  • IMPACT of a MILITARISTIC SOCIETY: a STUDY on the HITTITES by Amber N. Hawley Submitted to the Faculty of the Archaeological Stud
    IMPACT OF A MILITARISTIC SOCIETY: A STUDY ON THE HITTITES By Amber N. Hawley Submitted to the Faculty of The Archaeological Studies Program Department of Sociology and Archaeology in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Science University of Wisconsin – La Crosse 2012 Copyright © 2012 by Amber N. Hawley All rights reserved ii THE ECONOMIC IMPACT OF A MILITARISTIC SOCIETY: A STUDY ON THE HITTITES Amber N. Hawley, B.S. University of Wisconsin-La Crosse, 2012 The purpose of this study is to better understand the relationship between the military, the economy, and the societal collapse of the Hittites, a militaristic society. The Hittite empire suffered from many problems near the end of its existence, but this research supports the idea that the military‟s demand for subsistence goods was too great for the economy to provide. By analyzing historical documentation, many aspects of the Hittite culture can be examined, such as trade networks as well as military campaign reports. The study also looks at the archaeological excavations of Hattusa, the Hittite capital, and Kaman-Kalehöyük, a supply city that would restock the campaigning military. By examining these cities and historical documentation, better understanding of the economy and military will be attained for militaristic societies; and in the case of the Hittites, their relationship to the societal collapse is determined to be strong. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First and foremost, I would like to thank my advisors, Dr. David Anderson and Dr. Mark Chavalas for providing me with feedback throughout my research. I would also like to thank my reading group, which consisted of Mitchell Johnson and Maximilian Pschorr for giving me great advice.

Jared L. Miller While working recently on a general history of the Hittites, I was forced to deal with the question posed in the title of this paper. And my conclusion was, in short: No, there are no signs, or at least no clear signs, of the decline and impending collapse of the Hittite state in the documentation from Hattuša. It should be emphasized at this point that only the question as it pertains to the textual documentation from Hattuša will be discussed in this paper, not the archaeological data and not the textual material from Ugarit, Emar, Amarna or other sites, which, taken all together, result in a somewhat more informative, though still very incomplete, picture.1 Further, as this paper attempts to address a very extensive and complex topic in only a few short pages, it will necessarily be the case that myriad aspects of very many issues raised will remain untouched as I lay out the argument in broad strokes.

  • REFLEXIONES SOBRE LOS ÚLTIMOS GRANDES REYES HITITAS: TUTHALIYA IV, ANATOLIA Y EL DESPUNTE FINAL DEL REINO DE HATTI DURANTE LA SEGUNDA MITAD DEL S.XIII A.C
    REFLEXIONES SOBRE LOS ÚLTIMOS GRANDES REYES HITITAS: TUTHALIYA IV, ANATOLIA Y EL DESPUNTE FINAL DEL REINO DE HATTI DURANTE LA SEGUNDA MITAD DEL s.XIII a.C. POR JUAN MANUEL GONZÁLEZ SALAZAR Universidad Autónoma de Madrid BIBLID: [0571-3692 (2002) 249-270] RESUMEN: El presente trabajo aborda algunos aspectos de considerable significa- ción de uno de los últimos y más destacados reyes hititas: Tuthaliya IV. La carrera de Tuthaliya no estuvo, ni mucho menos, exenta de problemas: en los asuntos internos, su trono estuvo constantemente amenazado por un conflicto entre él y rivales de la propia familia real; en el ámbito externo, en particular en los territorios imperiales anatólicos, hubo graves amenazas provenientes del Oeste y Sur de Anatolia. A pesar de todo, el reino de Hatti alcanzó un período de relativo florecimiento religioso-cultu- ral previo a la caída y desaparición definitiva del reino hitita (ca.1200 a.C.) como uno de los grandes poderes del Oriente Próximo antiguo. PALABRAS CLAVE: Tuthaliya IV, Reino Hitita, Anatolia, Situación Conflictiva. ABSTRACT: The present work provides some aspects of considerable significance about one of the last and most important Hittite Great Kings: Tuthaliya IV. The Tuthaliya's career had many problems: in internal affairs his throne was at constant risk because of a conflict between him and rival claimants of his own family; more- over, in external affairs, specially in the anatolian imperial territories, there were serious threats in the West and South of Anatolia. At the same time, Hatti enjoyed a relatively flourishing period in religious-cultural matters previously to the Fall of the Hittite Kingdom (1200 a.C.) as one of the Great powers of the ancient Near East.

  • Kingship in Heaven’-Theme from Kumarbi to Kronos Via Anatolia
    Studying external stimuli to the development of the ancient Aegean The ‘Kingship in Heaven’-theme from Kumarbi to Kronos via Anatolia. Erik Wilhelmus Maria van Dongen UCL Department of History PhD Thesis - 1 - I, Erik Wilhelmus Maria van Dongen, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. - 2 - Thesis abstract It is commonly accepted nowadays that ancient Aegean culture included many elements that were not indigenous. But scholars still question the importance of these for the development of the region. I contend that such scepticism is mistaken. Ideas about the ancient Aegean’s cultural independence are founded in the history of research in this field, and could be countered by more detailed studies of specific cultural elements. The following issues should be addressed: the likelihood of an indigenous development of elements; reasons for transmission and the process of embedment; the process of transmission. These issues I discuss in the introduction. Next, a case study follows on the connection between the appearances of the ‘Kingship in Heaven’-theme in the Hittite Song of Going Forth (‘Song of Kumarbi’) and the Hesiodic Theogony. I explain these by proposing a specific scenario. An analysis of the song shows that it focused on the storm-god more than is commonly assumed. Subsequently, the variant of the theme in the Theogony and its similarities with that of the song are described. Various elements of the theme that appear similarly in the Theogony and the song probably originated outside the Aegean.
