Re: Getae were not Goths: linguistic evidence

Marian,
you might appreciate Alan's answer,
unfortunatly for Alan there are documents from the early days showing
the Getae in your country to be Goths. Language are definitely Gothic
from before the Goths officially arrived in the region and up to
1400's.
That's one of the major problems with your hypothesis.
There are a lot of historians who doesn't support your assumption,
that might be up for discussion of course, but what's even more
important is that there are Sophists in Greece an Arabic Historians
writing about the people living in the regions, which they visited
themselves contradicting every single assumption of a misunderstanding
by the historians.
Make no mistake about this:The so called Getae north of Black Sea
were Goths the group living in Asia Minor is an other question, both
linguistic and elsewhat.

Inger, you are just repeating yourself and you still not present one single piece of evidence, not one quote.

Here are the most important of your "arguments"
in Marian Ionescu's threads "Getae in Strabon",
"Lost books of Diodorus?", "Getae were not Goths:
linguistic evidence" and "Confused Getae, Goths
and others",

¤ "a 1640 map" ¤ "a good German" ¤ "a Greek scholar
" ¤ "a monestry" ¤ "a scholar friend" ¤ "a teacher"
¤"agricultural customs" ¤ "an old gentleman"
¤ "Ancient Historians" ¤ "approximate 200 files"
¤ "Arabic Historians" ¤ "artifacts" ¤ "biologists"
¤ "books in boxes " ¤ "Building pattern" ¤ "the
Conference" ¤ "Dio Chrysostomus" ¤ "Diodorus"
¤ "documents" ¤ "farming systemchanges" ¤ "my
father or his now since long collegues" ¤ "German
and Greek editions" ¤ "gold necklaces" ¤ "historians"
¤ "Iraqian archaeologist" ¤ "Klibblim" ¤ "many" ¤ "my
earliest notes" ¤ "my pet-discussion subjects"
¤ "Nordgren" ¤ "notes made by many" ¤ "odd locations"
¤ "One of the leaders" ¤ "other documentation"
¤ "Prof. K in NY" ¤ "scholars interpretation" ¤ "seaore"
¤ "seven legs to stand on" ¤ "some" ¤ "Sophist's books"
¤ "Sophists and Ablabius" ¤ "the 'a'-sound infront of
konsonants" ¤ "the Armenian Chronicle" ¤ "The book
¤ "the Rökstones" ¤ "the texts" ¤ "three books" ¤ "three
Professors" ¤ "waterway" ¤ "weeds"

Again: not one quote.  And your floral "evidence"
turned out to be nonsense, and Marian  proved
that your Diodorus references are fundamentally
wrong and that you are not even able to read
foreign booktitles right.

You bluffed and you have lost the game Inger.
Marian has no problems with her hypothesis.
You are the one with a problem, because you,
as the 'Great Swedish Scholar', are no match
for a Romanian student. A student Inger!
