Uncovering the Roots of Indo-European Languages

A groundbreaking study has pinpointed the origin of Indo-European languages, tracing them back to a group of hunter-gatherers.

These early speakers, a loose confederation in southern Russia some 6,000 years ago, gave rise to languages like English and Sanskrit.

Researchers analyzed ancient DNA from fossilized bones to reach this conclusion, adding fascinating details to linguistic history.

The findings have sparked debate among linguists, with some supporting the rigorous research, while others maintain skepticism.
