Wasashatta, also spelled WasaĊĦatta, was a king of the
Hurrian kingdom of
Mittani ca. the early thirteenth century BC.
Reign
Like his father
Shattuara, Wasashatta was an
vassal. He revolted against his master
Adad-nirari I (c. 1295-1263 BC (
short chronology)) and sought help in vain from the
Hittites. The Assyrians crushed his revolt and devastated Hanigalbat. The royal family was captured and brought to
Assur and Wasashatta was never heard of again.
