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.

米坦尼(英語:Mitanni)是美索不达米亚的古老國家,由胡里安人在大約公元前1550年所建立,整體歷史不明,多藉由鄰國所述拼湊。最初可能是趁西台消滅巴比倫以及亞述古王國衰落的時機壯大。其領土範圍在現在的美索不達米亞北部,於前15世紀國力達到頂峰,與埃及第十八王朝法老圖特摩斯三世並列並爭奪地中海東岸霸主地主,佔有目前的土耳其東南部、敘利亞北部與伊拉克北部,將亞述古王國納為附庸,首都(Washukanni)的位置則尚未確定。公元前15世紀末,西台重新崛起,米坦尼因而改與埃及法老阿蒙霍特普二世結盟,此後米坦尼與埃及長期結盟對抗西台。約在公元前1375-1350年之間,米坦尼國王圖什拉塔被其子殺死後,其兒子間發生王位繼承的內戰,其中一個兒子沙提瓦扎逃往西台,西台國王蘇庇路里烏瑪一世藉機進攻米坦尼,米坦尼因與法老阿肯那頓發生嚴重矛盾,失去埃及的援助,最終西台擊敗米坦尼,沙提瓦扎即位,但米坦尼此後便逐漸衰落,並淪為西台附庸。另一方面,亞述在國王阿淑爾烏巴里特一世 時期(約公元前1365-1330年)崛起,米坦尼被亞述擊敗,亞述王國獨立,米坦尼反而淪為亞述附庸,直至公元前1260年代,亞述國王薩爾瑪那薩爾一世在位期間,亞述併吞米坦尼。
