• Resumen

  • In Assyriological studies, "Hurro-Akkadian" is more or less vaguely understood as a scribal practice consisting of introducing Hurrian expressions and elements (lexical items and syntactical constructions) into Akkadian texts. It is also assumed as a type of Akkadian in which a Hurrian substrate modified certain verbal forms using Akkadian roots though not following Akkadian grammar. Although there existed precedents in Amorite items, documents written in Huro-Akkadian have been mainly found in several archives that, along northern Mesopotamia and Syria, pertained to the Mittanni state during the Late Bronze Age (hereafter LBA)
