The aim of this program is to introduce participants to the history, script, and language of the Hittites—one of the most important ancient peoples of the Near East. The course will explore key aspects of Hittite political, social, and cultural life, along with the linguistic characteristics and archaeological evidence associated with them. Special emphasis will be placed on the cuneiform writing system and the Hittite language, the earliest attested Indo-European language known to date. Through the historical overview, the introduction to Hittite cuneiform script, and the analysis of their Indo-European language and tradition, participants will gain a comprehensive understanding of the Hittite kingdom and its role in the prehistoric world. Finally, the program aims at an interdisciplinary approach to highlight the cultural heritage of the broader geocultural zones of the Near East, the Caucasus, and the Balkans.
The program is taught in Greek.
