Lexicanum says the Emperor was born around 8,000 B.C. But its source, 'Realm of Chaos', was published in 1988/1990.
My source is 'the Master of Mankind' novel, published in 2016.
The book mentions
1. bronze weapons
2. the Proto-Indo-European language
3. the first city in human history.
1. The bronze age in the Near-East region lasted from 3,300 B.C. to 1,200 B.C. source
2. The Proto-Indo-European language was spoken from 4,500 B.C. to 2,500 B.C. source
3. The first cities are estimated to be built around 4,500 B.C.(2,900 B.C. for those with proper walls). source
Actually not very sure about this because the city called 'Çatalhöyük' existed from 7,500 B.C. to 6,400 B.C.(according to Wikipedia).
Anyway, that's why I assumed that the big E was born around 3,300 B.C. to 2,500 B.C.
And as always, thank you for reading and have a nice day.

ReplyDeleteThe Wikipedia article on the Proto-Indo-European language mentions the Anatolia hypothesis, which posits that PIE may have "spread out from Anatolia with agriculture around 9000 BC".
