Summary Excerpt Details

In this work the problems of origin and migration of Aryans and especially the development of their language have been studied. The analysis of these problems has led to the formation of the African theory of the Aryan ethnic group origin. This hypothesis is the cornerstone of this monograph, covering all of its chapters. As the material testifies, primary signs of the phonetic formation of the Indo-European protolanguage have their origin in the Bantu languages and other languages of Africa. They explain the «law of open syllables» in Slavic languages.

In general, the linguistic analysis indicates the migration routes of the Aryans, who departed from the African continent in about VII century B. C. and headed off in the direction of Asia Minor and the Mediterranean coast. At that time the Aryan community split into two groups – the Western, which went from Asia Minor to the Balkans, forming Hittite, Armenian, Greek, Albanian languages, and Eastern group, which travelled through the Caucasus from the East and met with Finno-Ugric tribes. Subsequently, the Aryan group was divided into two subgroups: the Eastern, which went to China to form the region of Ordos (Tocharian language), and the Western, which occupied the Northern Black Sea steppe of Ukraine to the Carpathians.

In III Millennium B. C. there has been a breakdown of this Aryan ethnic group, which gave birth to Slavs, Balts, Germans, Celts, Illyrians and Thracians who migrated into Central and Northern Europe. Earlier Indo-Iranians moved through the coastal lands to the North of India. On the whole, this study demonstrates convergent development of peoples, according to which the Aryans initially consisted a heterogeneous ethno-lingual totality which, on the basis of territorial proximity and Gentile, formed into a relatively unified ethnic group and «higher» language (Koine) which evolved into Indo-European languages.

Zielsetzung und Themenschwerpunkte

Die Arbeit untersucht die Herkunfts- und Migrationsgeschichte der Arier, mit besonderem Augenmerk auf die Entwicklung ihrer Sprache. Die Analyse dieser Themen führt zur Entwicklung der afrikanischen Theorie der arischen Ethnos-Herkunft. Diese Hypothese bildet den Kern der Monographie und zieht sich durch alle Kapitel.

  • Die afrikanischen Ursprünge der indogermanischen Protosprache
  • Die Rolle des Substrats in indogermanischen Sprachen
  • Die Migrationsroute der Arier aus Afrika
  • Die osteuropäische Hypothese der arischen Herkunft
  • Die Kontakte der Arier mit anderen Völkern (Semiten, Sumerer, Uralische Völker)

Zusammenfassung der Kapitel

Das erste Kapitel befasst sich mit der methodischen Grundlage der Forschung zu den Problemen der arischen Herkunft. Es analysiert die Entstehung des phonetischen Systems der indogermanischen Protosprache, die Rolle der „diachronischen Konstante“ in der Forschungslandschaft und das Phänomen des Substrats in indogermanischen Sprachen.

Das zweite Kapitel untersucht die Verwandtschaft zwischen der indogermanischen Protosprache und den Sprachen Afrikas. Es beleuchtet die Entstehung des phonetischen Systems der Protosprache, die prä-indogermanischen Merkmale und die Migration der Arier vom afrikanischen Kontinent.

Das dritte Kapitel befasst sich mit der osteuropäischen Hypothese der arischen Herkunft. Es behandelt den Kontakt der Arier mit den Uralischen Völkern und die Migration der Arier zum Schwarzen Meer sowie den Einfluss des Trypillier-Substrats.

Schlüsselwörter

Die Arbeit fokussiert auf Schlüsselthemen wie die indogermanische Sprachwissenschaft, die Entstehung und Entwicklung der indogermanischen Protosprache, die afrikanischen Ursprünge der Arier, die Migrationsgeschichte der Arier, das Substratphänomen in Sprachen, die osteuropäische Hypothese der arischen Herkunft und die Kontakte der Arier mit anderen Völkern.
