A Phoenician town located on the site of modern Amyun, near the city of Tripoli. A mendicant prince from Alalakh reported that Ammia was populated by "men of Halab (Aleppo), Mukish, Ni and Amau", suggesting a cosmopolitan and diverse population. The town plays a key role in the Amarna texts. In one of his more frantic letters (EA 75) Rib-Addi of Gubla (Byblos) writes to Pharaoh the "behold now the people of Ammia have killed their lord; so I am frightened."
