The aim of this database is to build up a fully comprehensive tool of investigation on the complex issue of the "Ahhiyawa question". In 1924 Emile Forrer claimed to have found in the Bogazköy's archives proof of the historical existence of Homeric Achaeans. Since then, most of the countless number of studies published on this issue have tried to demonstrate or to deny the correspondence between the word Ahhiya(-wa) with an ethnic or place-name value, as it appears in Hittite documents, and the Greek terms Acaia e Acaioi.
