Lithuanian belongs to the Baltic branch of the Indo-European language family. It is attested very late, its earliest texts date to the 16th century AD. The first text is a translation of the Lord prayer and Hail Marry and the Nicene Creed from 1503-1527.

As the aim of this study is comparing adjective valence of ancient languages, Lithuanian, for the sake of late attestation, is not included.
