 <p>In the bilingual Greek-Phoenician KAI I, 42, a figure called Ba‘alšillem in Phoenician bears the name ΠΡΑΞIΔHMOΣ in the Greek version of the text. In spite of former attempts at explaining the correspondence as a form of calque or translation, the rendering is, in all likelihood, the result of phonetic adaptation, possibly with an attempt at folk-etymologically employing Greek morphs (Giusfredi 2018). This process indicates not only that there was an adstratal relationship of Greek and Phoenician in Cyprus, but also that the prestige of Greek was increasing during the age of the Ptolemaic domination, which is confirmed by the historical data we possess.</p>
-<p>As for toponymy, the morphology of Hattian toponyms in Old Assyrian texts represents a very interesting indicator of the rising prestige of Hittite during the final stage of the Middle Bronze Age, when toponyms such as Hattuš start being thematized as vocalic stems already in some Old Assyrian texts, resulting in the form Hattuša. This happened roughly during the age in which the kingdom of Hatti was becoming a significant polity in Central Anatolia.</p>
