Kizzuwatna and the Amuq Plain, two neighboring regions, went through major political and cultural changes in the Late Bronze Age. Textual evidence provides an account of historical events and related alterations in political and cultural structure. The datings of these historical events play a crucial role in synchronizing these two regions. In addition, archaeological evidence (i.e. pottery) is examined in order to question whether the changes in political status and hegemony are reflected in the material culture. This paper presents and discusses the types of evidence and shortcomings for synchronizing the histories of Kizzuwatna and Amuq.
