Bibliogr. en fin de chapitres. Notes bibliogr.
This anthology presents twelve papers held in a session with the same title during the annual meeting of the European Association of Archaeology (EAA) in Bern in 2019. Taken together, the papers demonstrate that Western Anatolia in the Late Bronze Age (ca. 1700–1200 BC) was not simply a buffer zone between the other, better-studied regions and states of the north-eastern Mediterranean. Most archaeological textbooks had previously largely ignored the importance of western Asia Minor, instead viewing the region as a kind of conflict zone between the two major powers to the west (Mycenaean Greece) and to the east (Hatti). Rather, it was a distinct region with specific socio-political and cultural developments that was closely integrated into the political and economic networks of the time. Contemporary texts also suggest that the western Asia Minor was of great political and military importance, and that individual states and federations may have ultimately challenged Hittite hegemony over Anatolia.
