  Abstract:  Phylogeny of Language, Migrations out of Africa, and Language Classification. From Guillaume’s 1958-1960 lectures on his three area theory I will move to Teyssier’s language phylogeny and his three articulations, then to the migrations out of Africa, the three regions they occupied and the three families of languages they spoke: Semitic, isolating and agglutinative / synthetic-analytical languages, respectively built on the first, second and third phylogenic articulations. Each migration must have left Africa when language there had reached the concerned articulation. We have to re-evaluate Guillaume’s theory accordingly.

Keywords. Out of Africa, Semitic, Isolating, Turkic, Synthetic/Analytical
