The Origins of Germanic Languages

There is no hard boundary between languages Germanic never just no one just woke up one day and started speaking Germanic that didn't happen. The first proto-Germanic speech would happen sometime between 500 BC and 1000 BC probably closer to 500 BC so quite late. Why did the urnfield culture abandon kurgen burial practices in favor of cremation? There was a time when there were people who could not be killed for their skin without being buried alive. What do we know about Odin, how old was wotenazDid he proceed Proto-Germanic possibly but again you're asking me a question i cannot answer no one can answer it and i don't like to answer questions
