Indo-Europeanization in the Mediterranean

Meer over het boek

The book delves into the complex process of Indo-Europeanization in the Mediterranean, beginning around 3100 BC. By employing a multi-disciplinary approach that includes archaeology, epigraphy, history, and linguistics, the author reveals the layered nature of this cultural transformation across regions like Iberia, Italy, Greece, and Anatolia. Challenging existing paradigms, it argues that previously overlooked languages are indeed Indo-European, suggesting a redefined understanding of the linguistic heritage and the origins of Indo-European culture in the North Pontic and Caspian steppes.
