ancient hurrian civilization
The Hurri civilization had been well-known in
the closing stages of the third millennium BC near Eastern Anatolia governed by
the Mitanni
kingdom. It is actually said that the king was from an Indian decadency.
Originated through the mountain tops in the south of the Caspian Sea, the
Hurrians, utilized the terrain within the Assyria and Hittites, in the Zagros
mountain area towards the east of the Tigris River .
After that, they dispersed right into the regions of Syria
and northern Mesopotamia in addition to the
Mediterranean coast. A few of these places at that period were called the “Land
of the Hurri”. Because of their wide scatter, the Hurrians developed into a
rival and a hazard to both Egypt
and Babylon .
Down the middle of the fourteenth century,
the Empire of Hittite ruled by Suppiluliumas-I discomfited Mitanni and thus Assyria
announced its independency. Although the Hurrian cultural and ethnic position
in the Cilicia (ancient Kizzuwadna) and Syria were highly affected the
Hittites; Hurrian mythology was widely applied in Hittite literature. Even the
Hittite queens usually had Hurrian names. A number of Hittite gods are believed
to have come from the Hurrian origin. The Hurri dialect was a completely
distinct entity from the rest. The culture and the language of Hurri
civilization was adopted or leastwise put to use substantially by Hittites and
Urartus.
