I need a contact with somebody who knows anything about old baltic languages. I know there've been attempts to reconstruct proto-baltic word list, but I can't find anything about it. Even Old Prussian and Old Latvian could be good enough, if anything older can't be found.
I'm not hoping for much, but maybe we'll have some luck...

Maybe this could help you ; a Sudovian dictionaryhere (http://www.suduva.com/virdainas/)

and some old prussian (maybe it's too recent) here (http://donelaitis.vdu.lt/prussian/reconstructions.htm)

Yeah, I've been using these two sites so far, but 1) I don't know the grammar, and 2) if anything even older could be reconstructed... I need professional help here. I've begun trying to contact some specialists, but maybe somebody here knows someone who can help...
EDIT: Ok, I found some grammar on these sites, didn't notice that before... if I can't find anything better it will have to do, I suppose...
