Everything about Barattarna totally explained
Barattarna, also spelled Parattarna, was a king of the
Hurrian kingdom of
Mitanni in the fifteenth century BC. He may also be identical to a king called Parsatatar.
None of his own records have yet been found, but his name is mentioned in a record from
Nuzi dated to "when king Barattarna died and was cremated". More information is included in the biography of Idrimi of
Alalakh. Barattarna ruled over the Hurrians and made Idrimi his vassal.
Mitanni in his time probably extended as far as
Arrapha in the east.
Barattarna may have been the Mitannian king the Egyptian Pharaoh
Thutmose III encountered by the river
Euphrates in his campaign of year 1447 BC. This can however only be deduced by comparing the
chronology of ancient Egypt and Mitanni at a later date and working back the figures.
