Oscan language - Oskan (English spelling)
An extinct language belonging to the Italic branch of the Indo-European language family. It was spoken until the 1st century, mainly in the Samnium region of southern Italy, but was completely replaced by Latin by the end of the 1st century. It is known from about 250 inscriptions dating from the 5th century BC to the 1st century AD. The inscriptions are written in Roman, Greek, and a unique script derived from the Etruscan alphabet. It is closely related to Umbrian and is grouped together with the Osco-Umbrian languages.
