What happened to the mighty Hittite Empire and why did the world of the Bronze Age crumble into chaos? Step into a world where empires rivaled the power of Egypt and Babylon, where trade stretched from Anatolia to Greece, Egypt, and beyond, and where the streets of once-great cities thrived with wealth, art, and innovation. And then, almost overnight, it all vanished.
In Forgotten Thrones of Anatolia: The Sea Peoples, Fallen Cities, and Hatti’s Last Survivors, historian Samuel Whitby unravels the gripping story of the Hittites-their rise, their grandeur, and their mysterious disappearance during the cataclysmic Bronze Age Collapse. Discover how droughts, famine, earthquakes, tin shortages, and the fearsome invasions of the Sea Peoples converged to shatter civilizations that had endured for centuries.
What you’re about to uncover will change how you see the ancient world: from the desperate relief deals between Queen Puduhepa and Ramesses II, to early experiments with iron and possibly steel that challenged the very monopoly of military power.
