Nuhašše, also Nuhašša, was a territory in the
Syrian region mentioned in various
Middle Eastern documents. The
1350 BC Amarna letters correspondence refers to Nuhašše in 11 tablet-letters written in
Akkadian cuneiform.
The region was generally south of Aleppo. In the Amarna letters, Nuhašše was ruled by Addu-nirari, letter EA 51, (EA for 'el Amarna').
