Mother Tongue (journal)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mother Tongue is the yearly periodical of the Association for the Study of Languages in Prehistory (ASLIP), appearing since 1995. Its goal is to encourage international and interdisciplinary information sharing, discussion, and debate among geneticists, paleoanthropologists, archaeologists, and historical linguists on questions relating to the emerging synthesis on language origins and ancestral human spoken languages. This includes, but is not limited to, discussion of linguistic macrofamily hypotheses.
