| Successor | Sarduri I |
| Issue | Sarduri I |
Lutipri may have ruled Urartu between 844 and 834 BCE, in a period of obscurity after the destruction of the former capital Arzashkun by Shalmaneser III, and before Sarduri's foundation of the new capital at Tushpa.[1]
As Sarduri I may have established a new dynasty, it is possible that his father, Lutipri, was not actually a king of Urartu.[2]
