Zidanta II was a king of the Hittites (Middle Kingdom) in the 15th century BC.

Life

He was probably a nephew of Hantili II and had a wife Yaya. Zidanta made peace through the means of a parity treaty with a ruler named Pilliya, his counterpart in Kizzuwatna. This was the last parity treaty ever signed by a Hittite king to a king of Kizzuwatna.[1]

He was succeeded by Huzziya II although their relation remains unclear.
