Continuity of European Languages from the Point of View of DNA Genealogy

Abstract

The combination of linguistic and DNA Genealogy data indicates that the aboriginal Europeans, the Y Chromosome haplogroup I people were the Proto-Indo-Europeans and the Proto-Slavic speakers. In contact with newcomers of other language groups mixing took place. Either the newcomers were absorbed into the autochthonous Proto-Slavic community, or the native Proto-Slavic population was so effected by the immigrants that they lost their Slavic identity and formed a language, which remained Indo-European but no longer recognizable as specifically Slavic. The Kurgan Theory and the Pontic Steppe Theory of the Indo-European origin failed completely. The Neolithic Discontinuity Theory theory gives only a part of the necessary explanation. The Paleolithic Continuity Paradigm is superior to them, but it has to be adapted to the data presented by the DNA Genealogy about the timeframe and probable localities of past events.

Linguistic Distances Based on Counting of Equal Sounds in Numerals from 1 to 10 in Different Language Groups

“…It indicates strongly that Proto-Slavic existed at least in central Europe before the ancestors of Aryans and Avestans leaved it about 4.500 years ago. This has been additionaly substantiated taking into account the DNA Genealogy data (Jandáček and Perdih, 2017, Perdih, 2016, Perdih, 2018, which indicate that after the catastrophe caused by the cosmogenic mega-tsunami about 68.000 years ago (Yurkovets, 2015, Yurkovets andVasilenko, 2017) the survived humankind first expanded from Europe to other continents. Later on, the mixing of different branches took place as well as the recurring migrations into Europe.…”

“…There is to be drawn the attention also to the Slavic linguistic traces observed all over the southern, western, and northern Europe (references collected in Perdih, 2016, Perdih, 2018. These traces indicate that the aboriginal Proto-Indo-European was Proto-Slavic and their speakers were mainly the Y Chromosome haplogroup I, mtDNA haplogroup U people almost exclusively inhabiting Europe for about four tens of millenia.…”

“…It seems to had started not approx. 15 millenia BCE in the Fertile Crescent (Bomhard, 2014, Bomhard, 2018 but earlier, at least about 60 millenia ago if not much earlier (Perdih, 2018) in Europe and separately in Africa. It was followed by the primary expansion of people and the accompanying divergence of language during the time span of about 60,000 to 40,000 years ago, followed by the complex events of divergence and convergence on mixing at different times in different localities.…”

Staroverstvo - the Old Religion - the Slovene Pre-Christian Religion

“…In view of the independent novel observations as put together by Perdih (2013Perdih ( , 2016Perdih ( , 2018Perdih ( , 2019 it is indicated that the roots of the Posoško staroverstvo derive from more than 70,000 years ago in this and surrounding regions. The independent novel observations are i.a.…”

Synergistic Evaluation of Data Presented by Archaeology, Anthropology, DNA Genealogy and other Disciplines Can Lead to Better Understanding of Past Events

“…The DNA Genealogy data presented by Klyosov were collected, illustrated and compared to data from other disciplines [11][12][13][14]. From these comparisons emerged i.a.…”
