The Hittite empire is not well know here in Brazil and history books often skip them (also the Mittani empire). This is crazy, the Hittite empire was one of the largest bronze age empire. Thankfully I played the original Age Of Empires as an early teen. Most of my history knowledge today came from AoE and Civilization games.

An interesting factoid about the Hittites is their early use of iron weapons. Although nearly not as prevalent as thought by earlier scholarship…a rare iron sword may have been used here and there (much of it meteoric iron. How cool would it be to have a sword made from meteorites! ) It is still debated how common it was in there empire. The more modern view seems to be very little was used and was more of a luxury item…there is a Hittite record of a vassal king “man of Burushanda” giving an iron throne as a gift in the early Hittite period. Iron was looked at as more of a luxury metal than utilitarian during the Bronze Age it seems-Had the bronze age not collapsed the iron age may have come much earlier.

@kurd means strong Kurdish civilizations?! What is it exactly that makes such disparate peoples "Kurdish" in your opinion? For example, the Phoenicians were of Semitohamitic ancestry, speaking a Semitic language, the Sumerians are of unknown but pre-IE ancestry, the Hittites were an admixture of pre-IE Hattians and IE Hittites proper... There was no connection among those peoples in antiquity to begin with, let alone a remote connection with the Kurds nowadays. The Kurds are an Iranic people whose probable ancestry has something to do with the Medes, the Gordians (the 'Kardouchoi' mentioned by Xenophon) and maybe even the Hurrians (though it's practically impossible to tell with certainty)... But to retrospectively claim all those different peoples as Kurdish, is absurd!

The Hittites were a culture that was so influential during the late bronze age, but doesn't get much press. Thank you for this video,

The pharaoh's widow was actually Ankhesenamun, wife of Tutankhamen. She was most likely worried about getting booted from the palace as her husband died young and she never carried an heir to term. So her request to the Hittite king was bizarre to them but made sense to her; "give me a prince to make a royal heir with". The king even sent an emissary first to make sure she was being understood correctly, and she sent back a letter with him passing along her offense that she wasn't being believed/taken seriously.

Saw a documentary which suggested that the Hittite Empire actually broke up due to internal division, and they vacated their capital, burning it as they left. What is sure, is that the burning process helped preserve the clay tablets in the Library of Hattusa, containing the Hittite diplomatic correspondence. Quiz question, did anyone spot the Hittite reference in the original King Kong film?

The Hittites learned from ancient Semitic civilizations such as Babylon, Assyria and ancient Egypt, and were very influenced by the civilizations of ancient Iraq. Although the Hittites are Indo-European peoples, it shows you the extent to which human peoples learn from each other ❤️❤️

Gene D. Matlock - What Strange Mystery Unites the Turkish Nations, India, Catholicism, and Mexico? In a book about the history of ancient Turkic Afghanistan, I found such biblical personages as King David, Saul, Adam and Eve, Goliath, and even Solomon. However, in the Afghan account, Goliath was riding on an elephant when David knocked him off the elephant. The Afghan account mentioned that after being banished from Eden, Adam went to Ceylon or what is now Sri Lanka (Serendipity). Eve went to Jiddah, in Arabia. (Ref: History of The Afghans, by Khwaja Neamat Ullah.) It was painfully difficult for me to challenge, weaken and anesthetize my previous religious conditionings. After all, I was born Christian and still am. But I remained strong and resolute in my quest. I did not overlook any kind of anomaly, such as the strange similarities between Brahm-Abraham, Sarah-Saraisvati, and Hakra (Hagar?). I also found other Noahs and several Moseses in Hindu myths, but the Hindus say that many of the myths in their holy books occurred in Central Asia, especially in Siberia, ancestral home of all the Turkish peoples. Even the biblical Hindu Hittites and Amorites, the fathers and mothers of Jerusalem, also Abraham and Sarah, were Turks. If one cannot accept that the Hittites and Amorites were Turkish Krishtayas, he’ll never get any sense out of the Bible.

Huh, school hasn't taught me this yet. I was wondering what was happening in Anatolia during those times. Thanks for sharing such great information!

Your videos are great and informative. I really enjoy watching them and hearing your other voices representing the group you are primarily talking about.

I'm kinda shocked you didn't mention this in your video about them. Some consider it to be an astonishing moment in history when one of the few times that the Bible was proved to be right on a given topic....namely the fact that they existed.

Years ago I visited the remains of Hattusa and was intrigued by the Hittites and I still wonder if they are connected with the Etruscans who are believed to have migrated from the Turkish inland to Italy, or if this group belonged to one of the subdued kingdoms of the Hittites…

The Hatti kings killings remind me of the later Byzantine emperors kings killings. The Hatti army stalemate against the Egyptian army led by Pharaoh Ramses II at the battle of Kadesh was a great achievement.

I'm not sure if you'd like to see requests but for what it's worth, I'd love to see you tackle the history of Carthage? I'm aware you're looking to deal with the lesser known parts of ancient history, so if Carthage is too "hip" for your channel ;P perhaps a video on Phoenicia then? In any case thank you for your work, I am addicted to these videos

Very interesting, I like the artwork used!👍

Excellent vid but I do have a recommendation. Maybe you could zoom out the map pic for better reference and maybe even show a modern day representation of countries in the map?

Your actually great for covering such great but less spoken of history

The land of Hatti! Always my favorite Bronze Age culture! Their language, Nesili, is Indo-European, Masters of horse, and designers of the heavy chariot. "Nu-NINDA-an ezzateni watar-ma ekutteni"... "Bread you eat and water you drink". "NINDA" is related to the word "naan" seen for Indian flat bread. "Ezzateni" to the German "essen" "to eat" and "watar" needs no translation!

If intersted...Rothman, quoted said...''All that was known in Mesopotamia came from Armenia and that Armenia is the absent fragment in the entire mosaic of the ancient world's civilization's construction. according to Anthropologist Mitchell S. Rothman regarding the extent of discoveries and specially on the quality of horse bones proved, According to him, that it was from the Shangavit Armenian 6000 years ago that the culture of that area spread around to the ancient world... Professor Jensen also says. ‘For almost everything that is known in the Hittite language is Old Armenian in form..Historian Sayce 1845-1933) also consider Hittite and Armenian to be one and the same’. what some historians say...H.V. Hilprecht(1859-1925) a Clark research professor of Assyriology and scientific director Babylonian expedition at the University of Penn. argue that the Hittite tongue is Armenian and the Hittites themselves were of Armenian stock...according to Ellis (1861) through language analysis we observe that under the names of Phrygians, Thracians,Pelasgians and Etruscans spread westward from Armenia to Italy and Elis claimed that the closest affinities of the Aryan element are the Armenians ..other historians that agree are..Hellenthal, Busgy, Brand, Wilson, Myers and Falush...let me quote Merrick (2012) All religions are descended from and ancient Vedic cosmology described in the Rib - Veda, originating in Armenia near Mt. Ararat at least 6800 ys ago and the basic concepts of a transcendental mountain extending into space and populated planet Star-gods were developed...he further says...This Astrotheology then migrated with Armenian Aryans to found the Sumerian Ethiopian/Egyptian and Indian civilizations and religions...from Language as a fingerprint Setyan...

It seems they (or other related Anatolian peoples) survived as distinct ethnic groups until the Hellenistic era: The Isaurians were likely the last surviving group.

Great video!

History of the bronze age is like fantasy to me. Don't really know the reason, but I am simple overwhelmed by it. Thanks for the videos m8.

Thanks a lot bro

Hattusa the capital of The Hittite empire is still great and magnificent. You easily realize how strong and civilized there were when you visit this historic place. I strongly recommend you visit and have a walk through still existed city walls and the tunnel which is 3000 years old

Excellent video of perhaps my favorite Bronze Age people, thank you very much! Their laws seem to have been more humane than those of surrounding people. Money's a bit tight right now so I'll do a Patreon pledge a bit later , hope you don't mind. Hold me to it! ;)

Brilliant, thanks!
