2388	ENT_ELAM_INSHUSHINAK	aligned_with	ENT_MES_UTU_SHAMASH	medium	Inshushinak and Utu/Shamash are structurally parallel as judicial deities who oversee divine justice and adjudicate the fates of the dead. Both operate at the threshold between life and death as the divine judge of last resort; both are associated with light and truth as the foundations of judgment. The parallel was recognized in antiquity through the close cultural contact between Susa and Mesopotamia: Elamite scribes used Akkadian cuneiform and were well aware of Shamash's judicial role. Confidence medium: no ancient source explicitly equates them, but the structural and functional alignment is strong and frequently noted in modern scholarship. Potts (1999) p. 276.
