1) Where is that from?============
A.F :
The numbers in the first colums are : years
The next column is a first erosion rate : 88,7% : 79% : etc
The next column is a slower erosion rate with a higher retention,
The next column is an erosion rate again slower
===============
2) French split from Italian appr. 1000 BCE?============
A.F
If you take the fastest rate of erosion (second column from left)
79% hence separated around AD 00
72% hence separated around BC -1000
You seem to be a deep "delicatesse" with maths.
