Dear Cy: I'm always deeply impressed with your erudition and scholarship, and the deft way you present all this fragmentary and rather murky history. I would love it if you made a video on the various competing chronologies of the Bronze Age. I know that there are different schools of thought on this topic, and I'd love to hear what you, someone I see as an expert, thinks. I'd also love to see a video from you on just how incredibly difficult it was for scholars to painstakingly piece together a "history" of this region, given that there are really no contemporary written histories as we know them, and given the obscurity, ambiguity, and fragmentary nature of the source material.
what does your ancestors have to do with it, the Hurrians are the ancestors of the Armenians, and the Kurds are actually not a people, you are a Yazidis
@@APALA-wr6fe Armenians are hurricanes? lmao. don't they claim to be urartu? yazidi is a religion. don't tell me that Kurds are not a people. Kurds are medians and hurrians.

I wonder why you didn’t mention that when the Hurrian Kingdom became the Mittani Kingdom, the Hurrian speaking people of it became ruled by an invading (probably) elite that used a version of the Indo-European Vedic or Sanskrit language also known from India. Which in itself is a mysterious circumstance. It seems that this elite used not only Vedic or something akin to that as an official language, but also revered some of the Gods from that tradition.
Hi, and thanks for your insightful comment. Yes, that is a theory and it's backed up by evidence, such as the Indo-European names of various rulers (Artatama, Tushratta, Shaushtatar, etc). Also, the Indo-Iranian god Mithra has also been mentioned in some Hurrian texts...in one article I even read that Ahura Mazda was mentioned in a treaty. This is all extremely interesting. However, I didn't focus on that theory or the Indo-European connection for a couple of reasons; one is that the program was getting too long. I really wish I could discuss all that I want in these videos but then they'd take forever to put together. The other main reason is that despite the evidence, this theory is still quite controversial among scholars, at least that's what I gathered from my research. I didn't want to go too deep into that in a basic, overview video about the Mitanni. However, after researching it more, it may be a good topic for another future video. Thanks though for bringing this up. I appreciate it and am honestly, absolutely thrilled that there are people like you out there who really are into this stuff. More to come soon!
Hi Cy. Sorry for the delay. One is busy with other things sometimes. Thanks for your clear answer. I always thought that there were more sources for that, like cuneiform in an Indo European language from Mittani. I suppose I was mistaken about that. Thanks a lot for the clarification!
@@Popperite No worries, I'm really glad there are people like you who are into this stuff and want to know more. Thanks for stopping by and please let me know if have any other questions!
@@Popperite Mitanni cylinder seals show many Indo-Aryan motifs such as the Brahmani/Zebu Bull, the Bhodi/Ficus religiosa/sacred fig tree, a goddess holding a mirror which was a regular practice found in many Indo-Aryn cultures, also we find images of fish which could point to the story of Manu and the flood where Brahma or Vishnu appeared as a large fish to save mankind and we have other seals from Mohenjo-Daro in Nuzi similar to Mitanni seals. As you probably know Indian god's names appear in a peace treaty between Mitanni and Hatti, such as Mithra, Varuna, Indra and Nasatyas also, many Sanskrit words where found in a horse training manual this is not to mention that Mitanni kings had names with Sanskrit suffixes. For some reason or another, this area and time period of northern Mesopotamia has a dark history - including the Kasittes - and one wonders if there is a deliberate effort to keep it so because of the controversial issue of Ibraham's name which is similar to Brahma thus pointing the figure that Ibraham could have been or was a descendant of and Indo-Aryan tribe/group that moved to the southern Levant for reasons such as population pressure due to wars.
That was excellent! I was recently looking into the Mitanni (Hurrian/Hurro-Urartian) language and its potential classification. Awesome stuff! The Mitanni are an amazing civilizarion to be sure!
No, thank you for taking interest in this stuff. Just knowing that there are others out there who also like learning about these civilizations makes it worth while!
Thanks so much, I'm really glad that you like them. Yeah, I'm going to have less or at least much softer music from now on. I think it was a bit too loud in previous vids. Thanks again for stopping by, more to come soon!

@@zagrepcanin82 Hurrian is a non-Indo-European language. Croatian is a Slavonic and therefore Indo-European language. The names of some Mittanian gods and kings are Indic. While Indic languages are Indo-European it is not ancestral to Slavonic. If we believe that the Croats were originally a Sarmatian elite imposed on a Slavonic population or even a Slavicised Sarmatian tribe, it would still make their ancestry part of the Iranian, rather than the Indic branch of the Indo-Iranian family.

Washukanni or Vassukanni in kurdish means: Kani= source, well. Washe= generally means tasty, beautiful, nice. Vassu in kurdish also mean Good. The name Washukanni is similar to the Kurdish word bashkani, bash meaning good and kanî meaning well or source. There are 100's kurdish tribes speaking different kurdish dialogue. One of those kurdish tribes called Metîna tribe claims to be direct descendants of Mitanni people. Carchemish: In kurdish means: Car = is number 4, and chemish- wooden roof for the house.
They are in fact, descendants of the Mittani and the Hurrians and the Kassite's and Hittites to a lesser extent. But they remember, and many still remember. It will matter very soon, this I will let time prove, it's bigger than any of us.

The names of Gutian-Sumerian kings suggest that the language was not closely related to any languages of the region, including Sumerian, Akkadian, Hurrian, Hittite and Elamite. W. B. Henning suggested that the different endings of the king names resembled case endings in the Tocharian languages, a branch of Indo-European known from texts found in the Tarim Basin (in the northwest of modern China) dating from the 6th to 8th centuries CE, making Gutian the earliest documented Indo-European language. He further suggested that they had subsequently migrated to the Tarim.[6] Gamkrelidze and Ivanov explored Henning's suggestion, as possibly supporting their proposal of an Indo-European Urheimat in the Near East.[7][8] However, most scholars reject the attempt to connect two groups of languages, Gutian and Tocharian, that were separated by more than two millennia.[9] Tocharian theory In a posthumously-published article, W. B. Henning suggested that the different endings of the king names resembled case endings in the Tocharian languages, a branch of Indo-European known from texts found in the Tarim Basin (in the northwest of modern China) dating from the 6th to 8th centuries CE.[5] Henning also compared the name Guti with Kuči, the native name of the Tocharian city of Kucha, and with the name of the Yuezhi, pastoral nomads described in Chinese records as living to the east of the Tarim in the 2nd century BCE,[5] although the latter name is usually reconstructed with a *ŋʷ- initial in Old Chinese.[6] He also compared Tukriš, the name of neighbours of the Guti, with the name twγry found in Old Turkish manuscripts from the early 9th century CE and thought to refer to the Tocharians.[5] Gamkrelidze and Ivanov explored Henning's suggestion as possible support for their proposal of an Indo-European Urheimat in the Near East.[7][8] However, most scholars reject the attempt to compare languages separated by more than two millennia.[9]

Very good! Have you seen anything about the development of steel in Mitanni during the Bronze Age? Supposedly Tutankhamen's dagger was crafted in Mitanni from a meteorite. Successful experience with rare meteor iron may have been part of the development of steel in the region prior to the iron age.

Thank you for this well made presentation. The emblem of the Mitanni Standard is very interesting, with its bow and wings and Lions and Ibis'(?maybe Seagulls?) I assume this symbol was found on walls of ruins in the Mitanni Empire? I wonder what the Lions represent and why do the birds ride on their backs? What is the origin and significance of the eight pointed star in the circle?
Hi, thanks for stopping by! To be honest I'm not 100% sure of the specifics, though what you see on the cover is reportedly from the official seal of king Shaustartar. The eight-pointed figure could be a star but I've also read that it represents the sun. I'll try to find the exact symbolism for you and if I do will let you know. I'm glad you commented on this... makes me think about it more too.
@@HistorywithCy Thank you for the courteous reply, "Cy". After looking at your depiction of the "Mitanni Symbol", I realized (or imagined that I realized) that the overall design is in the Carry Standard Form of the Steppe Nomads. The shaft shape, protruding downward from the circled star, or sun image suggests this to me. The curved bow reinforces this impression. Makes me think that the Mitanni were once Steppe Nomads. But it is interesting that "King Shaustartar" retained the elements of this symbol, even though the "Mitanni" had been building large settled communities for a long time. Are there images of Mitanni riding Horses?
Thank you so much, comments like that make my day! It's my favorite period of history and glad that you're getting into it too! More to come, stay tuned!
Also there is a connection between Abraham and the Mitanni as well. For example the 5 Books of Moses,”our God is one” uses the Sanskrit word for one, Ekad.
I must say the most interesting people in that region from the Bronze Age period, also i am really interested in Hittites, enigmatic i think the Mittani were Indo European speaking people who ruled over Hurrians who were mostly indigenous population, i think Kurds are related to Hurrians and even to older Gutians, but Mittani were different to hem and were more related to Hittite people.
Yeah, the Hittites or Egyptians (I forget which one but I think it was the Hittites) used to specifically call the "Hurrian Kingdom of the Mitanni" though there is a lot of evidence that at least the ruling class were of Indo-European descent, mostly due to their names, perhaps the use of chariots and the names of some Indo-European gods that were included in some of their treaties. Thanks again for stopping by, really appreciate it...stay safe!
Bro Mitanni are original Kurds because we have a great kurdish Mitanni tribe in west northern Kurdistan. Hurrians and Mitanni are Kurds. Ans their ancestors are Gutians.
I seem to have found it. Something I would like to ask for, is there a way to trace bronze age religions and find their modern counterparts, and why and how they have changed into them?
Hi again, hope you enjoyed the video! In a few cases, yes, though the transition may not be very linear and it depends on the community. After the spread of first Christianity and then Islam, the break with these ancient religions was pretty definite, but often some of the rituals of these older religions remained, they were just put into a new Christian or Islamic context, with their original meanings lost. I'll see if I can find a good book or chapter from a book on this to pass along to you...it's an interesting topic that I myself would also like to learn more about. Thanks again, have a great week and stay safe!
Unrelated to anything, but I held an original letter of Hammurapi in my hand this morning. On one hand, pretty amazing. On the other hand, I could barely make out more than a handful of signs :D

The Mitanni might be the kingdom were the ancient Kurdish ancestors ruled. It's people were a mixture of Amorites and Hurrians. The Mitanni wasn't ruled by Hurrians, it was ruled by a dynasty of aryan origin that's why Mitanni rulers have Aryan names.

For some of the people who are trying to claim as being directly descendant from Hurrian is pretty funny, the Hurrians were a language-isolate (Hurro-Urartian, Anatolian language) which is very different from Kurdish, a Northwest Iranic language, and the Hurrians were split between the north (Hayas/Armenia) and the south (Assyria), there are no records of anything Hurrian in the Neo-Assyrian empire (911-609 BC), as they've been assimilated centuries prior, especially starting around 1270 BC.
No one is saying the Kurds speak the ancient Hurrian language, although there are many words still remaining in the Kurdish language that are Mittani, hurrian, sumerian etc. We are saying that the Hurrians were the ancestors of the present day Kurds as well as Armenians and others but primarily the Kurds. In Kurdish we have these names in different regions even. We believe the name Hurraman which is a Kurdish region in Iran and Iraq are direct descendants of the Hurrians as their language is very different to all the other Kurdish languages. Besides foreigners should not assume something that they have no clue about. It’s like if a Kurd interferes with England’s history but he has never been to England but just read some books. I hope you understand
@@dariusrezai8319 My statement is based on culture, which is why the Kurds state that their ancestors were the Medes, because of Iranian cultural connection, there are no people today that directly descend from the Hurrians or Sumerians, culturally speaking.
What? Assimilated? The Hurrians were one of the most numerous peoples of that time. Mitanni was located partly in the Armenian Highlands, and partly in Mesopotamia. In addition to Mitanni, there was also Kizzuwatna, which was located in the Armenian Highlands. According to modern science, the Hurrians were related to the Urarts and belonged to a special Hurro-Urartian family of languages. The Armenians were formed in the process of the merger of some aboriginal peoples of the Bronze Age (Hurrians, Urarts), as well as Indo-Europeans who came from the Balkans (mainly Luwians), who changed their language to Proto-Armenian for various historical reasons (during the time of the Achaemenid Empire, flies, carriers of the Proto-Armenian, were in power in the Armenian Highlands). Modern genetic research also shows this. Trying to prove that someone is related to someone or not related to someone based on language is wrong, since the Hurrians have been known in the region since the 3rd millennium BC. I mean that the same Assyrians changed their language, they speak the Aramaic dialect, not Assyrian. And now about the Kurds. According to the official scientific version, the Kurds come from a small people of Cyrtians who inhabited the mountainous regions at the junction of Medes and Persia. Please don't mislead people, check the facts.
@@davidbagratunyan8190 The Hurrians altogether disappeared during the Neo Assyrian empire which is a fact unless you are ignorant of history, and the Assyrians established Aramaic, which is why the Egyptian Demotic, Greeks, and Jews refer to the Aramaic language as "Assyrios" or "Kitab/Ktav Ashuri", which is why the Assyrians used Aramaic to expand, Assyria was a bilingual nation, the monarchy set Akkadian and Aramaic as official languages of the Assyrian court, as well the kings, generals, people of the heartland etc.. were all fluent in Aramaic and native Aramaic speakers, the period of Old Aramaic inscriptions were also found in the Assyrian heartland, this means that the Assyrians were writing in Aramaic centuries before the Medo-Persians were writing in Old Persian cuneiform.
@@markoskejic5028 I have read something about a Croat-Kurdish ethnic (?) or linguistic connection that is closer than other ethnic groups losely related to Kurds, the names being similar (Kurd-Kroat) and the similarity between Hurrian and Hrvat which are also considered to be among the ancestors of Kurds is interesting.

I wonder if the Mitanni language is closer to Vedic Sanskrit or Ancient Nuristani as Mitanni came before even Vedic Sanskrit, much like Ancient Nuristani, but through linguistic analysis Mitanni shares more in language and religion with the Vedic people. Interesting thought
Mittanis language is post Vedic ,their is no rigvedic Sankrit word as dasaratha or tusharatta It found in post Vedic sankrit , mittanis originally called themselves marya-nuh Which found in rigveda ( marya ) associated with young male ( as young warriors) RigVeda glorified Marya ( but not as a tribe or clan ) Which shows the some young male recruited as team made and named themselves Marya "as tribe/ clan" when they gotten separated from rigvedic community Rigvedic Sankrit is oldest not mittanis language
1:20 anything belonging to modern name Kurds is a bit of a mystery!! not just this one! but all other kingdoms!! strange right? but at the same time 40 / 70 million Kurds living in that region! maybe they came from Mars? History does not tell the truth!! either all belong to "Persia" or other nations! the only way Kurds can get their rights is if they get their own state. The question is why everything is suddenly a mystery when we talk about Sumer, Kassite, Gotian or other powerful kingdoms in that area! Even the Median and Sassanid empires changed to Persia! Why so many historians against "Kurds" what are the benefits for others who are not our neighbors?

Isn't the name Artatama quite similar in structure to Old Persian names like Ardaxshathra? Or is it just a coincidence? also weird that Artatama II was so pro-Assyrian when the Assyrians razed his capital
With a revision of Egypt chronology all those high dates fell into their real place and we find out that this history he is narrating belong to a much close place in history and very much the history that we all know with Neo-Chaldean, Assyrians, Armenians, Egyptians, Medes and even the Scythian. People love to believe speculative lies and to reject what is a more simple truth.
descendants of mittani didn't live in India because Mittani used post Vedic Sanskrit and Vedic people used earlier Vedic Sanskrit Yazidi kurds are descendants of Mittani, they are connected with Vedic people but They are not Older as vedic people *Vedic Sanskrit is more complex than mittani Sanskrit* because mittani language is similar with post-vedic Sanskrit And what is jatt doing here, jatt is not Even mentioned in any mittani or rigvedic inscription.

Fertile lands of Mitanni is flat and hard to defend. Instead of getting decimated by the enemy they would better share the riches of the land. Artatama II’s flip-flopping could be because if this as opposed to a character flaw.
Their population mixed with newcomers like Hittites,Assyrians are Arameans and with time assumed other cultures and languages. The same happened with the Sumerians gradually after Sargon and with Elamites after The Medes & Persians.
things would have gotten more confusing cause hey also spoke indo-ayran Language, It seems the names mittani names got bit butchered, due to English not having proper pronounes, Kinda like how persian kings name got butcherd by Greeks
History of the Fertile Crescent gets a little monotonous after a while with various tribes and peoples ascending and then declining and dominated by the next group moving in and repeating the same pattern all over again. Noting any one particular cycle seems not unlike singling out any one particular rush hour out of a year of urban traffic.

It is said that in the past, perhaps thousands of years ago, warriors or soldiers practiced war in our city. And because of this, the name of our city is known as Heru. Fars still could not change the names of several villages in our city. The name of the village is Burgehim. And the village is Berga. And the village is Warsava. Of course, these are the names of several villages out of hundreds of villages in our city. Are these names not familiar? About two hundred years ago, the government spread the Kurds in our villages at the request of the British. Although more than ten villages now speak Kurdish. But some Kurdish-speaking families settled in all our villages. It is clear that it was to change our race. Of course, this action has also happened to the Turkish-speaking cities of Iraq. Now it is known that the Kurds in Iranian Kurdistan have Arab roots. Maybe they have a few percent of the Indian race and the yellow race. Did the English want to change our race to Arabic? What made England want to change our race. At the present time, Fars wants to change our race to Arabic. Because the Persian race is also of the Arab race. Now, in the map, the name berga has been changed to the word "flag" in Arabic or Farsi. If you look at the rb haplogroup map, the path is the same. When you and others moved to Europe you mixed with Northern European races or in Europe. And new races were born. The Indo-European race is also a lie. There is no rb in Fars, Iran, nor in India. Even the Persian language is Arabic. The Persians presented themselves as pure German. And they despised everyone. Now it is known that the Persians are of the Arabian Arabian race. If it wasn't for genetic science, Fars would still identify itself as German. Almost 30 years ago, I went to Kerman. Almost 40 people had gathered in a spring near the village. I was stoned for being a Mongol. And if one person in this crowd looked like a European, it was me. But the villagers thought they were Germans. Still, those who did not take a genetic test assume that they are German. The new German race consists of several European races. It is completely different from the German race of 3000 years ago. All races changed. There are still people who do not understand why the race of Turkey and Greece is different from 3000 thousand years ago. The Ottoman government ruled dozens of Arab countries and the people of these countries came to the center of the Ottoman government to have a better life. It is clear that the race will change. The breeds that are now in Europe are a new breed.When you and others moved to Europe you mixed with Northern European races or in Europe. And new races were born. Warriors who trained in Heru It is said that these warriors practiced war in the city of Heru from the time of Alexander the Great. There are names of some of our villages in Austria, Poland and Spain. The people of our city are called heruli. If the route of haplogroup rb is determined correctly. Western European people moved to Europe from Azerbaijan or South Caucasus 5 thousand years ago. And it seems that Heruli warriors maintained contact with Europe until 1500 years. I searched the names of some neighboring villages. One is close to the name of the capital of Poland. There is a name of a village in Germany and France or Austria which is almost close to burgehim. And the name Berga is a city in Germany. Probably in Spain too. The name of our city is Heru. The people of the city are called heruli. The name of a village is berga. We call the people of the village Bergali. And the name of the village is burgehim. We call the village people burgehimli. For the people of each village, li is added to the name of the village. In the past, we introduced ourselves in other cities of Heruli country. But in the last few decades, the Persians have changed the name of our city to Khalkhal. We are forced to introduce ourselves as Khalkhali so that our city can be recognized by others who know it by the name of Khalkhali, that is, in this Persian government that is trying to change the language and names of our cities and villages. For almost 20 years, the Persians used the word Khalkhal as the coldest city in the country. But maybe for almost 20 years, the name of our city is no longer in the weather news. It means that suddenly the cold has left our city forever.
Nisebin, the Kurdish city where I currently live, was also the capital of the Mittani State for a while.

Dear Cy:
I'm always deeply impressed with your erudition and scholarship, and the deft way you present all this fragmentary and rather murky history.
I would love it if you made a video on the various competing chronologies of the Bronze Age. I know that there are different schools of thought on this topic, and I'd love to hear what you, someone I see as an expert, thinks.
I'd also love to see a video from you on just how incredibly difficult it was for scholars to painstakingly piece together a "history" of this region, given that there are really no contemporary written histories as we know them, and given the obscurity, ambiguity, and fragmentary nature of the source material.

@@yilmaz4422 Medians and Mittani are ancestors of Kurds. Not Hurrians. Hurrians were J2. That is only higly active Northern Iraq. R1a is the main haplogroup of Kurds.
I wonder why you didn’t mention that when the Hurrian Kingdom became the Mittani Kingdom, the Hurrian speaking people of it became ruled by an invading (probably) elite that used a version of the Indo-European Vedic or Sanskrit language also known from India. Which in itself is a mysterious circumstance. It seems that this elite used not only Vedic or something akin to that as an official language, but also revered some of the Gods from that tradition.
Hi, and thanks for your insightful comment. Yes, that is a theory and it's backed up by evidence, such as the Indo-European names of various rulers (Artatama, Tushratta, Shaushtatar, etc). Also, the Indo-Iranian god Mithra has also been mentioned in some Hurrian texts...in one article I even read that Ahura Mazda was mentioned in a treaty. This is all extremely interesting. However, I didn't focus on that theory or the Indo-European connection for a couple of reasons; one is that the program was getting too long. I really wish I could discuss all that I want in these videos but then they'd take forever to put together. The other main reason is that despite the evidence, this theory is still quite controversial among scholars, at least that's what I gathered from my research. I didn't want to go too deep into that in a basic, overview video about the Mitanni. However, after researching it more, it may be a good topic for another future video.
Thanks though for bringing this up. I appreciate it and am honestly, absolutely thrilled that there are people like you out there who really are into this stuff. More to come soon!
Hi Cy. Sorry for the delay. One is busy with other things sometimes. Thanks for your clear answer. I always thought that there were more sources for that, like cuneiform in an Indo European language from Mittani. I suppose I was mistaken about that. Thanks a lot for the clarification!

@@Popperite Mitanni cylinder seals show many Indo-Aryan motifs such as the Brahmani/Zebu Bull, the Bhodi/Ficus religiosa/sacred fig tree, a goddess holding a mirror which was a regular practice found in many Indo-Aryn cultures, also we find images of fish which could point to the story of Manu and the flood where Brahma or Vishnu appeared as a large fish to save mankind and we have other seals from Mohenjo-Daro in Nuzi similar to Mitanni seals.
As you probably know Indian god's names appear in a peace treaty between Mitanni and Hatti, such as Mithra, Varuna, Indra and Nasatyas also, many Sanskrit words where found in a horse training manual this is not to mention that Mitanni kings had names with Sanskrit suffixes.
For some reason or another, this area and time period of northern Mesopotamia has a dark history - including the Kasittes - and one wonders if there is a deliberate effort to keep it so because of the controversial issue of Ibraham's name which is similar to Brahma thus pointing the figure that Ibraham could have been or was a descendant of and Indo-Aryan tribe/group that moved to the southern Levant for reasons such as population pressure due to wars.

@@zagrepcanin82 Hurrian is a non-Indo-European language. Croatian is a Slavonic and therefore Indo-European language. The names of some Mittanian gods and kings are Indic. While Indic languages are Indo-European it is not ancestral to Slavonic. If we believe that the Croats were originally a Sarmatian elite imposed on a Slavonic population or even a Slavicised Sarmatian tribe, it would still make their ancestry part of the Iranian, rather than the Indic branch of the Indo-Iranian family.

Origin
Little is known of the origins, material culture or language of the Guti, as contemporary sources provide few details and no artifacts have been positively identified.[5] As the Gutian language lacks a text corpus, apart from some proper names, its similarities to other languages are impossible to verify. The names of Gutian-Sumerian kings suggest that the language was not closely related to any languages of the region, including Sumerian, Akkadian, Hurrian, Hittite and Elamite.
W. B. Henning suggested that the different endings of the king names resembled case endings in the Tocharian languages, a branch of Indo-European known from texts found in the Tarim Basin (in the northwest of modern China) dating from the 6th to 8th centuries CE, making Gutian the earliest documented Indo-European language. He further suggested that they had subsequently migrated to the Tarim.[6] Gamkrelidze and Ivanov explored Henning's suggestion, as possibly supporting their proposal of an Indo-European Urheimat in the Near East.[7][8] However, most scholars reject the attempt to connect two groups of languages, Gutian and Tocharian, that were separated by more than two millennia.[9]
Tocharian theory
In a posthumously-published article, W. B. Henning suggested that the different endings of the king names resembled case endings in the Tocharian languages, a branch of Indo-European known from texts found in the Tarim Basin (in the northwest of modern China) dating from the 6th to 8th centuries CE.[5] Henning also compared the name Guti with Kuči, the native name of the Tocharian city of Kucha, and with the name of the Yuezhi, pastoral nomads described in Chinese records as living to the east of the Tarim in the 2nd century BCE,[5] although the latter name is usually reconstructed with a *ŋʷ- initial in Old Chinese.[6] He also compared Tukriš, the name of neighbours of the Guti, with the name twγry found in Old Turkish manuscripts from the early 9th century CE and thought to refer to the Tocharians.[5] Gamkrelidze and Ivanov explored Henning's suggestion as possible support for their proposal of an Indo-European Urheimat in the Near East.[7][8] However, most scholars reject the attempt to compare languages separated by more than two millennia.[9]

Very good! Have you seen anything about the development of steel in Mitanni during the Bronze Age? Supposedly Tutankhamen's dagger was crafted in Mitanni from a meteorite. Successful experience with rare meteor iron may have been part of the development of steel in the region prior to the iron age.

Hi, thanks for stopping by! To be honest I'm not 100% sure of the specifics, though what you see on the cover is reportedly from the official seal of king Shaustartar. The eight-pointed figure could be a star but I've also read that it represents the sun. I'll try to find the exact symbolism for you and if I do will let you know. I'm glad you commented on this... makes me think about it more too.
@@HistorywithCy Thank you for the courteous reply, "Cy". After looking at your depiction of the "Mitanni Symbol", I realized (or imagined that I realized) that the overall design is in the Carry Standard Form of the Steppe Nomads. The shaft shape, protruding downward from the circled star, or sun image suggests this to me. The curved bow reinforces this impression. Makes me think that the Mitanni were once Steppe Nomads. But it is interesting that "King Shaustartar" retained the elements of this symbol, even though the "Mitanni" had been building large settled communities for a long time. Are there images of Mitanni riding Horses?

Also there is a connection between Abraham and the Mitanni as well. For example the 5 Books of Moses,”our God is one” uses the Sanskrit word for one, Ekad.
I must say the most interesting people in that region from the Bronze Age period, also i am really interested in Hittites, enigmatic i think the Mittani were Indo European speaking people who ruled over Hurrians who were mostly indigenous population, i think Kurds are related to Hurrians and even to older Gutians, but Mittani were different to hem and were more related to Hittite people.
Yeah, the Hittites or Egyptians (I forget which one but I think it was the Hittites) used to specifically call the "Hurrian Kingdom of the Mitanni" though there is a lot of evidence that at least the ruling class were of Indo-European descent, mostly due to their names, perhaps the use of chariots and the names of some Indo-European gods that were included in some of their treaties.

Hi again, hope you enjoyed the video! In a few cases, yes, though the transition may not be very linear and it depends on the community. After the spread of first Christianity and then Islam, the break with these ancient religions was pretty definite, but often some of the rituals of these older religions remained, they were just put into a new Christian or Islamic context, with their original meanings lost. I'll see if I can find a good book or chapter from a book on this to pass along to you...it's an interesting topic that I myself would also like to learn more about.

You make awsome representations
For some of the people who are trying to claim as being directly descendant from Hurrian is pretty funny, the Hurrians were a language-isolate (Hurro-Urartian, Anatolian language) which is very different from Kurdish, a Northwest Iranic language, and the Hurrians were split between the north (Hayas/Armenia) and the south (Assyria), there are no records of anything Hurrian in the Neo-Assyrian empire (911-609 BC), as they've been assimilated centuries prior, especially starting around 1270 BC.
Hurro-urartuan is not an isolated language they are caucasian
No one is saying the Kurds speak the ancient Hurrian language, although there are many words still remaining in the Kurdish language that are Mittani, hurrian, sumerian etc. We are saying that the Hurrians were the ancestors of the present day Kurds as well as Armenians and others but primarily the Kurds. In Kurdish we have these names in different regions even. We believe the name Hurraman which is a Kurdish region in Iran and Iraq are direct descendants of the Hurrians as their language is very different to all the other Kurdish languages. Besides foreigners should not assume something that they have no clue about. It’s like if a Kurd interferes with England’s history but he has never been to England but just read some books. I hope you understand
@@dariusrezai8319 My statement is based on culture, which is why the Kurds state that their ancestors were the Medes, because of Iranian cultural connection, there are no people today that directly descend from the Hurrians or Sumerians, culturally speaking.
What? Assimilated? The Hurrians were one of the most numerous peoples of that time. Mitanni was located partly in the Armenian Highlands, and partly in Mesopotamia. In addition to Mitanni, there was also Kizzuwatna, which was located in the Armenian Highlands. According to modern science, the Hurrians were related to the Urarts and belonged to a special Hurro-Urartian family of languages. The Armenians were formed in the process of the merger of some aboriginal peoples of the Bronze Age (Hurrians, Urarts), as well as Indo-Europeans who came from the Balkans (mainly Luwians), who changed their language to Proto-Armenian for various historical reasons (during the time of the Achaemenid Empire, flies, carriers of the Proto-Armenian, were in power in the Armenian Highlands). Modern genetic research also shows this.
Trying to prove that someone is related to someone or not related to someone based on language is wrong, since the Hurrians have been known in the region since the 3rd millennium BC. I mean that the same Assyrians changed their language, they speak the Aramaic dialect, not Assyrian. And now about the Kurds. According to the official scientific version, the Kurds come from a small people of Cyrtians who inhabited the mountainous regions at the junction of Medes and Persia. Please don't mislead people, check the facts.
@@davidbagratunyan8190 The Hurrians altogether disappeared during the Neo Assyrian empire which is a fact unless you are ignorant of history, and the Assyrians established Aramaic, which is why the Egyptian Demotic, Greeks, and Jews refer to the Aramaic language as "Assyrios" or "Kitab/Ktav Ashuri", which is why the Assyrians used Aramaic to expand, Assyria was a bilingual nation, the monarchy set Akkadian and Aramaic as official languages of the Assyrian court, as well the kings, generals, people of the heartland etc.. were all fluent in Aramaic and native Aramaic speakers, the period of Old Aramaic inscriptions were also found in the Assyrian heartland, this means that the Assyrians were writing in Aramaic centuries before the Medo-Persians were writing in Old Persian cuneiform.

Mittani hurrian Empire is Indo iranian Indo Aryan Empire their names similar with Sanskrit name such Tushrath - dasharath
Saushtatar- sasasttra
Mittani is solar Dynasty who worship
Solar god mithra
Also called Surian/Hurrian
Syria name comes from Suria
Hittite also called Hattusa/Satyasa also a Aryan Dynasty
I wonder if the Mitanni language is closer to Vedic Sanskrit or Ancient Nuristani as Mitanni came before even Vedic Sanskrit, much like Ancient Nuristani, but through linguistic analysis Mitanni shares more in language and religion with the Vedic people. Interesting thought
Mittanis language is post Vedic ,their is no rigvedic Sankrit word as dasaratha or tusharatta
It found in post Vedic sankrit
, mittanis originally called themselves marya-nuh
Which found in rigveda ( marya ) associated with young male ( as young warriors)
RigVeda glorified Marya ( but not as a tribe or clan )
Which shows the some young male recruited as team made and named themselves Marya "as tribe/ clan" when they gotten separated from rigvedic community
Rigvedic Sankrit is oldest not mittanis language

1:20 anything belonging to modern name Kurds is a bit of a mystery!! not just this one! but all other kingdoms!! strange right? but at the same time 40 / 70 million Kurds living in that region! maybe they came from Mars?
History does not tell the truth!! either all belong to "Persia" or other nations! the only way Kurds can get their rights is if they get their own state.
The question is why everything is suddenly a mystery when we talk about Sumer, Kassite, Gotian or other powerful kingdoms in that area! Even the Median and Sassanid empires changed to Persia! Why so many historians against "Kurds" what are the benefits for others who are not our neighbors? Genetic dna proves that the Kurds are from the Zagros, so they have never been nomadic people! only 4% are Indo-European!
when i first heard about it i started to feel dizzy asi was too shocked that an indo aryan group was residing there in Anatolia,far away from the other indo Aryans here in India(if it would've been the Iranians/other indo Europeans etc i wouldve been less shocked
Mittanis were Indo Aryan Sindis

Isn't the name Artatama quite similar in structure to Old Persian names like Ardaxshathra? Or is it just a coincidence?
also weird that Artatama II was so pro-Assyrian when the Assyrians razed his capital
With a revision of Egypt chronology all those high dates fell into their real place and we find out that this history he is narrating belong to a much close place in history and very much the history that we all know with Neo-Chaldean, Assyrians, Armenians, Egyptians, Medes and even the Scythian. People love to believe speculative lies and to reject what is a more simple truth.

It's decendents in India are found in so many societies one among them is black Smith and another one is jats
descendants of mittani didn't live in India because Mittani used post Vedic Sanskrit and Vedic people used earlier Vedic Sanskrit
Yazidi kurds are descendants of Mittani, they are connected with Vedic people but They are not Older as vedic people
*Vedic Sanskrit is more complex than mittani Sanskrit* because mittani language is similar with post-vedic Sanskrit
And what is jatt doing here, jatt is not Even mentioned in any mittani or rigvedic inscription. It's about history & linguistics study which is related with post vedic Sanskrit
Mitannis are Kurds
The mitany Are kurdish., and the capital of mitany is city of Mardin,

Of course, and soon Sumer, Assyria, and Babylon will become Kurdish. Isn't it funny yourself?
Mitanni was located partly in the Armenian Highlands, and partly in Mesopotamia. In addition to Mitanni, there was also Kizzuwatna, which was located in the Armenian Highlands. According to modern science, the Hurrians were related to the Urarts and belonged to a special Hurro-Urartian family of languages. The Armenians were formed in the process of the merger of some aboriginal peoples of the Bronze Age (Hurrians, Urarts), as well as Indo-Europeans who came from the Balkans (mainly Luwians), who changed their language to Proto-Armenian for various historical reasons (during the time of the Achaemenid Empire, flies, carriers of the Proto-Armenian, were in power in the Armenian Highlands). Modern genetic research also shows this.
Trying to prove that someone is related to someone or not related to someone based on language is wrong, since the Hurrians have been known in the region since the 3rd millennium BC. I mean that the same Assyrians changed their language, they speak the Aramaic dialect, not Assyrian. And now about the Kurds. According to the official scientific version, the Kurds come from a small people of Cyrtians who inhabited the mountainous regions at the junction of Medes and Persia. Why do you constantly invent something without proof? Is it difficult to take a history book?
Fertile lands of Mitanni is flat and hard to defend. Instead of getting decimated by the enemy they would better share the riches of the land. Artatama II’s flip-flopping could be because if this as opposed to a character flaw.
What happened to the hurrians they have any Descendants today
yes. northern india and pakistan.
Their population mixed with newcomers like Hittites,Assyrians are Arameans and with time assumed other cultures and languages.
The same happened with the Sumerians gradually after Sargon and with Elamites after The Medes & Persians.
things would have gotten more confusing cause hey also spoke indo-ayran Language,
It seems the names mittani names got bit butchered, due to English not having proper pronounes,
Kinda like how persian kings name got butcherd by Greeks
Mlonly mitanni elite were indo aryans . Majority of population were hurricane their culture was hurrian
History of the Fertile Crescent gets a little monotonous after a while with various tribes and peoples ascending and then declining and dominated by the next group moving in and repeating the same pattern all over again. Noting any one particular cycle seems not unlike singling out any one particular rush hour out of a year of urban traffic. Wish someone would uncover some greater redeeming value to all this large scale turf wars.
Kurdistan one day make mittani proud. Hell to our enemy

but how could MITTANIS speak Sanskrit?
They did not use sankrist .
The Mittani population spoke Hurrian but their rulling elite originally had a different culture,religion and language.Their elite language was closer but not the same as sankrist.
It is similar to the case with old persian, where is some words are very similar and almost identical to sankrist (but with some differences).
All three are not original but came from indo-iranian .

Mitanni = kurds
Nechirvan Selim
They were Indic(Sanskrit peoples),have nothing to do with kurds.
While the Mitanni kings were Indo-Aryan, they used the language of the local people, which was at that time a non-Indo-European language, Hurrian. Their sphere of influence is shown in Hurrian place names, personal names and the spread through Syria and the Levant of a distinct pottery type.

Mitanni is porto-armenian. Moreover, I have a direct Y chromosome link to Ahmenhotep III, Akhenaten, his son King Tut and Ramses II according to National Geographic's Genographic Project. I am neither Kurdish or Iranian. My grandparents are from Marash and Urfa at Portasar or in gibberish Gobekli Tepe.
Well depends what haplogroup Mittani were. Since they spoke an Indo-Aryan language like Vedic Sandscrit then they most likely R1a Z93 like rest of Northern India.
This haplogroup has the second highest frequency In the kurdish population.
@@matrixxx3662 The Armenian Haplogroup has had no add mixtures since the Bronze Age and are considered by anthropologists and geneticists as "Walking Fossils." The Mitanni by virtue of their location of ancestry can only be Armenian as evidenced by the birthplace of my grandparents in Marash and Urfa and my DNA being of Royal Egyptian DNA (Ramses II, Amenhotep III, Akhenaten and King Tut according to National Geographic's Genographic Project).
@@vaheohanian8418 75% King Tut traces back to British people as well. But Mittani were an Indo Aryan speaking people. I'm not saying you are lying. Your maternal haplogroup traces back to them. Because they were R1a carriers and not R1b. However it is true that the egytian mummes had R1b carriers. But not R1a. So Mittani could not have been R1b because they were hindus. That is whag I have read about anyway that they were predominantly R1a. In the Riga Veda they describe them as tall and blond. and blond hair is was spread by R1a tribes while red hair spread by R1b. You are egyptian Royalty blood R1b but thats different from Mittani who were R1a.
@@vaheohanian8418 You need read about Iranologist Gernot Windfuhr who compared the ancient Aryans with Eastern Europeans and Russians. It makes sense as they have highest frequency of blonds as well and predominantly R1a.
@@vaheohanian8418 Nazi Germany used kidnapp a lot of Eastern Europeans children especially poles or ukranians because they didnt have enough blonds themselves lol.
The Yezidis are are most likely their descendants as they are also the only ones In Middle East who still follow hindu customs.
Mitanni are the Kurdish civilization.

If you are looking for heruli. The name of our city is Heru. The people of the city are called Heruli. Heru city is located in Azarbaijan, Iran. But the Persians changed the name of our city to Khalkhal. Of course, the Persians are trying to change the names of all our cities and villages. It is said that in the past, perhaps thousands of years ago, warriors or soldiers practiced war in our city. And because of this, the name of our city is known as Heru. Fars still could not change the names of several villages in our city. The name of the village is Burgehim. And the village is Berga. And the village is Warsava. Of course, these are the names of several villages out of hundreds of villages in our city. Are these names not familiar? About two hundred years ago, the government spread the Kurds in our villages at the request of the British. Although more than ten villages now speak Kurdish. But some Kurdish-speaking families settled in all our villages. It is clear that it was to change our race. Of course, this action has also happened to the Turkish-speaking cities of Iraq. Now it is known that the Kurds in Iranian Kurdistan have Arab roots. Maybe they have a few percent of the Indian race and the yellow race. Did the English want to change our race to Arabic? What made England want to change our race. At the present time, Fars wants to change our race to Arabic. Because the Persian race is also of the Arab race. Now, in the map, the name berga has been changed to the word "flag" in Arabic or Farsi. If you look at the rb haplogroup map, the path is the same. When you and others moved to Europe you mixed with Northern European races or in Europe. And new races were born. The Indo-European race is also a lie. There is no rb in Fars, Iran, nor in India. Even the Persian language is Arabic. The Persians presented themselves as pure German. And they despised everyone. Now it is known that the Persians are of the Arabian Arabian race. If it wasn't for genetic science, Fars would still identify itself as German. Almost 30 years ago, I went to Kerman. Almost 40 people had gathered in a spring near the village. I was stoned for being a Mongol. And if one person in this crowd looked like a European, it was me. But the villagers thought they were Germans. Still, those who did not take a genetic test assume that they are German. The new German race consists of several European races. It is completely different from the German race of 3000 years ago. All races changed. There are still people who do not understand why the race of Turkey and Greece is different from 3000 thousand years ago. The Ottoman government ruled dozens of Arab countries and the people of these countries came to the center of the Ottoman government to have a better life. It is clear that the race will change. The breeds that are now in Europe are a new breed.When you and others moved to Europe you mixed with Northern European races or in Europe. And new races were born. Warriors who trained in Heru It is said that these warriors practiced war in the city of Heru from the time of Alexander the Great. There are names of some of our villages in Austria, Poland and Spain. The people of our city are called heruli. If the route of haplogroup rb is determined correctly. Western European people moved to Europe from Azerbaijan or South Caucasus 5 thousand years ago. And it seems that Heruli warriors maintained contact with Europe until 1500 years. I searched the names of some neighboring villages. One is close to the name of the capital of Poland. There is a name of a village in Germany and France or Austria which is almost close to burgehim. And the name Berga is a city in Germany. Probably in Spain too. The name of our city is Heru. The people of the city are called heruli. The name of a village is berga. We call the people of the village Bergali. And the name of the village is burgehim. We call the village people burgehimli. For the people of each village, li is added to the name of the village. In the past, we introduced ourselves in other cities of Heruli country. But in the last few decades, the Persians have changed the name of our city to Khalkhal. We are forced to introduce ourselves as Khalkhali so that our city can be recognized by others who know it by the name of Khalkhali, that is, in this Persian government that is trying to change the language and names of our cities and villages. For almost 20 years, the Persians used the word Khalkhal as the coldest city in the country. But maybe for almost 20 years, the name of our city is no longer in the weather news. It means that suddenly the cold has left our city forever.
