Abstract

A comparison of words in the Akarimojong and Gaelic languages reveals a large number of similar words with related meanings. Not only are there many isolated words in common between the two languages, but also there are many themetic words related to cultural activities such as construction of dwellings, animal husbandry, cultivation, food processing and personal adornment. Extension of the research reveals the existence of Akarimojong words with similar meanings to words or phrases in Hebrew, Sumerian, Akkadian, Spanish and Tibetan among other languages. The geographic spread of these modern languages and the extensive commonalities between thematic word lists suggests that the various languages formed a single entity some time in the past, possibly as early as the Late Pleistocene.
