Mullissu-mukannishat-Ninua (Akkadian: Mullissu-mukannišat-Nīnua) was a queen of the Neo-Assyrian Empire as the primary consort of Ashurnasirpal II (r. 883–859 BC). She was probably also the mother of his son and successor Shalmaneser III (r. 859–824 BC). Mullissu-mukannishat-Ninua is only known from her tomb, discovered in Nimrud in 1989. She was the daughter of the "great cupbearer" Ashur-nirka-da’’inni and as such probably belonged to the Assyrian aristocracy before she became queen.
