Possibly the earliest military action involving the Kassites is preserved in the date formula[nb 3] for Samsu-iluna's ninth year (1741 BC).
[2] It is called "the year of the Kassite army",[nb 4] in which it seems that he was not wholly successful at repelling the raiders, a sign of weakness which triggered widespread revolts in cities all over Mesopotamia and a decisive response from Samsu-iluna.
[5] Two seal impressions[i 3] found at Ḫana's capital Terqa[4][6] read, "[Gi]mil Ninkar[ak], son of Arši-a[ḫum], [se]rvant of Ila[ba], [and K]aštili[ašu]".
At that time, the Ekur of Enlil, which in the conquest Had been destroyed (remainder gone) [nb 6] Agum I may be the subject of a 7th-century BC historical inscription which also mentions Damiq-ilῑšu, the last king of the 1st Dynasty of Isin.
The traces in the ninth position of the Synchronistic King List do not allow for the name Agum, so Kakrime has been suggested as an alternative.
