Aziru

Aziru was the ruler of Amurru in the fourteenth century BCE and the son of Abdi-Ashirta. Continuing his father's expansion, he took towns on the Levantine coast and isolated Byblos, as the Amarna letters of its king Rib-Hadda record. Summoned to Egypt to explain himself, he later transferred his allegiance to the Hittite king Suppiluliuma I, and his vassal treaty with the Hittites survives.
