[Moeller] he said in romania are tartars as a group of its own
, turks as a group of its own, shekels as a group of its own
when the hungarian want let them be so:-)
No joke, the shekelrs mean they are not hungaryans , the
hungaryan means they are, but this is not a trouble, just a
point of view.
Somehow these people must got there. When did the tartar
invasion have been?1212 AC? wow, they did not romanized at
all? I do not belive it:-))))))))))
None of these people identifies themself as cuman, pechengs or
avars ( some people suppose the shekelers are the old avars) .
So far I know they identify them with actually folks which are
alive and not dead folks. But I cann grab about if you like.
