Shuttarna II

Shuttarna II (or Šuttarna) was a king of the Hurrian kingdom of Mitanni in the early 14th century BC.

From Alalakh in the west, Mitanni shared its border with Egypt in northern Syria, approximately by the river Orontes.

[3][4] The heart of the kingdom was in the Khabur River basin where the capital Washshukanni was situated.

The Hittites attempted to invade the northern border lands of Mitanni, but were defeated by Shuttarna.

[5] Shuttarna's daughter Kilu-Hepa (sometimes spelled Gilukhepa) was given to Amenhotep III in marriage to seal the alliance between the two royal houses in the Pharaoh's 10th regnal year, taking with her a great dowry.
