Note 143 — Chapter VI · ASIA MINOR

Labawa, or Labbaya, for whom see the next chapter. A revised transcript of his letter in Arzawan (Hittite) is given by Knudtzon, Die zwei Arzawa-Briefe, pp. 38–40. The introductory paragraph should read: Ata-mu kît Labbaya ... memis-ta Uan-wa-nnas iskhani-tta-ra atari-ya ueni.—“To my lord says Labbaya ... thy servant of Uan (a district west of Aleppo); seven times I prostrate myself.” In other letters Labbaya is called prince of Rukhizzi, the Rokhe’s-na of the treaty between Ramses II. and the Hittites.
