Sam'al
Sam'al ( Hittite: Yadiya) originally founded as a Hittite colony from 1725-1200 BC. It then emerged as post Hittite, Aramaean Principality, following the collapse of the Hittite Empire in 1200 BC. In 940 BC it became a Kingdom until 680 BC when the state came under control of the Assyrian Empire. It is located at Zincirli Höyük in the Anti-Taurus Mountains of modern Turkey's Gaziantep Province.
