C. W. Ceram, celebrated author of Gods, Graves, and Scholars, brings his signature narrative flair to the story of how scholars and adventurers pieced together the forgotten empire that once rivalled Egypt and Babylon at the height of its power. With the authority of a seasoned historian and the pace of a thriller writer, Ceram details the painstaking detective work of deciphering ancient cuneiform tablets, excavating the ruins of Hattusa, and reconstructing a sophisticated Bronze Age culture from the dust of Anatolia. The result is a sweeping and deeply engaging account that illustrates how archaeology can resurrect entire civilisations from the silence of millennia.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48888032264411,"sku":"2026100006735-SECONDHAND","price":25.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/5e16f09e-fcc0-450c-a14d-0d95e0948183.png?v=1781753451","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100006735-secondhand-narrow-pass-black-mountain-the-discovery-of-the-hittite-empire","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
