Yeni Asurca Belgelerde Geçen Amēdi Şehri

Year 2012, Volume: 52 Issue: 2, 1 - 9, 01.01.2012

Abstract

M.Ö. I. Binyıl başlarından itibâren Suriye’de, Fırat vadisinde ve Mezopotamya’nın güneyindeki bereketli topraklarda beylikler kurmaya başlayan Arāmiler, Diyarbakır bölgesinde de başşehri Amēdi olan Bīt-Zamāni beyliğini kurmuşlardır. Arāmî beylikleri, dönemin önemli gücü Asur İmparatorluğu için ciddi bir tehdit oluşturmuştur. Bu nedenle Asur kralları, Arāmî kabileleri üzerine seferler düzenlemişlerdir. Düzenlenen bu seferler bir kayıt altında, kralların yıllıklarında yer almıştır. Yeni Asur devri kral yıllıkları, dönemin siyasî ve coğrafî yapısını aydınlatmakta kullanılan en güvenilir kayıtlardır. Çalışma konumuz olan Amēdi şehri, kral yıllıkları, Yeni Asurca mektuplar ve kitâbeler temel alınarak aydınlatılmaya çalışılmıştır.

The City “Amēdi” in Neo-Assyrian Texts

Year 2012, Volume: 52 Issue: 2, 1 - 9, 01.01.2012

Abstract

From the begining of the first milennium BC I. Aramean which had begun to establish principalities in the Syria, Euphrates valley and the fertile lands in the south of Mesopotamia, also established Bīt-Zamāni principality whose capital was the city of Amēdi in the Diyarbakır region. Aramean principalities constituted a serious threat to the Assyrian Empire which was an important power of the period. For this reason, the kings of Assyrian organized expeditions to Aramean tribes. These expeditions were mentioned under a record in the annuals of kings. The annuals of Neo-Assyrian kings are the most reliable records to explain the structure of political and geographical structure of the period. This study aims to explore the city of Amēdi in the light of the NeoAssyrian annuals of kings, letters and inscriptions.
