Нарам-Суэн
Early 20th century Armenologists have suggested that Old Persian "a-r-mi-i-n(a)" and the Greek "Armenoi" are continuations of an Assyrian toponym "Armânum" or "Armanî". There are certain Bronze Age records identified with the toponym in both Mesopotamian and Egyptian sources. The earliest is from an inscription which mentions "Armânum" together with "Ibla" as territories conquered by Naram-Sin of Akkad in c. 2250 BC identified with an Akkadian colony in the Diarbekr region. Many historians, such as Wayne Horowitz, identify "Armanî" which was conquered by Naram-Sin of Akkad, with the Syrian city of Aleppo.
