Could proto-Uralic be the lost language group of Nordic peoples? Before Indo-European conquest?
Obviously the Finns and Estonians migrated to where they are. But they may have been Eastern Uralic peoples. I am wondering if there were possibly proto-Uralic dialects that existed in Scandinavia before the Indo-European Germanic language was taken.
[h=2]Language[edit][/h]Previously, the dominant view was that the spread of the Comb Ware people was correlated with the diffusion of the Uralic languages, and thus an early Uralic language must have been spoken throughout this culture. However, another more recent view is that the Comb Ware people may have spoken a Paleo-European (pre-Uralic) language, as some toponyms andhydronyms also indicate a non-Uralic, non-Indo-European language at work in some areas.[4] Even then, linguists and archaeologists both have also been skeptical of assigning languages based on the borders of cultural complexes, and it's possible that the Pit-Comb Ware Culture was made up of several languages, one of them being Proto-Uralic.[citation needed]
what do you think of this : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pit–Comb_Ware_culture
4000 BC is after the R1a1 samples found (5500-5000 BC) , but these early R1a1 porbably didn't speak IE yet
it is the arrival of pottery from Siberia
the origin of this type of pottery is China, 25000 year ago
the pottery arived in eastern Siberia, near the river Amur 13300 years ago
it looks like this pottery came along with N1c1 or N1c1a from eastern Siberia
