Ammitakum II was a king of the ancient Mesopotamian city Alalakh. Archaeologists unearthed a large number of tablets detailing Ammitakum's reign. These documents showed that many citizens of Alalakh were indebted to him.[1] Ammitakum purchased two settlements named Age and Igandan from Irkabtum, a king of Yamhad.[2] It is likely Ammitakum was succeeded by Hammurabi of Alalakh.[3] Ammitakum also arranged a marriage for his son. He married his son to the daughter of the king of Ibla.[4][5]
