The Traditional Views of Indo-European Unity

    Ancient tribes and their languages are erroneously identified with early medieval kingdoms and national mother tongues as they were recorded in the written form a few centuries ago. Our Indo-European predecessors are derived from the Bronze Age Pre-Anatolians (3500 BC). The German philologist August Schleicher was inspired by Ch. Darwin’s Origin of Species (1859) but his Stammbaumtheorie started our evolutionary development from Mycenaean Greece or Vedic Sanskrit. Such views were inherent in August Schleicher’s Stammbaumtheorie1 but reached their height in Hugo Schuchardt’s and Johannes Schmidt’s Wellentheorie.2 In their eyes linguistic and ethnic areas looked like large concentric republics spreading in waves in all possible directions. New languages were supposed to originate by radial expansion where peripheral bulging protuberances fell off and formed new daughter neoplasms.

   Modern applications of Schleicher’s tree theory advanced opinions of Maria Gimbutas, who proposed her kurgan hypothesis3 that the first Indo-Europeans had been the Bronze Age Scythoid kurgan-builders acting as torch-bringers of bronze metallurgy. A slight modifications was advocated by David W. Anthony4, who was sceptical of the role of Baltic kurgan cultures and attached the greatest importance in the Indo-European genesis to the Uralo-Sarmatic centre around the Sintashta culture (2100 BC) south of the Urals. Their chief opponent was Colin Renfrew5, who forwarded an alternative Anatolian model. It identified Indo-European ancestors with the earliest Anatolian peasants, who propagated the art of land-tilling agriculture to Greece and the Balkans. Later their settled down along the Danube Basin as farmers of the Linear Band Ware.   

   A more adequate model was proposed by diffusionist anthropology that regarded ethnic groups as an octopus spreading by diffusion from one prehistoric homeland. Its precursor was J. Baudouin de Courtenay6, who became famous for his paper On the Mixed Character of All Languages (1901). The Russian linguist Nikolai Trubetzkoy developed its philosophy into the self-sustained chain theory (Kettentheorie).7 It conceived ethnic areas as long narrow chains exhibiting similar linguistic and cultural patterns although they passed through several different heterogeneous domains. Such a hypothetical model is more appropriate because it corresponds to prehistoric archaeological migrations. Its conclusions were confirmed by Mateo Alinei’s Palaeolithic Survival Theory.8  He warned against the main fallacy of comparative linguistics that started linguistic evolution from the Bronze Age dawn of civilisation and defended opinions that main branches of human languages must have arisen in the Palaeolithic as an accompaniment of views the first archaeological cultures.  Moreover, he believed that the language cultures of Palaeolithic ancestor survived in residual quantities within their contemporary modern heritage. He refused preconceptions of the Extinction Theory that considered all Palaeolithic tribes, races and dialects as extinct  and defended their partial continual survivance.   

The Nordic and Danubian Gothids as the Core of Indo-Europeans

  Traditional concepts of European tribes insist on a sort of holistic isolationism that identifies tribes with nations cast like ingots in the mould of medieval monarchies. A more sophisticated view divides Gothids into phratries (Jutes, Frisians, Angles, Saxons) denoted as Endo-Gothids, and lineages of migration streams designated as Syn-Gothids. Streams jut out of the cradleland of the tribal diaspora like tentacles of an octopus or branches of a genealogic tree growing out of one trunk. The entire genealogic tree might be referred to as a union of Pan-Gothids (Table 11).

  The common Gothonic starting-point may be found in the farmers of the Danubian Linear Ware (5500–4500 BC), who seem to have coincided with the Y-DNA haplogroup I2-M423 in Central Europe. The Funnelbeaker or Trichterbecher culture (c. 4300 BC – 2800 BC) occupied seats that were later seized by colonists of the Bootaxt people with the Corded Ware (2900 BC – circa 2350). They also showed inclinations to agriculture although their earliest excavated sites depict them as littoral sand-dune dwellers, who built characteristic Gothic wurts or Frisian terps surrounded by shell midden. Their ancestry may be traced back to the earlier past of the Campignian shell midden complex (cca 10 000 BC)9 and the Portuguese Muge culture.10 The former term was originally coined by C. Schuchhardt but now it is neglected as less common. Its use however proves requisite for sheltering early migrations of the Corded Ware in North Asia. Numerous shell dump heaps were characteristic of the Japanese Jomon culture (16 000 BP) with cord-marked pottery. They were created by beachcombing littoralists gathering mussel shell on seaside beaches. Their original Y-DNA haplogroup must be of I1-M253 type corresponding to the blood group O and tall dolichocephalous stature. The area of the Portuguese Muge culture is sometimes interpreted as a possible starting point of the Bell-Beaker folk (2900 – 1800 BC). Its southern promontories pursued Atlantic coastlines as far as the Gulf of Guinea, Angola and South Africa.

Table 11. The systematic classification of Gothoid phratries and tribes

    Archaeological finds and population genetics prove that bearers of the Y-haplogroup I1 must be identified with the Corded Ware in the north and the Bell-Beaker Folk in the south. The beginnings of the Corded Ware in West Europe are dated back to 2900 BC but its eastward travels ended in the Far East. Its final product became known as the cord-marked pottery of the Japanese Jōmon culture (13,000 BC or 16,000 BP). Such a temporal incongruence may be explained by deriving Gotho-Frisian tribes from the earlier Campignian culture of shell midden beachcombers. On the Iberian Peninsula they had closely related kinsmen in Franco-Swabian littoralids, who had earlier forerunners in the Asturian culture (9280±440 BP) in northwest Spain and its Portuguese counterpart referred to as the Mugem culture. Both used to produce bell-shaped beakers and imported their patterns to la cultura campaniforme in western coasts of Africa as far as Guinea and Angola. The cord-impressed ceramic travelled throughout the Middle East also to the Pakistani Mehrgarh culture (9,500 BC) and the Vindhyas culture in India (10,000) BC). Its migrations were accompanied by other characteristic traits: shell midden heaps, longhouses on seaside sand-dunes, heavy macrolithic tools, battle axes, dolichocephalous skulls, Europoid look and agricultural dispositions tending to grow foxtail millet. Such circumstances support Biasutti’s racial classification that denotes American littoralids (Columbidi, Lagidi, Fuegidi).

    The important point is that Preeuropidi had reached the coasts of the Far East around 13,000 BC and implanted an early version of Indo-European elocution in India. It were the priestly caste of Brahmans and the royal caste of Kshatriyas who implanted the seed of Indo-European Ursprache in India a long time before the arrival of Aryas (1600 BC). As a consecution, Vedic Sanskrit may regarded as a record of the Indo-European tongue before the arrival of the Maglemosian culture (9000 BC) smuggled into Europe by the Mesolithic invasion of Microlithic cultures of Turcoid origin and the Y-hg R1a. The trueborn Europids spoke a vocalic language with three-morae vowels and triphthongs and the opposition of voiced and surd voiceless consonants. The Germanic invaders were false Europeans who infiltrated their speech with the opposition of aspirated tenuis and lenis stops and Turcoid vowel harmony with front rounded vowels that caused the effect of the Umlaut shifts.    

    Their archetypal differences were manifested by absolutely incompatible phonologies and grammatical systems. African Negrids, Asiatic Caucasoids and European Nordids applied cordal languages, whose consonantism was based on the vibration of vocal cords and the opposition of voiced and surd phonemes (Table 5). They pronounced vocalic cordal phonemes based on open syllables and phonemes produced by airstream passing through vibrating vocal cords. If there were any structural changes, they were caused by mixing with Altaic agglutinating systems.

Table 8.  The nominal morphology of dolichocephals with macrolithic hand-axe industry

    Elementary grammatical systems fall into three types of nominal and verbal morphology. The gender-oriented morphology is attributable to the language family of tall dolichocephals with hand-axe industry and vegetal subsistence. In its original appearance documented in African, Melanesian and Australian Negrids it partitioned nouns into classes of animate, inanimate, vegetal and arboreal classes. These classed were distinguished by prefixes put in front of nouns. In the Horn of Africa their family ran upon Asiatic races with agglutinating language structures and transitioned to suffixing morphology of inflecting type. The group of Asiatic plant-gatherers, hoe-cultivators and agriculturalists reduced the system of twelve nominal classifiers to the opposition of animate and inanimate nouns. Their category included humans, animals, animistic spirits as well as sacral deities.

   This categorisation survived also in Anatolian tongues until their further expansion in the Balkans encountered Gravettian tribes of Alpinids with sex-based gender classifications. Their clash resulted in the rise of sex-based nominal gender enriched by masculine o-stems and feminine a-stems. The core of European Gothids accepted the dual opposition of masculine and feminine gender but their core remained reluctant to their addition and continued to adhere to nominal i-stems. Their subclasses coexisted with Caucasoid vegetal u/w-stems that can be explained as remains of Caucasoid b-plurals referring to agricultural crops and instruments of farming activities. The classification of Indo-European thematic and athematic stems may be regarded as a hold-over of ancient invasions and infiltrations surviving in residual form in the territory of Europe. The sex-based gender distinction of the suffixes -o and -a first appeared in African Chadic and Ethiopian Galla languages and their spread all over Europe was due to the Gravettian colonisation of short-sized brachycephals to the north. They were embedded into the system of IE accidence as new thematic stems distinguishing the masculine o-stems and feminine a-stems. The u-stems penetrated into the IE word stock with the propagation of Neolithic farming from the Fertile Crescent to the Danubian river basin.

Table 10. Conservative embeddings and regressive intrusions in Old Indian consonantism

   The first autochthons in India were Negrids, whose word stock with prenasalised stops was absorbed into Sanskrit by adding the prothetic vowel a-. As a result, the initial phonemes /mb- nd- ŋg-/ were encapsulated into its norm as amb-, and- and ang-. After the arrival of black-skinned Negrids of Oldowan origin there appeared a colonisation of Acheulean hand-axe cultures (800,000 BP) that discarded prenasalisation and replaced the prefixing ba-plurals of human beings with suffixal b-plurals as in Dravidian Gadaba and Gutob in North Indian Punjab. In dialects of Central Asia they accompanied the ethnonyms of Caspii and Lullubi. 

   The first Indo-European newcomers were Campignian Littoralists (10,000 BC) with cordmarked pottery, who colonized the Vindhya Range in Gujarat. They were not populous enough to Europeanise the entire Indian subcontinent but they disposed of an advanced educated religious tradition that enabled their Brahman descendants to get hold of an enviable scriptural monopoly. They managed to reinforce it as an official administrative standard used in religious rites. Their integration involved embedding the Brahmanic Proto-Gothic voiced plosives b, d, g into the local phonological framework with murmured breathed stops bh-, dh-, gh-. Their heritage may be ascribed to Acheuloid racial groups with Y-haplogroups G and H, whose occurrence culminates in the Indian subcontinent.  

   The Dravidian element in Old Indian was represented by retroflex consonants written as , , , , , , ɾ̣,  ɹ̣ but the IPA standard records them as /ʈ, ɖ , ɳ, ʂ, ʐ, ɭ, ɻ, ɽ/. They were notable for pronunciation with the tip of the tongue bent backwards in a concave or curled shape. Their use was obliterated in most language families but their remains often survive in the affricates tr- dr-, tl- and dl-. Most types of notation do not distinguish their apical and laminal pronunciation. The laminal retroflex consonants were characteristic of Tungusoid fishermen, who disseminated them in Eurasia with Aurignacian colonisations around 40,000 BP. The apical or cacuminal retroflex consonants must have been imported by Turcoid cultures with microlithic flake-tools around 11,000 BC.

  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Classification of Non-Indo-European Races in Europe

   Every Indo-European family consists of one dominant core that forms its pure-blooded ‘eteo-race’ and several concomitant subraces. Inherent subraces are consanguine ‘endo-races’, heterogeneous subraces are ‘allo-races’, alien invaders who acculturated as cohabitants of the dominant eteo-race. So Angles and Saxons belonged to the connate ‘endo-races’ of Jutes and Frisians. On the other hand, the Celts were only a disparate and inorganic collection of alien ‘allo-races’ that huddled around the eteo-races of Gauls and Gaels. Their territories overlapped with plantations of Magdalenian Iberians, Epi-Cardial Pelasgoids, Poladan lake-dwellers, Welsh sheep-breeders as well as Scottish cairn- and broch-builders. Despite regular intertribal skirmishes nobody ousted, expelled and exterminated anyone, all prehistoric migrations occurred as inimical but relatively peaceful infiltrations as ancient tribes occupied different natural ecotypes.

The principal thesis assumes that the greatest part of the Indo-European lexical substance was created by Europids (Danubian Gothids) but relevant contributions were made also by megalith-builders, Alpinids and Mediterranids. An intensive impact was enforced only by colonisations of Magdalenian Iberids and Maglemosian Cimbrids (Table 17). Maglemosians gave rise to Germanic languages and triggered the Great Consonant Shift in Common Germanic. The cultural influence of Mediterranids was imported mainly by Aurignacians, Madgalenians and Epi-Cardial Pelasgids (Table 15). Their linguistic loans partly survived only in Lydian and Carian. Alpinids created the domains of Celtic, Albanian and Slavic languages that are remarkable for patatalisation, satemisation, nasal vowels, tonal prosody and pitch accents.

Pseudo-Indo-European allochthones = Mediterranids + Ugrids/Macro-Dinarids + Norids + Alpinids

Ugro-Scythoids or Macro-Dinarids = giant brachycephalous beehive-dwellers with convex aquiline noses 

Norids = taller (meso-)brachycephals with four-pitch-roof marquee tents

Alpinids/Lappids = short brachycephalous semidugout-dwellers with concave noses 

Mediterranids = slender gracile mesocephals with small feet, narrow eye-fissure and high cheekbones

Tungids = slender gracile mesocephals with residual epicanthus and slanting eyes; they lived in tall tepee tents with crossed tent-poles and built anthropomorphous stelae

Pelasgids = slender gracile mesocephals with dark hair and dark brown eyes; they lived in conical roundhouses/rondavels and used ochre burials with tall standing stones (menhirs)

Turanids = slender gracile mesocephals who lived in rock shelters and artificial rockcut caves

Mediterranids = Euro-Turanids + Euro-Tungids

Ugro-Scythoids or Macro-Dinarids → Epi-Aterian Baskids + tumuli-grave Dinarids + kurgan-builders

Norids ← Hallstattians (900 BC) ← Sarmatids ← Sintashta culture (2,100 BC) ← Comb Ware (6,000 BC)

Euro-Tungids Levalloisian (95,000 BP) + Cardial Ware (6,400 BC) + Aurignacian (37,000 BC)

Alpinids → Gravettians (33,000 BP) + Stroked Ware (4,500 BC) + Cinerary Urns + Lusatians (1150 BC)

   Mediterranids. The traditional category of Mediterranids is firmly attached to the territory north of the Mediterranean Sea but it evokes association with similar human phenotypes evidenced in northern Europe as well as in India and other parts of Asia. Its semantic content is too broad and should be narrowed to two closely-related brotherly races of prehistoric nomadic fishers: Tungids with long prismatic leptolithic industry and Turanids with small triangular or trapezoid flakes inserted into bone hafts. These genuine varieties of Mediterranids are noted for exhibiting mesocephalic skull indices and high hypsicranic faces. The absence of these features makes it possible to distinguish them clearly from false Mediterranids (Atlanto-Mediterranids, North Atlantids, Berids) with long-headed crania.

Table 13. The colonisations and migration routes of Aurignacian Tungids in Europe

Tungusoid Mediterranids. The group of European Tungids is not documented satisfactorily by recent anthropometric measurements because it dates back to archaic Palaeolithic eras. The core of their populations arrived to west Europe with Aurignacian colonists from the Black Sea around 38,000 BC. Their heralds bore the original Tungusic Y-haplogroup C but with the progress of time they declined to zero values. Its rates were not increased by the Cortaillod-Chaséen and the Latenian revival, either. Neither of them brought a new genetic infusion of this genome from the east. As the Latenian/La Tène culture ranges from the Danubian estuary to France, Brittany and Ireland, the Pontic seaboard looks like the possible starting-point of its influx. As a consequence, we ought to adopt a more plausible hypothesis that the Latenian bloom should be estimated as a cultural revitalisation of Chasseén lake-dwellers propagating in eastward as well as westward direction. Provable conclusions indicate only repeated Latenian passages to Britain and Ireland from the boundary region between Switzerland, Italy and France. Toponymic studies suggest the following ethnic migrations of the Pontic homeland.

   The earliest ancestors of Spanish and West-European Iberids can be seen in Magdalenians, known as reindeer hunters with microlithic tool implements. The typical representative of their race was Chancelade man, documented also in ostial finds from Laugerie-Basse and the Duruthy cave near Sorde-l'Abbaye. Chancelade man exhibited a narrow but tall and long cranium, tall and wide face, prominent cheekbones, tall and narrow nose and high orbits. His burials, however, displayed also some incompatible heterogeneous admixtures: ochre dye characteristic of Aurignacian Tungids, and also some Europoid heritage. Europoid elements were demonstrated especially in the strong chin and the sagittal keel spanning along the suture between the parietal bones.

Mediterranids     Euro-Turanids + Euro-Tungids (Aurignacians) + Euro-Pelasgids (Cardial Impresso)
