Pattin

Pattin (also known as Pattina, Patina, Unqu and Unqi), was an ancient Luwian Syro-Hittite state at the beginning of the 1st millennium BC.

It was located at the north-western coast of ancient Syria, associated with the modern-day Hatay.

The capital of the state was Kinalua (Kunalua, Kalneh, or Kinaluwa), which has been tentatively associated with Tell Tayinat[1] in modern-day Turkey.

Khazazu (modern-day Azaz) was one of Pattin's dependencies which was invaded by Assyria around 870 BC.

The frontier fortress of Aribua (associated with the modern-day region of Idlib) within the land of Lukhuti to the immediate south of Pattin was also ravaged.
