How yes no
you said something about Hyperboreans
do you know who are they?
well, let me repeat... and add few new thoughts...
perhaps Baltic people...
Lithuanian and Letonian (Latvian) could be tribal names derived from Leto (Leto is linked to Hyperboreans and wolves)...
Borea is still in Thrace....
Hyperborea is north of Borea...
so, it could be Dacians....
Hyperboreans-Dacians-Balts would explain wolf connection, Leto connection, and also why Dagne identifies with Dacian language...
this also fits into my mapping of Venti (anemoi) wind gods to different Slavic people... as Borea is north most Venti (and would map to Borussia, while east wind Eurus would map to Russians, west wind Zephyrus to Serbs, and his son Carpus to Croats)...note that Slavs were called Wends (= winds) (Sorbs in Germany are still called Wends), and that there is Jordanes who marks early Slavs as belonging to populous race of Veneti... Zephyrus is born in caves of Thrace..
Zorya - Slavic deity (meaning dawn),
who might be origin of name Zeruiani (used for early Slavs by bavarian manuscript) and Serians (essentially same tribal name as Zeruiani; taking into account the record of Seneca explains well why Zeruiani are mentioned in Bavarian manuscript as having so big state that all Slavs come from it),
lives in house with sun, north, west and east wind... note that south wind is not mentioned, and south wind of Anemoi (Notus) is the one I cannot map to Slavic tribes...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anemoi
btw. if I am not wrong, sun is related to ancient Macedonians (R1a dominant)...
Zorya might even be about Greeks, that is about hellenic people....
Zorya (=Zeruiani) lives in house (=state) with sun (ancient Macedonians), and winds (= Thracians/Veneti, north = Borussia => Borea, west = Serbia => Zephyrus, east = Russia (Eurus) and there are Croats represented by Carpus - son of Zephyrus)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zorya
is there any relation of Greece with star, dawn, northern star in particular?
In Serbia, Zorya - morning star is "zvezda Danica" - star Danica, which does sound as alternative name of Greeks - Danajci (in Serbian) - Danaans
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danai
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danaans
Danai could be origin of word Danube as well
Zorya is tripple godess.... that is because of 3 tribes or 3 historic periods in making Greeks/Hellenes...
morning star (= earliest period) - "zvezda Danica" = Danaans = Acheans...
in fact from greek tribes perhaps Zoryans = Dorians in particular...
can you map this text about husband of morning star godess to Danaans and other Greece tribes/periods?
Conflicting accounts exist of her marital situation. In some myths, she is described as the wife of Perun and would accompany her husband into battle. In this role she was known to protect those warriors she favoured against death by letting down her veil. In other accounts, both she and Zorya Vechernyaya were the wives of the male Myesyats, the moon god, and by him bore all of the stars.[3] However, some have all three Zorya as virgin goddesses, while describing Myesyats as an unrelated female moon goddess.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zorya
Perun is same deity as Teshub of Asia minor... and Thor of Germanic people, Taranis of Celtic, Perkunas of Baltic... it is primary god of Indo-Europeans...
so, according to this interpretation of Slavic mythology, we have Greeks initially in marriage relation (= allies) with Indo-European people... this also makes sense from genetic point of view, as Greek tribes have different key haplogroups compared to other IE people...
later, if we see this interpretation as Slavic version of world, Greeks are mapped to be considered allied with and under domination of Moesians..
Myesyats - moon god could map to Moesia, which is where Scordisci/Serdi and Triballi (used by some Byzantine authors interchangeable with Serbs) lived...
word Myesyatc = mesec(serbian) / Měsíc (Czech) / mesac(russian)/ mjesec (croatian) / miesiąc (polish)
= moon
thus Moesia = land of the moon, crescent...
moon or crescent is in coat of arms of Serbs
word Srb might origin from Slavic "srp" = crescent, sicle
moon in Mongolian = sar
sart people = people under flag of moon
note also Cimmerians settle in Cappadocia, Strabo records both Cappadocian tribes are white Syrians (=Serians), Serb come to Balkan as white Serbs, and in Asia parts of Serians country we have white Sart people (Tajiks, Uzbeks and Chinese nation of non-Chinese origin)
hm, if Serians is related to Danaans/Dorians/Hellenic people, Serbs would be stg. like white (=west) Dorians?
note that Siraces (who are thought to be same as Serboi) are most hellenized of all sarmatians...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siraces
Dorians/Zoryani/Zeruiani could be same as Aryans which when mapped to Greeks fit into my estimate that Aryans must have been J2 people....

can you map this to Greece
The Morning Star is Zorya Utrennyaya (from Russian utro, meaning "morning"; also known as Zvezda Danica, Zvezda Dennitsa, Zwezda Dnieca, Zvezda Zornitsa, Gwiazda Poranna, Rannia Zoria, Zornica, Zornička), who opens the gates of Dažbog's palace each morning so that the Sun may begin his journey.[3] She is depicted as a warrior goddess, fully-armed and courageous, and was invoked to protect against death in battle with the prayer "Defend me, O maiden, with your veil from the enemy, from the arquebus and arrow..."[citation needed] She is a patroness of horses, protection, exorcism, and the planet Venus, and Slavs would pray to her each morning as the sun rose.[4] In some tales, she sits under the World Tree on the fiery-stone Alatuir, from which run the four rivers of the Otherworld, and under her seat flows the river of healing.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zorya
Zorya that opens the doors of the palace so that sun can start its journey could be about Greek prehistory opening the doors for the conquest of Alexander Macedonian... or about some earlier conquest... in fact mythology suggests that it is repeating pattern of conquest towards east... and Alexander Macedonian biographers speak of earlier conquests of hellenic people (should be checked I read it on net some time ago)
fiery stone must be volcano mountain... or about gold
Alatuir sounds as Altai Mountains, Altai = al (gold) + tau (mountain)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Altai_Mountains
so, Danaans might have arrived to Europe from Altai mountains...
other world would be Siberia, China and Mongolia....
4 rivers...well ...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ob_River
Danaans might be about J2 people - note J2 island just south of Altai area - or in fact J2 from Caspian sea to northwest China - exactly in area south from where 4 rivers above start...
they would be Serians/Zeruiani/Aryans
look how good J2 maps to archeological sites of Indo-Aryans
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indo-Aryan_migration
Zorya (representing J2 proto-Greeks or Serians) in marriage with (=allied to) Perun (east or I2a2 branch of I2 Indo-Europeans)....the marriage of J2 and I2a2 people would in fact be about alliance of proto-Greeks and east branch of Indo-Europeans (Cimmerians)...
so J2 would be original Serians/Aryans = Danaans/Acheans
while I2 would be Cimmerians who were in my opinion original Indo-Europeans....with its branches giving variants of IE (I2b - Germanic, I2a1- Italic and I2a2- slavic)... this also explains otherwise weird Serb saying "speak Serbian so that the whole world understands you", that is in fact about "speak Cimmerian (indo-european) so that the whole world understands you" - of course, the whole world doesnot include the other worlds- e.g. east of Altai mountains
I2a2 would be originally cimmerians, but later white Serians / white syrians (as in cappadocia Cimmerians are later called white-syrians and there is I2a2 island in Kurds of today) / white sarts (Uzbeks/ Tajiks/ northwest China)/ Pasthun Sarbans/ white-Serbs (from whom modern Serbs origin)
parent I2 being Cimmerians (Cimmerians = white-Syrians) and I2b reason why Germans are named after Gomer (Gomer = cimmerian)...
I2a in Greece might not be only Slavic, but also from Danaans...
because I2a maps well to lands of Serians and I2a is large in some parts of Greece that were never settled by Slavs... in the core of Danaans (proto-Greeks - Serians) must have been I2a or so called white Serians...
in fact, if you look at haplogroups I and J2, you can notice that arc of Serians from China to India has outer part - J2 and inner part -I2..
if J2 was originally on location of Aryans, than arc of I2 would be west of it...
thus J2 = Aryans/Serians, and I2 west (=white) Serians...
once I2 and J2 made coalition, J2 has spread in outer arc of I2..
this J2/I2 coalition might have reemerged later as sea peoples....
R1a would be IE Scythians and Sarmatians
R1b would be iranian Medes /Madai and have also contributed to the arc of Serians...
whether R1a was among Serians is hard to tell, but my guess is that most of it in the area is due to Indo-Scythians
what do you think?
