Also known as Mittani, Hanigalbat, Naharin
Mitanni or Mittani (–1260 BC), earlier called Ḫabigalbat in old Babylonian texts, ; Ḫanigalbat or Ḫani-Rabbat in Assyrian records, or Naharin in Egyptian and some Akkadian texts, was a Hurrian-speaking state in northern Syria and southeast Anatolia (modern-day Turkey) with Indo-Aryan linguistic and political influences. Since no histories, royal annals or chronicles have yet been found in its excavated sites, knowledge about Mitanni is sparse compared to the other powers in the area, and dependent on what its neighbours commented in their texts.
Mitanni was an ancient state in northern Syria and southeast Anatolia that flourished until around 1260 BC, ruled by Hurrian-speaking people with Indo-Aryan influences. Our knowledge of Mitanni is limited because no historical records from the kingdom itself have been found; instead, we rely on what neighboring powers wrote about it in their own texts.
