Summary:The Hittite state is closely related to the kingdom of Kanesh by historical ties. Its background could be understood through the study of the last stage of the history of the citystate Kanesh or Nesa in the second half of the II millennium BC. It is also essential to understand how the transition of the state system from Kanesh to Hattusa took place.

The article discusses the above-mentioned issues, as well as a number of other issues of the history of the Early Hittite state.
