About the book

The Hittites examines the ancient Anatolian civilisation that became one of the great powers of the Bronze Age. The book explores Hittite kingship, warfare, religion, law and diplomacy, including their rivalry with Egypt and their role in the wider politics of the ancient Near East. Archaeological discoveries have revealed a sophisticated society whose influence was long forgotten.
