 Hurrians - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Hurrians spoke an agglutinative language, conventionally called Hurrian, unrelated to neighboring Semitic or Indo-European languages, but clearly related to Urartian — a language spoken about a millennium later in northeastern Anatolia — and possibly, very distantly, to the present-day Northeast Caucasian languages.
Tolstov identified the Hurrians as the founders of Khwarezmia, which he explained as meaning Hurri-Land.
Like most aspects of Hurrian society, their origins are still a mystery.

 Hurrians
The relationship between Hurrian and Subarean has already been mentioned, and the language of the Urartians, who played an important role from the end of the 2nd millennium to the 8th century BC, is likewise closely related to Hurrian.
Still later, during the intermediary "Dark Age," they are supposed to have infiltrated into Cilicia and the adjacent Taurus and Antitaurus regions (Kizzuwatna in 2nd millennium texts).
From Mari came a small number of religious texts; from Bogazköy-Hattusa, literary and religious texts; and from Ugarit, vocabularies belonging to the more "scholarly literature" described above and Hurrian religious texts in Ugaritic alphabetic script.

 Races
The Hurrians were an important ethnic group in the Levant during the 2nd millenium BCE.
There are few native documents pertaining to the Hurrian and Mitanni religion, but much can be inferred from the related Hittite and Ugaritic myths.
However, except for a small principality called Hayasha in the Armenian mountains, the Hurrians as a distinguishable ethnic group disappeared by the end of the 2nd millenium BCE, having been assimilated into the other cultures of the day.

festival as a result...There is a great number of Hurrian gods mentioned in Hittite texts, and many of these are descriptions of cult festivals.
Further, it includes a number of Akkadian gods firmly rooted in most Hurrian pantheons." (Diakonoff, I.M., Evidence on the Ethnic Division of the Hurrians, in: M.A. Morrison and D.I. Owen (Eds.), Studies on the Civilization and Culture of Nuzi and the Hurrians, Eisenbrauns, Winona Lake, Indiana, 1981pp.
"Although hurlili constitutes a linguistic definition, and is basically a self-descriptive term, that corresponded to one in the Mitanni letter itself (hurwohe, hurrohe 'Hurrian'), several scholars went along with Ungnad's suggestion and called the language 'Subarian' after the place name Subartu found in Babylonian (Ungnad 1915, 1923, 1936: 133ff.).

>>Hurrians and Mitannis are the same, earlier they were known as Hurrians and later as Mitannis, and both are foreigners to Anatolia and Mesopotamia, they came from India, and their leaders name is in the Sansikrit language.
The Subartians (who are the ancestors of the Assyrians) are the indiginous people of northern Mesopotamia, and their ancient capital was near Mardin (in Tur-Abdin), maybe that is why Mardin was chosen as the See for the Assyrian Orthododx Patriarchs.
>>There is no relation between the Medes, Gutians and the Hurrians!

 New Societies in Mesopotamia
During the mid-1300s, the pharaoh Amenhotep IV (also known as Akhenaton, or Akhenaten) tried to force his subjects to worship the god Aton, whom he believed was the god of the universe.
And two successive Hurrian kings married their daughters to the Egyptian kings Thutmose IV and Amenhotep III.
The Babylonians translated Sumerian religious writings, and these Babylonian translations influenced the Hurrians and Hittites.

 Hurrians
Relations between the Mitanni and the Egyptians might not always have been friendly, for under Thutmose IV Egypt signed a peace accord with the Mitanni king Artatama (ca1400), a daughter of whom was given in marriage to the Egyptian ruler.
Mitanni can be derived from an Indo-Aryan word meaning "warrior".
There also existed then a Hurrian state of sorts known as Kizzuwatna or Kizuwadna in Cilicia.

 ANISTORITON: Internet Messages
There are very few Semitic names in the texts I have studied, but I am not an expert and might have overlooked some -- A-mur-ra-pi is conspicuous, however.
Many of these comparisons must be taken cum grano salis, for there is also a Maria (a man) in the Alalah texts!
A Titiku is mentioned six times at different places like Tuhul, Zalaki (a Hurrian or substrate place name), and Zulute (Hurrian).

 Hurrians
In the 14th century B.C. an Assyrian revolt against the Mitanni probably led to the destruction of Nuzi.
The Hurrians tribes, who became important in the history and culture of the Middle East and Anatolia,
The northern part of Mesopotamia, the Hurrian heartland, became known as the "Land of the Hurri".
http://idcs0100.lib.iup.edu/WestCivI/hurrians.htm

  
 The Ancient Hurrians
Their origin northeast of Mesopotamia in Caucasia or beyond is inferred from an indirect link between Hurrian and Urartian, both descendants of a common root language (Proto-Hurrian-Urartian) and connected to northeast Caucasian languages.
The Hurrians were a people identified by their non-Semitic, non Indo-European language, Hurrian.
The older eastern sphere encompasses the Hurrian heartland, stretching fromm the region of Lake Van and Lake Urmia in the north to Kirkuk in the south.

Professor Wilhelm is one of the world's principal authorities on Hurrian language and history, and the book is therefore highly authoritative, although written for the general reader.
The Hurrians were one of the principal contributors to ancient Near Eastern civilisation and yet we know far less about their language, history and culture than we do about the Sumerians, Assyrians or Hittites.

 Mythology Footnotes 7
Just as in the Hurrian myth Anu, the god of heaven, is castrated by his son Kumarbi, to be deposed in his turn by the weather god Teshup, so Kronos becomes ruler of the gods after the castration of his father, Uranus, god of heaven, only to be usurped by Zeus, the thunder god".
17: "Ha-zi, Ha-az-ai is the Hurrian name of Mount Sapanu which means 'North'; presumably that is also the meaning of the Hurrian word".
59-60 writes: "There is no doubt about the parallels between the Hurrian myth of succession and the Theogony of Hesiod, the Greek poet living in Boeotia in about 700 B.C..

They infiltrated and occupied a broad arc of fertile farmland stretching from the headwaters of the Habur River to the foothills of the Zagros Mountains.
By about 2400 BCE, Hurrians - people who spoke the Hurrian language - had expanded southward from the highlands of Anatolia.
Hurrians established themselves as rulers of small kingdoms in northern Mesopotamia and Syria.

 Nuzi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It was founded by the Hurrians around 1500 BC.
From about 1500 to 1350 BC Nuzi was located on the outskirts of the Kingdom of Mitannia, a major power in northern Mesopotamia, before being absorbed into the Assyrian Empire.
Nuzi was an ancient city southwest of Kirkuk in modern Iraq, located near the Tigris river.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuzi

  
 Hurrians
From later evidence, we think that they identified themselves as Hurrians.
Only a small number can be so considered, and they seem to have been found only along the narrow strip along the piedmont of the Taurus range (shown in green on the map).
In the early second millennium, Hurrian influence is still visible in the material culture, but political control passes in the hands of the Amorite kings of Mari.

2100 BC: the Hurrians settle in the mountains between Mesopotamia and Anatolia and found the holy city of Urkish
2094 BC: Ur-Nammu dies and is succeeded by Shulgi, who expands the Sumerian empire to Susa and to the north, bordering the Amorites to the west, the Elamites to the east and the Hurrians (Indo-European people) to the north

 Hurrians
El Hurrians habló una vecino lengua aglutinante, llamó convencionalmente a Hurrian, que estaba sin relación Semitic o las idiomas indoeuropeas, pero relacionado a Urartian - una lengua hablada alrededor de un milenio más adelante en Anatolia del noreste - y posiblemente a las idiomas caucásicas nordestales actuales.
El Hurrians se convirtió en al parecer una energía política importante después de ser dominada por una élite de reglas extranjeras.
Tolstov identificó el Hurrians como los fundadores de Khwarezmia, a que él explicó como Hurri-Tierra del significado.
