Archaeolinguistics As A Way To Overcome The Impasse In Comparative Linguistics Wolodymyr H. Kozyrski1, *, Alexander V. Malovichko2 1The International Physical Encyclopedia Bureau, Mathematical Modeling Laboratory at The Bogolubov Institute for Theoretical Physics, Kiev, Ukraine 2Physics Laboratory, The Lyceum at The National Technical University “KPI”, Kiev, Ukraine [email protected] ABSTRACT The paper exposes some essential points of our one and a half decade research results within new approach to study prehistoric stages of human language development mainly in times of ergaster-erectus domination and reflects our reaction to the protracted conceptual crisis in the comparative linguistics. As a result of fundamentally incorrectly stated goals, most of the researchers artificially limited themselves both by the defined scope of the problems to solve and by the methods used. Becoming tightly tied knot of up to now unsolved intrinsic contradictions, today comparative linguistics needs radical change. We have developed a synthetic approach that has proved its effectiveness. Our model is well aligned with prehistoric data of auxiliary historical disciplines and even IBM Genographic project. The results offer further opportunities for interesting studies.

For more information, please contact [email protected], [email protected]. Toward "Linguistic Archaeology" John L. Sorenson Department of Anthropology Brigham Young University The study of lexicons for cultural content has a long history in linguistics, of course. The primary aims of such study have been either the description of a particular cultural scene, such as the Indo-European homeland, or else the reconstruction of language relationships within a family of languages. Nearly all of these considerations have been central or incidental to the historical concerns of linguists. The archaeologists and historians have been, for the most part, bystanders in the process. This paper maintains that a wide range of problems still remains to be attacked by linguistic means, problems of great concern to archaeologists. I propose increased cooperation between linguists and archaeologists which will redound mainly, but not exclusively, to the benefit of the latter. Some thirty years ago a similar linkage of interests took place in which physical scientists came to the aid of the archaeologists (especially with the advent of radiocarbon dating) only to find that a challenging new subfield of research was opened up to the former in the process. -

PROTO-SIOUAN PHONOLOGY and GRAMMAR Robert L. Rankin, Richard T
PROTO-SIOUAN PHONOLOGY AND GRAMMAR Robert L. Rankin, Richard T. Carter and A. Wesley Jones Univ. of Kansas, Univ. of Nebraska and Univ. of Mary The intellectual work on the Comparative Siouan Dictionary is relatively complete we and now have a picture of Proto-Siouan phonology and grammar. 1 The following is our Proto-Siouan pho neme inventory with a number of explanatory comments: labial dental palatal velar glottal STOPS Preaspirates: hp ht hk Postaspirates: ph th kh Glottals: p? t? k? ? Plain: p t k FRICATIVES voiceless: s g x h glottal: s? g? x? RESONANTS sonorant: w r y obstruent: W R VOWELS oral vowels: i u e 0 a nasal vowels: i- II ACCENT: 1'1 (high vs, non-high) & (possibly IAI falling) VOWEL LENGTH: I-I (+long) PREASPIRATED VOICELESS STOPS. We treat these as units be cause they incorporate a laryngeal feature that has attached it self to the stop, and because speakers today treat the reflexes of the series as single units for purposes of syllabification and segmentability. However, in pre-Proto-Siouan it is possible that there was no preaspirated series. The preaspirates pretty clearly arose as regular allophonic variants of plain voiceless stops preceding an accented vowel. This was pointed out by Dick Carter for Ofo in 1984. Even so, we have a number of lexical sets where it appears to be necessary to reconstruct plain voiceless stops in this environment also. Therefore, by the Proto-Siouan period the distinction between plain and preaspirated stops had appar- ently been phonemicized as shown by the following cognate sets: -

1 African Language Classification Beyond Greenberg
1 "Areal linguistics in Africa before a new approach to its genealogical language classification" Lecture 1, LLACAN, Paris, 9/3/2019 2 + his earliest classification was received positively - Westermann (1952: 256): 1 African language classification beyond Greenberg Greenberg is the first linguist who has attempted to give a classification of the whole range of Tom Güldemann African languages. He has not contented himself with a general survey, as all his predecessors, Humboldt University Berlin and Max Planck Institute for the Science of Human History Jena including myself, have done, but has gone into considerable detail; in each single case he gives his proofs in word-lists, in tabulated formative elements, and also on sketch maps; he does not 1.1 Before and after Greenberg (1963) quote all his sources, which would have been practically impossible; nor is it essential, since they are known to the expert. He confirms many findings of those who have worked before 1.1.1 African language classification before Greenberg him, he corrects a number of errors; although many of these had been refuted by others, it had seldom been done with such clarity and definiteness as here. It is quite possible that some of + relying heavily on non-linguistic criteria, couched in colonial European attitudes to Africa his statements and classifications may prove to be not sufficiently clarified, or that he has (notably "Hamitic theory") overlooked a language which cannot be shown to be related to any other in Africa; he will be + highly synthetic: 3-5 genealogically intended super-groups criticized, and some of his classifications may be rejected; but all this does not detract from the value of his study, for which all of us have to thank him. -
1. Introduction. 2. the Archaeological Record. 17
OLMEC PROTO-MIXE-ZOQUEAN: CAN YOU DIG IT?* Craig Hilts The Ohio State University 1. Introduction. The Mixe-Zoquean (MZ) family constitutes a group of Mesoamerican languages and dialects found in the isthmus of Mexico. Wichmann's (1995) reconstruction of Proto-Mixe-Zoquean (PMZ) uses data from 39 of these, from 18 sources. Campbell and Kaufman (1976) had hypothesized that the Olmecs of Southern Mexico were speakers of PMZ. They based their hypothesis in part on the number of apparent loan words from Mixe-Zoquean (MZ) among other language families in the area, in part on what they called "the rather sophisticated Mesoamerican culture" (p.81) represented by their reconstructed etyma for PMZ, and, I assume, in part on the geographical congruence of known Olmec sites and current MZ languages. Ultimately they proposed a glottochronological dating of 1500 BCE for PMZ, a result which may be somewhat controversial because of problems with the method itself. Jn this paper, I examine Wichmann's reconstruction of PMZ and offspring languages with several intentions. First, I use those etyma representing terms of material culture and compare them with available archaeological evidence and theory to examine on that basis the soundness of their inclusion in PMZ. I include some of the relevant etyma from reconstructed offspring languages in order to justify the apparent lack of terms which might be expected to appear in a cultural reconstruction. I then examine some glosses in comparison with the ethnohistory of the area and make a methodological point that reconstructing a language must include reconstructing the culture that is purported to have used it. -
Chapter 5 Nawat
Chapter 5 Nawat 5.1 Introduction This chapter introduces the Nawat/Pipil language. Section 5.2 explains the Nawat/Pipil and the Nawat/Nahuatl distinction. A brief history of the Pipil people is provided in section 5.3. Section 5.4 reviews the available Nawat language resources. A basic grammar is outlined in section 5.5. A more complete description would require more resources beyond the scope of the present project. Section 5.6 discusses the issues that arise for the present project, including what alphabet and dialect to use. Section 5.7 provides a summary of the chapter. 5.2 Nawat – Some Basic Facts Nawat versus Pipil In the literature, the Nawat language of El Salvador is referred to as Pipil. The people who speak the language are known as the Pipil people, hence the use of the word Pipil for their language. However, the Pipil speakers themselves refer to their language as Nawat. In El Salvador, the local Spanish speakers refer to the language as “nahuat” (pronounced “/nawat/”). Throughout this document, the language will be called Nawat. El Salvador is a small country in Central America. It is bordered on the north-west by Guatemala and on the north-east by Honduras. See Figure 5.1 for a map of Central America. El Salvador (Used by permission of The General Libraries, The University of Texas at Austin) Figure 5.1 Map of Central America 75 Nawat versus Nahuatl Nawat is an Uto-Aztecan language (Campbell, 1985). It is related to the Nahuatl language spoken in Mexico (which is where the Pipils originally came from, see section 5.3).
