Summary
Chapter 10 synthesises the central conclusions to be drawn from the analyses of preceding chapters with regards to the Hittite case study and early imperial networks more broadly. It then returns to the issue of imperial self-narration and the wider societal implications of its scholarly and popular reproduction: the telling of simple stories about the past.
