Language[edit]

The language of the Karasuk culture is assumed to have been Yeniseian since many of the place names are clearly Yeniseian, particularly the names of rivers, throughout the area. This is the basis for giving the name Karasuk languages to a proposed language family for both the Burushaski and Yeniseian languages. There are obvious problems in terms of the time line for this. While the location is logical for this movement on the way to the lower Yenisei where recent Yeniseian languages are or were found, it could just as well be the original home of the Yeniseian people[citation needed]. This would conflict with the belief that the ancestors of Yeniseian peoples were along the Lena river at the time the people who would become the Na-Dene in North America[citation needed].
