In a time of war and conquest,

they were the mightiest military power of their age —

a force that vanquished armies,
toppled empires,

a dynasty which expanded to become the first great kingdom of Asia Minor.

A state built on the most advanced legal system
of its time.

A civilisation that formed the cultural link between the ancient East and West.

A language that was the earliest example of all Indo-European languages.

A mythology that influenced Greek and Roman literature as well as the Bible.

Kings that fought the Pharoahs in the greatest battles of history.

Defiant, proud men and women who ruled the
Near East.

An empire that changed the Ancient World.

The Hittites

Kadesh 1274 BC

A momentous battle is fought between the two superpowers of the day.

On one side is the Egyptian army commanded by the legendary Ramesses II.

Confronting Ramesses is a force that instills fear in all its enemies,

but in time will become only an obscure footnote in the pages of history.

A civilisation forgotten for 3000 years

until stunning archaeological discoveries mark its rebirth.

Join us now as we reveal the history of this mighty people.

Resistance
is
Futile
