It would be interesting to gauge the degree of patrilineal replacement in Mestizos. Perhaps the Bronze Age, Indoeuropean tradition has continued

new kind of found poetry where you pretend that a series of unconnected lines in a linguistics book are all part of the same poem

"What is the most profound difference between us, between you and me? You already know it. It's these ancestral memories. Mine come at me in the full glare of awareness. Yours work from your blind side".

Youth-Warriors of the Indo-European Wolf-Cult

The kóryos is a hypothetical iniatory military fraternity theorised to have existed in Proto-Indo-European society based on traditions found in sundry Indo-European socities, such as the Irish fianna.

This is a largely fictional depiction of a warrior-youth partaking in a kóryos initiation-ritual. Since the kóryos is largely a reconstructed rite, without any written accounts, and scant archaeological evidence, this sketch is a composite based on the imagery of the Kernosovskiy Idol, the Torslunda Plate Beserkr, and the Warrior of Hirshladen.

Another illustration inspired by the kóryos tradition, this time focusing on the possible connection between the cult-fraternities and the origin of the werewolf in pan-European mythology. The kóryos iniation rite is believed to have involved a ritual wherein the youths "died" and were reborn as wolves filled with a warrior frenzy (see: Cú Chulainn, Berserkr). During their summer rangings, these frenzied youths would raid other settlements and engage in theft, murder and rape; all sins commited while "in wolf-shape" were believed to be cast off when a second ritual to excise the warrior frenzy was performed.For example, after the young Cú Chulainn slew the three sons of Necht and was overcome with battle-fury, the household of Conchubar mac Nessa had to literally boil away the boy's rage. One taboo which werewolves are frequently shown transgressing is cannibalism, and the above illustration shows a kóryos member with man-blood still fresh on his lips.

"If a man has sexual relations with a cow, it is an unpermitted sexual pairing: he will be put to death." Similar relations with horses and mules were not subject to capital punishment, but the offender could not become a priest afterwards.

Indo-European languages : The Celtic Languages

Here are the 6 Celtic languages, divided in 2 families. Cornish and Manx are both slowly getting a revival, and Breton, Welsh, Scottish Gaelic and Irish were all historically repressed. Nowadays educational programs are put in places to make the languages survive, it's estimated that 17% of the Welsh population can speak Welsh.

Hm...only five major branches of the Indo-European languages are known to have somehow maintained a separation between the three series of PIE stops, and only three of those, Hellenic, Indo-Iranian, and Italic, had plain voiced stops in the written record corresponding to those in the standard reconstruction of PIE.

These were the same three branches that, when compared together, caused academics to hypothesize Indo-European as a family and launched Indo-European studies as a discipline. Could it be that examination of these three is producing a bias in the reconstruction in PIE?

It’s not even possible to reliably reconstruct /b/ for any of these branches to the periods between splitting from PIE and their own internal breakups. Classical Greek /b/ is from PIE *gw, which never bilabialized in Mycenaean, *m in certain contexts in words without known Mycenaean cognates, and substrate words also without firmly established Mycenaean cognates. Sanskrit /b/ sometimes agrees with Avestan and Old Persian /b/, but that is due to Grassmann’s law, which, due to deaspiration in Proto-Iranian, might or might not have been active in Proto-Indo-Iranian. Latin /b/ comes from Proto-Italic *p in certain circumstances where it did not change in other Italic languages; /dw/ during its written history (see the Duenos Inscription); and medial *β, which instead devoiced in Oscan-Umbrian.

Do the anti-glottalists really think a language could have had /d g/ without /b/ for thousands of years, and that multiple descendants could have maintained the same typologically unusual arrangement until the earliest attestations of the Italic languages and of archaic Greek around the ninth century BC?

Het ging de afgelopen week veel over Eritrea. Over Eritreeërs, over de Eritrese diaspora, over regeringsgezinden en zelfs over pro-regeringsgezinden, maar geen enkele keer ging het over de etymologie van het woord Eritrea. Terwijl die toch zo bijzonder is.

This interests me due to the tradition of traducianism found in early Church writings. The basic concept is that the spirit of a child is comprised of "stuff" from the spirits of the parents. It's analogous to the formation of the physical body.

In this way, the grandfather can appear in the grandchild, all though not necessarily as a fully reincarnated consciousness.

This is just another way that the Christian spiritual landscape can find congruence with the Indoreuropean mind.
