I saw this article about the Urartian language and it made me wonder if there are also people in Armenia that have an interest in Ancient languages and if there are online moviments where people study extinct languages.

  1. Yes, the highest percentage of Urartologists live in Armenia.

    But the article is BS. Nobody can “speak” Urartian. It has a very limited corpus, and even out of that, many of the words don’t have known meanings.

    I know a woman who studies cuneiforms. If you go out and buy a book on the topic, you will probably buy her book.
