Kingdom of Alzi and Mushkians in the Assyrian texts

Elazig (ancient Ashzi, Alzi) one of the oldest political centers of Eastern Anatolia. In Elazig have made strategic routes to the central regions of Anatolia. In the XIII.-IX. centuries BC Alzi was in the area interest of the kings of Assyria. Mushkians populations of Alzi and neighborhood kingdom Purulumzi refused to pay tribute to the Assyrians. In 1113 BC, the King of Assyria, I Tiqlet-pileser, had to carry out a military campaign against them. Some researchers agree that the Mushkians were migrating from Southeast Europe and established kingdom of Frygia in the Central Anatolia. They think that the Frygian king Midas (in Herodotus "History"), and Mita, the king of Mushkians, are the same person and old name of the kingdom in Assyrian text was read as "pu-ru-kuz-zu". In fact, this word should be read as "pu-ru-lum-zi" (on hurrian "purli" "home"). I. M. Diakonoff writes that the Mushkians came to Alzi and Purulumzi through the Euphrates River. However, there is not enough room or space for the restoration of the expression "Swim in the Euphrates". The main purpose of ？. M. Diakonoff’s scientifically groundless theory is to describe the people of Mushkians as "proto-armenians".Probably, the Mushkians came to Anatolia from the Rānija Plain (Northeast of Iraq). In the XVIIIth century BC, in the Kakmium ruled Muskave ("Mushkian"). This Kingdom was first recorded in the texts of Ebla. The king of Kakmium Banana, with the kings of Lullubum, Kutium and Turukku, was joined a military coalition against the Agade. In the XVIIth century BC Kakmians fought against the I. Shamshi-Adad, Turukkeans, and Hammurabi. Probably mushkians talked on hurrians. The names of the Kings of Alzi (Antaratli, Ehli-Teshub, Giridadu) originate from Hurrians. Subsequently, III. Salmanasar joined Alzi to the Assyrian Province of Kutmuhi (in the Tur-Abdin mountains), and Minua joined Purulumzi to the Urartu
