1. This is fictional dating, not accurate any more anyway.
2. They were still the same people, not different.
1. But what if this dating is fictional?so approximately 5000 years before the Proto-Uralic languages have formed.
2. Why 5000 years cancel something?
3. Indoeuropeans came to Europe 5000 years ago, but we are still IEs, and we will be as such 5000 in the future. So? what the problem?
4. Proto-Uralic it is simply hypothetical last common stage of toung used by N-men.
5. As Szegedist pointed out, there are some problems witn this family, and since today.
6. I think, that Uralo-Altaic hypothesy can be more accurate in remodel version as traditional.
7. And there can play a great role N folk.
Ok, but he had his previous stages, as every language, and his speakers.There is no scientifically accepted theory how did the Pre-Proto-Uralic language sounded like, and to which other languages was it related to.
Whatever they speak earlier, they are still the same people. Uralic deffinitly
is not OE, and came to Europe quite recently. Maybe european dialects are
influenced by local languages, maybe they pidgined together, but the core is
N-speak and came with them. How modern version of speech was transformed
we will never know, but we know, were people came from, and even, if they
would originally speak in Ugabuga, then they are still the same people.
All languages came from two-three dozens of isolated languages.In prehistory many languages started out as language isolates from one another, as many groups lived in seclusion from one another for large periods of times. The same thing can be presumed about Proto-Uralic, as it shows no similarity to Paleosiberian or Altaic languages in vocabulary.
So it doesn;t bother me at all. What I am interested is, which people
originally speak which proto-language adn where they came from.
N-folk had to speak some language in Manchuria, and it is very
very probable, that it was a pre-version of Uralic, no matter how
many time passed, and even if he mutated under way to Österland
and Pannonia.
And returning to the Kama theory, she is very weak, and unprobable
in the time which you propose, becasue firstly, then lived other people,
secondly, there is no agreement to existing one uralic proto-langauge
and thirdly, N peope does not came here so early. I agree with XXth
century estimations, that for example Finns came to Finland at beast
3000/2000 years ago, but they could be preceded by some pioneers
even 1000 years earlier, which did not lived in coherent settlement.
