Hi guys, I now have some things about the Hittites on my blog, as well as a note om my trip to see Ötzi. His people worked copper, so that makes them honourary bronze-agers to me. There might be a few more bronze age posts in the next year but we will see. |

Hittite instruction literature gives some wonderful glimpses of everyday life, even though like any other regulations you have to ask whether they were followed.(Albrecht Goetze tr., in Ancient Near Eastern Texts Relating to the Old Testament 3rd edition (1969) p. 208) I think that there were some smooth operators amongst the temple servants at Hattuša. |
