 Colin Renfrew, Baron Renfrew of Kaimsthorn
The Anatolian hypothesis of Proto-Indo-European origin is the suggestion that the speakers of the Proto-Indo-European language (PIE) lived in Anatolia in the Neolithic, and associates the distribution of historical Indo-European languages with the expansion during the Neolithic revolution during the 7th and 6th millennia.
On the other hand, it is unlikely that early PIE predates 4500 BC, because the reconstructed vocabulary clearly indicates a culture spanning the Chalcolithic and Early Bronze Age, with knowledge of the wheel, metalworking and the domestication of the horse.
Renfrew's revised "Indo-Hittite" scenario has thus approached the Kurgan model at least in terms of time depth, with a split of "PIE proper" in 5000 BC, essentially proposing a timeframe of the order of one millennium earlier than that of the mainstream view, as opposed to four millennia in earlier versions.
