Gutiler: Dağ Çocukları - Unutulmuş Krallıklar

Gutians: Mountain Children - Forgotten Kingdoms Book Description There were two people in the region that Naram, the king of Akkad, feared. One of them was Gutis and the other was Lulu (Lulubeker). These warrior people, living in the foothills of the Zagros Mountains, besieged the Akkadian kingdom in 2154 BC and put an end to their domination. Guti, who are not a nomadic people, are one of the indigenous people of the Zagros. The adjective "gu-ti-um" was used in Sumerian texts for this community, which lived in clans and tribes. Ancient historians describe the Gutians as a "warrior people". Since they loved living freely and did not want to be under the rule of a kingdom, they joined forces and attacked the Akkadian Dynasty. The reasons for this attack are considered to be taking advantage of the Akkadians' weakness in the region. Al Narçın informs his readers about the lives of the Gutis using a short and simple expression. (From the Promotional Bulletin)
