I/5 — EARLY SUSIANA & ELAM 3000 BC

I/5 EARLY SUSIANA & ELAM 3000 BC - 800 BC

This list covers the prehistoric proto-Elamite states east of Mesopotamia in modern Iran until around 2700 BC, the later slates in that area of Elam and Anshan, and still further east the highland kingdoms of Markhashi, Awan and Aratta and the semi-nomadic cultures of Bactria and Margiana until around 800 BC. Early Susiana and Elam seem to have adopted many aspects of Mesopotamian civilization, but do not seem to have evolved into similar centralized states. Their warriors were predominantly archers. Elam remained a threat to its western neighbours when strong and a tempting area for conquest when weak. References: Armies of the Ancient Near East N. Stillman & N.
