[QUOTE]Originally posted by Clyde Winters: [QB] The Hyksos were Kushites namely Hatti, that had settled much of Palestine and Anatolia. During the Fifth Dynasty of Egypt (2563-2423), namely during the reign of Sahure there is mention of the Tehenu people. Sahure referred to the Tehenu leader “Hati Tehenu” . These Hatiu, correspond to the Hatti speaking people of Anatolia. The Hatti/Hurrian people often referred to themselves as Kashkas or Kaskas. During the Old Kingdom the Kushites were also called[b][i] heqa khasut[/b][/i], "ruler(s) of the foreign countries". Hattians lived in Anatolia. They worshipped Kasku and Kusuh. They were especially prominent in the Pontic mountains. Their sister nation in the Halys Basin were the Kaska tribes. The Kaska and Hattians share the same names for gods, along with personal and place names . The Kaska had a strong empire which was never defeated by the Hittites. [b] The hyksos according to Bright, John (2000). "A History of Israel". Westminster John Knox Press ( p.60 ); and Drews, Robert (1 October 1994). "The Coming of the Greeks: Indo-European Conquests in the Aegean and the Near East". Princeton University Press(p.254 ) included Hurrians/Hattians. [/b] The heqa khasut, "ruler(s) of the foreign countries" or Hyksos/ Hykussos, were Hattians or Kashkas. in otherwords they were Kushites. This is obvious in their name [i][b]khasut[/i][/b] which corresponds to[i][b] Kaska[/i][/b]. The name[i][b] heqa khasut [/i][/b], was first used by the Old Kingdom to refer to the Kushite Nubian chieftains. That is why the Hyksos / Hykussos expected the Kushites in Nubia to support them in their war with the Egyptians. quote: Carnarvon Tablet I, and mentions the interception and capture of a courier bearing a message from Apepi at Avaris to his ally, the ruler of the Kingdom of Kush (modern Sudan), requesting the latter's urgent support against the threat posed by Kamose's activities against both their kingdoms. See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyksos The Hyksos were allies with the Kushites in Nubia due to their common origins. The Hatti controlled the city state of Kussara, before they conquered Egypt. Kussara was situated in southern Anatolia. [/QB][/QUOTE]
