La question des mots et noms mitanni-aryens, légués par les Indo-Iraniens du Mittanni

A. FOURNET, «La question des mots et noms mitanni-aryens, légués par les Indo-Iraniens du Mittanni», Res Antiquae 9, Bruxelles, 2012.

The paper deals with the issue of the Indo-Aryan-sounding superstrate, represented by Person Names and words in Hurrian texts of the Mittanni Kingdom and related documents of the ancient Near-East. It reexamines the items studied by scholars like Mayrhofer and proposes additional data, that appear to have been overlooked. It also tries to address the reasons why Indo-Iranian people would have ventured in the Near-East.
