The Hallateans, like the Gurreans and Itueans, were probably WSem. tribesmen (presumably Arameans) serving as auxiliaries in the Assyrian army. A fortress on the eastern border of the Assyrian empire (in Zamua) was named after the Gurreans, prob. stationed there (Halsu $a Gur-A+A, “the Gurreans* fortress’; Zadok 1995: 435). 24. Na-ni-zi (7° century; Assur, SAAB 9, 93, rev. 10; PNA 2: 928a; Zadok 2005: 100:4, ef. below, V.). 25. Tar-Au-x[xxxx]) owed 6 minas of silver to Nahiri. Therefore he pledged his slave Ti-ur-a-me (unexpl., pater familias) with his wife and two sons (date lost [Sargonid?}; Nineveh (?); SAA 14, 209, ¢. 1; Galil 2006), 26. "Tu-ta"-mu-u is recorded in a list of men (deportees?) (Sargonid (?);Nineveh (?); SAA 11, 185, ii, 1’). 1.2 Commagenians Commagenians (NA sg. Kummuhdyu) and augurs from there received rations in Calah as early as 784 (CTN 1: 75, 91, 12708: 1, iii, 7, 130ff: 3, 41%; CTN 1: 75 with n. 2; Hawkins 1980-83; 339a). Sargon II deported Commagenians not to Assyria proper, but to Babylonia and adjacent regions (notably Dir-Bél-ilaya, Bit-Yakin and Bit-Kiblate; Zehnder 2005; | 22, n. 2). Only later, in Sennacherib’s reign, was Assyria the destination of Commagenian deportees in addition to Babylonia (Oded 1979: 119, 127). However, 2000 exempted men (zakkii) under the charge of a Commagenian are recorded at the end of the 8" century, according to a letter from the Hamath region found at Calah (Saggs 1966: 184: NL 88, 27ff.; Postgate 1974a: 38111). According to Parpola (SAA 1: 135: 172), they were the soldiers of the Commagenian (king). This means that the vassal king supplied auxiliary forces for guarding the border of the province of Hamath from the desert Arabians. However, CTN 5: 174-175 renders it *2,000 zakku-men of the land of Kummuh’*. Augurs are also attested at Calah in Sargon II's time (Parker 1961: 26: ND 2442, 7; Hawkins 1980-83: 339a). Anonymous Commagenian emissaries are recorded in the same period (PNA 2: 637b). Warriors from Commagene were incorporated in the Assyrian army by Sargon II (Zehnder 2005; 153 with n. 4). 1. Ahi-sa-pa (WSem., probably Aram.) from Commagene (“Ku-muh-A-ctA>) is mentioned in connection with a legal case concerning the activities of two Kushite eunuchs (Esarhaddon/early reign of Assurbanipal [c. 680-660]; Nineveh(?): SAA 11,47, 1, 3; PNA 1: 67b). 2. dn-du-u (from Commagene ace. to envelope) acted as the 2™ witness (of 5) in the promissory note. He is homonymous with 4 below (9.1V.Nabii-Sar-ahhésu = 646*; Nineveh (?); SAA 14, 94, inner tablet: SAA 14, 95, envelope: 3” of 7). 3. Par-nu-u-aeri, f. of Sukkayu from Commagene (Kummuh). His son was a Commagenian merchant (or agent, ramkdru; Deller 1987; with a stamp seal). He bears an Akk, name common in Assyria, an indication that he dwelled in Assyria proper or at least was influenced by the Assyrian culture, He sold to Asalluhi-Suma-iddina, company commander (rah-kisri) of the sa Sépi-guard of the palace, 12 slaves (3 families of $+4+2 and a single one, their list is by size of the familial unit in descending order) for 10 minas of silver (with a fine of one mina of silver to Issar of 5 Does it begin with *7iwa- (Luw. *sun’), like 7i-wa-zi-ti (Laroche 1981: 45; 1353b; Goetze 1954; 79) and Tiwa-sarpas (Goetze 1954: 78b)? Or is it a variant of Tab-ri-a-me (Dalley 1996-97: 73f., 92, pl. 1: 3, 3: -[me}. 4, rev. 1)?ww harrassowitz-verlag.de 9° 783447 061193 . 5 Copyrighted material
