Ulam-Buriaš contemporarily inscribed as Ú-la-Bu-ra-ra-ia-aš or mÚ-lam-Bur-áš in a later chronicle and meaning “son of (the Kassite deity) Buriaš” was a Kassite king of Sealand (cuneiform:LUGAL KUR A.AB.BA Akkadian: šar māt tâmti) which he conquered during the second half of 16th century BC and may have also become king of Babylon possibly preceding or succeeding his brother Kaštiliašu III. His reign marks the point at which the Kassite kingdom extended to the whole of southern Mesopotamia.
