      Karl Penka should be 1847- 1912. Really sorry for the mistakes, it is not my intention to be careless. Having it happen this many times is unacceptable to me, and it's clear that my previous solutions have not worked. I still have other solutions I am considering, so I will work on those. Thanks to everyone for watching the video.

    The Indo-Europeanization of Europe did not mean total destruction of the previous cul-
    tural achievement, but consisted in an amalgamation (hybridization) of racial and cultural phenomena. Linguistically, the process may (and must) be regarded in a similar way: the Indo-Europeans imposed an idiom which itself then adopted certain elements from the autochthonous languages spoken previously. These non-Indo-European (pre-IE) elements are numerous in Greek, Latin, and arguably, Thracian.

      As an Indian, that is even more true for us. The Dravidian languages are incredibly prominent, despite having a sizeable amount of loanwords from Sanskrit, and the Dravidian speaking states are some of the wealthiest and most developed. And many Indo Aryan languages, even Sanskrit, have a number of Dravidian loanwords too. Also, many Hindu traditions consist of non Aryan, Dravidian and tribal traditions which were Sanskritised (Sanskritization was a way for many groups to be integrated into higher society).
      Of course not everything was a utopia, but to pretend that it was as simple as Aryans subjugating Dravidians is unhelpful.

    Admirable scholarship in your video. Loans, influences and re-loans are a staple feature in languages, of course. At point 19:36 there are wagon words. In Finnish a wagon is "vaunu", and the Finnish word "ratas" is literally a wheel (a akin to "rota", something that rotates), but they propably are early germanic loans to northern balto-uralic. An interesting, maybe common word in early Uralic and Indo-European languages is "kesti", aka "a quest", which perhaps means the act of feeding and giving a resting place to someone not of one's own family group. Something neighbouring people would have occasionally done.

    I'm not sure if you're interested if you're only focusing on indo european studies but I really recommend reading and maybe doing a video about the Yeniseians, it is fascinating the role they may have played in history, and from a scale of France to Chile... The potential of them being elite rulers in many different nomadic groups in history is super interesting and especially how many of loanwords they may have influenced. The Xiongnu, the Huns, the first humans to inhabit the Americas, i think it's fascinating that they're tied to all of them

    At the start of the expansion phases, there were therefore at least three major groups that were genetically distinct and homogeneous : on the one hand, the R1a-M417 carriers of Corded Ware, and on the other, two more closely related groups of R1b-Z2103 from the Yamna culture and R1b-L51, who are still poorly represented by ancient samples but are present in Bohemia to the south of the Corded Ware. The descendants of R1a-M417 are the Balto-Slavic and Indo-Iranian language branches, while R1b-Z2103 would have given rise to at least Armenian and Greek, as well as Tocharian languages and possibly Albanian. Finally, descendants of R1b-L51 would have formed at least the Germanic and Italo-Celtic branches, as well as the Lusitanian language.

    There are probably thousands of words in all these three languages which are loans from outside. But because they have not been looked at from this point of view, they have found a place in the Indo-European dictionaries. The importance of recognizing loan words has been correctly assessed by Hjelmslev who says:
    "Even a language like Greek, which is considered one of the purest Indo-European languages and which plays a greater role than any other in comparative Indo-European studies, contains only a relatively small number of words that can be genetically accounted for on the basis of Indo-European. Presumably then all Greek words are borrowings from other languages, chiefly, perhaps, from non-Indo-European languages."

    Well the Proto Finns (Finno Ugric), who migrated from Siberia Asia to Northern Norway during the Last Ice Age intermixed with the north expanding Western Hunter Gatherers (1st Europeans black with blue eyes) who had come in from the Middle East and up the western coast of Norway. The Proto Finns, ancestors to the indigenous Sámi, Finns and Estonians, brought light eyes, skin and blonde hair, and they are distant related to all Native Americans. Same area of origin. The Sámi are the indigenous people as they didn’t mix with later incoming populations like the Anatolian farmers, Yamnaya from Ukraine, nor the Germanic farmers aka Norse/Vikings. Tho their cousins the Finns and Estonians did.

    The geography of area around the Black Sea was very different before PIE emerged. The black sea was a lake surrounded by woodlands and wetlands. It was rich in animal life, well watered, and, therefore, an ideal environment for early people to live in. When the Mediterranean rose and broke through, filling the black sea, the people were forced to begin migrating, and their technology made them very good at moving. That's my theory.

    I think Central Asia pre BMAC also makes a very strong candidate for the PIE homeland. CHG ancestry was not just associated with Caucasus but was also extremely prevalent in BMAC and pre BMAC central Asia. If you think about the region which is:
    - Close to the Uralic homeland
    - Close to high CHG population centers
    - Within the EHG sphere.
    - Had a short, early migration path to Anatolia.
    For me Central Asia makes the most sense. And to top it off as an archeology nerd, there is very little archeological disruption of material culture in Central and South Asia post and pre Indo European migrations. There is a marked material culture shift pretty much everywhere else (even in Anatolia, with its Neolithic population). I think paleo-linguistics is a bit of a distraction here as it is indicative at best. The association of PIE with horses could also be a Rigvedic/Eurocentric bias; as migrations into Europe and deep into the Indian sub-continent likely featured cultures which revered horses.
    If I'm not wrong Sujay Rao has made a case for this.

    I've recently saw another video and read in a magazine that there's another theory that kind of complements the step, Armenian and Anatolian hypothesis. If I remember correctly, it takes climate changes Into account and how the environment and landscape in those areas would have been 6,000-8,000 years ago and before that. Apparently, IE languages have many words that would indicate a woodland environment, rather than plains, and also words that indicated some body of water. The author said the original homeland of PIE speakers, or I guess PIA, might've been the southern shores of the Caspian Sea and from there they'd have migrated to the north and south. I think it sounds good too and they would've been close enough to Iran and India to migrate there, raid and perhaps invade at some point. All modern hypothesis seem to indicate an area somewhere in between the Caspian and the Noth Sea, either north or south of the Caucasus. None of the supposed homelands is very far from the other, but the mountains are right in the middle, which makes it hard for all to be right at the same time. The possibility of being related to Kartvelian, Semitic or Uralic languages makes everything even more intriguing.

    I think a wave of migrants fleeing the north sea inundations for the steppes was a major founding reason for why the PIE ethnolanguage arose when and where it did.
    The sudden die-off of previous pre-PIE males of this region can then be attributed to this collapse from which the migrants fled, then afterwards being filled/completed by the heavily steppe-influenced descendants of the few migrants that sparked the PIE boom.
    in short; a specific founder moment caused by a specific migrant period is what I would search for in genes and archaeology.

      It would be similar to how England originally consists of a wave of Germanic migrations, but whose relocation sparked a new, latin-influenced branch of germanic that swept the world.
      PIE would simply be an older, steppe version of English in how it was formed from north sea migrants.

    Im not sure the mainstream narrative is correct. DNA is telling a different story. For instance modern Europeans have 3 primary genetic components W.H.G, Neolithic farmer and A.N.E. The oldest European skeleton Kostenki 14 is 37,000 years old. His genome showed he already had the same 3 primary genetic components as modern Europeans. Thats quite telling. It tells us that Europe was populated by 1 large meta population. Biologist Eske Willerslev described it as reshuffling the same genes without any large admixture from the outside. Also the term Aryan only being applied to iran and India is a modernity thing. Lol some weird sort of social justice stuff i don't understand.

Now because of ww2 a war that saw 50 to 80 million Europeans die im supposed to be ok with some weird racist social justice shit stealing my heritage?

      There are alternative hypotheses other scientists are working on but the problem is that there’s simply more evidence supporting the steppe hypothesis than the others. The most likely alternative theory in my opinion would be that perhaps proto indo european or a close ancestor of it started in the Caucasus before the intermixing event with the Eastern Hunter Gatherers, however most languages descended from PIE definitely came from a language that existed after that intermixing event close to or in the steppe regardless if the origin was in the Caucasus or above it.

    Now the origins of "proto-semitic" - The Aramaic word for God is "Alaha" too sounds familiar?
    Written without the confusing vowels it is written A-L-H ܐ ܠܗܐ (alap-lamed-he) as found in Targum or in Tanakh (Daniel, Ezra), Syriac Aramaic (Peshitta), reduced from the Arabic original (of which Aramaic is a dialect continuum as will be explained) it is written in the Arabic script 'A-L-L-H' (Aleph-Lam-Lam-Ha) add an A before the last H for vocalization.
    The word God in another rendition in Hebrew ʾĕlōah is derived from a base ʾilāh, an Arabic word, written without confusing vowel it is A-L-H in the Arabic script, pronounced ilah not eloah. Hebrew dropped the glottal stop and mumbled it, aramic mumbled a little less and it became elaha. Infact both are written written A-L-H in Arabic, it is pronounced i in Arabic and not A because it is an Alef with hamza below (إ أ ) They are two different forms of Alef. And it mean "a god", it is the non definitive form of A-L-L-H, in which the Alef is without a glottal stop/hamza,(ا), but this kind of nuance is lost in the dialect continua.
    infact "YHWH" itself is an Arabic word as discussed by Professor. Israel Knohl (Professor of Biblical studies at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem) in the paper" YHWH: The Original Arabic Meaning of the Name."
    "Mother of God/Theotokos" title has been in use since the 3rd century, in the Syriac tradition (as Classical Syriac: ܝܠܕܬ ܐܠܗܐ, romanized: Yāldath Alāhā) in the Liturgy of Mari and Addai (3rd century) and the Liturgy of St James (4th century). That too is Arabic, Yaldath here is a mumbled Walydath (WALDH / والدة ), meaning mother of. Written with Y for obfuscation.
    jesus as his name is often misspelled due to the lack of the ayin sound in Greek, which was rendered to Iesous, coupling the nearest sound to ayin, same letter found in 'Iraq', which sounds entirely different in Arabic form 'Iran' in Arabic, with the -ous Greek suffix that Greeks typically add to their names 'HerodotOS', 'PlotinUS', 'AchelOUS' and later mumbled into a J. The yeshua rendition of Isa (his name in the Qur'an) PBUH which is purported to be the name of Jesus is KNOWN to had been taken from greek. Western Syriac also use "Isho". Western Aramaic (separate from Syriac which is a dialect of Eastern Aramaic) use "Yeshu". Western Syriac has been separate from Western Aramaic for about 1000 years. And sounds don't even match up. Syriac is a Christian liturgical language yet the four letters of the name of Jesus «ܝܫܘܥ» [ = Judeo-Babylonian Aramaic: «ישוע» ] sounds totally different in West vs East Syriac, viz. vocalized akin to Christian Arabic, Hebrew, Aramaic «ܝܶܫܽܘܥ» (Yēšūʿ) in West Syriac, but pronounced more akin to Muslim Arabic Quran character name Isa in East Syriac «ܝܑܼܫܘܿܥ» (ʾĪšōʿ). The reason for this confusion is their dropping of phonemes. Only someone that has no idea what the letters are or how they sound would have a name ending in a pharyngeal fricative like the ayin, if it were to be used in a name it would have had to be in the beginning, thus the Arabic rendition is the correct one. An example in English is how the appended -d is a common error amongst the English pronouncing Gaelic names. The name Donald arose from a common English mispronunciation of the Gaelic name Donal. Just how it is with donal becoming donald and the two becoming distinct and the original being regarded as something seperate so too did Isa PBUH turn to Iesous turn to jesus and when they tried going back to the original they confused it for yeshua ( ysu is how it is actually written) for Isa PBUH ( 3'eysah )
    Schlözer in his preparation for the Arabia expedition in 1781 coined the term Semitic language:
    "From the Mediterranean to the Euphrates, from Mesopotamia to Arabia ruled one language, as is well known. Thus Syrians, Babylonians, Hebrews, and Arabs were one people (ein Volk). Phoenicians (Hamites) also spoke this language, which I would like to call the Semitic (die Semitische)." -Before Boas: The Genesis of Ethnography and Ethnology in the German By Han F. Vermeulen.
    He was only half right though, Arabic is the only corollary to "proto-semitic", infact the whole semitic classification is nonsensical as will be shown.

    ع, غ (3'ayn, Ghayn) merged into a reducted ayin consonant remaining
    ت, ث (t/taw, th) merged into only t/taw consonant remaining
    The reason why the protoS alphabet here is 28 and not 29, is because the supposed extra letter is simply a س written in a different position, but it was shoehorned to obfuscated. In Arabic letter shapes are different depending on whether they are in the beginning , middle or end of a word.
    As a matter of fact, all of the knowledge needed for deciphering ancient texts and their complexity was derived from the Qur'an. It was by analyzing the syntactic structure of the Qur'an that the Arabic root system was developed. This system was first attested to in Kitab Al-Ayin, the first intralanguage dictionary of its kind, which preceded the Oxford English dictionary by 800 years. It was through this development that the concept of Arabic roots was established and later co-opted into the term 'semitic root,' allowing the decipherment of ancient scripts. In essence, they quite literally copied and pasted the entirety of the Arabic root. Hebrew had been dead, as well as all the other dialects of Arabic, until being 'revived' in a Frankensteinian fashion in the 18th and 19th centuries.
    The entire region spoke basically the same language, with mumbled dialect continuums spread about, and Arabic is the oldest form from which all these dialects branched off. As time passed, the language gradually became more degenerate,
    Language; When one looks at the actual linguistics, one will find that many were puzzled by the opposite, that is, how the other "semetic" languages were more "evolved" than Arabic, while Arabic had archaic features, not only archaic compared to bibilical Hebrew, Ethiopic, "Aramaic" contemporary "semetic" languages, but even archaic compared to languages from ancient antiquity; Ugaritic, Akkadain. What is meant here by Archaic is not what most readers think, it is Archaic not in the sense that it is simple, but rather that it is complex (think Latin to pig Latin or Italian or Old English, which had genders and case endings to modern English), not only grammatically, but also phonetically; All the so called semitic languages are supposed to have evolved from protosemetic, the Alphabet for protosemitic is that of the so called Ancient South Arabian (which interestingly corresponds with the traditional Arabic origins account) and has 28 Phonemes. Arabic has 28 phonemes. Hebrew has 22, same as Aramaic, and other "semitic" languages. Now pause for a second and think about it, how come Arabic, a language that is supposed to have come so late has the same number of letters as a language that supposedly predates it by over a millennium (Musnad script ~1300 BCE). Not only is the glossary of phonemes more diverse than any other semitic language, but the grammar is more complex, containing more cases and retains what's linguists noted for its antiquity, broken plurals. Indeed, a linguist has once noted that if one were to take everything we know about languages and how they develop, Arabic is older than Akkadian (~2500 BCE).
    And then the Qur'an appeared with the oldest possible form of the language thousands of years later. This is why the Arabs of that time were challenged to produce 10 similar verses, and they couldn't. People think it's a miracle because they couldn't do it, but I think the miracle is the language itself. They had never spoken Arabic, nor has any other language before or since had this mathematical precision. And when I say mathematical, I quite literally mean mathematical.
    Now how is it that the Qur'an came thousands of years later in an alphabet that had never been recorded before, and in the highest form the language had ever taken?
    The creator is neither bound by time nor space, therefore the names are uttered as they truly were, in a language that is lexically, syntactically, phonemically, and semantically older than the oldest recorded writing. In fact, that writing appears to have been a simplified version of it. Not only that, but it would be the equivalent of the greatest works of any particular language all appearing in one book, in a perfect script and in the highest form the language could ever take. It is so high in fact, that it had yet to be surpassed despite the fact that over the last millennium the collection of Arabic manuscripts when compared on word-per-word basis in Western Museums alone, when they are compared with the collected Greek and Latin manuscripts combined, the latter does not constitute 1 percent of the former as per German professor Frank Griffel, in addition all in a script that had never been recorded before. Thus, the enlightenment of mankind from barbarism and savagery began, and the age of reason and rationality was born from its study.
    God did bring down the Qur’an, Mohamed is his Messenger.

      Like Theos/Deus/Tiw/Dyaus are all derived from a common root, wow surprise!

    Isn't chalkolithic pronounced /kælkoˈli.θik/ from *χαλκός* /kʰalˈkos/ the Greek word for _copper_ ? 🤔

      Yes.

      Maybe but it's not something a non-Greek speaker is likely to get correct. Just like you'd fail as a Greek to pronounce *Norge* or *Noreg* .

      @@nicolaiby1846 But unlike your example, modern Norwegian isn't an ancient language that gave us hundreds of words and roots that we use everyday and is taught at school, high school and university in almost every matter you can think of. If it looks Greek, and it is Greek, "ch" is always going to be /x/>/k/, like architecture, chronology, and chemistry.
      But I think the reason so many English speakers get this particular word wrong is because it might remind them of English "chalk". Nevertheless, I think we all infer that the Chalcolithic isn't the "Chalk" Age lol.
