Mihos,

I assume you are speaking of the messenger sent by, presumably, Anksenamun to Suppiluliuma. He is mentioned in the Amarna correspondence at least four times, though under two different spelling (Hani and Hanni), in letters 161, 227 222a and 367g. He is twice referred to as the son of Maireya, but there is no other personal information about him, nor would such information, I think be likley to be found in the context of either the Amarna letters or the Hittite archives. I know of no additional information regarding this rather obscure official. I second Rick's remark about A's involvement in foreign affairs. I think the view that he largely neglected his territories outside Egypt proper has been overstated, and is (or has been) undergoing some correction.
