ANATOLIAN RELIGION

beliefs and practices of the ancient peoples and civilizations of Turkey and Armenia, including the Hittites, Hattians, Luwians, Hurrians, Assyrian colonists, Urartians, and Phrygians. For historical background, see Anatolia. Additional reading A. Gtze, Kleinasien, 2nd rev. ed. (1957, reprinted 1974), part of the series Handbuch der Altertumswissenschaft, is a classic work covering all periods of Asia Minor religion. Ekrem Akurgal and Max Hirmer, The Art of the Hittites (1962), provides an excellent presentation of Hittite and pre-Hittite art and iconography. Maurice Vieyra, Hittite Art, 2300750 B.C. (1955), is also useful. Seton Lloyd, Early Highland Peoples of Anatolia (1967), is a popular but excellent account of all periods, with many illustrations. Works on Hittite civilization and religion include O.R. Gurney, Hittite Kingship, in S.H. Hooke (ed.), Myth, Ritual, and Kingship: Essays on the Theory and Practice of Kingship in the Ancient Near East and in Israel (1958), pp. 105121, The Hittites, 2nd ed. rev. (1990), a general description, and Some Aspects of Hittite Religion (1977); and Hans G. Gterbock, Hittite Religion, in V. Ferm (ed.), Forgotten Religions (1950, reissued 1970), pp. 83109, and Hittite Mythology, in Samuel Noah Kramer (ed.), Mythologies of the Ancient World (1961, reprinted 1989), pp. 141179. James Mellaart, atal Hyk (1967), presents an illustrated account of the evidence from Catal Hyk and Hacilar. Franz Cumont, The Oriental Religions in Roman Paganism (1911, reprinted 1956), is a classic. A three-part study by E.N. Lane, A Re-Study of the God Men, Berytus, 15:558 (1964), 17: 1347 and 81106 (196768), offers a valuable summary of work on Men and Cybele. Oliver Robert Gurney
