National god of the Elamite Empire and consort of the mother goddess Pinikir. Ninsusinak was god of oaths and judge of the dead. The Assyrians and other Akkadian-speaking people knew him as Susinak. Another common name for him is Inshushinak.

Susinak is an Akkadian variant of the Hebrew name Susi. Susi is listed in Numbers 13:11 as the father of Gaddi, one of the spies sent by Moses into Canaan.
