Michaël Lejeune YA WELL DONT JUDGE CAUSE THEY AINT THAT.
Michaël Lejeune always a Slayer joke to be had.
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.
In THERE empire?
Can u do one on the tribes of the berber people. I'm not sure if that's how u say it but thanks and great video bro keep up the good work
Also, I hear a lot about Ta-sati from certain "history channel" 🙄 on RUclips and I failed to find any reliable sources to answer my questions.

Speaking of the bronze age empire of the Chinese would be cool too
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.
Same. Here in vn they didn't even mention the hittite. We only know the hittite exist because of aoe
I remember being a history buff since the 6th grade and now I observe how hallow the knowledge of ancient history we learn on the School, we only pass quickly by egypt, mesopotamia, greek, rome and just it, ver sad(mt triste)
E francamente, se falar sobre os Heteus/Hititas ninguém vai saber o que é, a antiguidade é muito subestimada
Any good civ games?
In the video he is showing wrong people Assyrian like people as Hittites and the other that come after just like people do with Israelites and Greeks of old ! . now adays its all over the place you do not know who is who any more
Nice!! I figured this video might be on the way. Awesome stuff. Gotta love those Hittites.
I do love be some Hittities
Hittites were Armenians... Georgians to this day call Armenians by that name.
@@vahekhar3230 georgians call armenians "somekhi"-სომეხი, what means south people. Nothing in commun with Kheta people. I do not pretend about Hittit People descendence or something like that but, in our phonetique it existes "Khatuna"-female name (also turkish "Katun" or "Khatun") and "zemokheti" and "qvemokheti" high and low Kheta (both small willages)... Strange thing but, it existes.

Hittitology student here: nice work! It's rare to find good and accurate content on the Hittites online, but you did very well with this video. Thank you for bringing my favourite civilisation to a wider audience!
PS: This is a bit nitpicky, but while Muršili II lost his wife and two brothers within the same year, it's unknown whether these deaths were caused by the plague or not. In his wife's case, it's likely it was something else, since her death was attributed to Muršili's stepmother cursing her.
PPS: Shameless self-promotion: I post recordings of ancient languages on my RUclips channel, and have a couple of recordings of Hittite if you want to hear what it sounded like :)

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!

Thanks for putting that together. I'd just read an article about the Hittites' war chariots, and I was interested in learning something about the Hittites - but not so interested that I wanted to watch an hour-long documentary. So this was perfect.
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.
And then history pulls a Franz Ferdinand.
Also, the auto-captions are Korean for some reason.
@@someguy2744 oh that's so
Why didn't the Pharoah 's widow just find a prince within Egypt?
The Bronze Age really feels like something out of a sword and sorcery novel

Or maybe it’s the other way around 😅
Swords and sandals
From what I have read, for a very long time, the Hittites were virtually forgotten by the world and the only source that mentioned them came from the Bible until the archaeologists started rediscovering Hittite architectures in Anatolia.
True..the Bible talks about the neo-Hittites...the descendants of the Empire
The rediscovery of the Hittites actually began with Hittite sculpture rather than architecture. European scholars discovered Hittite rock reliefs in Syria and believed that they were Hittite, but had no proof of it until the translation of the Hittite texts.
I’m brand new to this channel and really really loving it. This whole series really fills in the gap I’ve had about the Bronze Age!
Thank you! Glad you are enjoying it Isabel

Hittite jumpscare.
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.

Lets give it up for Supiluliyuma and the hittites! With their smash hit: money, women and gold.
Your bronze age videos are my favorite.
Mine too.
The Hittites only had two songs in the charts and often used sessionists for the more difficult solos.
Ghost musicians?
That's why they're often called "The Shittites"
Informative, beautiful and very nicely done, 10 minutes of happiness on a wonderful subject...Makes me want to repaint my Hittite figurines army ... and to subscribe ...Done 👍👍👍

Go on, you know you want to.
I was waiting for your new bronze age video and I saw this uploaded 3 minutes ago. Thank you, keep doing your great job 🙂.
Amazing video. Just excellent. The Hittites are some of my favorite civilizations to study. Their chariots were so awesome, just think about the chariot is awesome. I learned today they were even more interesting. Also, its funny how some people are nearly hyper realistic paintings and some are stickmen in your videos. Great art
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?
You make spectacular vids my friend
Just found your channel. Glad I did! You're very thorough and wellread, my friend!

@lobsterbale Legesse really? I always saw them as Asiatic middle-easterns...
@lobsterbale Legesse They were Caucasoid people.
@lobsterbale Legesse What do you mean they were "described" as proto-mongoloid on Egyptian walls? If you're referring to their eye shapes.....the Egyptians had a way of exaggerating facial features so that the eyes appeared at time to be very slanted and almost shaped, ALMOST mongoloid. But not every Caucasian has big round eyes like the Greeks tended to have!
There is no evidence that the Hittites had anything to do with the mongoloid race. Mongoloids have a different history from Europeans and Western Asiatics and a completely different culture, as a whole.
I love all these ancient civilizations. I always see the Elamites on your videos, but haven't found a video about them.

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…
Fascinating documentary! The Hittite Empire is often overshadowed by other ancient civilizations, but this video does a great job of highlighting their significance in history. I loved learning about their military prowess and the famous Battle of Kadesh. It's incredible how much influence they had in shaping the ancient world. Thanks for bringing this to light!
Great video! I’ve been loving this Bronze Age series! It would seem that someone’s been reading Eric Cline’s book, “1177 BC: The Year Civilization Collapsed.”
Great video. Packed with clear informtion and super helpful graphics. Well done.
I don't know why exactly, but Suppilulma is a name I can't say with a straight face.
KTChamberlain I am betting you would be able to manage a straight face if you were suddenly in Suppilulma's court, prostrate before his throne, with all his court torturers rubbing their fingers while looking at you. It is all just a matter of perspective!
"Subbiluliuma". Or if you must, "Suppiluliuma". But the most recent Hittite scholarship trying to figure out how to pronounce Hittite words leans towards voiced ('b') consonants when internal to a word, and voiceless ('p') at the beginning or end of a word.
And the reason you can't say it with a straight face is because it's funny as hell. :-)
Next up for don't laugh: Pudu-Hepa, wife of Hattusili (or Haddusili) III.

Bramble451 Puda-Hepa was Babylonian wasn’t she?

So good dude. Your content is gripping.
The Hittites descendants were eventually conquered and assimilated by the Greeks of Asia Minor. They were the Byzantine Greeks of the middle ages. The Byzantine Greeks were eventually conquered by the central Asian Muslim Turks. Most of these Byzantine Greeks (also known as Anatolian Greeks) converted to Islam and Turkish speech during Ottoman rule and became today's Turks, those Anatolian Greeks who resisted the conversion to Islam retained regional identities (like Cappadocian Greeks for example) were sent to Greece during the Population exchange between Greece and Turkey in 1923.
It explains why many Turks are born with brown or ginger hair.
Saddam Hussein well I mean it’s clear they’re not the same as other Turkic populations
I thought Kurds were the Hittites and Armenians
@@SAINTHOAX-sm1nw No the Kurds are an Iranian people likely very closely connected to the Ancient Persians and perhaps the Ancient Medes. Before the Middle Ages there were literally no Kurdish population of any significance in Anatolia, they have no connection to the Hittites whatsoever. The Armenians on the other hand are a people of the southern Caucasus not Anatolia, they also have no connection with Hittites. The descendants of the Hittites (at least in part) are the Anatolian Greeks (For example Google Cappadocian Greeks) and the Anatolian Turks who descend from Anatolian Greek converts to Islam.
Races Of Mankind Armenians are from the Armenian Highland, today eastern Anatolia and Southern Caucasus. Armenians are descendants of the people of Urartu. Hittite and Mitanni ancestry is speculation.

Very interesting encapsulation of Hittite history. Done in only 10 minutes it was excellent.
I visited the Hittite capital and satellite sites a few years ago. Great place to visit, as is Turkey in general. You can wander around the sites, mostly unrestricted. Bogazakale town, which has a nice museum and accommodations, is right next to the capital, very close to Yazilikkaya, and not too far from Alacahoyuk. Highly recommended (along with Gordium, Catalhoyuk, and Gobekli Tepe -- other ancient places in Turkey that are not as tourist-frequented).
I would love to visit that sooooo much. I visited Turkey a few years ago for a couple weeks and loved it. But I did not get to see any Hittite sites...I did see artifacts in the museum though which was really cool.
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!
I really love everything about this channel! Wish I could see your presentation of the Hebraic and Israelite people who ended up becoming the Jews, the Christians and the Muslims. I know that you like to cover uncover overlooked histories but I'm sure there are aspects of history that are perpetually overlooked. I especially would like to know the connection between the Hebraic people, Sumerian, Hittites, Assyrians, Babylonians, Phoenicians, Canaanite people's & Persians, pre-Islamic Arabians...
The Israelites used to go to war against the hittites
Your videos are great and informative. I really enjoy watching them and hearing your other voices representing the group you are primarily talking about. The Archaeological history about the Hittites is equally astonishing. Very few people know today that around one or two hundred years ago, the Hittites, were considered fables in the Old Testament as there was no real record of their existence until Archaeology proved their existence. 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.
I first found out about Hittites in age of empires 1 demo campaign. I was starting high school back then and I never heard about them before and the information was hard to come by, since they weren't famous like Sumerians or Egyptians.
The same as i. Since the aoe1 demo these where my favourite ancient culture and i am looking forward to play as them in Total War Pharao

"His single act of mercy united the land of Hattu." That really is the kind of thing you read in a legend, not real life. Sometimes it really hits me that this IS the Time of Legend for our own real world.
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.

Very informative. Just wanted to state that the illustration of the Hittites in your video cover remind of the members of the band System of a Down. Maybe they later migrated to Armenia and turned to eating seeds as a pastime activity.

Why do they all have skullet haircuts?
"than known as Halab" a bit of a meaningless assertion as it's still called Ḥalab.
Yeah
Good video nonetheless
Most Americans don't even know Sumer even existed, and refer to Babylon as some kind of shit hole slaver capital that was destroyed by the gods.
Great video, once more. Thank you!
Very good. Lots of info packed into a 10 min vid 👍🏽

An amazing empire.
The Bronze Age has always been fascinated me if I could time travel and simply observe like a fly on the wall that’s where I’d go
GREATEST CHANNEL OF RUclips. YOU ARE AMAZING !!!
It's interesting that for hundreds of years historians and archaeologists said the absence of the Hittites in any writing except the Bible was proof positive that the Bible was false, now evidence of the Hittites can be found everywhere.
But the hitties is up in anatolia and the Neo-Hitties was mentioned.
EmpireTV(Dragon) they were still Hittites. Just the last remnant of them. They were wiped out by the conquests of the Neo-Assyrian empire. Lost to history until rediscovered in the early 20th century.
No one says that. The existence of the Hittites have been chronicled by archaeologists and historians for years.
@@Coach_BigMac Really, even during the early 1800's this was a topic of heated debate among scholars. During the late 1900 century when Archibald Henry Sayce attributed finds at recent dig sites to the Biblical Hittites he was ridiculed.
@Hubris the world is flat too right?

Loved the video man! Always great to see new history channels popping up.
When you tell the chronology of any events , do give the time period as well.
You just tell the story but at majority of places don't tell what year you are talking abt.
with reference to Time and Year it become easy to understand and remember the story in chronological way.
