Abstract
The Hittites and the empire which they founded in Asia Minor during the Middle Bronze Age is the subject of this book (written in Greek), which focuses on their interrelation with the Aegean. Concrete evidence is presented and analyzed on the presence and activity of Mycenaean Greeks in Anatolia, Pontus and Syros - Palestine during the second millennium BC. Political but also direct military involvement of the Mycenaeans in the controversies of Asia Minor stands out based on Hittite sources and other pieces of evidence, while the cultural interaction between the Aegean and the core of Asia Minor turns out to be almost as intense as that with coast Anatolia. Similarities and analogies are found in religion, script, architecture, art and other aspects of culture, as a result of mutual influences between the Hittites and the Aegean. The purpose of the book is to provide an objective picture of these interactions which developed between Aegean and Hittite culture during the Bronze Age.
