as Tyrrhenians. The Lydians, or Meons, were a disappeared people who spoke the Lydian language of the Luwian subgroup of the Anatolian group (or branch) of Indo-European languages. They were called Lydians by the Assyrians and Greeks, and the self-name was “meons”, another the self-name was “sfardeny”. Arrian called them Sfardens, or more likely, Shardens in his book about Alexander the Great. According to Xanthus of Lydia, the first king of the Meons was Atius, who had two sons: Lid and Torreb. They were divided into Lydians and Torrebians. The Lydians were excellent horsemen, and only military cunning allowed the dogs to defeat the Lydian horsemen in battle. They are referred to as residents of Lemnos and Crete, and Troas. One of the four main regions of Thessaly in historical time was called Pelasgiotida (Strabo. Geography IX 5, 3 (p. 430). The Pelasgic plains stretched from Fer to Magnesia. By the way, the dynasty of Epirus was always associated with Troy through the marriage of Achilles’ son Neoptolemus with Andromache And in the family of the Epirus kings and kings of Macedonia, the name ALEXANDER was used, which was not used in the rest of Hellas, except Thessaly.

      Thus, the Pelasgians are associated in many respects with Troy, and therefore with Asia Minor.

      The Venets, the Etruscans’ neighbors in Italy, also came from Asia Minor, and they are mentioned by Quintus Curtius Rufus living there in the book about Alexander the Great.

      Roman writer Justin, processing the “World History” of Pompey Trogus, 1st century. BC, wrote:

      “After all, the Tusa peoples (populi), who own the coast of the Lower Sea, came from Lydia, and the Veneti, whom we now see living near the shores of the Upper Sea, were brought here by their leader Antenor, when Troy was taken and conquered.” Justin, XX.1.7—8.

      That is, Justin confirms the arrival of the Veneti from Asia Minor, and as you can see, the writing of the Veneti and Etruscans was identical. By tus he means the Etruscans; the Romans called the Etruscans tus. Tusci. The Etruscans expelled the ancestors of the Germans, actually the Tus, from Italy. In Rome, Etruscans were considered natural-born sorcerers and the cult was organized according to the Etruscan rite. Even the word CEREMONY has Etruscan roots, from the famous lukomons from CERE, the city of Etruria.

      The connection between the Etruscan language and the Italic dialects, in particular with the Sabine and Latin, is very interesting. There are many Latin and Sabine words of a clearly Etruscan character. Etruscan origin Roman male names in a: Sulla, Cinna, Catilina, Perperna (Etruscan name Porsenna). A connection can be made between Etruscan personal names and some of the names and terms of early Rome. The names of the three old Roman tribes – Ramna, Titia and Lucera (Ramnes, Tities, Luceres) correspond to the Etruscan generic names rumulna, titie, lucher. The names “Rome” (Roma) and “Romulus” (Romulus) find a close analogy in the Etruscan rumate, the Etruscan-Latin Ramennius, Ramnius, etc.

      And here the name Atiy, which is repeatedly found among the Indo-European Scythians in the form of Atey, and among the Romans Attius (the ancient Roman poet Lucius Akcius). During the historical period, the Lydians lived in the area of Lydia in western Anatolia. R. Beekes believed that during the Trojan War, the Lydians, known by Homer as the Meons, lived much further north, in the north-west of Anatolia, in the Masa region, the localization of which is still the subject of controversy. The self-name of the Etruscans was – Rasenna, Raśna. As you can see, among the Sardis, the toponym with the root RUS was not at all exceptional. Here we have both Ruscino and Rassenna. And the main thing is that this is not accidental, but in the general cultural and national context, because we see two parts of one people, the Sardis. In Serbia, there is the city of Ras, old Ras and Raska. And in Moesia there was also a city of Sardis, or Serdika. So the language of the Etruscans should be close to Lydian, the language of the Ruscino Sardons and the Venetians of the Adriatic, and practically the same language was spoken in the vast space from southern Gaul to Asia Minor. Sardis (in Lydian Sfarda, ancient Persian Sparda, ancient Greek αἱ Σάρδεις, in Ionic dialect Σάρδιες, short Greek Σάρδῑς), one of the great cities of the ancient world, best known as the capital of Lydia. It was located in Asia Minor on the gold-bearing river Paktol, at the foot of Mount Tmol, from where the entire valley of the Germ River opens. The common name for the Lydians was SARDA. SARDES reached not only Italy, but also settled in modern Roussillon. The self-name of the Lydians, according to Arrian, was precisely SFARDS (probably shards, because there are no hissing in Greek)

      That is, we see the migration of the Chardin Sardines to Gaul, Sardinia and Northern Italy. And, interestingly, some of these peoples used a similar name – Ras-Rus. In Sanskrit, this word means “best”. The common name for the Lydians was SARDA. SARDES reached not only Italy, but also settled in modern Roussillon. The ancient inhabitants of Roussillon were the Sardons; their main city was called Ruscino. Place names with the root Ras were also used by the Etruscans in the names of cities. Procopius of Kessarii mentions the city of Rusciana near Croton.

      Vends

      Venets-Wends-Wends, according to Olaf Dalin, formerly called Huns

      The earliest mention of the Vends is in Homer. called the Aeneians or Aeneans, and their lord, the king of the city of Cephas in Thessaly is called Hunei, and here we see the Huns-Huns of antiquity.

      But from Kifa Guney with twenty and two ships

      He sailed, leading the Aenians and the warlike, strong Perrebians,

      A tribe of men who settled around Dodona cold,

      The lands of those who plowed, on whom the merry Titaresus makes noise,

      Quickly in Penei rushing magnificently rolling waters,

      Which he does not merge anywhere with the Penei of silver,

      Homer. Iliad II 748

      That is, Homer indicates where the Huns-Gants lived in a time close to him – in Thessaly, where it was possible to engage in horse breeding, and the Eneta-Venets are immediately mentioned, and next to the Huns, which will be important in the future.

      And they, as part of the Huns-Hans, came to Asia Minor and Hellas at the beginning of the 2nd millennium BC.

      The earliest news of the Roman writers about the Wends date back to the end of the 1st-2nd centuries. n. e. and belong to the Roman writers – Pliny the Elder, Publius Cornelius Tacitus and Ptolemy Claudius, although Herodotus apparently mentioned the Wends in the 5th century. BC BC, when he wrote that amber was brought from the Eridani River from the Enets (Venets), Quintus Curtius Rufus also wrote about them in his book about the campaign of Alexander the Great, and says that they lived in Asia Minor..

      According to Pliny (I century, the Wends lived on the southeastern coast of the Baltic Sea east of Vistula. Pliny the Elder and Pomponius Mela tell the story of the proconsul of Gaul Quintus Metellus Celer about how a storm nailed a ship with merchants of the Wind people (Venets) to the northern coast of Germany. For half a century, Tacitus places the Wends in the area between the Vistula River (Vistula) and the Aestia (Zsty). Tacitus hesitated in his judgment: whether to classify them as Germans or Sarmatians. Based on the fact that they “put houses”, “use shields” and “willingly move on foot”, he nevertheless considered them different from the Sarmatians,’ who live in a cart and on horseback. ‘On the Peitinger map, edited from the 1st century AD to the 5th century AD, the Wends are localized in two places, the first time (as Venadi) from the north of the Carpathians, the second (as Venedi) in the lower reaches of the Danube (in the region of the Ipotesti-Kindesh culture).

      The Gothic historian Jordan, in his story “On the origin and deeds of the Getae (Getik)” (551), described the places of residence of the Veneti

      “… At their left slope [the Carpathians], descending to the north, starting from the birthplace of the Vistula River, a populous tribe of Venets is located in immense spaces. Although their names now change according to different clans and localities, they are still predominantly called Sklavens and Antes. Sklavens live from the city of Novietaunai Lake, called Mursian Lake, to Dunastr [Dniester],
