Common card · No. 446262

Hayasa(𒆳𒌷𒄩𒄿𒀀𒊭)-Azzi(𒆳𒌷𒀀𒍣) or Azzi-Hayasa (Hittite: URUḪaiaša-, Armenian: Հայասա) was a Late Bronze Age confederation in the Armenian Highlands and/or Pontic region of Asia Minor. The Hayasa-Azzi confederation was in conflict with the Hittite Empire in the 14th century BCE, leading up to the collapse of Hatti around 1190 BCE. It has long been thought that the Hayasa-Azzi have played a significant role in the ethnogenesis of Armenians.
