Enkhelyawon (Mycenaean Greek: 𐀁𐀐𐁈𐀺, e-ke-rja-wo)[n 1] was possibly a Mycenaean king from Pylos in the 13th century BCE.

Enkhelyawon is known from Linear B records from Pylos. He was very important and owned great estates, including good farm land, a thousand grapevines and a thousand fig trees; he also had forty men serving as rowers in the fleet.[1] Because of this it is assumed that he was a king[1][2] - Mycenaean Greek: wanax; Linear B: 𐀷𐀙𐀏, wa-na-ka; later Greek: ἄναξ, anax - and that he ruled over Pylos. But as kings are only mentioned by their title in texts of Linear B, it is not possible to conclusively prove this theory.

  1. ^ rja stands for the *76 or ra2 Linear B sign. Enkhelyawon or Enkheljāwōn is a possible yet uncertain reconstruction of the name. The attested forms of this word - though there are also other attested words that could possibly be variants thereof - are 𐀁𐀐𐁈𐀺, e-ke-rja-wo (thought to be the nominative case form), 𐀁𐀐𐁈𐀺𐀜, e-ke-rja-wo-no (thought to be the genitive form), and 𐀁𐀐𐁈𐀺𐀚, e-ke-rja-wo-ne (thought to be the dative form), found respectively, on the PY Un 718, PY An 610 and PY An 724 tablets.[1][2][3][4]
