Mark, you write the following:
<The idea seems that the PIEs were not Kurgans, but rather, were
kurganized by linguistically unrelated migrants from the
east.>
Gerry here: I have a very small suggestion. Your reference to Kurgans
could possibly be a bit unclear? In which sense are you using the word?
As a particular group of folks who used kurgans for tumuli and/or houses
or for the people themselves?
