Urhilina
Urhilina, called Irhuleni in Assyrian records, was king of Hamath in the mid-9th century BCE. He joined Hadadezer of Aram-Damascus and Ahab of Israel in the coalition that fought the Assyrian king Shalmaneser III at the Battle of Qarqar in 853 BCE, and the coalition resisted further Assyrian campaigns for several years. His Luwian hieroglyphic inscriptions record building works at Hamath.
