Piyassili
Piyassili (also transliterated as ''Piyaššili''; died ca. 1315 BC), also known as Sarri-Kusuh (or ''Šarri-Kušuḫ''), was a Hittite prince and a middle son of King Suppiluliuma I—younger than the heir Arnuwanda II, but older than the eventual successor Mursili II and probably older than the ill-fated Zannanza too. After Suppiluliuma concluded a treaty with Sattiwazza, son of King Tusratta of Mitanni, and married one of his daughters to him, Piyassili led a Hittite army that put Sattiwazza on the throne of Hanigalbat. According to Hittite sources, Piyassili and Sattiwazza crossed the Euphrates at Carchemish, then marched against Irridu, already in Hurrian territory. After having reduced Irridu and Harran, they continued east towards to Wassukanni and perhaps conquered the capital Taite as well.
==Biography==
After Sattiwazza had been made a vassal ruler of Hanigalbat, Suppiluliuma gave to Piyassili the Hurrian name Sarri-Kusuh and the territory of Astata (with the cities of Ekalte, Ahuna and Terqa) and Carchemish, formerly belonging to Hanigalbat. "And all of the cities of the land of Carchemish, Murmurik, Shipri, Mazuwati and Šurun – these fortified cities– I gave to my son."〔Suppililiuma-Shattiwazza treaty, § 13.〕 In fact, the whole former territory of Hanigalbat west of the Euphrates seems to have come under direct Hittite rule and was governed by Piyassili.
When the Egyptians attacked Kadesh, Suppililiuma besieged and retook the town. The people were deported and Suppililiuma made Piyassili governor of that town as well. Still bearing the name "Sarri-Kusuh" Piyashshili came to Mursili's aid in the campaign against Arzawa around 1320 BC. Piyassili then returned to Carchemish.
Piyassili fell ill and died before the ninth year of Mursili II's reign. After his death, a rebellion broke out in Kadesh and Nuhasse. After it had been quelled, Piyassili's son was made king of Carchemish by his uncle Mursili II.
