finnic against uralic
Finnic is a bad term for uralic speaker, it is a oldgermanic word. Better is uralic People or Pre-Saami or so. The westfinnic coast stay to this time under northern culture influence. They gave this land the name "Finnland". The romanian historic had not understand that Finnic people are Northgermans and Saami are Uralic People. They called the uralic peoples as Finns.
A new study say, the volosov-culture was east-uralic speakers. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.252.65.44 (talk) 02:18, 3 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
You need to tell us the name of the study at least, or the author.
I agree that "Finnic" is far too specific. I have changed it back to "Finno-Permic". However, "Uralic" would probably the best option. Petri Kallio and Jaakko Häkkinen others have argued that Proto-Uralic may well have been spoken as late as 2000 BC (in the Kama basin, in fact, which would allow an equation with the Volosovo culture). Even if Proto-Uralic were as old as Proto-Indo-European (which seems to have diverged before 3000 BC), the individual branches do not appear very old, only about 2000 years at most. Therefore projecting them back into the Early Bronze Age is not advisable. Proto-Permian has been dated into the late 1st millennium AD; it makes little sense to speak about Proto-Permian or even Pre-Proto-Permian in the 3rd millennium BC. Even for East Uralic as a distinct entity that appears a bit early. --Florian Blaschke (talk) 01:32, 6 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Burials under barrows?
I found no attstation for barrows in the Fat'yanovo Culture in Anthony (2007). On the contrary, on page 380 he only describes "flat-grave cemeteries". If no better source is given this probably mistaken word will be cancelled.HJJHolm (talk) 07:04, 3 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
