Petey boy asked me for an example of archaeology
helping linguistics, insinuating that I won't be able
to mention one example. And he added in brackets
that of course he excludes the case of inscriptions,
in which archaeology helped linguistics a thousand
and one times. He still won't consider the possibility
that there are Paleolithic inscriptions preserved in
caves in the Franco-Cantabrian space, and that
paintings can also be language, a visual language.
So I had to remind him.

And you make all of that up, and, presto, it magically becomes true?

Not presto, the first part about PAS CA two years
ago, with the help of Holly who identified my PAS
for everywhere in a plain (here, south and north
of me, east and west of me) with the domino five
in the Brunel chamber of Chauvet, and the second
part about PIS NOS for the personification of water
in motion, more precisely of CA LAK, the heavenly
counterpart of LAK, the river of the Underworld
KAL, is own to my recent reconstruction of the
Paleolithic sky, triggered by Mallory and Adams's
melancholy comment that the Proto-Indo-European
view of the heavens is beyond recovery. I had long
ago interpreted the goddess and the bull on the
stalactite of the rear hall of Chauvet as the goddess
of the Summer Triangle and the supreme leader
of the lower Rhone valley, but I lacked words for
the heavenly river and the goddess, now I got them.
Not presto and magically, but owing to years of
constant and patient work, even against all the
pressure in sci.lang.
