Abstract

In this paper we present a new methodology for determining the evolutionary history of related languages. Our methodology uses linguistic information encoded as qualitative characters, and provides much greater precision than previous methods. Our analysis of Indo- European (IE) languages resolves questions that have troubled scholars for over a century.
