Abstract (EN)

By the end of the Bronze Age, a migration movement took place in the Eastern Mediterranean due to natural and human factors. This migrant movement, in which the Mycenaean Civilization in the Aegean, the Hittite Empire in Anatolia, and countless palaces, temples and cities were destroyed, were named as the Migrations of the Sea Peoples or Aegean Migrations. After this migration movement, the Early Iron Age was entered and a period in which resources were silenced started in Anatolia. This period, which is described as the "Dark Age", lasted approximately 400 years in Anatolia. In this period, the great power of the period, Assyria, who had organized many years on the kingdoms of various sizes in Eastern and Southeastern Anatolia, had to struggle with the Arameans who came to Anatolia as a new threat in the 11th century BC. Some time after the Assyrian kings took action against the kingdoms of Arameans, the kingdoms of Arami (from the 7th century BC) were completely under Assyrian rule. In this thesis, it aimed to analyze the political shaping of Anatolia after the Sea Peoples Migration both in the light of the primary sources of the period dated before and after the Sea Tribes Migration.
