*****GK: Michael, you're inundating us with posts
which indicate a very commendable thirst for
knowledge. Much of this has already been discussed on
the list, in great detail and depth. It's unfortunate
that the search engine doesn't work at the moment. My
advice is that you spend a day or two going over the
cybalist material starting from the beginning. It'll
be worth your while. You'll discover, for instance,
that the "Massagetae" issue has been very persuasively
treated by Piotr. They were not "Getae" at all, but
Saka (East Scythians).******
