Amarna letter EA 170, titled: "To Aziru in Egypt"[1] is a moderate length letter (44 lines of text), from Aziru, the leader of the region of Amurru. EA 170 is the fifteenth letter in a series of 16 letters regarding Aziru.

As the title states, Aziru has finally visited Egypt to see the Pharaoh; the letter is mostly local home news, but does report the takeover over the Amqu region, in continued regional warfare.

EA 170 is a highly inscribed, undamaged Amarna letter, (see here: [https://cdli.ucla.edu/search/search_results.php?SearchMode=Text&ObjectID=P271189]), and can be seen to be inscribed on the Obverse, Bottom, Reverse, and Right & Left sides.

The Amarna letters, about 300, numbered up to EA 382, are a mid 14th century BC, about 1360 BC and 20–25 years later, correspondence. The initial corpus of letters were found at Akhenaten's city Akhetaten, in the floor of the Bureau of Correspondence of Pharaoh; others were later found, adding to the body of letters.

Letter EA 170 (also see here-(Obverse): [https://cdli.ucla.edu/search/search_results.php?SearchMode=Text&ObjectID=P271189]), is numbered VAT 327, from the Vorderasiatisches Museum Berlin.
