The first written treaty of the World Kadesh happened during a sun eclipse just during the battle between Hittites and Eygptians 1250 BC and one copy of it is in United Nations building in New York and it was in Kadesh the plain in central southeastern Turkey. Also the battle and Treaty mentioned in pyramid of Tutankamun pharos' grave depicted. The day became deark totally and they were so scared all said gods were anger of this battle and they signed by the force of nature and knew nothing probably of sun eclipse.

Hard to beat old world drama ... Tuts queen wants to marry a Hittite prince in hopes of gaining an ally in military power. The young man is assassinated and the father sends his armies to thrash the Egyptians ... The Queen's almost always get what they want one way or another. I have always thought Tut was killed by his ruling priest class. So the whole scenario makes sense to me that his queen would get her revenge.

"The state is concerned primarily with the preservation of law and order, and must therefore at the outset endeavor to set a limit to private vengeance and eventually to eliminate it altogether." [The Hittites, O.R. Gurney, 1966] "In this respect Hittite law is comparatively advanced. retribution plays an inconspicuous part in comparison with the principle of restitution. The only capital offenses are rape, sexual intercourse with animals, and defiance of the authority of the state; also, if the offender is a slave, disobedience to his master and sorcery." [The Hittites, O.R. Gurney, 1966] "Both version make a careful distinction between killing in anger and killing accidentally; but it is curious that the only case which we should describe as willful murder is mentioned in connexion with a merchant, who seems to be treated rather in a class by himself, and is associated with the motive of robbery. The absence of a specific clause dealing with murder has been noticed also in both the code of Hammurabi and in the Assyrian laws. The crime is treated at length in the Israelite code, but we see from such passages as Deuteronomy xix. 12 that the Hebrew judicial authority ties had nothing to do with the murderer except to hand him over to the vengeance of the go-el, the 'redeemer', i.e. the next of kin." [The Hittites, O.R. Gurney, 1966] "In primitive society punishment is synonymous with revenge, & is impossible to distinguish 'civil' from 'criminal' offenses. The injured party will avenge himself as best he can upon the wrongdoer, or if he is dead, vengeance becomes the duty of his relatives, & there then arises a blood-feud. The matter may, however, be settled by payment of money if the parties can agree to this; such a payment is known as 'COMPOSITION'.... The blood-feud still survived in the Hittite Old Kingdom is clear from the following passage in the Edict of Telipinus: The rule of blood is a follows. Whoever commits a deed of blood, whatever the 'lord of blood (i.e., the Hebrew go'el) says-if he says 'Let him die', he shall die; but if he says 'Let him make restitution', he shall make restitution: the king shall have no say in it. The practice of giving 'persons' as part of the COMPOSITION for manslaughter is remarkable. The expression is that generally used for slaves. Perhaps such slaves were slain at the tomb of the deceased, as in some other ancient societies." [The Hittites, O.R. Gurney, 1966, Ch. Laws & Institutions, §. 3: Retribution & Restitution, p. 94-98] ""... its striking resemblance to the 'Theogony' of the Greek poet Hesiod. There the Earth (Gaia) gives birth to Heaven (Uranos); then Uranos and Gaia together become the parents of Kronos and the Titans. Uranos hates his children and seeks to prevent their birth, but Kronos, incited by Gaia, emasculates his father with a sickle, and out of the blood which flows comes forth the Erinyes (Furies), the Giants, and the Melian nymphs, while Aphrodite is born from the foam what's arises when the severed member falls into the sea. Kronos and his wife Rhea then beget the Olympian gods, foremost among whom is Zeus. Kronos swallows all his children except Zeus, who is saved by the substitution of a stone which Kronos swallows instead of him. Zeus, on growing to manhood, forces Kronos to spit out the gods whom he has swallowed, and the stone, which comes out first, is set up as a cult-object at Pytho (Delphi). The poem ends with the Battle of the Gods and Titans and the final victory of the Olympians. Hesiod's sequence Uranus-Kronos-Zeus is matched in the hittite version by the sequence: Anu (Sumerian 'an'= heaven)- Kumarbi, father of the gods,- Weather-god, though Alalu in the Hittite version represent a still older generation unknown to Hesiod. The emasculation of the Sky-god occurs in both myths, though the motif of the swallowing and spitting out seems to have become attached to a different incident. In the broken part of the tablet there is some reference to Kumarbi eating and to a stone which may possibly correspond to the Pythian 'omphalos' of Hesiod's version; & it is probable that the Hittite myth ends with the victory of the Weather-god. These points of resemblance are enough to establish a strong probability that both versions derive ultimately from the same Hurrian myth. The 'Song of Ullikummi'..."" [The Hittites, O. R. Gurney, 1966, Ch. VIII. LITERATURE; §. Myths, Legends, & Romance, p. 190-191]

"We have now to deal with the paradoxical fact that, whereas the Hittites appear in the Old Testament as a Palestinian tribe, increasing knowledge of the history of the ancient people of Hatti has led us even farther from Palestine, until their Homeland has been discovered in the heart of the Anatolian plateau. ..." [The Hittites, O.R. Gurney, 1966, p. 59] "The presence of Hittites in Palestine before the Israelite Conquest thus presents a curious problem. So far from explaining it, all our accumulated knowledge of the people of Hatti has only made it more perplexing..." "We must also consider the passage Joshua i. 2-4, where Yahweh says to Joshua: 'Arise, go over this Jordan, thou, and all this people, unto the land which I do give to them, even to the children of Israel. ... from the Wilderness, and this Lebanon, even unto the Great River, the river Euphrates, and all the land of the Hittites, and unto the great sea towards the going down of the Sun, shall be your border.' This command does not make sense. The country between the Lebanon and the Euphrates was not across the Jordan for the Israelites at that time - their tents were pitched in the plains of Moab - nor was it ever occupied by them. In fact, they crossed the Jordan and occupied the hill-country of Judea - precisely the country attributed to the Hittites in Numbers xiii. 29. If we omit the words 'from the wilderness oh, and this Lebanon, even unto the Great River, the river Euphrates' the passage at once becomes intelligible. The addition of these words is easily explained as a gloss by a late writer to whom the name Hittite meant the Neo-Hittite kingdoms of Syria, the Hittites of the Judean hills having long since disappeared." [The Hittites, O.R. Gurney, 1966, p. 59-60]

By the way, interestingly enough, you can see how long the Egyptians had controlled the area of ​​Canaan (Israel) - so the story with Moses Exodus can't be quite right, at least in terms of timing?! Did the Israelites flee Egypt to settle in Egyptian-controlled territory? Abraham's mother is said to have been a Hittite, his father an Aramean - both in today's Turkish-Syrian border area (today Kurdish territory).

[@chalinofalcone871]

Unfortunately Herodotus does not give the native names of other Scythian tribes, but calls them Ploughers, Husbandmen , Man eaters, and Black robes. He has said enough, however, to indicate without any doubt the fact that the so-called Scythians were Hittites with a few intermingled Celtic and Japhetic tribes. The customs of the Scythians as described by him are those of many of the Siberian and American aborigines. Such are the burial of their kings and great chiefs under huge mounds, the scalping of their slain enemies, the use of the vapour bath, and the setting up a stuffed horse-hide on stakes beside a warrior's grave. The cloak generally black and the capuchin like head -dress attached to it, as figured in tombs at Kertch and elsewhere in the Scythian area, correspond with the Hittite attire set forth in carvings in Asia Minor, and agree with the dress of the ancient Mexican priests as described by native authors. The trowsers depicted on the Kertch figures must have been borrowed from the Celts, from whom those Persians who were not Celts adopted them. .... The story of the Etruscans brings them from Lydia by sea to the Tyrrhenian coast, and that of the Messapian Japygians of Apulia is that they came in the same way from the island of Crete.6 But according to Latin tradition the Umbrians were among the oldest inhabitants of Italy and predecessors of the Etruscans ;they are also said to have dwelt originally far north in Cisalpine Gaul, out of which they were driven by the Boii, Senones, and more recent Celtic colonists."

Hittites are Circassians

[@gelbsan]

Lol, none of you are correct. Hittites were indo-europeans who come from north west eurasia

[@YouTubeUniversity-ko8ug]

@@gelbsan Among the Circassians are the people of the Hattians, or the Hattians, singular of which is Hat, and also the Hittites, and this is evidenced by the following: 1- It was proven from research into the sarcophagi and coffins of the dead of the Hittites that were made by the ancient Egyptians and preserved in Egypt, and from examining the faces and composition of the skeletons of these dead people, and from their clothes, costumes, and beliefs, that it became clear that they were Circassians without dispute. 2- The Mekhi script, which was invented and used by the Hittites, is still used by the Circassians as insignia and signs for families, clans, and tribes. 3- The remainder of the Hittite language, despite its scarcity, fully applies to the Circassian language and is in harmony with it, and there is no significant difference between them. 4- The English scholar “Sayce” and the historian “Le Normand” as well as the French scholar “Morgan” confirmed, after deciphering the Hittite writing, that the Hittites were Circassians, and clarified that the Hittites did not come to the Caucasus after the disintegration of their empire, which extended and included Asia Minor, Mesopotamia, and Syria up to the Egyptian borders. Indeed, they inhabited their homeland and original country, the Caucasus, before this great expansion and the formation of their empire. Its golden age in the Caucasus was in the fifteenth century BC, and their greatest king in the Caucasus was " A. Etes. It was mentioned in the myth of the “Argonauts” among the ancient Greeks. Accordingly, the Circassians are among the ancient nations, like the Egyptians, the Chinese, the Phoenicians, and others. The Greeks benefited from the Hittite civilization and made it the basis of their city. Some researchers mentioned that the ancient Circassian writing has a relationship with the forms and drawings of the first Phoenician writing, and that a close relationship linked the ancient Circassians since the beginning of the second millennium BC with the people of Phoenicia, especially “Byblos,” and this relationship continued for a long period of time, and one of the most famous Hittite figures is In this role are King “Maozir,” King “Mautor,” and the great poet “Panshawar.”

The Hittites, one of the many reasons we know the Bible is the living Word of God. Long before modern man had discovered a shred of archeological evidence for the Hittites, the Bible told us that they were a civilization around at the time of Abraham. What was once a reason for atheists to attack the Bible, has become yet another reason to trust what the Bible says is true. Then Abraham rose from beside his dead wife and spoke to the Hittites. He said, “I am a foreigner and stranger among you. Sell me some property for a burial site here so I can bury my dead.” The Hittites replied to Abraham, “Sir, listen to us. You are a mighty prince among us. Bury your dead in the choicest of our tombs. None of us will refuse you his tomb for burying your dead.” Then Abraham rose and bowed down before the people of the land, the Hittites. -Genesis 23: 3-7 Whoever believes in Jesus has eternal life, but whoever rejects Jesus will not see life, for God’s wrath remains on them. -John 3: 36 I hope you will consider the great importance of your eternal soul. God bless you.

[@Atilla963]

Polat Kaya: This citation states that: “The Hattic "Hattus" now became Hittite "Hattusa", and the king took the name of Hattusili I, the "one from Hattusa". I must note that, if the Hittite name HATTUSILI means “one from HATTUSA”, it means so because this word is a pure TURKISH word! This we see from the suffix “LI” at the end of the name HATTUSILI. The Turkish suffix “LI” means “from; of”. The name HATTUSİLİ is like present Turkish sayings such as ANKARALI, SİVASLI, KAYSERİLİ, etc. All of these mean “one from Ankara, one from Sivas, and one from Kayseri respectively. Please note that this does not mean that these people were different tribes with different languages. Thus, this HATTI word of some 4000 years ago is unquestionable evidence that the Hattians were Turkish speaking Tur/Turk/Oguz peoples - contrary to all kinds of mythological terms given in the Bible or anywhere else! Additionally, the name HITTITE, voiced as “HITTAYT”, is a modern concoction that is fabricated from a Turkish expression intended to replace the old Turanian word HATTI (KHATTI). In other words, the term HITTITEis an Aryanized form of the name HATTI. Actually, when we decipher the name HITTAYT (HITTITE) by rearranging its letters as “HATTI-TY”, we find that the term HITTITE is really the altered, restructured and alienated form of the Turkish name “HATTİ’Dİ” (HATTI İDİ) meaning “it was Hatti”. This alone indicates that the modern name HITTITE was concocted from the name HATTI into HITTITE. In other words, the original was Turanian AKHATETE (which has been “interpreted” as KHATTI) but the “scholars” who supposedly read these ancient KHATTIAN texts simply changed the name into HITTITE and claimed it as “Indo-European”! Thus, the so-called name HITTITE is another Aryan term fabricated from Turkish. The meaning of this is that the Hatti empire continued on as a HATTI empire but modern scholars changed the name HATTI to HITTITE and labelled the whole thing as an “Indo-European Empire” to suit their purposes (i.e., painting the ancient Turanian world as an Aryan and Jewish world). Such modern labelling, some 4000 years after the event, changes the history of ancient Anatolia artificially into an “Aryan” or “Indo-European” dominated land rather than a land that was populated by the native Turanian Tur/Turk/Oguz peoples. Since what they did has not been questioned all this time, what they throw in - stayed in - thus giving the impression that what they say was true some 4000 years ago. Continuous propaganda of their concocted falsehood - conditions the unquestioning public into concluding that there was an “Indo-European” Empire in the heart of Turanian Anatolia. The truth is that there was no “Indo-European” languages until the wanderer Aryan priests artificially fabricated them from the much older Turkish language. One example of this is the wanderer Semite priests fabricating “Accadian and Assyrian” languages from the much older Turko-Sumerian language. Recently we have another example of such falsehood stating that “All Indo-European languages originated from Anatolia”. The intensive media propaganda presentation of this so-called “linguistic research of the Indo-European languages” by means of some computer manipulations is well implanted in the minds of the public - as if what was said was the truth. Actually, they would have been speaking the truth if they had labelled their paper as “All Indo-European languages originated from the ancient Turanian language of Turkish”. Finally, I point the reader to Isaiah 65:17 where the sovereign lord Jehova (YHWA) has said: ‘FOR HERE I AM CREATING NEW HEAVENS AND A NEW EARTH; AND THE FORMER THINGS WILL NOT BE CALLED TO MIND, NEITHER WILL THEY COME UP INTO THE HEART.’ Translated into simple terms, this means “I AM ERASING FROM HISTORY THE ANCIENT TURANIAN WORLD AND INSTALLING IN ITS PLACE A SEMITIC WORLD”. But the later Aryans also took the same concept and ran with it - with the so-called Christianity! Polat Kaya 2013-07-05

@@narienzawity862 Wrong Turks were already in Anatolia. It is from us. The God of the thora and bible, blessed, we Oğuz Turks from Kanturah above all families on earth. Thus, we didn't came in 1071. Western fairytale lies. You didn't even read that book before you commented. What a stupidity. What a stupid uneducated hate. Grow up, be a man. The Children of Keturah as the Realization of God’s Blessing to Abraham Gen. 26 lists the six children that Keturah bore to Abraham: Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak, and Shuah, to which the midrash applies the verse (Ps. 1:3): “and whatever he does prospers” (Gen. Rabbah 61:1). These offspring express the fulfillment of the blessing given by God to Abraham in Gen. 12:3: “and all the families of the earth shall bless themselves by you,” for thirty families came from Abraham: the twelve chieftains from Ishmael, the sixteen descendants of Keturah, and (Gen. 25:23) “two nations are in your womb” (Tanhuma [ed. Buber], Hayyei Sarah 8). The Rabbis further learn from Abraham that even if a man has children while he is young, he should still take another wife in his old age and beget further offspring (Gen. Rabbah 61:3). All of Keturah’s sons were the heads of nations (Gen. Rabbah 61:5). The Meaning of the Name “Keturah” The name Keturah lends itself to a number of Rabbinic interpretations. She was perfumed (mekuteret) with commandments and good deeds (Gen. Rabbah 61:4); she was (through her good deeds) more savory (mekuteret) than all manner of spices (Pirkei de-Rabbi Eliezer [ed. Higger], chap. 29); her deeds were as fine as incense (ketoret-Tanhuma, Hayyei Sarah 8). An additional explanation gives this word the meaning of binding or sealing (keshurah). When a person secures his valuables with his seal, they are still shut when he opens his treasury. Thus, even though Abraham sent Hagar forth and she wandered in the wilderness, when he brought her back she remained chaste and no other man had known her, for which she was known as Keturah (Gen. Rabbah 61:4).
