    The academic study of Old Persian, Avestan and Achaemenid Elamite goes back to the nineteenth century. Of the three fields, Old Persian and Elamite become less visible since the 1980s. This, however, does not mean that there was no progress in since that time. Especially in Avestan studies, scholarship has advanced considerably in recent decades. The present article sketches three major subjects of innovative recent research activities. Topics include textual studies, the script, lexicology, etymology. Many considerations from the author on prospects for the study of the three fields are included

    Since the publication of an article by Ronald E. Emmerick (TPS 1966), the Avestan hapax āδū.frāδana- (Yt 5, 6) has mostly been interpreted as containing the same base as Sogdian ’’δwk, probably meaning ‘corn, grain’, both words being possibly connected to the IE base for ‘eat’ (Indo-Aryan *ad-). Eric Hamp discussed in two brief notes (TPS 1968, 1973) the many difficulties involved in Emmerick’s proposal, maintaining a sceptical attitude on the matter. With the aid of fresh material, the whole question is taken again by the author, also in view of the impact which the new etymology has produced on Elamite lexicology
