Babylonians, with whom they were continually at war. Baby- lonia was itself split up into various kingdoms and unable to combine against the invading force ; hence, it often happened that the Elamites obtained the superiority, and, for a time, exer- cised supreme power over the whole country. An Assyrian monarch, Assur-bani-pal, who is identified with Sardanapalus, records in one of his inscriptions J how that 1635 years before his own time, i. E. , about B. C. 2280, a king of Elam, named Kurdu...r-nankhundi, had invaded Babylonia and carried away an image of the goddess Nana who was worshipped there. For many years subsequent to this event the Elamites retained their supremacy, and Chedorlaomer was probably a descen- dant of Kurdur-nankhundi, and was sovereign of the Baby- lonian kings who are mentioned with him in Gen. Xiv. I. These kings are evidently named from accurate accounts in national annals. 2 First comes Amraphel, king of Shinar, or Southern Babylonia, whom the Septuagint calls Amarphal, and whose name, though not actually identified in any inscription, contains, according to Professor Sayce, the same element as that of a monumental king called Amar-Aku.
