 Emahsini's name does not appear on the Awan kinglist, but the Rimush inscriptions claim that the combined forces of Elam and Warahshe, led by General Sidgau, were defeated at a battle "on the middle river between Awan and Susa".Scholars have adduced a number of such clues that Awan and Susa were probably adjoining territories.With these defeats, the low-lying, westerly parts of Elam became a vassal of Akkad centred at Susa.
