Hello,
Here is my proposal of translation for Ezerovo ring inscription:
There is written on ring:
ROLISTENEASNERENEATILTEANESKOARAZEADOMEANTILEZUPTAMIEERAZELTA
I have separated words:
ROLISTENEAS NERENEA TILTEAN ES KOARA ZEADOM EANT ILEZ UP TAMI EERA
ZELTA
I have changed many EA into A:
ROLISTENAS NERENA TILTAN ES KOARA ZEADOM ANT ILEZ UP TAMI EERA ZELTA
Words NERENA TILTAN in Aukshtaitian dialect of Lithuanian language
means FROM NERENAS FAMILY. Word ES in Latvian language means I. Word
KURA in Latvian language means WHOSE. Word ZIEDAS in Lithuanian
language means RING. I know that Lithuanian language have lost one
case. I think that word ZIEDOM have this case. Word ANT in Lithuanian
language means ON. Word YLA in Lithuanian language means AWL. This
word in Old Lithuanian language ment FINGER. Word UP in Thracian
language means AND. Word TAMI in Zhemaitian language means IN IT.
Word YRA in Lithuanian language means IS. Word ZELTA in Latvian
language means GOLD (here this word is in genitive case form).
So, all sentence means:
I'M ROLISTENAS FROM NERENAS FAMILY, WHOSE RING IS ON THE FINGER AND
THERE IS GOLD IN IT.
So, I think, that Thracians were speaking a language close to
Proto-Baltic.
Photo of golden ring with Thracian inscription on it is on the
site, which address is this:
