Some of the kings of these cities - Bera of Sodom, Gomorrah Birsha, Shinab of Admah, Zeboiim Shemeber of a king whose name is unknown of Bela or Zoar - they went to war against Chedorlaomer of Elam and allies / vassals its Amraphel of Shinar, Arioch and Tidal Ellasar of the Gutimului (Genesis 14:1-2), after 12 years of bondage. The two sides met in the valley of Siddim, where Chedorlaomer defeated and took all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah, and prisoners, including Lot, Abraham's nephew, who, after a quarrel between their servants due to reduced grazing area (which we were expected to flock), moved in Sodom (Genesis 14:10-12).
