia. Ancient lists contain details about several kings of this region, who comprise what is known as the Sealand Dynasty.

Around 1732 BCE, the Sealand Dynasty was founded by Iluma-ilum, previously the ruler of Isin, who then established a territory for himself in the swampy lands of southern Mesopotamia, and survived attempts at destroying his kingdom by Abi-Eshuh. This dynasty controlled the territory "from Nippur southward" (see Nippur).
