After the destruction of Ur by Kindadu, which marked the end of Ur III, the dynasty of Awan I has been postponed just after the dynasty ofUr I instead ofUr III. One can notice that Puzur-Insusinak, a powerful king of Elam, founded a new dynasty which has been classified as belonging to the kings of Akkad, which explains the gap of about 30 years between the end of the Elamite dynasty of Awan II and the beginning of the dynasty of Simaski. This coalition of kings (Sumer, Larsa, Gutium) united under Kutur-Lagamar is quite likely, because all these kings were vassals or allies of the king of Elam (and Akkad) at that time, moreover, they came from neighboring regions. 650 BCE) describe this famous attack of Babylonia by a coalition of evil kings named Kudur-KUKUmal, king of Elam, Tud!ula, king of Gutium, and Eri-Aku. Ashurbanipal, after his conquest of Elam and Susa ransacking, exposed (in 646 BCE) the capture of the goddess Nanaya (in Uruk) by Kudur-Lagamar which occured around 1300 years earlier (in 1968 BCE).

According to the chronology drawn from the Masoretic text, Abraham's departure from Ur and his arrival in Canaan are dated in 1963 BCE when Abraham is 75 years old (Genesis 12:4-5). However, the Gospels refer to it as a real story which is even described as essential to faith (Hebrews 6:20-7:2). Historians consider the biblical account about Chedorlaomer's campaign against Sodom as a pious fiction (Genesis 14:1-20). ![]()
