Lusas Saudações, compatriota.

Creio que as teorias mais recentes nem sequer colocam os Lusitanos
entre os Celtiberos ( os quais seriam sobretudo Celtas em país
ibero,
e não necessariamente o resultado da mistura entre Celtas e Iberos)
mas no grupo meridional das linguas indo-europeias ocidentais,
próximo do Trácio, do Ilírio e do Helénico.


I think that according more recent theories the Lusitanians are not
even included amongst the Celtiberians(who, by the way, were,
according new studies, Celts in Iberia, not necessarily the result of
a mix between the Celts and the Iberians)they probably belonged to
the southern group of the western indo-european languages, close-
related to Thracian, Illyrian and Hellenic.

About the eight-armed wheel, what is the meaning of it within the
indo-european tradition?
