Hayani
Hayani was the twentieth Assyrian monarch of the Early Period of Aššūrāyu according to the Assyrian King List. Hayani is listed within a section of the AKL as the fourth out of the ten "kings whose fathers are known". This section had been written in reverse order—beginning with Aminu and ending with Apiashal “altogether ten kings who are ancestors”—and has often been interpreted as the list of ancestors of the Amorite Šamši-Adad I who had conquered the city-state of Aššur. The AKL also states that Hayani was the son and successor of Hale. Additionally, the AKL states that Hayani had been both the predecessor and father of Ilu-Mer.
