This is a great new little article, Tarchunes. I like the inclusion of the table of kings and the infobox. I've done some tweaking of various kinds, the most substantial of which involves using the {{ sfnp}} template to help manage references in a compact and relatively effortless way. I did want to mention that the Gurgum/Kurkuma distinction may be more apparent than real, since (as you no doubt realize) hieroglyphic Luwian doesn't distinguish between g and k, and therefore k-glyphs would be used even if the name had /g/. (Luwian itself may or may not have possessed such a phoneme, but neighbouring languages would have.) Maybe it could be helpful in future to include sections on the kingdom's geography and on archaeological finds from the region? Anyway, well done and keep up the great work!

There is something incomprehensible. The dates of the reign of King Larama II are recorded later 9th century BC, and dates of his son Halparuntiya III are recorded 805 - ca. 800 BC. But it is the end of the 9th century BC. There seems to be some inaccuracy here. MagnusFit ( talk) 23:20, 29 December 2022 (UTC)
