Should be: IE-Austric.
BTW I thought of a date for this contact! How about 4000 BCE? That
would coincide with the appearance of the Sumerians (who were taught
by sages from the east, according to themselves), and the start of
the calendar at a time when the sun at spring equinox was standing
beween the horns of Taurus (whence all the bull symbolism). I'd have
to do without a flood, though, Oppenheimer sets the last flood at
6000 BCE.
