Peli (king of Awan)
Elamite king
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Peli (also written as: Pi-e(?)-li(?), Pieli, Peyli, and/or Feyli) was the eponymous founding king of the dynasty of Peli and may have been the first to exercise the kingship of Awan over all of Elam.[1][2][3] He probably reigned sometime in the first Paleo-Elamite period (c. 2400 – c. 2015 BC).[4] Additionally; he could have possibly been the same first king from Awan said on the Sumerian King List (SKL) to exercise the kingship over all of Sumer.[5][6] According to the SKL: he was preceded by Balulu of Ur and succeeded by Kur-Ishshak. However, the Susanian Dynastic List states that he was succeeded by Tata.[7]
