Fortran is not dead either (arguably more alive than COBOL)

Fortran is definitely not coffin bound any time soon. COBOL's last ISO standard was 2014. Fortran's last was 2018. That's right, last year.

Interestingly, there's also plenty of action around Ada and Prolog as well (ignoring C and C++ for now.)

See wikipedia for more information and links.
