Liyan is an Elamite port on Persian Gulf (near modern-day Bushire, Iran ), and first name of Kiririsha (at one stage became the most important goddess of Elam , ranked second only to her husband the god,) where she and Humban had a temple that was erected by Humban-Numena. There was later (ca. 1250 BC) a temple built to her at Chogha Zanbil . She was often called 'the Great', or 'the divine mother'. She seems to have been primarily worshipped in the south of Elam.
