The kingdom ruled northern Mesopotamia (including Syria) for about 300 years, out of their capital of Washshukanni, (or Wassukkani, or Vasukhani, meaning "a mine of wealth.") Their warriors were called marya, which is the proper Sanskrit term for it.

Assyria, previously under Mitanni control, was able to assert its independence during the reign of Ashuruballit I in approximately 1330 BC.

Assyrian sources beginning around 800 BC distinguish the "powerful Medes", ie the actual Medes, and the "distant Medes" that would later enter history under their proper names, (Parthians, Sagartians, Margians, Bactrians, Sogdians etc).
Among the nations that benefited from the decline of the Assyrians were the Persians, whose presence around Lake Urmia to the north of Elam is attested from the 9th century BC in Assyrian texts.
The rise of the Achaemenids in the 6th century BC brought an end to the existence of Elam as an independent political power "but not as a cultural entity" (Encyclopedia Iranica, Columbia University).

 The Star Sothis and Egyptian Chronology
The dates in the twenty-third century BC - attributed to Hammurabi by the earlier historians - have had to be periodically adjusted as a result of new archaeological finds; first to c.2100 BC, and more lately to c.1700 BC, with differences of opinion still amounting to nearly a century.
And since from his general estimation he believed that the date of 2781 BC was an impossibly late one for the commencement of this sequence of eleven dynasties, Meyer concluded that the Egyptian calendar must have been inaugurated in a presumed earlier Sothic period commencing at 4240 BC.
Parker, in regard to Neugebauer's revised calculation of 2800 BC for the beginning of Egyptian civilisation, could agree that Egypt by then was unquestionably in possession of a well organised economic life, as well as writing and mathematics; these being Neugebauer's conditions 'sine qua non' for the creation of a schematic calendar (16).
