Old map from 2021 "showing the area of origin of the East Germanic languages in pink, semi-fading since concept of land use differed & it's impossible to know borders.

In cards are given possible locations, -timeframe & -causes of the extinction of select East Germanic languages

In brackets is information that is uncertain. Also keep in mind causality issues - like say for example some languages might have never gone extinct due to adopting Latin in the first place had they not seen expulsions by other tribes moving westwards in the first place."

This will be the master-post for all of my maps if it's possible to set up. All maps I'll upload will branch outwards from this one post as a thread. I actually don't know yet what all the hashtags will be for each individual map, so I'll include the most general ones here, for future reference. #art #maps #map #mapping #mapmaking #HistoricalMaps #GeographicalMaps #LinguisticMaps #mapstodon #histodon #histodons
