 | | Mitanni was a hereditary monarchy, supposedly Hurrian-speaking, and certainly the Hurrian language was used by them in their writings. |  | | The Urartian federation would thus be nothing mare than a new Hurrian formation which arose immediately following, and perhaps because of, the destruction of Mitanni in the ninth century BC. |  | | This state, as I have already indicated, I believe to have been a basically Indo-European polity. |

 | | Although Yuaa was a priest of the age-old Egyptian fertility-god, Min, he was a foreigner "from North Syria" or, to be more precise, from the Vedic Mitanni Kingdom.During this time in Egyptian history, the ruling aristocracy of Egypt,including the king, were of mixed Egyptian and Mittani ancestry. |  | | Scholars are not sure whether Queen Tiy's mother, Tuau or Tuaa, who, according to most scholars, was of royal descent, was a full- blooded Egyptian or partly or wholly Mitannian inspite of her Egyptian name. |  | | This is evidenced in the various ancient tablets etc. that have been found by archeologists. |

 | | In fact, it was the Kadesh king himself, by unilaterally attempting to halt the Hittite advance southward under the belief that he was acting in the interests of his Egyptian overlord, which forced Suppiluliumas to capture the city. |  | | Furthermore, the Hittite king had also made it clear beforehand that his campaign was directed against Mitanni and its Syrian dependencies only. |  | | While the motivation of the various "great powers" of the region are clear, more specifically, we can examine more specifically the events that ultimately culminated in Egypt's last and best known Battle of Kadesh against the Hittites. |

 | | The Egyptians apparently did not oppose the Mitanni intrusion in the Levant and Pharaoh Amenhotep II reached some kind of understanding with Saustatar. |  | | Under the name of Mitanni, the root of which is probably the Indo-Aryan word for warrior, a Hurrian-speaking state was organized ca1600 with its capital in a place as yet unindentified called Wassukkani or Washshukanni. |  | | The history of the Hurrians, whose last independent state was Urartu (ca800-ca590), is much longer and complex than that of the Mitanni, who after the Assyrian invasion disappear from history, and with them the last vestiges of the Indo-Aryans in the Middle East. |
