Abdu Heba

Abdu Heba Prince  of Jerusalem, in modern Israel. He agreed  with Akhenaten (1353-1335 B.C.E.) of the Eighteenth Dynasty concerning the troubled outcomes of the era. The messages sent by Abdu Heba are involved in the accumulation of letters observed in the capital, Amarna, a important accumulation of correspondence that clearly delineates the life and semipolitical convulsions of that historical  period.  This  prince  of  Jerusalem  seems  to  have maintained unstable relations with neighboring rulers, all vassals of the Egyptian Empire. Shuwardata, the prince of Hebron, complained about Abdu Heba, claiming that he raided other cities lands and kin himself with a physical nomadic tribe called the Apiru.

When  Abdu-Heba  heard  of Shuwardatas charges, he wrote Akhenaten to exalt his innocence. He too urged the Egyptian pharaoh to have steps to safeguard the part because  of  growing  unrest  and migrations  from  the  northwest. In one letter,  Abdu  Heba strongly  resisted  against  the  continued  presence  of Egyptian troops in Jerusalem. He called them unsafe and related how these soldiers went on a drunken spree, hooking  his  palace  and  almost  killing  him  in  the  serve.
