Aga (Sumerian: 𒀝𒂵 Aga, Agga, or Akkà; fl. c. 2700 BC), commonly known as Aga of Kish, was king in the first dynasty of Kish during the Early Dynastic I period. He is listed in the Sumerian King List as the 23rd king of Kish and is listed in many sources as the son of Enmebaragesi. The Kishite king ruled the city at its peak, probably reaching beyond the territory of Kish, including Umma and Zabala.
The Sumerian poem Gilgamesh and Aga records the Kishite siege of Uruk after its lord Gilgamesh refused to submit to Aga, ending in Aga's defeat and consequently the fall of Kish's hegemony.
