(still thinking and searching)

Hey 23432 would it one of the Phoenician languages. Canaan, Aramaic, Phoenicia or Latin.

Hmmm , neither semitic nor indo-european I am afraid Danwild6 .

To welcome you to my thread , I should say that re-location of defeated tribes was a customary practice for the winners .

Often , people who have been exiled would remember the event via songs .


The language she sung never belong to any ancient kingdom , it was older then latin & ancient greek .




Unfortunately this language to my knowledge is now extinct .

I think you are a natural detective but you have overlooked few of the evidence I have provided .

Yes she SPOKE Kabardian/Kabartey language .

But still , she sung to me in another equally ancient & justified language .

What was it ?

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.

Nice to hear from you again khunmoon , Freakland sound interesting .



I am currently enjoying a Danish Pastry , mmmm , mmm .

Excellent taste .

Tell me the unpronounceable , I may have a go at it .

I feel i owe you .

Anyways, I have a few hours left at work.

Kartushu was a language of the Valleys and Plains , not the mountains .

I'm coming up with many dialects now.....Kuvakan (Bashkir) popped up a few times as an ancient language spoken in the mountains.

This is a tough one. Everytime I find a language that I think is the answer.....it turns up being of Anatolian Orgin, or still spoken, etc...

Good luck to you too

I'm just gonna throw this one out there...

Atlantean

maybe it's a trick question?

Isaurian, spoken in the Taurus Mountains

Kimmerian and Kommagene .

yes , I am related to both but my grandma was not singing in either of those languages . I think they have both become extinct 2 millenia ago btw .

Are you related to Tudhaliya IV by any chance? Any "royality" in your blood?

Thanks,

Sporty
