Forget it. Pompilius is Master Vincent's late and pompatic attempt at
Latinising the Slavic name Popiel of earlier tradition as recorded by
the Anonymous Gaul (cf. Krak, the legendary founder of Kraków
> "Gracchus"). The word *popeljI can be etymologised in Slavic
without the help of Puplu or Fufluns.
