Tarkasnawa

Tarkasnawa was ruler of the Kingdom of Mira, and one of the last independent kings of Arzawa, a Bronze Age confederation of kingdoms in western Anatolia.

[1] Tarkasnawa appears in the Karabel relief, where his name is inscribed in Luwian hieroglyphs.

[1] This is a bilingual seal, combining a cuneiform inscription on the rim and the corresponding Hittite hieroglyphs around the figure in royal dress, giving the name of the ruler: Tarkasnawa.

[1] This bilingual inscription provided the first clues for deciphering Hittite hieroglyphs.
