He might be a successor of Telipinu as his son-in-law,[1][2] after the reign of Tahurwaili.[3]

Family

Alluwamna married Harapšeki, daughter of Telipinu. Their son was Hantili II.

Reign

Alluwamna's reign is attested by a seal (SBo I.86) which identifies him with the title "Great King". As a son-in-law of Telepinu (married to his first-rank daughter Harapšeki), Alluwamna would have been first in line for the throne. However, Tahurwaili banished him and his wife to Malitashkur[4] (see KUB 26:77), and so it is possible that he did not come to the throne right after Telepinu's death, but rather after the reign of Tahurwaili, first cousin of Telipinu[3] One text of Alluwamna records the granting of land to his son and likely successor Hantili II.[5]
