Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Amorites, led by Hammurabi, did indeed replace the Sumerians and Akkadians as rulers of Mesopotamia. This is the only option that accurately reflects historical events. The other options are false - the Akkadian Empire conquered and expanded, Ur was a city-state that did not cause disintegration, Hammurabi did not eliminate all aspects of Sumerian culture, and Sumer was not established by the Hyksos (who were a later group in Ancient Egypt).
