The decline of the Hittite civilization around the 12th century BCE is attributed to a combination of factors, including internal strife, economic difficulties, and invasions by the Sea Peoples. Additionally, the collapse of trade networks and the pressure from neighboring powers weakened their political and military structures. The eventual fall of their capital, Hattusa, marked the end of Hittite dominance in the region. This period of turmoil contributed to the wider Late Bronze Age collapse affecting several ancient civilizations.

Do Hittites still exist today?

The Hittites, an ancient civilization that thrived in Anatolia (modern-day Turkey) from around 1600 to 1200 BCE, do not exist as a distinct culture or society today. Their civilization collapsed, and over time, their language and identity were absorbed into other cultures in the region. However, the legacy of the Hittites persists through archaeological findings, historical texts, and the influence they had on subsequent cultures. Modern Turks and other groups in the region may carry some cultural and genetic heritage linked to the Hittites, but they are not direct descendants.
