Okay, hopefully this will get people thinking and talking. I have new pages
up on my site:
http://glen-gordon.tripod.com/language.html
One page is about language origins and has the long-range linguistic tree
that I suggested earlier. Another link has been made to a map of the Black
Sea area around 6000 BCE with the position of the languages as I calls 'em.
Note, I'm suggesting that NEC may be the old "cultural link" to the north
shores of the Black and IE would be the motive for the "reversal" of this
direction of influence at this period of time.
But I'm not sure now at what time Semitic was in contact with Kartvelian
(perhaps later) so the southern Black shores may have been covered with
another language. Anyone know anything about Kaskian?
