  1. old prussian

    Old Prussian refers to a now-extinct language that was part of the Western branch of the Baltic languages, belonging to the Indo-European linguistic family. It was originally spoken by the Old Prussians, an ethnic group that inhabited Prussia, today's northeastern Poland and the Kaliningrad Oblast of Russia, before the areas were taken over by the Teutonic Knights and subsequently Germanized. Information about the Old Prussian language has been reconstructed primarily from Old Prussian vocabularies and texts written in the language, dating back to the 16th and 17th centuries. In a broader context, Old Prussian can also refer to anything related to the ancient Prussian culture and its people.
