Hittite music is the music of the Hittites of the 17th-12th century BC and of the Syro-Hittite successor states of the 12th-7th century BC. Understanding of Hittite music is based on archaeological finds and literary source material. Hittite texts mainly describe the use of music in religious contexts. The basic musical elements were instrumental music and singing, as well as shouting and other noises, like clapping. Because of the small amount of evidence, Hittite music is poorly understood compared to Mesopotamian and Egyptian music of the same period.

  • Als Hethitische Musik wird die Musik des Hethitischen Reichs aus dem 17.–12. Jahrhundert v. Chr. und der späthethitischen Nachfolgestaaten des 12.–7. Jahrhunderts v. Chr. bezeichnet. Als Zeugnisse hethitischer Musik stehen sowohl archäologische Funde als auch Schriftquellen zur Verfügung. Hethitische Texte beschreiben vor allem die Verwendung von Musik in religiösem Kontext. Grundlegende musikalische Elemente waren Instrumentalmusik und Gesang. Hinzu kamen Rufe und Geräusche, etwa durch Klatschen. Aufgrund der Überlieferungslage ist über hethitische Musik weniger bekannt als für die gleichzeitige Musik Mesopotamiens und des Alten Ägypten. (de)
