Kirta
text:
Kirta was a legendary Hurrian king in Mesopotamia. He lived in approximately 1500 BC and is traditionally thought to have founded the dynasty of Mitanni, though epigraphic support for that is thin. A seal was found reading "Šuttarna, son of Kirta, king of Maitani." He may have reigned around 1540 BC as per middle chronology. His offsprings included Shuttarna I and Barattarna.
Mitanni's rise under Kirta might have been facilitated by the disappearance of the Babylonian kingdom.
