I don't know any further language which lacks nearly every abstraction.

Look at where C came from: its immediate ancestor was an adaptation of
BCPL to cope with byte addressability. BCPL had no types: everything was a
“word”.

The DEC folks were fond of a language called BLISS, which was similar to
BCPL but a bit more advanced. Instead of conventional types, it had
abstractions for accessing various memory layouts, including dynamic ones,
right down to the bit level.
