On The Kassites And Kurds


The Macro-Comparative Journal. 2011. 
The Kassite Language In a Comparative Perspective with Hurrian and Urartean

A very interesting article about the Kassites and their language.
In this article, the writer has tried to explain the origin of the Kassites (Kuri-Galzu, Karduniash), explore the etymology of their name and its relation with that of the the Kalds (Urartians,) and the obvious relationship of the Kassite with Hurro-Urartian languages.
The author concludes that the Kassites may have been the forfathers of Hurro-Urartians.
