| Publisher Description: This English translation of the Hittite cult inventories provides a vivid glimpse of the religion, economy, and administration of Bronze Age provincial towns and villages of the Hittite Empire. These texts report the state of local shrines and festivals and document the interplay between central power and provincial communities on religious affairs. Brief introductions to each text make the volume accessible to both students and scholars. |
