Этот же метод был использован для построения графической модели родства финно-угорских языков. Таким образом были определены ареалы формирования финно-угорских языков на пространстве ограниченном реками Волгой и Доном. В подтверждение приводятся известные и новые примеры лексических соответствий между финно-угорскими языками с одной стороны и индоевропейскими и тюркскими с другой, а также древняя топонимия оставленная финно-уграми на своей прародине. Также приводится Гипотетическая картина миграции финно-угорских племен. Текст иллюстрирован несколькими картами.

The Hungarian Byzantine scholar I. Moravcsik discovered the full text of the epilogue and, in 1930 published the part of the work. According to the author, among them were phrases in the Alanian language. They can be translated using Old English.

Определение "царский" относится к господствующему племени в племенном союзе. Аргументы в пользу того, что таким племенем были англосаксы, приведены в статье Аланы-англы-саксы. Соответственно, территорию, находившуюся под властью англосаксов, условно можно назвать Царской Скифией. Состав населения Скифии-Сарматии определется по топонимам, которые можно расшифровать с помощью разных языков. Земли скифов, которые Иордан называл Ойум, связываются с окрестностями города Кадиевки. Главенствующее положение англосаксов в племенном союзе объясняется тем, что часть из них заняла на Донбассе территорию, богатую месторождениями медной руды, освоила их эксплоатацию, наладив добычу и переработку меди, и это обусловило их дальнейшую судьбу, в чем их дальнейшая судьба. Новые археологические материалы позволяют с уверенностью говорить о том, что на Донбассе неподалеку от Кадиевки по крайней мере в эпоху поздней бронзы существовал большой горнометаллургический центр, где не только добывали руды, плавили медь, но и поставляли изготовленные орудия, металл и руду. Локализация медных месторождений позволила разрабатывавшим их племенам получить новый мощный источник обогащения, и благодаря собственному металлу горно-металлургические центры подчинили своему влиянию огромные территории.

At the end of the 6th millennium BC, the Indo-European tribes migrated to Eastern Europe, where their common proto-language was divided into languages of a new level, which we will call primary and from which all modern and dead languages related to Indo-European developed. The localization of the territory where the formation of individual Indo-European languages took place was determined in the basin of the middle and upper Dnieper by the placement of the graphic model of their relationship in the ethno-forming areas formed here by a branched river network. Additionally, information on the mutual proximity of individual languages according to authoritative linguists was used.

The ancestral homeland of the Ural peoples and their settlement in Eastern Europe are studied using the graphic-analytical method and verified by other means. The whole Finno-Ugric territory is clearly limited by the Volga and Don River, playing the role of natural boundaries, as powerful water obstacles. Only Mordovians moved to the right bank of the Upper Don that is where it is easy to be crossed, came close to the Indo-European settlements separated from them by the Oka River. As the Indo-European space, the Finno-Ugric territory also has "empty" habitats. They are at least two – to the south of the Oka River and on the right bank of the Volga. You can assume that the Finno-Ugric tribe known as "Meshchera" populated the first "empty" area in the neighborhood with Finns, Mordvinians, and Cheremisses.

It is important to believe in the truth of knowledge. Therefore, a lie can be useful if somebody believes in it. The erroneous theories that people believe in act as placebos, just as in medicine diseases are treated with substances that do not have medicinal properties.

In particular, such additional information is graphical models of the relationship of languages of one family, built based on lexical and statistical data. The article presents material indicating the cultural and linguistic contacts of the population of Eastern Europe in the Bronze Age, taking into account the spatial and temporal localization of the ancestral homelands of the speakers of the ancestral languages, determined using the graphic-analytical method. The direction of the search for such contacts was suggested by the proximity of the areas of languages belonging to different families. Examples of contacts confirm the location of the territory of distribution of Indo-European, Finno-Ugric, and Turkic languages, provide topics for other purely linguistic studies, and sometimes explain phenomena that seem “obscure”.

The article Chuvash-German language correspondences pursue a similar goal. Both works are based on the presence of ancient Turks in Europe in prehistoric times. The text contains 77 Slavic-Turkic lexical correspondences. Two-thirds of them are in the Chuvash language alone

There were three migration routes - along the Caspian Sea, through the Caucasus and the Balkans. The complexity of the topic determines numerous references to other publications of the author.

To confirm the conclusions drawn during the research process, historical information, and data from archeology, anthropology, ethnography, geography, and other disciplines were used. The narration of this article begins with the substantiation of the Urheimat of the Proto-Turks in Transcaucasia in the area of Mount Ararat. The further history of the Turks continues in the steppes of the Azov and Black Sea regions, which ends with their expansion as carriers of Corded Ware cultures and the migration of most of them east towards Altai. The return of former CWC carriers to the steppes heralds the beginning of the Scythian period in history. The article contains links to 82 authors from different countries in Europe and Asia, as well as 11 illustrations, mainly maps.

The decoding of the inscription was made by V.F. Miller using the Ossetian language.
Miller believed that there was a Christian city in this area, from which the ruins of churches were preserved, and suggested that it was the center of the Alan diocese (metropolis), which is mentioned in Byzantine literature. However, not all agreed with the decoding of Miller, because he introduced eight additional letters into the text, which were absent on the stele and without which it can not be by means of the Ossetian language. I suggest reading the inscription in English and give an explanation for this phenomenon.

Расшифровки имен известных по летописям половецких ханов с помощью разніх язіков показали, что среди половцев тюрки составляли приболизительно половину. Восемь имен могли принадлежать курдам и четыре – англосаксам. Чеченским, венгерским и литовским языками расшифроно по три имени.

Сліди зв'язків айнської мови з ностратичними дають підстави пов'язувати майкопців з айнами.

Предлагаемая здесь работа является первой попыткой отыскать лексические соответствия между тюркскими и индоевропейскими языками, которые можно отнести к тому времени.
The war between Ukraine and Russia makes us better understand the difference between Ukrainians a... more The war between Ukraine and Russia makes us better understand the difference between Ukrainians and Russians. Such an opportunity is provided by the study of the folklore of both peoples, which reflect their national character. In this work, an attempt is made to compare individual features of the psychology of Ukrainians and Russians based on the collections of proverbs and sayings collected by Dahl and Nomis. In both collections, paremias are grouped into categories corresponding to various psychological characteristics of people. All categories were divided into 9 groups, which are based on the sensual, rational, and irrational components of mass consciousness. The calculation of folklore units showed that the sensual component prevails in the national character of Russians, the rational component characterizes Ukrainians more, and the irrational component, which is generally insignificant, noticeably distinguishes them from Russians.

В заключение был сделан вывод, что такого народа никогда не существовало и хазарский язык являетя выдумкой лингвистов. Слово хазар является титулом правителя Хазарии.
Геродот писав, що серед усіх скіфських племен були "царські скіфи". Поряд із племенами язигів, ур... more Геродот писав, що серед усіх скіфських племен були "царські скіфи". Поряд із племенами язигів, ургів, роксоланів, аорсів, сираків та інших Страбон виділяв також "царських сарматів". Очевидно, що визначення "царський" відноситься до панівного племені у племінному союзі. Аргументи на користь того, що таким племенем були англосакси, наведені у статті Алани-англи-сакси і таке становще відповідає загальній парадигмі Anglo-Saxon Superiority. Відповідно, територію, яка була під владою англосаксів, умовно можна назвати Царською Скіфією. Загалом склад населення Скіфії-Сарматії можна визначити за топонімами, які можна розшифрувати за допомогою різних мов. Вони наводяться на Google My Maps (скрин див. на Мал. 2). Панівне становище англосаксів у племінному союзі пояснюється тим, що частина з них зайняла на Донбасі територію, багату на родовища мідної руди, освоїла їхню експлоатацію, налагодивши видобуток і переробку міді, і це зумовило їх подальшу долю, в чому проглядається певна історична закономірність. Нові археологічні матеріали дозволяють з упевненістю говорити про те, що в Донбасі принаймні в епоху пізньої бронзи існував великий гірничометалургійний центр, де не лише добували руди, плавили мідь, а й постачали виготовлені знаряддя, метал і руду у сусідні території. Як слушно зазначав Є.Н. Черних, локалізація мідних родовищ дозволила племенам, які їх розробляли, отримати нове потужне джерело збагачення, і завдяки власному металу гірничо-металургійні центри підпорядкували своєму впливу величезні території (Татаринов С.И. 1977, 206).

The size of these territories determined the degree of the split of their parent languages. The use of the graphic-analytical method made it possible to determine the areas of formation of their daughter languages. The place names that have been preserved since then confirm their localization and also mark the paths of their later migrations. This makes it possible to associate toponymic with archeological data, that is, to determine ethnicity with specific archaeological cultures. In particular, the Germans were the creators of the Trzciniec culture. The assignment of the Zrubna culture to the Iranians is beyond doubt.

However, other similar events do not have such consequences, and this is the mystery of the Maidan, as a special case of the movement of the masses. There is a reason for the appearance of Maidans, but it is not obvious, and not even all philosophers see it, but everyone will agree that the Sun has a great influence on our behavior. For example, we do not take an umbrella with us in sunny weather, in the heat we mostly drink beer, but we drink vodka when the sun's rays go out or are completely absent. There are many such examples, but they will not give us a complete picture of how strong the influence of the Sun is on us.

In recent years, interest in the personality of King Arthur has increased significantly in Russia... more In recent years, interest in the personality of King Arthur has increased significantly in Russia, which is largely due to the translation of the book of the British historian H. Reid into Russian [REID HOWARD D. 2001}. The content of this book gives grounds for readers to see in the image of the legendary king a "Russian prince". The basis for such a fantasy is the "Sarmatian trace" considered in the book, which can be found in the legends about this king. The interest in King Arthur in Russia is understandable, but the interpretation of the hypotheses of historians in the spirit of the imperial ideology, which is popular in this country and feeds aggressive moods there, causes concern. This fact shows how responsibly historians should approach their work and not use dubious or outdated theories. In this sense, this article is presented as an alternative to the works mentioned above.

However, modern scythology has reached a dead end. Still in 1952, at the conference of the Institute of the History of Material Culture on the issues of Scythian-Sarmatian archeology, a "final" conclusion was made about the Iranian belonging of the Scythian language on the basis of the "achievements" of Soviet linguists, among which special merit belongs to V.I. Abaev [MELUKOVA A.I. 1989, 37]. Further studies by archaeologists gave reason to believe that the conclusion was hasty. But with all doubts, they can not refute linguists, and now the scythology is practically tramping in place. The article provides a critical assessment of modern scythology and a general introduction to the consideration of the Turkic ethnicity of the Scythians.

However, the existence of many place names over the millennia suggests that it was permanently inhabited to such an extent that it predetermined some cultural and economic continuity. Accordingly, the Donbas does not fall under the existing definition of a “wild field”. If there was a permanent population here, then the question arises about its economic activity. There is reason to believe that the capital of the Royal Sсythia was located on the site of the modern city of Kadievka in the Luhansk region, Ukraine, and was originally called Kadievek.
