Asia of Diauehi
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Asia was a king of the ancient people of Diauehi (Daiaeni) in northeastern Anatolia (circa 850 BC-825 BC). He was forced to submit to the Assyrian king Shalmaneser III, in 845 BC, after the latter had overrun Urartu and made a foray into Diauehi.
