Because I think *Yemos and *Manus are not Twins. The Celestial Twins are the sons of the Horse-God and a giantess or demoness.
But if *Yemos is "twin" he must be twinned with someone.
I'm curious about your family tree for the Celestial Twins. I often see them connected with the Sun Maiden, who is connected with horses; in both Greece/Rome and among the Balts they are the sons of *Dyeus; and they are themselves associated with horses. But a horse god? I don't see one in IE religion. Who is the giantess/demoness?
