In this video, we delve into an amazing period of our ancient history by exploring the fascinating Hittite Kingdom. Journey back to the 17th century BC and discover the origins of the Hittites, a civilization that left an indelible mark on history with their power, military strategies, and rich culture.
We start by uncovering the beginnings of the Hittite Kingdom under the reign of Hattusili I, who established the central city of Hattusa, now known as Boğazkale. You will learn about the reigns of notable rulers such as Hattusili II and his son Mursili II, who expanded the kingdom and achieved important diplomatic and military achievements.
Dive into the intricacies of Hittite society, governed by a strict class system that included the royal family, nobility, officials, peasants, and slaves. The Hittites were pioneers in writing, using cuneiform script on clay tablets, and their remarkable craftsmanship in art and architecture is evidenced by the artifacts found in archaeological excavations at Hattusa.
Discover the military prowess of the Hittites, renowned for their innovative use of chariots in warfare. Learn how their strategic prowess allowed them to control vast areas and engage in significant battles, including the famous Battle of Kadesh against the Egyptians under Pharaoh Ramses III.
We also explore the decline of the Hittite Kingdom in the 12th century BC, caused by a combination of wars, economic difficulties, and internal strife. Despite their fall, the Hittites left a lasting legacy that influenced later civilizations through their language, culture, and military tactics. #hittitekingdom #history #hittite
