Overview

About this book

Between 2007 and 2009, a structure was uncovered on a strategically propitious plateau in the Hittite capital city Hattusa, which was the likely residence of the commander of the King’s guards. The architecture and relics have provided insight into the life of the Hittite elite. Byzantine artefacts suggest that the town was larger in the 10th century AD and had contact with other regions.
