Kashtariti

Kashtariti (bahasa Akkadia: Kaš-ta-ri-ti, bahasa Persia Kuno: Xšaθrita; fl. 670-an SM) adalah seorang kepala suku Media. Ia disebutkan sebagai "Raja Media" dalam sebuah prasasti tertanggal 678 SM.^[1] Wilayahnya mungkin terletak di sepanjang perbatasan timur laut Asyur. Di antara harta miliknya adalah kota Karkašši.^[2] Kashtariti menjalin aliansi dengan Gimirrites (Kimmeri), Mannea, Mede and Skithia melawan Asyur.

Teks Asyur menyebutkan serangan Kashtariti ke Asyur, kemudian di bawah kepemimpinan Esarhadon. Orakel biasanya dicari oleh penguasa Asyur untuk acara-acara seperti itu, memohon para dewa untuk menilai situasi dan membimbing mereka menuju bantuan. Esarhadon tidak asing dengan praktik seperti itu, sering beralih ke orakel ini untuk meminta nasihat. Sebelum keputusan dapat dibuat oleh nubuat ini, hewan akan dikorbankan dan pertanda kemudian akan ditafsirkan berdasarkan posisi bangkai. Keputusan kemudian akan dibuat berdasarkan pertanda ini.^[3] Dalam hal ini, Esarhadon meminta petunjuk kepada imam dewa matahari, Shamash.^[4] Prasasti yang berasal dari abad ke-VII SM, sebagian besar ditemukan di Nineveh, menggambarkan beberapa "permintaan orakel" dalam kaitannya dengan Kashtariti pada khususnya.^[5] Di antara pertanyaan yang diajukan kepada Shamash selama permintaan orakel ini adalah apakah Kashtariti merupakan ancaman bagi Asyur, dan apakah ia akan menaklukkan beberapa kota Asyur.^[6] Kashtariti telah meminta bantuan kepala suku Media lainnya, Mamitiarshu, untuk menyerang kota Kisasu di Asyur.^[7] Satu permintaan orakel yang tercatat menyatakan bahwa Esarhadon takut kehilangan kota ke Media.^[8] Kashtariti juga merencanakan serangan di kota Kilmân di Asyur dengan Mannea dan Saparda.^[9]

Jelas bahwa serangan Kashtariti bukanlah satu-satunya kejadian karena Esarhadon terus-menerus mencari nubuat untuk membantu menangani kampanyenya yang mengganggu ke wilayah Asyur.^[10] Satu permintaan orakel menunjukkan bahwa Kashtariti berusaha untuk berdamai dengan Asyur. Dia mengirim seorang utusan ke istana kerajaan Asyur, dengan harapan menciptakan sebuah perjanjian. Esarhadon memohon kepada Shamash, menanyakan apakah dia harus menyetujui perdamaian ^[11] atau menginterogasi utusan itu dan membunuhnya.^[12] Permintaan orakel berikutnya menunjukkan bahwa perdamaian tidak pernah tercapai. Sebaliknya, Asyur mungkin melakukan pembalasan terhadap Kashtariti dan pasukannya, dengan maksud untuk akhirnya mengakhiri serangan dari Kashtariti.^[13] Aliansi Kashtariti terpecah karena perselisihan internal, dan kampanye Kashtariti di Asyur berakhir sebelum 673 SM. Beberapa suku Skitia melanjutkan serangan ke Asyur. Suku Skithia lainnya, di bawah kepemimpinan Bartatua, berusaha menikahi putri Esarhadon untuk membuat aliansi dengan Esarhadon sebagai sarana untuk mengakhiri permusuhan. Suku Media lainnya dalam aliansi Kashtariti juga berdamai dengan Asyur.^[14]

Dinyatakan bahwa Kashtariti dapat diidentifikasi sebagai raja Media Phraortes. Tetapi beberapa cendekiawan menyangkal hubungan seperti itu berdasarkan bukti sejarah dan perbedaan linguistik dalam nama asli Iran dari kedua penguasa.
