赫梯語
According to some biblical commentators, the descendants of Tiras have been identified with the "Thyrsenoi", "who raided throughout the Aegean sea"; and to the "Tursha" ("Turusha" or "Teresh"), who were recorded by Egyptian sources at the time of pharaons Merneptah and Ramses II. Biblical commentators also propose a possible connection with the city of Troy, known in the Hittite language as "Taruisa".
