Who were the Proto Indo Europeans? And how do we know this? In this video, I go through updated information, maps of migrations, and talk about the key aspects that allow us to understand who the Proto Indo Europeans were, where they migrated to, and the resultant cultures, peoples, and languages. I also touch on the Indo European Creation Myth, which my next video will take a deep dive into.
