Be that* as it may, both charts** suggest a break (and a ‘blank’ record) around 2048 in Mesoptamia, giving a 2048 year cycle (2048bce-0ce) within which both North and South Mesopotanian civilisations fit, from c[irca] C–S~ to loss of independence at G~.

Up to 2048bce is*** Sumer and Akkad (and Ur); from c2048bce are Babylonia and Assyria (including the Hurri and Mitanni), but quietly at first.

But on a smaller scale than this, the ‘pattern’**** is confused: it is difficult to interpret the quality of events, which is partly a problem of scaling, and I assume that this arises from the interference of many cycles on many scales in what was then the ‘cockpit’ of the World.
