Gurgum was a Neo-Hittite state in Anatolia, known from the 10th to the 7th century BC. Its name is given as Gurgum in Assyrian sources,[1] while its native name seems to have been Kurkuma for the reason that the capital of Gurgum—Marqas in Assyrian sources (today Maraş)—was named "the Kurkumaean city"[2] (ku+ra/i-ku-ma-wa/i-ni-i-sà(URBS)[3]) in local Hieroglyphic Luwian inscriptions.
