Tudhaliya

Tudḫaliya is the name of several Hittite kings or royals. It is not clear how many kings bore that name, and numbering schemes vary from source to source.

  • Tudḫaliya (sometimes called Tudḫaliya I) is deduced from his early placement in a later offering list as a hypothetical pre-Empire king who might have reigned in the early 17th century BC.
  • Tudḫaliya I (sometimes considered identical with the following, as Tudḫaliya I/II ), ruled in the mid-15th century BC, son of Kantuzzili.
  • Tudḫaliya II (sometimes considered identical with the preceding, as Tudḫaliya I/II or renumbered as Tudḫaliya I ), ruled at the start of the 14th century BC, father-in-law of Arnuwanda I.
  • Tudḫaliya III (sometimes renumbered as Tudḫaliya II ), in the early 14th century BC, the son of Arnuwanda I and predecessor of Šuppiluliuma I.
  • Tudḫaliya the Younger (sometimes numbered as Tudḫaliya III ), in the mid-14th century BC, the son of Tudḫaliya III, he probably never reigned.
  • Tudḫaliya IV (very rarely renumbered as Tudḫaliya III ), ruled around 1230 BC, the son of Ḫattušili III.
  • Tudḫaliya V possibly ruled around 1180 BC, perhaps the son of Šuppiluliuma II.
  • Tudḫaliya, Neo-Hittite king(s) of Carchemish, fl. c. 1100 BC
