Archaeological excavations at the 8,000-year-old ancient city of Hattusha in the Boğazkale district of Çorum, which started 118 years ago, are continuing this year with the participation of academics from various disciplines.

Excavations that started 116 years ago in the ancient city of Hattusa, once the capital of the Hittite Empire and inscribed on the "Memory of the World List" of UNESCO, are still ongoing.

The world premiere of the play 'Kybele,' adapted from Güngör Dilmen's work 'I am Anadolu,' was held at the Yazılıkaya Open Air Temple of Midas Monument, which was built by the Phrygian civilization 6,000 years ago in the Han district of the Central Anatolian province of Eskişehir and is on the UNESCO World Heritage Tentative List.

The archaeological sites in the Central Anatolian province of Çorum, home to the Hittite capital Hattusha and Alacahöyük, which has the title of Turkey's first national excavation area, are now empty due to the coronavirus pandemic and waiting to welcome excavation teams and visitors again.

The Central Anatolian province of Çorum, which is home to the Hittite capital Hattusha and the ancient site of Alacahöyük, Turkey's first national excavation field, expects to host half a million tourists a year after work carried out by the Culture and Tourism Ministry and the Çorum Governor's Office is completed. 

A Hittite village will be established in the Central Anatolian province of Çorum's Boğazkale in an effort to provide a taste of the ancient past.

A recreated Hittite village, which is set to be built in the Central Anatolian province of Çorum, home to the ancient site of Hattusha, will revive the life of the Hittite kingdom 3,500 years ago.
