Hiyawa
[edit]whoah, the inscription also has Hiyawa=DNNYM. Is this something for the Achaians:Danaans debate? dab (𒁳) 12:56, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
- Could be, this is historical evidence after all. Care to explain exactly what that DNNYM is? — EliasAlucard|Talk 00:58 22 Aug, 2007 (UTC)
- how should I know? According to Rollinger, it is the Phoenician translation of Luwian Hiyawa. The -YM is the plural, I suppose ("the DNN-ians"). so we have hi-ya-wa=DaNaN. That's suggestively close to "Achaeans=Danaans". The upshot would be that Quwê was an early Greek colony. dab (𒁳) 12:21, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
- Well, tell that to Rollinger, I have no idea what that means :) — EliasAlucard|Talk 15:45 22 Aug, 2007 (UTC)
