MENU OF THE UIRALA ARTICLES
(mobile friendly)

These articles explore the current information from archeology, paleoclimatology, population genetics, languages, and so on, to explore one facet of history since the Ice Age, the development of the boat as a central part of a ways of life  - much like the automobile and truck today - and how this innovation allowed humans to travel some 5 times further or farther than previously on foot, and use all water bodies and rivers as readymade highways.

THE LANGUAGES PERSPECTIVE
The investigation into the story of the birth and expansion of northern boat-oriented hunter-gatherers is/was an original multi-disciplinary investigation, based mainy in archeological and associated discoveries over the past century. Languages are naturally one of the areas that can contribute some data to this multidiciplinary approach. We provide discussions about languages in separate articles below

THE VENETI: A CONSEQUENCE OF THE BOAT PEOPLES SUCCESS WITHIN EARLY CIVILIZATION
While much of the boat peoples remained in the world of aboriginal hunter gatherers, about 5,000 years ago, the boat peoples discovered their boats could serve a major role in civilizations to the south, in transporting goods between the stationary agriculturally-based settled peoples. Professional large scale traders developed, and from it there developed a Veneti trade system north of the Mediterranean, as widely distributed and busy as the Phoenicians and Greeks in the Mediterrean. Due to this view that these Veneti originated from the northern boat peoples, and spoke a Finnic language, we had to spend some years deciphering the writings left in northern Italy by these people to show they were in a Finnic language
Work on the Veneti has been a separate pursuit, and is found in another part of this website.  Return to the main menu for links.
