The origin of the language being with the splitting of the [[w:Proto-Balto-Slavic language|Proto-Balto-Slavic]] languages that then branched into Proto-Baltic and Proto-Slavic which the other branched into Proto-West Baltic, Proto-East Baltic and Proto-South Baltic. Like [[w:Lithuanian language|Lithuanian]] it is highly conservative but a little bit more than the other, retaning many archaic features only found in classical languages like [[w:Sanskrit|Sanskrit]]. It also shares with Lithuanian the most conservative phonology and morpohlogy in Indo-European languages. However, unlike it's forefathers, Primorskian was actually the first Baltic language to be ever attested, with it's earliest writings go back as far as the mid-10th century, where it was inscribed on Viking runes. The earliest documentation is an manuscript in Old Norse, honoring the peace between Viking lord Arni and Primorskian cheiftain Usarada.
