Eblaites practiced deceased kings worship;[3] the cult of Sagisu was maintained in Ebla and was of importance during the enthronement of new kings.[4] Offerings were presented to Sagisu during the coronation festivals of kings Irkab-Damu and Isar-Damu; this prove the continuity of the royal family of Ebla.[5]
