Home Page of Hatti: Association des Amis de la civilisation Hittite

"HATTI was officially born in November 1995 in Paris (France) with no mother but three fathers, three French students, who shared a common interest in the ancient Hittite civilization. As a cultural, non-profit association, HATTI was created to promote the study of this brilliant culture and also to be a warm and welcome place for every one interested in the history and archaeology of ancient Anatolia.Many activities were actually conducted in the year 1996, the two most important being a guided visit of the oriental Antiquities collection of the Louvre museum and a very instructing journey in Turkey where we had the opportunity to follow the steps of the ancient Hittites.But the year 1997 was still more important to us as it saw the first official publication of our newsletter HALUKA where every one, students and specialists, are able to express themselves in articles about different aspects of the Hittite culture. That year also inaugurated our appearance on the Internet.The following years 1998 and 1999 were the occasion for our newsletter HALUKA to develop by getting an international dimension. Unfortunately, the year 1999 was also the year we had to stop our activities.We do hope our association helped, and will still help through this web site, in promoting the studies in hittitology and contribute to spread our interest to more and more people."
