Abstract :
This paper discusses the identity of King Masaurhisas known from the PORSUK Hieroglyphic Luwian inscription and the related geographical and chronological problems. It will be argued that Masaurhisas was a king of Tuwana and a renewed palaeographic, iconographic, and chronological analysis of the Tuwana inscriptions confirms the traditional sequencing of the Tuwana kings (Muwaharanis I > Warpalawas > Muwaharanis II) and suggests a dating of Masaurhisas after Muwaharanis II, i.e. to the beginning of the 7th c. BC. A discussion of various connected toponyms confirms the necessity of distinguishing between Atuna/Tunna to be located in the vicinity of Bohca and Dunna/Tynna/Zeyve Höyük, where also an explanation will be offered to the hitherto unexplained alternation of Atuna/Tunna. It will be furthermore suggested that the latter one is to be identified with the settlement of Tuna of the KULULU lead strip No. 1.
