The Proto-Indo-European Language Revival Project
began as an entrepreneurial project for the University of Extremadura, which intended the revival
and modern use of the reconstructed prehistorical language deemed the ancestor of most European languages and many
languages spoken in Asia and the Americas.
The first contacts with Indo-European studies were disappointing, showing no support whatsoever
for such a complete reconstruction of what is usually believed to be a rough and incomplete language
system, usually seen as a scientifical hypothesis very difficult to prove within traditional linguistics,
without known written records of some early PIE dialect. Like the findings and theories of Palaeontology, Psichology, History
and theories on Black Holes and Stars, Historical Linguistics (and
especially the Comparative Grammar) is not in the position to prove the common beliefs beyond doubt.
Following such difficult start, we decided to fund an informal group (later legally incorporated as
Indo-European Language Association) to work on the complete practical reconstruction of the language and on
its adoption as EU's national language. After the 2006 Prize in Innovation, we decided to undertake this task more seriously, releasing the project for the public.
Our aim is thus not only to offer the available works and findings on Proto-Indo-European, its ancestor and
its dialects, but also to facilitate further research concerning the different theoretical aspects of the proto-language and its
reconstruction.
To date, we are not offering any financial help for researchers.
