2300 B.C.E. Ú SHIFT OF POWER  in  PERSIAN CIVILIZATION

Susa city-state falls under the rule of the Mesopotamian kings of Akkad and, later, the Third Dynasty of “Ur ”. At the end of this period, the Elamites invaded southern Mesopotamia, destroying the city of “Ur ” as a revenge for the previous Babylonian invasions and marked the beginning of a new era of rising Elamite power within the region. Elamites interfered in Mesopotamian affairs, usually in alliance with Babylon, against the constant pressure of Neo-Assyrian expansion.

Susa later played an important part in Babylonian opposition to the brutal Assyrian domination. Susa Kingdom reign ended by the start of the Persian Achaemenid Empire.
