Summary/Abstract: Since the creation of the world and since the emergence of human life, up to our times, there have been all sorts of hypotheses helping to define each people, to characterize it and even to analyze it. The complexity of data related to its birth, to its development and expansion in time shows the necessity and the desire for putting them together, so as for us to have a better picture of them.
