Hantili II was a king in the Hittite Middle Kingdom, during the Late Bronze in the 15th century BC.
Hantili was a son of King Alluwamna, as attested in a land grant document from Alluwamna to his son, Hantili. His mother was likely Queen Harapà ¡eki, the daughter of the King Telipinu. Hantili is mentioned on the offering lists right after Alluwamna. The later king Zidanta II was possibly Hantili's nephew.
Hantili was the first great king in several generations to receive the royal blood from his father.
There is an alliance treaty with the king Paddatishu of Kizzuwatna with an unnamed Hittite king, who could be either Hantili II or his father Alluwamna. It is unclear, though, whether Hantili reigned right after Alluwamna, or if an interloper Tahurwaili reigned in between. It is also possible that Tahurwaili reigned after Hantili II. Most likely, though, that Tahurwaili reigned before Aluwamna, and Hantili was succeeded by Zidanta II
Full text of Endowment Inscription of Hantili II from the Middle Hittite Age found in BoÃÂazköy:
"The seal (sealed endowment document) of the Great King Tabana ("The Ruler"): The Great King received from the uriyannis on the right (sitting to the right of the king at the meeting or on the right wing in the battle formation) and from, the head of the guard detachment ("harpooner's head"), Haà ¡à ¡uili. And gave it to Haà ¡à ¡uili, the head of the guard detachment ("harpooner's head"), as a gift. In the future, no one will be able to claim (for this endowment) from Haà ¡à ¡uili and his grandchildren! The word of the Great King Tabarna is of steel. It cannot be thrown aside and broken! Whoever changes it, they will be beheaded. This tablet was written in Hatti land by the clerk Hannikuili in front of Ià ¡kunaà ¡à ¡u, the head of the palace boys, à  arpa and the commander of the army inspectors."
