All the major early Hittite sites lie in the province of Çorum in Boğazkale National Park, between Yozgat and the city of Çorum. Impressive double walls, in which are set the Royal Gate, the Lion Gate and the Yer Kapı (an underground tunnel), ring the Hittite city of Hattuşaş, known today as Boğazkale. This city, the Hittite religious center, was known as the City of Temples because over 70 temples stood there. The largest ruins are those of the great temple of the storm god Teşup. The Acropolis contained government buildings, the Imperial Palace and the archives of the Hittite Empire. In 1180 BC the Phrygians devastated the city. After thorough excavations at the site walls are now being extensively restored.
