Shutruk-Nakhunte facts for kids

Babylonian stele usurped by an unknown Elamite king. The stele, probable Babylonian work of the 12th century, was recut to allow for a new standing figure, probably added in Susa in the 8th century BC, or slightly earlier. The seated figure of a god remained, and is therefore Babylonian of the 12th century BC. Louvre Museum.

Šutruk-Nakhunte was king of Elam from about 1184 to 1155 BC (middle chronology), and the second king of the Shutrukid Dynasty.

Elam amassed an empire that included most of Mesopotamia and western Iran. Under his command, Elam defeated the Kassites and established the short-lived Elamite Empire, conquered within about 40 years by Nebuchadnezzar I of Babylon, in 1120 BC.

Šutruk-Nakhunte was married to the daughter of a Kassite king named Meli-Šipak.

Inscription on the Naram-Sin victory stele

Inscription of Shutruk-Nahhunte in Elamite on the Victory Stele of Naram-Sin.

Shutruk-Nahhunte is known by an inscription to have taken the Victory Stele of Naram-Sin, dated about one millennium earlier to circa 2250 BC. His inscription appears on the top right corner of the stele, on the depiction of a mountainous cone, and was written in Elamite by Shutruk-Nahhunte himself:

"I am Shutruk-Nahhunte, son of Hallutush-Inshushinak, beloved servant of the god Inshushinak, king of Anshan and Susa, who has enlarged the kingdom, who takes care of the lands of Elam, the lord of the land of Elam. When the god Inshushinak gave me the order, I defeated Sippar. I took the stele of Naram-Sin and carried it off, bringing it to the land of Elam. For Inshushinak, my god, I set it as an offering."
