Armanum, was a city-state in the ancient Near East whose location is still unknown. It lies in the same general area as Mari and Ebla. It is known from texts of the Akkadian period, during the reign of Naram-Sin of Akkad. The proposed site of Armanum is Tall Bazi. An earlier suggestion linking Armanum with the Armi of Ebla texts has now been largely discounted.[1][2]
