Kaskean
The present paper aims at presenting an already published Hittite cuneiform tablet originating in the Great Temple of the Lower City at Ḫattuša, which preserves over 60 fragmentary lines of an unidentified language. Combining both a philological and a linguistic approach to the material, it will be argued that this additional recorded language in the archives of Ḫattuša is a Kaskean language. Even though the meanings of its lexemes are so far unk…
Les dérivés adjectivaux grecs et louvites en *-eh2-i̯o
The present paper provides a brief overview of the Indo-European adjectival suffix *-i̯o-, emphasizing its often-neglected presence in the Anatolian languages. It aims at uncovering certain suffix chains formed with the same adjectival suffix, such as *-nt-i̯o- and *-eh2-i̯o-, which have not been properly established so far within the framework of Anatolian morphology. The existence of the latter chain *-eh2-i̯oin more than one Anatolian language…
Hethitisch māri- ,Sichelschwert(?)‘ aus archäologischer, philologischer und etymologischer Sicht
This paper addresses the Hittite word giš māri- , which designates a kind of weapon and is often translated as ‘ mari -spear’. A philological re-evaluation of the Hittite attestations rather calls for the meaning ‘scimitar (sickle-shaped sword),’ which has previously been suggested but was largely disregarded. At the same time, archaeological evidence for the presence of scimitars in the Hittite culture is adduced. Subsequently, the role of this …
Nouveaux joints relatifs au grand rituel louvite de Kuwattalla et Šilalluḫi
In his edition of Cuneiform Luwian texts, Starke categorizes the rituals of Kuwattalla into three groups. While the existence of the first two in which Šilalluḫi participates is secured, the third one is highly hypothetical. In this paper, new joins of fragments made by the author are presented, which confirm the recent arguments of Hutter against the third ritual of Starke and bear consequences for the rearrangement of the rituals of the Kuwatta…
Palaic Words for Domestic Animals and their Enclosures
Palaic passage featuring the mention of sacrificial animals and the spaces where they are kept is identified with its Hittite parallel. The simultaneous application of combinatory and etymological methods is conducive to the identification of a number of Palaic lexemes occurring in this passage, which were previously regarded as obscure. Among them are the Palaic words for ‘dog’, ‘cow’, and either ‘sheep’ or ‘lamb’
Die lydische Athene
The following article provides a new edition of a Lydian-Greek bilingual inscription from the Athena Temple at Pergamon (LW 40). For the first time, the badly weathered Lydian part of the inscription can be read in its entirety, revealing Malis as the Lydian name of the goddess Athena. The bilingual thereby contributes to our understanding of Lydian religion and elucidates the perpetuation of the name Malis in Greek sources
