'Boğazköy Museum' in the Hittite capital, Hattuşa

Boğazköy Museum, located in Hattusa, the capital of the Hittites, was transformed into an independent museum by the decision of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism. Archaeologist Resul İbiş has been appointed as the Director of Boğazköy Museum, which will carry out its work independently from the Çorum Museum. In the city, which was the capital of the Hittites, one of the largest empires of the world, it is planned that the tourism activities and museum services in the region will become more effective with the Bogazkoy museum gaining the status of an independent directorate. Alacahöyük Museum and archaeological site, Hattusa ruins and excavations in these areas will be carried out through Boğazköy Museum Directorate. Provincial Culture and Tourism Director Sümeyra Bektaş, explaining that 3 museums and 2 archaeological sites were provided as an organized excavation, said, “Boğazkale and Alacahöyük Museum Directorates were managed from the Çorum Museum. This caused the museology services not to be carried out very well. It was announced as a separate museum directorate with the consent of our Minister of Culture and Tourism. Resul İbiş, one of the experts of Çorum Museum, was appointed as the director of Boğazköy Museum. In the next period, excavations in Alacahöyük Museum and archaeological site, Hattusa ruins, and excavations in these areas will be carried out through Boğazköy Museum Directorate. Explaining that the Bogazkoy Museum will gain an independent status, museology and tourism activities will be carried out more effectively, Bektaş said, "Hattusa Ruins, which is on the UNESCO Cultural Heritage list, and Boğazköy Museum, where the cuneiform tablets on the World Cultural Memory list, where thousands of tablets are found, are also in the Hattusa ruins. Boğazköy, with its sphinxes, one of which was taken abroad for restoration purposes in Germany and brought back to our country and took its place in the museum, will carry out its next works as the Museum Directorate. We invite you to see the world heritage with the start of the tourism season.” Boğazköy Museum, which was opened on September 12, 1966, was reorganized in 2011. Artifacts unearthed during the excavations of the Hittite capital, Hattusa, are exhibited in the museum. Thematic and chronological exhibitions were held in the exhibition halls of Boğazkale Museum. The display order, which starts with the Chalcolithic, Old Bronze Age and Assyrian Trade Colonies Age works in the first hall of the ground floor, continues chronologically with the Phrygian, Galatian, Roman Periods and ends with the Eastern Roman Period. Two Sphinxes at the Sphinx Gate in the Ancient City of Hattusa were taken to Berlin to be restored in 1907, as they were badly damaged by the fire. After restoration, one of the sphinxes was returned to the Istanbul Archaeological Museums in 1924, and the other was kept in the Berlin Museums until 2011. Both sphinxes are on display at Boğazköy Museum since 26 November 2011. In the Hittite hall, which is entered through the door where the sphinxes are located, the state and social structure of the Hittites is explained with panels and artifacts with rich visuals. A stonemason from the Hittite period is depicted with animation in this area. On the upper floor of the Hittite hall, the religious and military structure of the Hittites, their writing system, materials from the excavations, panel information and visuals are explained. There is also a model of the Hattusa ruins and the great temple here. In the garden of the museum, sphinxes from the Hittite period, hieroglyphic inscriptions, milestones and tombstones from the Roman and Eastern Roman periods are exhibited.

Hattusa: The Ancient Capital of The Hittites

Hattusa, located in Türkiye’s Anatolian heartland province of Corum, is definitely worth visiting. The remnants of the Hittite Capital date back to the Bronze Age, around 2000 BC. The site was added to the UNESCO World Heritage list in 1986. The Hittites were a remarkable civilization. The kingdom stretched from the Aegean across Anatolia, northern Syria and to the Euphrates river. Hattusa is a wonderful Turkish tale of endurance, mystery and deeply layered history. Discovered only in 1834, Hattusa, the capital city of the Hittite Empire, had long been believed a myth. As excavation continues, more and more is being uncovered about this ancient city, those who lived there and how they interacted. We know they were already crafting tools and were a mighty military power in the age of horses and chariots - what else will be discovered? Archaeologists are still working to uncover more about the Hittites and their capital. Thus far, excavations have found extensive royal archives of clay tablets, known collectively as the Bogazkoy Archive. The tablets feature official correspondence, contracts, legal codes, ceremonial procedures, prophecies, peace settlements and literature of the time. In addition to the extensive clay documentation, a variety of large sculptures were discovered in the ancient capital. Exploring the Site The site is renowned for signs of significant urbanisation, varied types of construction and the ornamental structures like the Lions Gate and the Royal Gate which must have been very grand and imposing indeed. The city was surrounded by a huge wall, 8 km in length, with older walls found throughout the city and walls dividing the city into distinct districts. The city was heavily fortified, with a double wall, over 100 towers and 5 gateways including 3 richly decorated: the Lions Gate, the Kings Gate and the Sphinx Gate. Some of the walls of the Upper City feature the longest known Hittite hieroglyphic inscription from the Hittite Empire. Grand Temple Elsewhere in the city are the ruins of temples, the best preserved of which is in the Lower City. The Grand Temple, dates back to the 13th Century BC and is the biggest Temple found in the city. Yazılıkaya North of the capital is the rock sanctuary of Yazılıkaya. An open-air temple with two natural chambers cut into the bedrock, the walls of which are covered with the richest and most striking samples of Hittite relief art, featuring gods and goddesses and the figures of the Great King Tudhaliya IV. Kayalı Boğaz Kayalı Bogaz, mentioned in cuneiform inscriptions (found in the Bogazkoy Archive), is a large fortified settlement. Due to its proximity to the capital, it is thought that Kayali Bogaz may have served as an outpost of the city in order to watch and control the roads to the city. İbikçam Forest The İbikcam Forest is a representation of one of the dense forests covering the mountains to the south of the capital in Hittite times. The People of Hattusa Evaluation of the site, its significance and its role in the region, suggests the population may have been around 50.000. With the inner city likely housing one third of the total population. Dwellings were built with timber and mud bricks and thus, have vanished from the site. Clues about the life and times of ordinary Hittites are chiefly found in the clay tablets of the Bogazkoy Archive. Hattusa is a fascinating example of a Bronze Age city and its people. To have endured for millennia as it has is a true testament to the might of the Hittites. Source: goturkiye.com
