Nilo-Saharan classification

Astaboran is a name and a subclassification offered by Christopher Ehret, not by Bender. It is highly disputed among specialists of the field, who accept - with reserve - only Eastern Sudanic as a cluster.

One should present Ehret /s subgrouping of Nilo-Saharan as his personal hypothesis, and not as a generally accepted concept. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.153.59.244 (talk) 20:24, 29 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
