  • For the Hittite “Royal Guard” During the Old Kingdom: Observations on Elite Military Units and Their Possible Warfare Applications
    Athens Journal of Mediterranean Studies - Volume 7, Issue 3, July 2021 – Pages 171-186 The “Protocols” for the Hittite “Royal Guard” during the Old Kingdom: Observations on Elite Military Units and their Possible Warfare Applications By Eduardo Ferreira* In this article, we intend to analyse the importance and modus operandi of a military unit (generally known as “Royal Guard”) whose function was, among other things, the protection of the Hattuša-based Hittite kings. For this essay, we will be mainly using two Hittite textual sources known as “instructions” or “protocols”. We aim to find a connection between these guards and their function regarding the protection of the royal palace as well as their military enlistment in that elite unit. The period to be covered in this analysis comes directly from the choice of sources: the Hittite Old Kingdom, confined between the chronological beacons of the 17th, 16th and 15th centuries BC. With this analysis, we intend to provide some relevant data that may contribute to a better understanding of these elite military units, particularly in regards to their probable warfare functions. Were they used in battle? How were they armed? What was their tactical importance in combat? How was the recruitment done? How were the units formed? These will be some questions that we will try to answer throughout this article. Keywords: guard, palace, command, warfare, infantry Introduction The Hittites were an Indo-European people that arrived in Anatolia through the Caucasus from Eurasia between 2000 and 1900 BC (Haywood 2005, Bryce 2005). On their Indo-European journey to the west, they also brought horses (Raulwing 2000, Renfrew 1990, Joseph and Fritz 2017/2018).

  • HİTİT KRAL AİLE Si ÜYELERİNİN SİYASAL ETKİNLİGİ ÜZERİNE Yard.Doç
    HİTİT KRAL AİLE sİ ÜYELERİNİN SİYASAL ETKİNLİGİ ÜZERİNE Yard.Doç. Dr. Turgut YİöİT* . Günümüze dek ulaşan çivi yazılı belgelerde Hititler'in siyasal ve kültürel yaşamına ilişkin pek çok ayrıntılı bilgiyi bulma şansına sahibiz. Siyasal aktiviteler açısından baktığımızda, bu belgelerin kralları konu aldiğını, bunun yanında ve bununla bağlantılı olarak da kral ailesi üyelerinin ya da diğer üst düzey görevlilerin siyasal hareket ve ilişkilerinin de konu edildiğini görüyoruz. Bu hareket ve ilişkiler, kralın yanında devlet yönetiminde görevalma, kral tarafından yönetici olarak bir şehir ya da bağlı devletin başına getirilme, krala karşı isyan ederek yönetimi ele geçirme ya da buna teşebbüs,diplomatik ilişkilere dolaylı katkı gibi çok farklı yönleriyle ele alınabilir. Yayınlanmış tarihsel içerikli belgelerdeki kral ailesi üyelerine ilişkin kayıtları bu bakış açısından bir araya getirerek, Hititler'de kral ailesi üyelerinin siyasal etkinliğinin ne ölçüde olduğunu ortaya koymayı amaçlıyoruz. Ancak hemen şunu belirtmek gerekir ki, kral ailesinin çok etkin bir üyesi Tawananna ve bununla birlikte kraliçe başlıbaşına çalışmalara konu olduklarından i burada ele alınmayacaktır. Kral ailesi üyeleri arasında prensierin önemli' idari görevlerde bulunduklarını belgeler vasıtasıyla biliyoruz. Ancak prensler arasında "veliaht" olar~k atananların şüphesiz gelecekte elde edecekleri mevki, yani krallık, dolayısıyla daha önemli roller üstlendikleri ve daha etkili oldukları kabul edilmelidir. ' c Bir veliahtın belirtildiği ilk belgeler Anitta'ya ilişkin olanlardır. Daha Kültepe çağı'na ait olmak üzere Kültepe'de ele geçen bir belgede "Kral Pithana 2 ve merdiven büyüğü Anitta" ifadesi vardır • Yine aynı çağa ait olmak üzere Alişar'da ele geçen bir belgede bu defa "Büyük Kral Anitta, merdiven büyüğü 3 4 Peruwa" ifadesi yer alır • "Merdiven büyüğü" "veliaht" anlamındadır . Burada adı veliaht olarak geçenlerden Anitta'nın daha sonra krallık yaptığını biliyoruz.

Hittites had polytheistic religion. They set rituals for a deities in their religious life. They used numereous objects in their rituals. Like as many societies of ancient times, Hittites used various animals in rituals. Votive / offering was most commonly using style of Animals in the Hittites rituals. Sheeps, Bull, Goat – Goatling / kid, Dog – Puppy, Pig – Piglet and Bird species were most commonly animals used in the Hittite rituals as an offering. In this paper, we will examine which animals were used and it’s using aims in the ritual of Hittites in the light of cuneiform texts and archaeological relief and remains. Key words: Animal using, Hitite rituals, Ancient animals, Animal votive. INTRODUCTION Hittites, Indo-European origin, lived in Anatolia since BC second millenium. It is unknown that whether Hittites came to Anatolia from the outside or not. Also if they came to Anatolia from the outside, we didn’t know that which road (sea or land) were used by the Hittites. According to first data about Hittites, they were first seen in the Kuššara region. Pitḫana, is known King of Kuššara, conquered Neša, modern Kayseri Kültepe.

In ancient studies, whether a city is considered as a “capital” or not, influences its investigation, the research questions and thus the interest in subaltern spaces. This contribution focuses on the capital of the Hittite Empire, and I examine how modern research on ancient capital created marginal spaces and how scientific traditions did consolidate them. I analyse archival sources from the “capital of the Hittites”, which whether consciously or unconsciously silence other act- ing persons and I propose with examples using quantitative analyses on older excavation documentation how to identify them, their spaces and their histories.

    ISSN 0989-5671 2016 N°1 (mars) NOTES BRÈVES 1) On two Ebla lexical lists with personal names (MEE 3 67, 59) — [1] TM.75.G.1565 = MEE 3 67 – This small rounded tablet, published among the “esercizi scolastici” in PETTINATO 1981:261, is a “word list with personal names” for ARCHI 1992:14 (and see also CIVIL 1984:81 n. 10). For Pettinato “il testo si compone di due parti nettamente distinte tra loro: la prima parte (recto) contiene un elenco di parole sumeriche ordinate acrograficamente in base all’elemento iniziale nì-; la seconda invece (verso) abbraccia una serie di nomi di persona che contengono tutti l’elemento lugal- in prima posizione. Mentre la serie che inizia con nì- ricorda da vicino l’omonima serie dei testi lessical šè-bar-unken, la seconda va rapportata al testo [MEE 3] n. 59 r. II:1-7”. However, the comparison with TM.75.G.2014 = MEE 3 59 (see below) suggests that also in TM.75.G.1565 = MEE 3 67 the six personal names were instead written before the seven common nouns of the acrographic section ninda (and note not only “r.?” and “v.?” in the edition in PETTINATO 1981:261, but also the inversion of the obverse and the reverse in the photographs of the tablet in MEE 3, Tav.

  • HİTİTLER 2-HATTİ BEYLİKLERİ Ve ESKİ...Pdf
    • HİTİT SİYASİ TARİHİ • HATTİ BEYLİKLER DÖNEMİ Akrabalık Hükümdar Dönemi Önemli Olaylar Durumları Kusarra Kralı, Neşa Pithana M.Ö. 18. yüzyıl Fatihi Kusarra Kralı, Anitta Pithana'nın oğlu M.Ö. 17. yüzyıl Hattuşa'yı yıktı • Orta Anadolu'daki Hatti Beylikleri bir protohistorik (ön tarih) uygarlığıdır. Hattiler Anadolu'nun yerli halkıdır. Tahminen 3. binin ortalarından beri küçük krallıklar, beylikler halinde yani kent-devleti olarak idare ediliyorlardı. Anadolu'nun orta bölgelerinde ve güney doğusunda yerleşmişlerdi. Prof. Emin Bilgiç, güneydoğu Anadolu';da Hattice yer adları saptamıştır. Bu merkezler 2000 tarihlerinden itibaren teker teker Hititlerin eline geçtiler. Ancak yinede nüfusun çoğunluğunu oluşturuyorlardı. Anadolu Yarımadasının bilinen en eski adı "Hatti Ülkesi" dir. 1700 yıl boyunca bu isimle anıldı Anadolu. İlk olarak Mezopotamya kaynaklarında, Akkad Sülalesi Döneminde (2350- 2150) bu adlandırmaya rastlıyoruz. VII. yy. Asur kaynaklarına dek bu adlandırma kullanılmıştır. Bu isim öylesine yerleşmişti ki, 2000’lerde Anadolu’ya gelmeye başlayan Hititler bile yeni yurtlarından "Hatti Ülkesi" diye söz etmişlerdir. • M.Ö. 1800 yılları, Anadolu tarihinin başlangıcı yerli Aglutinant dil grubuna ait Hattiler ve Hint Avrupalı Hititler hakkında ilk bilgilerin edinildiği dönemdir. Bu çağ, Hitit kültürünün başlangıç ve gelişme aşamalarının kaynağıdır. M.Ö 2500-2000 yılları arasında Kuzey Kapadokya ve Orta Karadeniz bölgesinde gelişmiş kültürün temsilcisi Hattiler’di. Şehir devletleri tarafından yönetilen bu bölgenin müstahkem şehirleri, kral mezarları, hazineleri, Hatti kültürünün simgeleridir. • M.Ö 2000 yılları sonlarında büyük savaşlar sonucunda çıkan yangınlarla sona eren bu çağı, Asur Ticaret Kolonileri dönemi izler. Yazılı kaynaklardan Hititlerin, Anadolu’ya M.Ö. 3. binin son yıllarında, 2. binin başında küçük gruplar halinde, girmeye başladıkları ihtimali çıkmaktadır. Hititlerin Anadolu’ya geliş tarihi ve anavatanları ile kökenleri hakkındaki tartışmalar devam etmektedir.
