Tegarama was a city in Anatolia during the Bronze Age. The city contained a palace, a karum and an Assyrian colony office.〔Veenhof, K.R., Eidem, J., Wäfler, M. ''Annäherungen: the Old Assyrian Period. Mesopotamia'' Saint-Paul, 2008 ISBN 3525534523〕 It was important in terms of trade which included tin, textiles, wool, slaves and wine. The city was inhabited during the Old Assyrian Kingdom and Hittite Empire.〔Bajramovic, Gojko ''Historical Geography of Anatolia in the Old Assyrian Colony Period'' p.133, Museum Tusculanum Press, 2011 ISBN 8763536455〕 The city was sacked by Isuwa during the early reign of Tudhaliya III. During his victorious campaign against Mitanni, Hittite king Suppiluliuma I halted in Tegarama and inspected his forces before attacking and capturing Karkemish.〔Burney, Charles ''Historical Dictionary of the Hittites'' Scarecrow Press, 2004 ISBN 0810865645〕 The exact location of the city in Anatolia is disputed. Oliver Gurney placed Tegarama in Southeast Anatolia. 〔map on inside cover of Gurney, The Hittites, Folio Society edition〕 Others have located it in central Anatolia near the town of Gürün, Sivas about 90 miles (140 km) east of Kanesh. 〔Burney〕〔http://www.hittitemonuments.com/gurun/〕 One theory is that the name of the city was 'moved' to another settlement during the history.〔Bajramovic, p.131〕 The city is sometimes associated with Biblical Togarmah.〔Bajramovic, p. 312〕〔Austerlitz, Eddie ''History of the Ogus'' p.36, 2010, ISBN 1450729347〕〔Srinivasan, Liny ''Desi Words Speak of the Past'' p.175 Author House (2011?), ISBN 146709479X〕 ==References== 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tegarama」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
