Inhaltsverzeichnis:
1. Introduction
2. Are the data appropriate for comparative phylogenetic analysis?
3. Tree construction: are phylogenetic trees accurate representations of cultural histories?
4. Mapping other cultural features to lexical trees: divergent evolutionary histories, mechanistic (un)identifiability, and model shortcomings
4.1 Do different cultural traits have different evolutionary histories?
4.2 When is the use of methods that require historical coherence justified?
4.3 What about methods that detect yet do not require tree-like structure in the data?
4.4 Are there correlations between the drivers of cross-cultural similarity that create a false impression of ‘fit’ to the language tree?
4.5 Are model shortcomings giving unwarranted precedence to tree-like inheritance patterns?
5. Conclusion
