Linguistic Archaeology: A Cognative Bias Test

Conclusion: my cognative bias will probably be towards people with names and language originating in the A-R-O linguistic subgroup. For me they will be deemed unpleasant sounding.

A-R-O subgroup                Sex          %        Dev. Chain
Cognative test - villain names       80%     (A; R; O; E)
StarTrek Cardassians                     71%     (A; R; O; E; L; N)
• Tree                                         60%     (A; R; O; E; T)
Hungarian                           M          58%     (A; R; O; L; E)
• Wheel                                     51%     (A; R; O; L; K)

If we assume that auditory discrimination is genetic, then we can distinguish between neanderthal, human, denisovan by the sounds they would find unpleasant.
