On the matter of Ancient and extinct in the wild languages, I believe that they are of great historical and cultural interest and should be given the same status as other ancient or non-European languages such as Sanskrit, Anglo-Saxon, Classical Arabic, Icelandic, Mandarin, Kazakh, Japanese, Old East Slavic, Russian, Amharic and the like. All are suitable for study but those that are still widely spoken should have the edge if they are to be studied at secondary school level as there is actually a chance of speaking to a living human who actually uses them. The rest are fine for academic study at university and for personal pleasure. Alan -- Alan Calder, Milton Keynes, UK.
