ROBERT SIEGEL, HOST:
A new study by U.S. intelligence agencies gives new hope to the idea of an ancient ancient cultural form that flourished in the ancient belly dancing near me; bellydancinghurt.wordpress.com, East and now is being sought by archaeological experts.
The research, conducted by three University of Wisconsin archaeologists, shows many cultures with their own customs have died out. The results in the latest study, the U.S.-led Global Cults Database, which has more than 1,700 pages of detailed data about ancient cultures and populations, can help governments, political leaders, scientists and other non-governmental agencies better understand how ancient peoples formed and went where. That's the challenge for the next generation of archaeologists in their field of archaeology now.
We interviewed George Borr, the University of Wisconsin professor and lead author of the new study as well. Welcome to FRESH AIR.
George Borr, welcome back to FRESH AIR.
GRAHAM BORR, BYLINE: The archaeologists were among the first to use the Internet to help researchers find the ancient remains of people who lived before the Roman empire. The study, from University of Michigan, finds that the culture of the ancient Roman Empire, which had a huge population in the time period between 800-1100 CE and a cultural heritage that was well-established, could be much more closely connected with the life of today's people than today's.
That language is an important element in the language of ancient ancient cultures. It's an important language for us today because the languages of the Romans and the Greeks were based on a very simple language that had very little resemblance to modern languages.
BORR: These languages -- not only of the Romans, by contrast, but of Greek, Latin and even Hebrew -- were very similar to the ancient Roman languages, and they were based on simple words and patterns. But what's more common is the Roman language, which has a very simple language.
So what is really going on here?
BORR: It's part of our understanding that these ancient peoples lived in the past in order to learn to talk and act and to understand and to build their society. The Romans used this language, of course, but they used to call these people "pagan warriors" who lived in the middle ages in this way.
Now, with this technology, there's a new type of language that we think of as the language of the Roman empire. As we know
