The book focuses on the findings from archaeological expeditions that expose the once-forgotten civilizational heritage of the Hittites in Asia Minor and Northern Syria. It aims to fill the gaps in understanding the Hittite history, art, and culture that significantly influenced the ancient Near East. At the start of the work, the author introduces the geographical, historical, and cultural complexities surrounding the Hittite civilization. He discusses the lands they inhabited, which are primarily defined by notable mountain ranges, river systems, and archaeological sites. The opening chapters present an overview of the Hittite territories, highlighting their strategic location between influential empires and positing that their mountainous origins shaped their unique culture and historical interactions. The rich description lays the foundation for exploring various Hittite monuments and sites that shaped the narrative of this ancient civilization.
