For the first time, a model of migratory routes was put forward based on combined research efforts of the disciplines involved in our project. Below we shall attempt to summarise the main points and reflections of our findings. Our specific approach as a whole is based on applying the respective research methods of the individual disciplines represented in our project, namely anthropology, ethnomusicology, history and linguistics and eventually on integrating the results into a systemically coherent picture T3 - Berichte des Sonderforschungsbereichs 268 - 14, 179 Y1 - 2000 UR - http://publikationen.ub.uni-frankfurt.de/frontdoor/index/index/docId/1850 UR - https://nbn-resolving.org/urn:nbn:de:hebis:30-35597 VL - 14 SP - 179 EP - 187 PB - SFB 268 CY - Frankfurt, M.
