[QUOTE]Originally posted by Clyde Winters: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by xyyman: [qb] Also we now know: 1. That The Guanches language is indeed connected to North Africa 2. There speculation that Indo-European language has a Southern root(Dr Winters and others?) 3. Most interpretation of genetic papers follow a “script” and reads like science fiction 4. Meso Americans have a Polynesians source and Siberia/East Asian Source. May be the linguist and historians on here can tell me if that Ptolemy was ACTUAL included in Egyptians ancient text?! Significance? --- Quote Fringe linguistic theories Arnaiz-Villena and Jorge Alonso-Garcia claim to have used Basque to decipher many of the ancient languages of the Mediterranean and Middle East which are known to be unrelated to Basque,[37][38] including Egyptian, Hittite, Sumerian, Hurrian, Ugaritic, Akkadian/Babylonian, Elamite, and Phoenician, all of which they claim have been misidentified and mistranslated by the world's linguists and epigraphers for a century. They[b] characterize mainstream research as "science fiction stories".[/b][39] Arnaiz-Villena's Egyptian translations, for example, include the cartouche of the bilingual Rosseta Stone in which Champollion[b] identified the name of Ptolemy[/b]; in Arnaiz-Villena's interpretation it[b] does not include that name[/b], so that it is actually Arnaiz-Villena who deserves credit for deciphering the hieroglyphs.[40]. Similarly, in Arnaiz-Villena's interpretation the Code of Hammurabi contains "no hint of laws" but is a Basque funerary text,[41] and his purported Basque material proper includes the Iruña-Veleia graffiti, [b]which had been identified as modern forgeries by a multidisciplinary team[42] half a year before his decipherment was published[/b].[43] They also claim to be able to read poorly attested languages such as Etruscan,[b] Iberian, Tartessian, Guanche, [/b]and Minoan, which no-one else has been able to decipher with any certainty. They posit that these are all part of a "Usko-Mediterranean" branch[44] of the speculative Dené–Caucasian language family, [b]which they extend to include the Berber languages of North Africa[/b].[16][45][46][47] This thesis flatly contradicts basic Egyptological, Sumerian, Semitic, Indo-European, and Mesoamerican scholarship. Phoenician, Akkadian/Babylonian, Ugaritic, and Eblaite, for example, are transparently Semitic languages, and Arnaiz-Villena excludes the rest of the Semitic languages from his family; Egyptian and Berber along with Semitic have been demonstrated to be Afro-Asiatic, and generations of linguists have been unable to find a connection between Berber and Basque or Afro-Asiatic and Basque; and [b]Hittite is widely acclaimed as a key in the reconstruction of Proto-Indo-European,[/b] which Arnaiz-Villena acknowledges is completely unrelated to Basque. De Hoz says their work "lacks the slightest value and is contrary not just to the scientific method but to common sense", and "is an unmitigated disaster which in principle should not be reviewed", but that he does so because it was published using public funds by the respected Editorial Complutense, which might give it undeserved credibility. He calls this a "crime" against legitimate research which has gone unpublished for lack of funds.[48] Pichler likewise describes the "decipherment" of the Canary Island inscriptions as "comic", pointing out that Arnaiz-Villena "translated" an inscription of the alphabet as if it formed words (starting with "fire deceased earth prayer" in Basque), and also found it amazing that the university would publish his books.[49] The "Basque" words he translated into are themselves dubious, including some that are modern neologisms and some that are loanwords from Romance languages, such as bake (from Latin pace "peace"[37][50]), and which therefore can say nothing about ancient Basque connections. Lakarra, taking as a sample the list of 32 items entitled "Lenguaje religioso-funerario de los pueblos mediterráneos", provided by Arnaiz-Villena and Alonso as evidence for their decipherment, calculates that of the alleged Basque roots proposed by Arnaiz-Villena and Alonso, 85% are faulty or spurious, sometimes "verging on the clumsiest falsification", while even the remaining 15% is unclear.[51] [/qb][/QUOTE]Arnaiz-Villena looks at blood groups and HLA.His work is pretty good, especially his work on Africans in Pre-Columbia America. People are still mad at him because he illustrated the relationship between Africans and Greeks, and his work on Jewish blood groups. He was recently in contact with me so he could get copies of my articles which he plans to use in his work and he sent me one of his recent articles. I don't see anything wrong with his decipherment of Iberian scripts.Maybe people don't like Arnaiz-Villena because he dosen't doctor the results of his research to support status quo arguments. moreover, interestingly much of his research often points back to Africa. He, like most anthropologists believe that the original Basque people were the Celts. But interestingly, the Basque language is considered to be based on Dogon, see: http://www.blogseitb.us/basqueboise/2013/04/06/has-the-origin-of-basque-language-finally-been-discovered/ ; and http://www.languagesoftheworld.info/bad-linguistics/basque-descend-dogon.html Other researchers, see a link between Georgian and Basque, but Georgian is just a variant of Dravidian.
