	Hattic language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Hattic was a non- Indo-European language spoken in Asia Minor between the 3rd and the 2nd millennia BC, before the appearance of the Hittites.
		Hattic appears to be related to the Northwest Caucasian (Circassian) family.
		The names "Hattic" and "Hittite" are modern terms, and both are apparently derived from the same word, the ancient name of the region where the two cultures flourished, which has been reconstructed as Hatti in the Hittite language.

		The name " Hattic " is used by anatolists to distinguish this language from the Indo-European Hittite language, which appeared in the scene at the beginning of the 2nd millennium BC and became the administrative language of the Hittite kingdom over the next six or seven centuries.
		The early Hittites, whose prior whereabouts are unknown, borrowed heavily from the pre-existing Hattian culture, and also from that of the Assyrian traders — in particular the cuneiform writing and the use of cylindrical seals.
		Since Hattic continued to be used in the Hittite kingdom for religious purposes, and there is substantial continuity between the two cultures, it is not known whether the Hattic speakers — the Hattians — were displaced by the speakers of Hittite, were absorbed by them, or just adopted their language.

		The relationship between Hattic and Northwest Caucasian (Circassian) is quite solid, but the relationship in the Wider Hetto-Iberian family is more controvercial, while its position in Proto-Iberian is something discussed only by linguists from the former Soviet states at present.
		Words in Hittire believed to be of Hattic origin: tabarna (king), tawananna (queen), tuhkanti (heir to the throne), hapalki (iron).
		The area where Hattic was spoken, say around the easternmost bend of the Halys, was about 250 miles (400 km) to the northeast of ÃatalhÃ¶yÃ¼k.

		Hattic might be a retronym derived from Hattus (the name of the Hittite country, I think), Hattusa(s) (the Hittite capital), or from Hatti, the name of a people in Akkadian.
		While Hittite replaced Hattic, the latter remained an important liturgical language and a source of (coinages of?) legal and administrative terms, and a major source of Hittite's lexical corpus.
