v. 1. "Ever since the early 2nd millennium BCE, Pre-Classical Anatolia has been a crossroads of languages and peoples. Indo-European peoples - Hittites, Luwians, Palaeans - and non-Indo-European ones - Hattians, but also Assyrians and Hurrians - coexisted with each other for extended periods of times during the Bronze Age, a cohabitation that left important traces in the languages they spoke and in the texts they wrote.
