Is This How Our Ancestors Sounded? Linguist Recreates Proto-Indo-European Language | Huff Po

This is nice stab at what Proto Indo European would sound like (the ur-language from which almost all Eurasian languages come from, from English to Sanskrit, spoken ~6500 years ago, i.e. “we” spoke the same language as the “Iranians”)
Our ancestors were very guttural! In it you can hear the sounds that branched off into 439 different languages. Sounds like Lord of the Rings talk.
