Iku-Shamagan (𒄿𒆪𒀭𒊭𒈠𒃶, i-ku-Dsha-ma-gan, fl. c. 2500 BC) was a King of the second Mariote kingdom. He is one of three Mari kings known from archaeology, Ikun-Shamash probably being the oldest one. Another king was Ishqi-Mari, also known from an inscribed statue.
In their inscriptions, these Mari kings used the Akkadian language, whereas their contemporaries to the south used the Sumerian language.
