  Ellasar
     the oak or heap of Assyria, a territory in Asia of which Arioch
     was king (Gen. 14:1, 9). It is supposed that the old Chaldean
     town of Larsa was the metropolis of this kingdom, situated
     nearly half-way between Ur (now Mugheir) and Erech, on the left
     bank of the Euphrates. This town is represented by the mounds of


     Senkereh, a little to the east of Erech.
