Ikun-Mari (fl. c. 2500 BC)[1] was a king (Lugal) of the second Mariote kingdom.[1] His name was recorded on a stone jar mentioning his wife "Alma".[1] The script's style on the jar suggest a date later than the reign of the Mariote king Ikun-Shamash but earlier than the reign of king Isqi-Mari.[1]

Queen Alma is mentioned in Eblaite texts that also mention the Mariote king Nizi and princes (later kings) Enna-Dagan and Hidar.[1][2]
