Diauehi or Diaokhi, Daiaeni [1] (Ronald Grigor Suny (1994).[3]
Although the exact geographic extent of Diauehi is still unclear, many scholars place it in the toponym Sasire, near Tortomi (present-day Tortum, Turkey).[4]
This federation was powerful enough to counter the Assyrian forays, although in 1112 BC its king, Sien, was defeated by Tiglath-Pileser I. He was captured and later released on terms of vassalage. In 845 BC, Shalmaneser III finally subdued Diauehi and downgraded its king, Asia, to a client ruler.
King Asia of Diauehi (850 BC – 825 BC) 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. In the early 8th century, Diauehi became the target of the newly emerged regional power of Urartu. Both Menuas (810-785 BC) and Argishtis I (785-763 BC) campaigned against the Diauehi king, Utupurshi (c. 810 BC - 770 BC), annexing his southernmost possessions and forcing him to pay tribute, which included copper, silver and gold.
Diauehi was finally destroyed by Colchian incursions by about the 760s BC, the date of the last recorded references to Diauehi.
