There are some Myths about Hittites, Ottomans and another Civilization. I've seen that names in older versions. But I wasn't able to play with that civs,

It is explained somwhere that Ottomans were replaced by Germans in the last seconds (marketing?)

2. A: The Turks

I know this because early versions of the manual contained explanations of all of the computer opponents. One such version, the earliest, included a description of the Turks, who were apparently supposed to be in the game originally. You can confirm this by reading the READ.ME file (Go to the manual section, select plain text version and scroll straight to the bottom. The readme file is there. Or you can just find the file in the directory of your own copy of the game), which states the correction to the manual. Note that the manual I have here does not contain this error or any descriptions of the other civilizations.

EDIT: OOPS
