Introduction
Starting during the 18th century,
attempts have been made to classify the world's languages into one
comprehensive genetic system of families. Nyland
(2001) pointed out that this effort has been very frustrating for many
linguists because organizing languages into such a system has been like
playing a game of musical chairs. Major languages were shifted from one
language family to another, whole families were bundled into super families
on very shaky assumptions, proto languages were concocted, others were split
off and given their own family tree. Faulty reasoning and dreaming resulted
in some of these assumptions to be accepted as gospel and given credibility
by contrived systems of phonological correspondence, created by an obsessive
group of linguists known as the Neo-Grammarians. The best-known
example of this is the theory of the Indo-European Family of languages
that is based on the crippled reasoning that if the observed relationship between
the languages is not accidental, it must be genetic. Most of the
Neo-Grammarians' inventions have long ago been put into the dustbin, but what
remains of them is taken as evidence that modern linguistics in some
important sense is still to be considered as a science. It now appears that
modern linguistics is solidly founded on religion and not on academic
substance. In a desperate attempt to make
some sense out of the profusion of languages, linguists have been searching
for the "Mother
Tongue", also called "Proto-World". This initiative
is now considered a most controversial contrivance in linguistic circles.
Many linguists shy away from attempting to re-construct the ancestral
language, calling such attempts speculative and sensational. The much quoted
Dr. Vitaly Shevoroshkin (U. of Michigan) is a great supporter of the
"Mother Tongue" theory and he assumes that "most words are
stable and change very little, ....... words such as body parts have been
with us from the beginning". This assumption could have been correct
except for one small problem; during the past 4,000 years some of the major
religions have put linguists to work, subjecting languages they wanted to be
rid of to acrostic manipulation and mutilation. Their efforts were aimed at
totally burying the original language of the world's first civilization, in
many cases with the use of a strictly adhered to formula which now allows us
to reconstruct the origin of the concocted words. Hundreds, if not thousands,
of these fabricated words are shown in Edo Nyland’s web pages (see Pages). Their efforts have resulted in a very large number of invented languages, which on first sight have no
relationship to the original language, but upon detailed examination can be
shown to have originated from the ancient Saharan
language. If it hadn't been for the drastic
and intensive efforts of the ancient grammarians, a few genetic trees of
languages would likely have done the job. Through the years, there have been
a few courageous doubters among the linguists such as M. E. Landsberg
(Columbia Univ. S.C.) who wrote: "Indeed, courses in historical
linguistics at Universities all over the world, in spite of much
perplexing evidence to the contrary, mostly still persist in adhering to
strict Indo-European theories". Those who did not follow the
Indo-European gospel and sounded the alarm bell risked their immaculate
academic reputations by indulging in what was called "Trans Linguistic
Investigations,"
resulting in being censored by the dogma-ridden majority that still rules the
discipline. Students are forbidden to study the possible academic fraud
behind the Indo-European theory and those who did look into it were
stonewalled, isolated and ridiculed. Doubting the Indo-European theory became
"taboo" and resulted in a quick forced exit from the profession.
One professor to whom Nyland explained his findings commented: "You are
excavating recesses into which an academic with the instincts of a gentleman,
would never venture". Is it surprising that this subject of Invented Linguistics is so much unexplored? SAHARAN
LANGUAGE
The height of the Ice Age came about
16,000 bce. and was followed by rapid deglaciation which created enormous
changes in air-circulation over large parts of the world. Hardest hit was
North Africa where a dense population, spread over many independent tribes,
had developed since about 38,000 bce The effect of this global weather change
caused serious desertification that started to be felt around 10,000 bce.
(See Climate). The tribes occupying the Central Sahara
had to adapt to ever increasing drought conditions. It is now obvious that
the Sahara had been the location of the first true civilization on earth. It
had a highly developed religion based on holy respect for the wondrous
reproductive and nursing capabilities of the human female, a fully evolved language,
a democratically organized and disciplined system of tribal groups, a strong
oral tradition and a number of sciences such as astronomy, mathematics,
architecture, agriculture, irrigation technology, leather tanning, boat
building, sailing and star navigation. For thousands of years the tribes
living along the shores, later called the "Sea Peoples", had been
sailing and fishing on the oceans. Surplus population had been sent to
colonize the lands of Europe that had been vacated by the glaciers. However,
the forced exodus, which started after 6,000 bce.., meant that all tribes had
to move away from the most affected areas in the center. These were being
ferried by the "Sea Peoples" to available lands that had previously
been explored by them around the Mediterranean and the Black Sea. They of
course brought their religion, language and oral traditions along with them.
The language was astonishingly complex and all encompassing for such an early
Stone Aged people. In fact, it seems highly unlikely that this amazing
Saharan language was formed naturally from the basic onomatopoeic language,
which is embedded in it. Like the complex astronomical and mathematical
knowledge of these people, their language was so well-organized and logical
that it must have been the product of highly qualified linguists, even at
that very early date. For details about this language invention, see "Translating Ogam". Therefore,
Nyland has called the Saharan language the first highly evolved and invented language on earth. LEVELS OF LANGUAGES DEVELOPED FIRST LEVEL LANGUAGE DEVELOPED
There is no way to tell when the
Saharan language was brought up to this high level of linguistic proficiency,
but it may well have been done before 10,000 bce. The most likely place where
this could have been done was in the religious center of the Goddess in the Ahoggar Mountain massif in southeastern Algiers. By
that time, the demand for leather sails had outstripped the available supply
in the Sahara and a large hunting camp had been established on the migration
route of a huge reindeer herd in Arctic Norway, at a place now called Mount
Komsa. Petroglyphs, cut into the rock at Mount Komsa, tell an interesting story
because they are very much like the drawings on stone at the 7,000-foot level
in the Ahoggar Mountains as well as being similar to some of the art in the
caves of the Pyrenees. The huge exodus from the Sahara
started in earnest about 7,000 bce., reaching a peak between 5- and 6,000
bce. This extremely mobile civilization was familiar with the entire world.
Refugees went to many countries, all maintaining their Goddess religion,
their strong oral traditions and their language. While still in the Sahara
these traditions had been centrally reinforced from the Ahoggar, now that the
population was mostly shifted to Europe and the Near East, the religious
center was moved to Malta,
which was accessible to all tribes of the Atlantic coast, the Mediterranean
and the Black Sea. The megalithic remnants of their Neolithic cathedrals
attract thousands of tourists today to Malta. When the new religion of the
male gods arrived, several new names were given to the same Saharan language.
They are still spoken in outlying areas such as: Elamite
(Mesopotamia), Canaanite
(Canaan), Minoan (Crete), Hatti (Anatolia), Ligurian
(Italy), Pictish (Scotland), Cruithin (Ireland), Cythian (Black Sea), Basque (Pyrenees), Ainu (Japan), Dravidian (India),
Olmec (Central America),
Polynesian
(Oceania).
All of these languages changed and evolved but those that are still
spoken, such as Ainu and Dravidian, can easily be recognized as belonging to
the genetic group of Saharan languages. Of all these isolated languages, it
appears that the Basque language is still the closest, by far, to the
original language. SECOND LEVEL LANGUAGES DEVELOPED
Because of the religious work,
probably in the cult town of Nerik, in the Hittite
Province of Kizzuwadna,
a new male-dominated
religion was
created. It purposely inverted all
aspects of the Goddess religion and reduced the stature of the Goddess to
spouse of the new God king, a forerunner of the later Judaic religion (See
Raphael Patai: The
Hebrew Goddess). The Saharan language was so dominant within the Goddess
religion, its tribal organization and in its worldwide coverage that around
2,000 bce. the decision was made to destroy it, the oral tradition and its
tribal system by any means possible. This order was repeated much later in
Genesis 11:7 "Let us confuse their language so they may no longer
understand each other's speech". They began with creating new languages
for the Hittite empire: Lycian, Luwian, Palaic, Lydian and Hittite,
creating each with its own script. THIRD LEVEL LANGUAGES DEVELOPED
Over many centuries, the religious
center in Kizzuwadna sent out groups of highly educated missionaries to
various parts of the world with orders to introduce male domination, a new religion,
create a new language and an original script. This effort resulted in: Sanskrit (India), Ancient
Egyptian (Egypt), Ge'ez (Ethiopia), Greek (Greece), Etruscan (Tuscani), Iberian (Spain), Hebrew (Israel), Ugaritic (Syria), Tocharian (China), Japanese (Japan),
Toltec (Central America), and possibly a Yiddish/Gothic related
language in Russia. Could these have been the Twelve Tribes of Israel? FOURTH LEVEL LANGUAGES DEVELOPED
Several of these languages spawned
their own when: Hebrew scholars created the Semitic languages e.g. Arabic, Phoenician,
Syriac, Aramaic. Sanskrit
scholars created a host of Northern Indian languages: Maldivian,
Sinhalese, Vedda, Kalasha,
Kashmiri, Nepali, Bengali
etc.
FIFTH LEVEL LANGUAGES DEVELOPED
The Benedictine monks, working
from scriptoria on the east coast of England, developed the basic structure
of the Germanic group of languages such as: English, German, Dutch, Norwegian, Swedish etc.
Benedictine monks working from the Pannonhalma
Scriptorium in Hungary created Hungarian,
which special invention technique was taken north to create Estonian,
Finnish and
Lappish.
All these
languages have the Saharan/Basque language as their core. The above is very
preliminary and needs more work. It appears that the Sino-Tibetan, Amerind, Austric, Australian and Khoisian language groups were not involved
in this effort to distort and make over.
Nyland has proposed no changes in these. |
