Just finished this. It was as I thought it might be – on current evidence, we don't really know.

The archaeology part, the first two thirds of the book, held me. But then we got into genes and I just couldn't keep up. He may be a cunning linguist, but he lost me totally in Chapter 9, The evidence of language.

Overall a good read though.
