Za historiju kraljevstva Mitanni (1500–1300. pne.), v. Mitanni.

Huriti (također Kuriti;[1] klinopis Ḫu-ur-ri 𒄷𒌨𒊑) su bili narod drevnog Bliskog Istoka, koji je živio u sjevernoj Mezopotamiji i oblastima istočno i zapadno od nje, s početkom od oko 2500. pne.. Vjerojatno su se naselili s Kavkaza, ali za to nema čvrstih dokaza. Postojbina im je bila Subartu, dolina rijeke Khabur, a kasnije su se nametnuli kao vladari malih kraljevstva au Mezopotamiji i Siriji. Najveće i najvažnije od njih je bilo kraljevstvo Mitanni.

Huriti su igrali važnu ulogu u historiji Hetita.
