Can anyone explain to me who the Hittites were? & explain the Tawagalawa, Manapa-Tarhunta, & Milawata letters?

-Who were the Hittites and how does those letters relate to the Trojan war and can someone explain them to me?"From what we now can understand from the Hittite sources, the Arzawa land Wilusa, identified with the archaeological site of Troy, was a point of conflict between the Hittites and the Ahhiyawa. This provides a striking background for Homeric scholars researching the origin of the tradition of the Achaean attack on Ilios. There is every likelihood that the Iliad and the traditions of the Trojan War, however immortalized in epic narrative, do indeed preserve a memory of actual events of the Late Bronze Age."The Hittites were an ancient people speaking the Indo-European language. The settled in Asia Minor around 1900 BCE and conquered Babylon in 1590 BCE.

You are dealing with an age of 'mythology'. Myths of the day were part history and religious stories intertwined. It is difficult at times to discern one from the other.

I recommend you look into my sources for information on those letters.
