<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Dear
Lowlanders,<br>
<br>
Please bear in mind that this is not meant to cover heavy-duty academic discussion
but deals with boiled-down representations for popular consumption.</p>

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"> </p>

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Also,
bear in mind that I am always very skeptical whenever there is talk of people having
“disappeared” or “died out.” I believe that in the majority of such cases we ought
to assume that such people came to be absorbed rather than were victims of genocide,
and remnants of their languages and cultures in substrata along with their DNA.</p>

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"> </p>

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">I stumbled
across a two-part video about the remarkable socio-cultural changes that were introduced
to Europe with the arrival of the Indo-Europeans:</p>

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Indo-Europeans
in Northern Europe</p>
