The Mitanni, Medes, Hittites and Philistines were the other Indo-European groups in the Mid East.

That looks pretty good. Are you sure the Philistines weren't Semitic?

Looking at my own question about the Philistines: they were probably refugees ("sea people") from Crete after the big Thera volcanic popoff best remembered through a haze of legend as the downfall of Atlantis. (It was really the Minoans on Crete.) It looks from a cursory scan tonight as though their language hasn't been deciphered very far.

And the Hittites and Philistines were descended from Ham.
