Description
The dataset is a tabular comparative lexicon of the Anatolian emotional vocabulary, comprising 72 etymological entries and 150 language-specific derivational nests. Each row represents a cognate set linked to a shared Proto-Anatolian and/or Proto-Indo-European root and indexed by lemma. Each populated language column contains the derivational nest attested for that root in a given Anatolian language. The lexemes are attested in Hittite (65), Luwian (44), Lycian A (11), Lycian B (7), Lydian (7), Palaic (12), and Carian (4). The data were collected through systematic corpus-based analysis using the eDiAna corpus and the Hethitologie Portal Mainz, covering 4,171 lexical items from the non-Hittite Anatolian languages and more than 25,000 Hittite word forms. Cognate forms are grouped into single entries, each with one Proto-Anatolian and/or Proto-Indo-European reconstruction. The dataset supports research in historical semantics, emotional lexicology, and Indo-European linguistics and was compiled within the framework of the AHEC project (Akkadian and Hittite Emotions in Contexts).
