Abstract


In this work we collect the available data in order to defend that the Iberian language was an ergative language, giving special relevance to bilingual texts and those whose brevity allows a clearer analisys. From this study we conclude that the citation form in Iberian was the unmarked one, which probably was used also for the subject in intransitive sentences and the direct object, while the agent would be marked by the suffix -ka.
