Nebuchadrezzar I, also known as Nebuchadnezzar I (Akkadian: Nabu-kudurri-usur, meaning "Nebo, protect my eldest son" or "Nebo, protect the border"), was the king of the Babylonian Empire from about 1146 BC to 1123 BC. He is considered to be the greatest king of the Dynasty of Pashe (also known as the second Isin dynasty), a line which held the Babylonian throne through 1010 BC. His greatest success was re-establishing the Babylonian lands by driving out the Elamite invaders who had taken over much of the territory. He then proceeded to push out and solidify his borders, locking Babylon into a conflict with the Assyrians. He is not to be confused with the more well-known Nebuchadnezzar II of biblical fame.

One of Nebuchadrezzar's foremost interests was education, similar to Assurbanipal, another well known Mesopotamian monarch[citation needed].
