thumb|260px| Puzur-Inshushinak (Linear Elamite: 90px Puzur Sušinak; Akkadian: , puzur3-dinšušinak, also , puzur4-dinšušinak "Inshushinak (is) protection"; died 2110 BC), also sometimes thought to read Kutik-Inshushinak in Elamite, was a king of Elam, and the last from the Awan dynasty according to the Susa kinglist. He mentions his father's name as Šimpi-išhuk, which, being an Elamite name, suggests that Puzur-Inshuhinak himself was Elamite. He is also the first historical figure in Elamite history.

Khita, sometimes Hita in Elamite ( hi-ta-a; ), was governor of Elam and the 11th king of the Awan Dynasty of Elam, around 2250 BC. He was most likely the grandfather of the famous Elamite ruler Kutik-Inshushinak, who succeeded him on the throne.

Luh-ishan, also Luhhiššan, Luh-ishshan, Lu-ishan ( lu-uh-ish-an, also lu-uh-hi ish-sha-an; died 2325 BC) was a king of Elam and the 8th king of the Awan Dynasty. Hishep-ratep, if he is to be identified with Hishep-rashini, was the father of Luh-ishan.

Hishep-ratep (), the ninth name on the Awan king list, identified as Hishep-rashini (Hišibrašini) in Akkadian inscriptions, was a king of Elam belonging to the Awan Dynasty.

Epirmupi ( E-pir-mu-pil, previously read E-nam-mu-de; died 2154 BC) was a ruler of Elam around 2199–2154 BC. His name is purely Akkadian, and he was in charge of Elam at the time of Rimush and Manishtushu, or early in the reign of Naram-Sin and probably their dependent and vassal. His title of "Military Governor" (Shakkanakku in Akkadian, GIR.NITA in Sumerian) suggests that he was a dependent of the Akkadian kings, rather than an independent ruler. He also held the title of Ensi of Susa".
