News / "It's too late for Germany" (but not for Poland) [1798]

It's like everytime in history...people living through and in these times rarely grasp their greatness and importance...to overwhelmed with the daily little but oh so exhausting battles.

(Us hobby historians being the big exception of course:)

Genealogy / Slavs are descendants of Sarmatians? [600]

That's true of course in case of tribes that lived close to their but Romans didn't have much clue what was going on along the Vistula

That's the long believed misconception...coming from the same sources who said everything right of the Limes had been only swamps and huts.

Ptolemy used alot of sources for his atlas.

he drew on Roman traders' travel itineraries, analyzed seafarers' notes and consulted maps used by Roman legions operating to the north....

Like this:

a Roman knight traveled from Carnuntum, a legion camp near Vienna, to the Baltic Sea coast to trade in amber.

Or this:

...We were able to locate 11 settlements along the highway that started at Moers on the Rhine and reached as far as the Sambia peninsula

Or this:

....Researchers believe Ptolemy's map now allows them to trace the path followed by amber traders from the Vienna area up to Gdansk Bay as well....

And this:

...It was primarily surveyors with the Roman army, which appears to have advanced as far as the Vistula River, ....

The cracking of the "Ptolemy code" means a similiar change of tides in how the archaelogical world sees these lands now with new eyes as with the discovery of the Sky Disc of Nebra. The oldest depiction of the Cosmos ever found. Pointing to a high civilization in Central Europe where till shortly before historians believed to be nothing more than swamps and huts and dumb "barbarians".

Hmm...wiki says the "Spali" were more like a caste of royal Scythians......and that they ruled the Slavs...not that they were pre-Slavs.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spali

(A time machine would be nice...this far back history is fascinating)

the people living back then in modern day poland were aboriginal proto slavs

Was that before Ptolemy made the map of Germania (with germanic tribes living in modern day Poland) and the Sarmatians or later?

What i find strange is how the greeks, romans, etc and the poles pre 966 all put the god of lightning at the top of the gods they belived in

Not strange when you think that there could have existed one ur-religion....a way of thinking ALL native Europeans shared....Celts, Germanics, Slavs.
They gave them their own names in their own languages but the gods where the same, the rituals too...

Our real european heritage...not some from far away desert imported one-man show!

I wonder why not more people lamenting the doom of Europe today because of all these strangers and their religion are defending the real old ways of our ancestors but are still fans of this imported religion...an interesting contradiction. Because as I see it THAT would be one of the first things to shed and to return to our true roots!

....not to forget, the bigger the todays insecurities and smaller the self esteem the more glorious becomes a mythical, powerful past.

There is a reason why todays most passionate Sarmatian on this board is a Serb still suffering from the aftermath of the destruction of Yugoslavia.

Abit understanding and indulgence is appropriate, I think..

....the article I linked to speaks of Ptolemy using the notes, reports and diaries of Romans knowing these lands....soldiers of course but also civilian travellers and traders also politicians and other time witnesses.

The naming of the Sarmatians had to come from somewhere...Iranians on Germanias borders?

Romans somehow weren't that much interested what's was happening outside of their borderlands.

If they planned to take said borderland in as new province they were. They had to. For that there was a vested interest of the Roman Empire in Germania.

After all any military invasion needs to be carefully planned. As the success with Gaul/Gallia before showed. They planned to do the same to Germania.

The later resignation and retreat behind the Limes has alot to do with the land and it's people being to unruly (GO ARMINIUS!:)...but that doesn't mean they weren't concentrated on intel gathering and research for quite awhile...

results of the referendum in poviats

Always astounding....the split across the country...and between cities and the land. A split which happens similiar also in Germany and other countries.

Could you perhaps provide a link to the website where your map can be found?

I belongs to a museum I think, the images around the net are only photos of it. But the translation of the names made big waves in the archeological world...

World prefers Angela Merkel to Donald Trump: PEW study

But there is hope:

Asked if they would prefer the US or China as the leading power, respondents made the US the overwhelming choice.



Here the original survey:

Of course...they all were non-Romans....stemming from the greek βάρβαρος (bárbaros) meant "babbler" (as in non-Greek).

The negative meaning came much later...

It was the famous roman cartographer Ptolemy...with some translations of the town names for today...on the far right you can see the Sarmatians..

Hmm...6th century?

This roman map from the early 2nd century shows Sarmatia...and they came from the East (not nowhere)...



en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germania

A much closer look...

Yes... for now... but again look how many problems just 5% caused and two compare birth rates of muslims and sub saharans vs native Europeans

You read the news today too, didn't you? The one about no NGO ship left in the Med.

Europe is getting a handle on the illegals...it get's better, the govs are learning...Germany has tightened the screws and so have most other countries.

But what's worse is your basic belief that this can end only with one way. You have absolutely no trust in your folks...you really think that Brussels has the power to erase cultures and identities. You really belief that the muslim immigrants will take over Europe one day.

You seem to believe all Europeans stupid and/or brainwashed and weak and that only you and your followers are left to fight the fight...you couldn't be more wrong!

But I have to leave now...till tomorrow

...but still 95% white Europeans! :)

Most of them without any desire to become muslims or to lose their culture and identity!

If I were muslim in Europe I would actually fear for MY culture and identity...

Man Dirk, Germany has about 6% (6,1% in 2016) muslims overall (and barely any at all in the East)...and many of those who came as refugees during the last years will leave again...

In the whole of Europe the muslims make up not even 5% (4,9% in 2016) of the population. Meaning 95% of the Europeans are NOT Muslims!

We really have more pressing problems!!!

Europe IS already multi cultural, it always has been...it all started out with the Celts, the Germanics and the Slavs and kinda detoriated from that.

Already forgotten about our polish-german culture wars? We even have a self declared Sarmatian here on this board! :)

Good luck to make Europe "mono"! ;)
A worthy case to make Europe more "mono" would be the installment of a common lingua franca, but not even that can the EU achieve. The EU has, believe it or not 24 official and working languages!

It must be a bureaucratical nightmare...all the translators, all the papers in all languages...

ec.europa.eu/education/official-languages-eu-0_en

And it is like with all arguments and ideas, just because one says so it doesn't mean it can happen.
To use this "shifty eyed" (whatever that is) Jews wishful thinking is absolutely no reason to accuse the EU of wanting to erase polish (or anybody's) identity and culture...

PS: Did you hear about the Berliner Stadtschloß? An interesting story....once a jewel of prussian architecture smack in the middle of Berlin, the seat of kings, it was heavily destroyed during WWII.

As the victor politics decided did the territory the ruins stand in fell to the newly build East Germany with it's new capital East Berlin. The revenge thirsty communists hated all things prussian and decided to raze the rest of it to the ground and to build a socialist symbol in it's place, the "Palast der Republik".

That thing stood there till the wall came down and the GDR was thrown into the bin of history as Prussia has been before.

Fast forward a few years and the discovery of poisoneus asbestos in this Palast der Republik and it's subsequent destruction an initiative was founded to rebuild the old Stadtschloß in it's place again.

The whole country discussed it hotly, but this initiative gained so many followers and raised so many Euros that the wish of many came true...the old prussian Stadtschloß was to be rebuild in it's righteous place, proudly in the middle of Berlin.

Of course, it's not the original, but it's being rebuild with much love and passion. Next year it is being finished! :)

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berlin_Palace

So, whenever you say the EU leads only to a loss of culture and identity I dare you to take a good long look around....

The current European nations in the EU will be replaced through mass immigration of third worlders until a new race is achieved

The more logical evolutionary development would be that the third worlders all get in time as white as we Europeans have become. After all that was the way we developed...from dark brown Homo Sapiens to light Europeans.!

Imagine that...we get tons of new white Europeans...in a few decades or so...:)
