The first methodical procedural applications of reconstruction algorithm are considered, which were constantly perfected from the first principles of regularity of element change in a language establishment, to the renewed procedure of reconstruction methods based on morphology and phonological Proto-language system data, technique of complete formalization of reconstruction, the use of typological data of the last half of the twentieth century, to the modern suggestions of including ethymological codification of “cultural” vocabulary of Indo-European proto-language, analyzing Indo-European lexical items. The evolution of the basic methodological concept of classical Indo-European studies (linguistics comparative studies). Linguistic reconstruction, as the polyparadigmatic theoretical and methodic problem, is associated with interdisciplinary linguistic approach and conceptual world view, as the constituent architectonic model/matrix of philosophical discourse sense, and is presupposed by the dominant lines of general linguistic science development. If the purpose of reconstruction of the first half of the nineteenth century was in searching proto-language forms in comparative historical linguistics, then in the early twenty first century it is applied to the study of cognitive linguistics facilities, including various structures of consciousness, in particular concepts.
