by Michael Cysouw, Dan Dediu, and Steven Moran Comment on “Phonemic Diversity Supports a Serial Founder Effect Model of Language Expansion from Africa” by Michael Cysouw, Dan Dediu, and Steven Moran Science Volume 335(6069):657-657 February 10, 2012 Copyright © 2012, American Association for the Advancement of Science

Fig. 1 Areas of “origin” of various other inventory-like linguistic characteristics as identified using Atkinson’s methodology. Areas of “origin” of various other inventory-like linguistic characteristics as identified using Atkinson’s methodology. Notably, the origins are dispersed over the whole globe and not concentrated in Africa. The dark red area in Africa is the origin of phoneme inventories as proposed by Atkinson. The dark green area in Africa and the Near East is the corresponding area based on the UPSID phoneme inventory data. The small red area on the eastern tip of New Guinea is the origin for the UPSID phoneme inventory data using a quadratic geographical distance model. Details about the other areas can be found in (2). Michael Cysouw et al. Science 2012;335:657 Copyright © 2012, American Association for the Advancement of Science
