the Wheel and Dating PIE

[Hans Holm]

SG>>>But: the use for wheel seems to be specific IE.

SG>>Not really.  Gamqrelidze and Ivanov quote Sumerian gigir, Hebrew
SG>>gilga:l, galgal, Georgian borbal, gorgal, "wheel" or "chariot".

SG>And there's Sino-Tibetan *golo.

After all these additions I try to summarize by two interpretations:
1. With the meaning 'wheel,chariot' it can be assumed as a cultural
    "Wanderwort".
2. With the meaning 'round' (often redublicated) it seems to be a
universal.
