6 tribes defeated by Kederlaomer and his allies in Abraham and Lot's Day, Genesis 14

Genesis 14:5-7
In the fourteenth year, Kedorlaomer and the kings allied with him went out and defeated

the Rephaites in Ashteroth Karnaim,
the Zuzites in Ham,
the Emites in Shaveh Kiriathaim
and the Horites in the hill country of Seir, as far as El Paran near the desert.

Then they turned back and went

to En Mishpat (that is, Kadesh), and they conquered the whole territory of the Amalekites,
as well as the Amorites who were living in Hazezon Tamar.
