 | | For this period anyhow, we have some hints that the population of at least parts of europe already was indoeuropean, as we know that the first greek migration has to be dated to about 1800 BC, and those greeks, as far as we know, already spoke an indoeuropean language. |
 | | However, we do not know if this change from preindoeuropean to indoeuropean had, at this time, already taken place in all of europe, or if this was the first time that somebody met indoeuropeans in Europe. |
 | | As a matter of fact, however it was, it has to be stated that the great mass of the population even in case of an invasion would stay the same "preinvasion" population and only slowly being changed through intermixture to a new population, a mixed invader-invaded population. |
