Talk:List of Hittite kings
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Question for Dieter A. Bachmann : Why did you axe Piyusti? Is it because you consider him "Hattian" rather than Hittite? This is probably just a question of definition. The word "Hittite" derives from the kings of "Hattusa", which Piyusti was. Neither Pithana nor Anitta, on the other hand, ruled from Hattusa, and yet they remain on the list. (Anitta destroyed it, he did not rule from it. His connection to the later Hittite dynasty remains ambiguous.) Cheers. 69.109.169.10 17:29, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
