Historical Toilets, Phrygian/Hittite

Phrygian / Hittite toilet The capital of the Hittite Empire was at Hattuşaş, next to today's small Turkish farming village of Boğazkale. After the fall of the Hittite Empire around 1200 BCE, the Phrygians established a capital there.

This sewage drain dates from the Phrygian occupation of the site about 1200-700 BCE.

See the Wikipedia page for more on Hattuşaş.
