So back in 2007, Finnish Assyriologist Simo Parpola (from the University of Helsinki; to my knowledge, he seems to be relatively respected as an assyriologist) was working on classifying Sumerian as belong to the Uralic language family (specifically, the Finno-Ugric branch). He seems to be the only Assyriologist to have attempted this or accepted such an idea in recent times (but perhaps that doesn't mean so much given there are so few Assyriologists who know enough about Sumerian, linguistics and Finno-Ugric languages to actually perform such a task). Back then, he said he would be publishing his extensive comparative research (basically, an etymological dictionary of Sumerian) in an online database for as many people to actually verify for themselves the etymological links between Sumerian and Finno-Ugric languages. However, 10 years later, I can't find any sort of information on that whatsoever.
Do any Finns know what's up with that? If he gave up on his research or something? The implications if he's correct could be pretty huge for /fug/: they would effectively allow you guys to proclaim yourselves as the ultimate "WE WUZ".
