DATING THE FALL OF BABYLON AND UR by Gerard Gertoux

A tablet (VAT 1429) describes the Kassite king Agum II as bukašu "Duke" of Babylon, who is actually the first Kassite king of Babylon

According to a Babylonian Chronicle58: he did battle against him [...] their corpses, the sea [...] he changed and Samsu-iluna [...] Iliman attacked and [brought about] the defeat of [his] army. Albishi, son of Samsu-iluna, set out to conquer Iliman. He decided to dam the Tigris. He dammed the Tigris but did not capture Iliman. At the time of Samsu-ditana the Hittites marched against Akkad. Ea- gamil, king of the Sealand, f[led] to Elam. After he had gone, Ulamburiash, brother of Kashtiliash (III), the Kassite, mustered his army and conquered the Sealand. He was master of the land. Agum (III), son of Kashtiliash (III), mustered his army and marched to the Sealand. Thus, after the fall of Babylon [in 1499 BCE], Agum II a Kassite King of Chaldean origin began to dominate northern Babylonia (land of Akkad) and the Sealand Kings, perhaps of Sumerian origin, began to dominate southern Babylonia (land of Sumer) up to Ulam-Buriaš who defeated them [c. - 1450].
