AELAW booklets provide an updated introduction to fragmentary languages of ancien Europe and the inscriptions attesting them, in order to reach all audiences.
Etruscan, Iberian, Thracian, Lemnian, Italic languages as well as the Celtic ones such as Gaulish or Celtiberian, among others, will be discussed in this series.
AELAW booklets are richly illustrated with pictures and drawings of the documents and they include maps and tables. A selected bibliography is also provided.
The authors are outstanding scholars from the fields of Linguistics, History and Philology. All of them are members of the AELAW network (Ancient European Languages and Writings), which is integrated in the European COST framework.
El primer número de la colección AELAW se ocupa de forma concisa, didáctica y rigurosa del celtibérico, una lengua del grupo céltico atestiguada durante los siglos II y I a. C. en el interior de Hispania. En distintos capítulos se trata de la lengua, la escritura, la fórmula onomástica, la epigrafía y el censo de inscripciones. Además, se estudian de forma particular dos inscripciones: la losa funeraria de Ibiza y el llamado «Bronce Res». Cierra el volumen un apartado bibliográfico. Obra profusamente ilustrada.
