More modern proposals attempt to link the Hurro-Urartian family with either the Northeastern Caucasian language family (via Igor Diakonoff and Sergei Starostin's proposed Alarodian language family)  or with Indo-European languages (via Arnaud Fornet and Allan R. Bomhard). Neither proposal has gained much traction within mainstream historical linguistics, with some scholars raising doubts regarding the arguments advanced in favour of a genetic relationship between the language-families,Smeets, Rieks (1989).  or else, at least, maintaining that the evidence is—as yet—inconclusive.
