Hittite texts

Hittite texts are ancient writings from the Hittite civilization that thrived in Anatolia (modern-day Turkey) around 1600-1100 BCE. These texts include legal codes, treaties, religious hymns, and historical records, often carved onto clay tablets or written in cuneiform script. They offer insights into Hittite culture, politics, religion, and language. Studying these texts helps us understand early complex societies, their governance, beliefs, and interactions with neighboring cultures, providing a crucial link to the broader history of the ancient Near East.
