Corded Ware Mystery: Are Indo-Europeans & Türks related? | part 2

A mysterious undirect ANE ancestry from a yet-to-be-identified ancestral population in north-central Asia with a wide distribution between the Caucasus, the Ural mountains and the Pazific coast. Who were these people? Native Americans? Indo-Europeans? Ural-Altaics? | https://www.nature.com/articles/s4146... | https://archive.org/details/andronovo... | https://www.v-stetsyuk.name/en/Topo/B... | http://s155239215.onlinehome.us/turki...

And it becomes more fascinating during the ongoing genetic studies being conducted one after another. It turns out, we are all related. Somehow. But we do not know exactly why and how we seperated. At least we can say that Altaic people stem from the same anthropological trunk which generated IE peoples.

The mythology of the Altaian Turks, for example, is so nearly identical with that of the early Scandinavians that some close association in the not far distant past is necessary. Furthermore, the ritual of the horse sacrifice is so integral a part of the religion of both Indo-European and Altaic-speaking peoples that recent diffusion alone cannot explain the identity.

The field of Indo-European Studies has been heavily influenced by colonialist ideology often referred to as Eurocentrism. Such theories contend that every major civilization in history is of Indo-European origin. Though increasingly discredited in mainstream scholarship, pan-European pseudoscientific theories have gained widespread support in many post-European countries, where it has served as a form of national therapy, helping its proponents cope with the failures of the colonial past. A leading light among them is Marija Gimbutas, a ghostwriter of Adolf Hitler, who finally shaped the myth of the pureness of "Indo-European blood" and the concept of the "Aryan super-race", accompanied by an early pan-Germanic spirit in the 19th century (M. Zakiev, 2002; A. Häusler, 2002; M. Alinei 2006). // http://s155239215.onlinehome.us/turki... | https://link.springer.com/book/10.100... | http://www.nomadsed.de/fileadmin/user...
