Early PIE -- Ice Age language spoken in Eurasia,
from Northern Spain to Malta in Siberia, center in
the Franco-Cantabrian space

Middle PIE -- center Göbekli Tepe, begin of
agriculture at the base of the Karacadag some
10,000 years ago, first mining and melting of
copper in the Jordan valley and in Anatolia
at the same time

Late PIE -- spoken in the steppes between
Anatolia, rich in copper, and Central Asia,
rich in tin, giving way to IE with the casting
of bronze, with bridles and taming horses

That's great, really is, you know where and when were
these PIEs spoken. No doubt, you are going to tell us
real soon what are your proposed linquistic features
distinguishing between them. When somebody quotes
a reconstructed PIE word we need to be able to identify
which PIE era he is talking about.
