Sorotàptic from Greek σορός sorós 'burial urn' and θαπτός thaptós 'buried') is the name suggested by the Catalan linguist Juan Curuminas for a hypothetical substrate language, probably an Indo-European , but Indo-European , parish which was allegedly spoken by people of the Bronze Age (the culture of the fields of funeral urns ) on the Iberian Peninsula (Price 2000: 449).

Koromines introduced the concept of “Sorotaptic language” to explain the presence of problematic [ what? ] words in Ibero-Romance languages . He identified the language with the inscription on a lead tablet from about the 2nd century AD. e., found in Amelie-les-Bains on the Spanish-French border; the plate contains both Latin words and words that cannot be attributed to either Latin or Celtic, and Koromines considers them to be Sorotaptic [1] [2] .
