Milkilu, and more properly Milk-ilu, or Milku-ilu, with an alternate version of Ili-Milku-(letter 286, by Abdi-Heba of Jerusalem), was the mayor/ruler of Gazru-(Gezer) of the 1350-1335 BC Amarna letters correspondence. Adda-danu, and Yapahu were also mayors of Gazru.

Milk-ilu is the author of 5 Amarna letters to the pharaoh of Egypt, EA 267-271, (EA for 'el Amarna'). One letter (EA 369) from the pharaoh to Milk-ilu is known.

EA 369, to Milkilu: "From the Pharaoh to a vassal"

"To Milkilu, the ruler of Gazru: Thus the king. He herewith dispatches to you this tablet-(i.e. tablet-letter), saying to you, He herewith sends to you Hanya, the stable (overseer) of the archers, along with everything for the acquisition of beautiful female cupbearers: silver, gold, linen garments: ma-al-ba-ši, carnelian, all sorts of (precious) stones, an ebony chair; all alike, fine things. Total (value): 160 diban. Total: 40 female cupbearers, 40 (shekels of) silver being the price of a female cupbearer. Send extremely beautiful female cupbearers in whom there is no defect-(i.e. no guile in their heart), so the king, your lord, will say to you, "this is excellent, in accordance with the order he sent to you." And know that the king is hale like the Sun. For his troops, his ch[ariot]s, his horses, all goes very well. Aman has indeed put the Upper Land, the Lower Land, where the sun rises, where the sun sets, under the feet of the king." -EA 369, lines 1-32 (complete)
