AnittaAnitta, son of Pithana, was a pre-Empire king of the Hittites. He reigned in the mid-18th century BC. He is mentioned by his descendent Hattusili I, the first Hittite king of Hattusa, in the so-called Anitta text (CTH 1.A), the oldest known text in the Hittite language (and the oldest known Indo-European text altogether). His name appears on an inscription on a dagger found in Kanish, and also, together with the name of his father Pithana, on various Kltepe texts, as well as in later Hittite tradition.
