Explorations in Central Anatolia, Season of 1926 presents an exhaustive account of archaeological fieldwork conducted in the heart of the Turkish peninsula. Led by Hans Henning von der Osten, this volume documents the systematic survey and discovery of ancient sites, with a primary focus on the legacy of the Hittite Empire and other early civilizations of the region. The narrative follows the expedition as it identifies mounds, fortifications, and inscriptions that provide vital clues to the historical geography of the Anatolian plateau.

Rich in detail, the work offers a professional look at early 20th-century field methods, combining topographic observations with the study of material culture. Readers will find in-depth analysis of pottery fragments, architectural remains, and the strategic positioning of ancient settlements. As an essential contribution to Near Eastern studies, this record captures a pivotal moment in the rediscovery of the Hittite heartland. It serves as an invaluable resource for historians, archaeologists, and anyone interested in the complex cultural tapestry of Central Turkey and the ancient Near East.
