Nostratic

(Learn how and when to remove this message)

A phylogenetic representation of Nostratic proposed by Allan Bomhard in 2008 Nostratic is a hypothetical language macrofamily including many of the language families of northern Eurasia first proposed in 1903. Though the Nostratic hypothesis once had a measure of support among mainstream linguists, it is now generally considered a fringe theory with very low support. The exact composition of languages families included in Nostrastic varies based on proponent; it typically includes the Kartvelian, Indo-European, and the controversial Ural-Altaic family, as well as the Afroasiatic languages, and the hypothetical Elamo-Dravidian languages.
