Its purpose is to bring into being an interdisciplinary field, Luwian Studies.1 This does not mean that it can provide one authoritative answer to the question “Who were the Luwians”. Our goal is rather to formulate this broad question in a way that will encourage cooperative work by researchers from different backgrounds, including textual schol- ars, linguists, philologists, and archaeologists. In order to see why this task is necessary, it seems appropriate to begin with reviewing what we actu- ally know about the Luwians. 1. Luwians and Hittites The earliest interest in the Luwians came from scholars of ancient Anato- lian civilizations. Although for many decades the Luwians have occupied a modest place in academic discourse, which was concentrated on their more illustrious neighbours, the Hittites, this situation is now changing. To a large extent, the previous bias was due to the peculiarities of termi- nological usage that gave unfair promotion to the Hittites over the Luwi- ans and the Hattians. It is a well-known fact that the cuneiform archives of the imperial capital Hattusa contain texts in seven different languages, one of which is now called Luwian. In this we follow the people that we call Hittites, because some of the Luwian passages embedded into the Hittite narrative are introduced by the Hittite form luwili ‘in Luwian’. This is a foreign des- ignation (an ‘exonym’), and we have no way of knowing what the Luwians called themselves. It is generally assumed that luwili is derived from the geographical name Luwiya, which is mentioned several times in the Hit- tite Laws, apparently as one of the territories under the jurisdiction of 1 The term Luwian has a variant ‘Luvian’, preferred by a number of linguists that are based or were educated in the USA. The first variant is consistently used throughout this volume, but the second one sometimes occurs in bibliographic references.
