Yetos, why are you to rewrite history like that against overwhelming evidence, especially, why do you to paint huge events that occured effectively in proto-historic times and that are effectively in violation with all available archaeological, linguistic and even written historic evidence?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nordic_Bronze_Age
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pre-Roman_Iron_Age
Furthermore, I would like to reiterate that Goths and Getae are
not the same, because the difference between "o" and "e" is crucial, hinting to completely different roots. Also, the Goths are refered to by Tacitus as
Gotones. Furthermore, Pliny cites Pytheas of Massilia (4th century BC) and refers to the
Gutones living at the shore of the (presumably Baltic) sea:
(Pliny, 37.11) "Pytheas says that the
Gutones, a people of
Germany, inhabit the shores of an æstuary of the Ocean called Mentonomon, their territory extending a distance of six thousand stadia; that, at one day's sail from this territory, is the Isle of Abalus, upon the shores of which, amber is thrown up by the waves in spring, it being an excretion of the sea in a concrete form; as, also, that the inhabitants use this amber by way of fuel, and sell it to their neighbours, the
Teutones."
exactly, and where this amber was more stockpile? i Baltic lands or in Gutland?
History is written according the evidence data that exists or summed by author,
many times History of ancient is rewriten since we find a new relic-kterisma or a text etc,
just consider that the late Archimedes book that is found maybe change even philosophy's History,
some authors hide data, some have less data, and some just rewrite,
the scenario I propose is not rewriting History, neither goes against data,
about the case of o Goth and e Getae is not that rare but i say enough common
besides only the case that goat is Dacian get and scandinavia Got then you see that even the same animal name can change the e to o or opposite,
About that I am rewriting History,
well you might be true, but history many times has been written again in modern times,
and since you already know the lack of Historical texts can create many,
no matter you oppose the scenario i wrote above, you know that is difficult to reject it,
my scenario starts with Getae= goth and both were from a pre Slavic-Germanic split,
your only arquement is that Getae= not Goth,
even the one Pytheas is writing might be after the time that Dacians moved to Scandinavia.
almost same time with Herodotus,
I wonder if Thracians were IE and R1a were all that R1a went?
also is there any I HG conection among Black sea and Scandinavia, especially Sweden?
And to Continue the rewrite of History,
Lets see the Greek the Latin and Sansqrit
Deus Διος Deva (Dewa?)
as you see at Greek goes e->ι γιοτ ορ ιωτ
lets see the Norse and Germanic
1) Ziu hmm might be in Greek Za compare Zalmoxis?
2) Teiva or Teiwa?
3) Gothic
Teiws
Now let us compare it with no Dacian Za-lmoxis (Ziu-lmoxis) but Thracian known forms the Brygian
4) Brygian (thracian)
TIOS
and Greco-Vrygian Θεος in neutral person Θειοv
as you see
Gothic is similar to Greco-Brygian especially
Brygian,
that makes either Brygians Germanic tribe either Goths a Thracian tribe, the Getae.
on the other hand we also know the Brygian deity Βακχος Bacchus the only comparing similarity is the Slavic Bog.
The
Thor case
well only a compare with south Thracian and Gaulish
Gaulish Tanaros and taranuo
Thracian θουρδος Thiur-dos
now about the Links from wiki,
simply compare the time of Bronze and iron age
it is possible that Thracian-getae who knew the bronze and iron at least 1000 years before to move to Scandinavia, with easy pass and small battles, while it is was much difficult to enter Roman territories
while Scans should wait for Christianity (no one wants to fight-become soldier) and weakness of Rome to enter Thrace,
in fact considering the weather climate the most suitable era was at 2000 BC and later at 450 BC since at 750-500 Bc had killing climate,
the one that drove Lappi to black sea, the reign-deers that Herodotus describes as tarandos
the Getae even in some religious names are connected with Goths,
moden Germany was inhabited by people
But IE Germans pass from Black to sea and Balkans to settled in today Germany-Gutland
we do not have a Parthenogenesis of Germanic IE
especially in Gutland where we know that saami were first and older inhabitants of region,
Zalmoxis
hmm as you said Grims law gives Helmet
but what about an analysis
Ζα
με αχις (αξις οξυς ακις) Ζα με οξυς
Ziu mit Axis
Zeus with Axe
