Book The Baltic Origins of Homer s Epic Tales

Download or read book The Baltic Origins of Homer s Epic Tales written by Felice Vinci and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2005-12-20 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Compelling evidence that the events of Homer's Iliad and Odyssey took place in the Baltic and not the Mediterranean • Reveals how a climate change forced the migration of a people and their myth to ancient Greece • Identifies the true geographic sites of Troy and Ithaca in the Baltic Sea and Calypso's Isle in the North Atlantic Ocean For years scholars have debated the incongruities in Homer's Iliad and Odyssey, given that his descriptions are at odds with the geography of the areas he purportedly describes. Inspired by Plutarch's remark that Calypso's Isle was only five days sailing from Britain, Felice Vinci convincingly argues that Homer's epic tales originated not in the Mediterranean, but in the northern Baltic Sea. Using meticulous geographical analysis, Vinci shows that many Homeric places, such as Troy and Ithaca, can still be identified in the geographic landscape of the Baltic. He explains how the dense, foggy weather described by Ulysses befits northern not Mediterranean climes, and how battles lasting through the night would easily have been possible in the long days of the Baltic summer. Vinci's meteorological analysis reveals how a decline of the "climatic optimum" caused the blond seafarers to migrate south to warmer climates, where they rebuilt their original world in the Mediterranean. Through many generations the memory of the heroic age and the feats performed by their ancestors in their lost homeland was preserved and handed down to the following ages, only later to be codified by Homer in the Iliad and the Odyssey. Felice Vinci offers a key to open many doors that allow us to consider the age-old question of the Indo-European diaspora and the origin of the Greek civilization from a new perspective.

Book The Circassian Allies of Troy

Download or read book The Circassian Allies of Troy written by Selçuk Bağlar and published by SELÇUK BAĞLAR. This book was released on 2023-04-09 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PROLOGUE This book is based on Homer’s books Iliad and Odyssey. While Iliad describes the war of the peoples of Achaea and Troia, Odyssey tells the journey of king Ulysseus, who participated in the Trojan war, to the Caucasus, the homeland of his ancestors, and to the Land of the Dead there. This work is divided into two parts. The first chapter discusses the main tribes that supported the Trojan king Priam and their historical relations with the Caucasus. Here the attention was focused on the Thracians, Thraco-Phrygians, Pelasgians, Celts, Mysians, Libyans, Lydians, Carians, and other related tribes who supported the king of Troy, Priam. In the second chapter Homer’s Odyssey is studied. In this book, Homer described the journey of the king of Argos, Ulysseus (Odysseus), who returned to his homeland after the Trojan War. Although it is generally believed that Ulysseus made this voyage in the Mediterranean basin, in our opinion, this voyage took place in the Black Sea basin. I am deeply indebted to Dr. Nilgün Elam for a rigorous pre-reading and editing the Turkish version as well as its English version of this book. She also dedicated her time to checking the quotations from the ancient Greek texts and controlling the related terminology. I am extremely grateful to Mr. Mehmet Gönen for translating the Turkish text into English. I would like to express my deepest gratitude to Mr. Hakan Candemir for the technical support in the preparation of the e-book. I would like to extend my sincere thanks to Mr. Enes Özkan for dedicating his technical skills to the design of the cover of the book. I wish you a good reading … (Balkar) Selçuk Bağlar March 2023 Van/Turkey

Book Armies of the Thracians   Dacians  500 BC   AD 150

Download or read book Armies of the Thracians Dacians 500 BC AD 150 written by Gabriele Esposito and published by Pen and Sword Military. This book was released on 2021-06-30 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A history of these warring armies who dominated the ancient world, with eighty detailed photos and illustrations of equipment. The Thracians, mentioned as early as the eighth century BC in Homer’s Iliad, were fundamental in the evolution of Greek military systems across the ages. They fought in the Persian Wars, were part of Alexander the Great’s army, were used as mercenaries in many Hellenistic armies, and resisted Roman conquest for a long time. In addition, they used some iconic weapons and had a distinctive panoply. The Dacians were a mix of different cultures and were extremely influenced by some steppe peoples, such as the Sarmatians. They had a lot in common with the Thracians, but had a different history. They formed one of the largest and most powerful kingdoms of antiquity, a sort of superpower that dominated over the Balkans. Their wars against Trajan and the Roman Army were absolutely epic, the last campaigns of conquest in the history of the Western Roman Empire. This book about the Thracians and Dacians features a rich collection of photos specifically created for it by reenactors.

Book Thracian Language and Greek and Thracian Epigraphy

Download or read book Thracian Language and Greek and Thracian Epigraphy written by Peter A. Dimitrov and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2009-10-02 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before one embarks upon reading Thracian Language and Greek and Thracian Epigraphy, one should keep in mind that one should be facing an extremely complex situation.There is a methodological problem, originating in the past, which caused various misunderstandings. It is due to the volume of different entries assembled in the goal to compose a thesaurus of the Thracian language. Somehow, over the years during the last two centuries, there was a whole set of methods applied that were not in accordance to the progress made by linguistics. For example, the choice made in assembling the two main corpora so far, that of Tomaschek and Detschew, present data from literary and epigraphic sources. These data combined were not at all times convincing. Sometimes controversial entries were included whose interpretation provoked long discussions. More attention was paid to details, which in most of the cases were not concerned with the discussion of the whole body of evidence. There was one other issue: whilst modern linguistics made a huge progress, Thracian scholars stayed within the general Indo-European theory of the Neogrammarians. The method the author used rests on the description of Thracian onomastics obtained after phonological analysis, because he is concerned with the fact that every single phonologically attested form of phonemes and morphs is relevant. For, it helps to list all possible forms of names thus showing all of the graphemes independently.
