Niqmi-Epuh, also given as Niqmepa (reigned - Middle chronology ) was the king of Yamhad (Halab) succeeding his father Yarim-Lim II ==Reign== Little of Aleppo has been excavated by archaeologists, knowledge about Niqmi-Epuh comes from tablets discovered at Alalakh, his existence is confirmed by a number of tablets with his seal on its envelope Yarim-Lim king of Alalakh, uncle of Yarim-Lim II and vassal of Yamhad died during Niqmi-Epuh reign and was succeeded by his son Ammitakum, who started to assert Alalakh semi-independence. The tablets mentions Niqmi-Epuh votive status which he dedicated to Hadad and placed it in that Deity Temple, tablet AlT *11 informs of his return from Nishin, a place not known before but certainly inside the territory of Yamhad because the tablet seems to refer to travel and not a military campaign. Niqmi-Epuh most celebrated deed was his conquest of the town Arazik near Charchemish, the fall of this city was important to the extent of being suitable for dating several legal cases. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Niqmi-Epuh」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
