Conclusion: originating in the A-N-I linguistic Subgroup:

A-N-I subgroup                      sex            %                dev. Chain
Armenian Family names                      99%            (A; N; I; R; K; O; H)
African/Oth.                            F              80%            (A; N; I; M)
The Pillars of Heaven                           78%            (A; N; I; E; S; L; R)
Swim                                                        68%           (A; N; I; U; E)
Dungeon                                                  68%             (A; N; I; E; O)
Ring                                                          53%             (A; N; I; R; E; G)

They begin at 37% rise to a peak at 11% before declining down to 1%.
The shared [A-N-I-R] subgroup indicates they eventually develop Rings.
