Hej 23432,
Santorini was an island that (partly) sunk in the sea, but the Mycenian culture goes back way beyond 609BC, so that one it can't be.
So many names, some I've never heard before have been up now. I throw the towel! I've have mailed a friend in Denmark, expert in ancient Middle East but he's rather slow in replying.
Yes, that's my country, but I live in one I call Freakland. Like to go unnoticed, so I don't use its real name, though the despot is gone now, you don't know if he comes back. But "khun" is an adressing phrase, something between "Mister" and "Sir" in the local tongue, and moon is just a deviration of my given name. Which nobody but Danes can pronounce.
