Alarodian
The term Alarodian languages was first proposed by the linguistics scholar, Professor of Oriental languages Fritz Hommel (1854-1936) to refer to the combined family of languages of the indigenous, non-Indo-European tribes of ancient Asia Minor and the Caucasus (Proto-Iberian tribes). Further research on this group of languages was later published by K. Ostir (1921, 1922), A. Svanidze (1937), Giorgi Melikishvili (1965), I.M. Diakonoff and S.A. Starostin (1986).
