Synopsis

Excerpt from Hittite Seals: With Particular Reference to the Ashmolean Collection

It will be seen from my commentary in Chapter III that the arrangement of specimens in my plates is tentative and intended to be not too definite in many instances. I often suggest that a seal or group of seals may belong more appropriately to a different place in the series than that in which it is actually figured. In the present stage such fluidity of arrangement seems to me inevitable.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the captivating world of Hittite glyptic art, focusing on engraved objects like seals and amulets that offer valuable insights into this ancient civilization. The author emphasizes the importance of studying these artifacts not only for their artistic merit but also for their potential to date other archaeological remains and shed light on Hittite history. Spanning a vast period from 2000 to 600 BC, the book explores the evolution of Hittite glyptics across different ages, including the Primitive, Hattic, Moschian-Hattic, and Moschian-Assyrian periods. It delves into the complexities of dating and attributing these objects to specific regions within the broader Hittite area, which encompassed parts of Asia Minor and North Syria. The author meticulously analyzes the artistic styles and influences that shaped Hittite glyptics, drawing comparisons with Mesopotamian art and highlighting the impact of political and cultural exchanges. This book challenges existing assumptions about the chronology and origins of Hittite glyptic art, proposing a revised framework based on archaeological evidence and a deep understanding of the historical context. By examining the intricate details of these engraved objects, the author unveils the rich tapestry of Hittite civilization, its artistic achievements, and its enduring legacy. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
