ASLIP
The Association for the Study of Language in Prehistory
Mother Tongue Journal is published by the Association for the Study of Language in Prehistory, founded in 1986 by Hal Flemming. In the early years (1986-2003) the publication took the form of a newsletter entitled “The Long Ranger” because it focused on long range comparisons of macro language families. The Mother Tongue Journal was formally established in 1995.
