Tahurwaili was a king of the Hittites (Middle Kingdom), c. early 15th century BC (middle chronology) or mid 15th century BC (short chronology timeline). He was a cousin of the King Telipinu.
== Family == As a first cousin of Telipinu, must have been the son of one of Ammuna's brothers. This would have made him a direct male descendant of Zidanta I, so that his royal blood stemmed ultimately from Zidanta’s wife. It was tenuous, but the blood line was carried on.
