About Hittite
Hittite was an Anatolian branch Indo-European language spoken in central Anatolia, in what is now Turkey, by the people of the Hittite kingdom. It is extinct and has no native speakers today; surviving evidence comes from several thousand clay tablets and fragments. Most texts were written in cuneiform adapted from Mesopotamian practice, and a smaller number of inscriptions used Anatolian hieroglyphs for related Luwian rather than standard Hittite.
One distinctive feature of Hittite is its conservative Indo-European structure, including the old contrast between two main noun genders, common and neuter, rather than the later masculine-feminine-neuter pattern familiar from many other branches. Historically, it is especially important because it is the earliest attested Indo-European language, preserved in archives from the Hittite capital Hattusa. Those tablets include laws, treaties, rituals, myths, and diplomatic correspondence, making Hittite central to both Indo-European studies and the history of the ancient Near East.
