The Hurrians, a people casually mentioned in books on ancient history and virtually nowhere else. It turns out that as a people and civilization, they were just as important and influential as many of the other, more well-known ones that we read about during the late Bronze Age: the Hittites, Egyptians, Assyrians and Babylonians. They made up the bulk of one of the ancient world's most powerful kingdoms/empires - the Mitanni. In this program, you'll get to learn a thing or two about the Hurrians and their impact on the ancient Near East.
