abstract
  • Tunip was a city/'city-state' in western Syria during the 1350-1335 BC, (and prior to that time), Amarna letters correspondence. The name "Syria" did not exist, though Assyria was beginning. The regions were: Amurru, Nuhašše, the Amqu (the Beqaa), Nii, etc. The record of the appellation 'Tunip' is mainly from Egyptian records, (Thutmose III, and Ramesses II), and especially the Amarna letters. But see also: Tunip-Tessup-(of 1550 BC). Tunip is especially mentioned in the Amarna letters of Aziru, residing in Amurru and in conflict with the king of Hatti. He is often claiming to reside in Tunip, until it is safe to leave, or to try to defend other cities/city-states of his region. The local region in Syria, Nuhašše is also in conflict, and is mentioned in 7 of Aziru's 13 EA letters, (EA for 'el Amarna').
