Uhub (Sumerian: 𒌑𒄸, u2-hub2),[5] (c. 2600 BCE), was Ensi (Governor) of the Sumerian city-state of Kish before Mesilim[6][7]
His name is missing from the Sumerian king list, just as the name of Mesilim, who ruled about fifty years later.[8][9] Uhub is mentioned on a vase dedicated to god Zababa.[10][9] The first inscription has been reconstructed as 𒀭𒍝𒈠𒈠 / 𒌑𒄸 / 𒑐𒋼𒋛 / 𒆧𒆠, Zamama, Uhub ensi kish-ki "Zababa, Uhub, Governor of Kish".[11]
Uhub is otherwise known from a few more inscriptions.[12]
