University of Copenhagen.

University) and Michael Weiss (Cornell University) as well as David Anthony
(Hartwick College) and Kristian Kristiansen (University of Gothenburg) for the
linguistic and the archaeological section, respectively.


Call for Papers: 

We invite papers dealing with the reconstruction of the Indo-European
proto-language with a special focus on the early stages of the splitting
process into individual language branches. Interdisciplinary topics combining
linguistics, archeology, comparative mythology and culture are more than
welcome.

A period of twenty minutes will be allotted for each speaker, followed by a
ten-minute discussion.

Abstracts must be received by 15 May 2017.

Abstracts should be no longer than 400 words. They should indicate the precise
topic to be treated, the author’s contribution to the problem, and the
relevance of the results for the conference focus. Abstracts should be sent
via e-mail as attached PDF and Word files to Matilde Serangeli
qcs496 at hum.ku.dk.

If an abstract is accepted the author is invited to send a revised abstract by
15 July 2017 for publication online. 

Further information on the conference will be provided in the next months.

We are looking forward to your contributions!
