I think this is the first time I have ever seen
“evolutionary-linguistic phylogenetic statistical methods to differences in Homeric, Modern Greek and ancient Hittite vocabulary items” in a sentence.
I seem to have enough trouble with simple english pronouns, this, well this is probably all Turkish to me

BCE BC for these great works.

We then used a likelihood-based Markov chain Monte Carlo procedure to estimate What did Homer say?

Not your father's ancient Greek. Nor your forefathers.
