THE HITTITES AND THE ARMENIANS: A MYSTERY OF ANCIENT HISTORY
“The language of the Hittite inscriptions is the native language of today’s Armenian language.” — attributed to Peter Jensen, Hittiter und Armenier (1898).
In 1898, German orientalist Peter Jensen explored linguistic connections between the ancient Hittites and Armenians, proposing a deep relationship between their languages and historical traditions.
His work reflected a bold scholarly ambition: to uncover the ancient roots of the Armenian Highlands and understand their place in the civilizations of the Bronze Age.
Jensen’s research remains a fascinating chapter in the history of Armenian historical and linguistic scholarship.
From the civilizations of ancient Anatolia to the enduring Armenian heritage, the past continues to inspire questions about the origins, identity, and cultural legacy of the Armenian people.
Armenia’s ancient history is a legacy worth exploring, preserving, and remembering.
