Yes, indeed. I don't know who to believe in a babel of linguistic
theories and chronological labels. I just want to know if there are
enough studies about Prakrits (= proto-Indian, proto-Vedic); if they
have partly dined with proto-indo-european prior to 3500 BCE, any
light which dispels the darkness of ignorance, is welcome.
