Proto-Indo-European language

Proto-Indo-European is a reconstructed language that gave birth to the Romance languages, the Germanic languages, the Slavic languages, the Indic languages, and many others. In Dominion the angels developed a language that they used on Earth amongst themselves as as not to be understood by humans. I theorized that it would've been created around the time of Proto-Indo-European, and likely in an area where many descendants of Proto-Afro-Asiatic were spoken. Consequently, the angels' language, Lishepus, derives all its vocabulary from either PAA or PIE—or a blend of the two. It's kind of a mess, but it worked well enough.
I also used PIE for Verbis Diabolo in Penny Dreadful, but the less said about that the better.
