[QUOTE]Originally posted by Swenet: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Tukuler: [qb] Talk of coincidences, seems DJ not only had Keita (2010)'s admonishment but also that Blench article perculating in mind at the same time I did. MY last post was on stuff up till Friday and I only read later stuff Sunday evening. I was wondering about reposting the Blench exerpts (a lot of work) here since bumping them where they are'd be counterproductive. He acknowledges the Guarage lump in the imported from Arabia Ethiopian Semitic gravy but I still haven't found any exaustive work picking Gurage apart as to local or import origins -- just that it is Semitic and is an outlier to every and all other Semitic subphyla and their further lects. Just like Mushabian moved Levantward from Egypt other peoples overran Daryal Gorge into Levant. I don't know about all Semitic but biblical Hebrew is riddled with non-Semitic lexicon. [/qb][/QUOTE]As to your last paragraph above, I have read that the non-Semitic lexicon found in Hebrew as well as Aramaic is Hurrian in origin. I've even read from several sources that certain customs of Levantine folks like the status of sisters being as prominent in a man's family as his wife (echoing Sarah) and establishing covenants with deities are all Hurrian in nature. [/qb][/QUOTE]Interesting alternative to Ehret. If I recall it correctly he said that indications of these marriages types are in proto-Semetic. [/QB][/QUOTE]
