Where was Mursili II born?

Open Question

What is documented is his parentage (son of Suppiluliuma I and Queen Henti) and his military annals; Hittite royal records name where kings ruled and campaigned but do not record where royal children were born.

What would resolve this A Hittite administrative or annalistic record naming his birthplace, which none of the surviving Hittite archives supplies.
