Due to the need of other, non-European online shops, we had to prepare other printing formats for the Print-on-Demand services that Amazon.com and Lulu.com offered.

We open this new site dedicated to the Proto-Indo-European language and its derived dialects - whether dead or alive - with a simple series of highly hypothetical historical ethno-linguistic maps, showing the supposed Indo-European language development in Eurasia since Pre-Proto-Indo-European, some 7.000 years ago.
We plan to dedicate this new site to different resources and articles [...]
