The Land of Kir is a location mentioned in the Hebrew Bible, where the Arameans are said to have originated. It is also the place to which Tiglath-Pileser III of Assyria carried the Aramean captives after he had taken the city of Damascus and conquered the kingdom of Aram-Damascus (2 Kings 16:9; Amos 1:5; 9:7).
