Sumu-la-ilu attacked and captured Kish, but did not slay Bunutakhtunila, its king, who became his vassal.

He achieved a victory, but the wily Ilu-ma-ilu eluded him, and after a reign of sixty years was succeeded by his son, Kiannib.

After the fall of Rim-Sin it became powerful under a king called Ilu-ma-ilu.

The city appears to have opened its gates to him although it was in the kingdom of Mati-ilu, who acknowledged Urartian sway.

Here Adi-mati-ilu and other property were given to a son who was to take a double portion and divide the rest with his brothers.
