Maybe, you failed to notice most of my viewpoints are far from mainstream :
1. Salish, Yenissei, North caucasic and Hurri are parts of PIE
2. Germanic is far-eastern

I suppose I have some capacities for criticizing standard beliefs.

For your own instruction,
Greek Ho:ra has the following meanings :
1. season,
2. year
3. period of life
4. hour of day or night
5. propitious moment
