This volume challenges Proto-Indo-European linguistic theory. Using the Table of Equivalent Consonants (TEC), the author finds that many words in use today in Europe can be traced back much further than might be expected. Hunting and fire are major categories in all the word-lists generated by the TEC.

Sheila McGregor has been working on historical linguistics in relation to major European languages for more than three decades. She is dedicated to showing that there are alternatives to Proto-Indo-European linguistic theories. In particular, she proposes that using the Table of Equivalent Consonants (TEC) suggests that words are much older than we think. Hunting, fire and words related to trapping of animals have common roots across many European languages. The author shows this in Word-lists. This is the first volume of a 12-volume series by McGregor on Culture and Language.
