ABSTRACT

After over 150 years the search for the homeland of the Indo-Europeans (IE) has still not achieved the type of solution that commands more than either partisan support or acceptance (often uninformed) by those wishing to defer to whatever ‘experts’ with whose works they have come into contact. That the homeland has been discovered there can be no doubt as it has been sought anywhere from the North to the South poles and from the Atlantic to the Pacific (Mallory 1973). Temporally, it has been located anywhere between 80,000 BC (Neanderthals) and c. 1600 BC (the expansion of chariot warfare from eastern Anatolia).
