The Georgian language has a lot of ejectives like k93k93, as well as the deep k6k6 sound. Georgian is interesting because it is not related to any other language in the world, it is part of its own branch of languages, the Kartvelian languages. Earliest writings were found from 430 CE. It is useful to learn how to pronounce because of the ejectives and it is sometimes consonant heavy.
