welll, sorry for saying smirtis instead of mirtis and "virsa" instead of
"vyras".
As for Zakas (jakas), it should mean sack, back .

My list about these toponyms was compiled in 1898. It seems they are not
only in Lithuania but in Oriental Prusia, Samogetien and Curlandien

for sure not "lentus"; but it ought to see that the Latin "lentus" and
Lithuanian "lete-" should be one and the same stuff, namely "slow";

That you rememered me about. Are these "Lets" mentioned by 297 the
actual Lets and Lithuanians?
Eumenii Panegyricus Constantino Cesari dictus, c.21:
"tuo, Maximiane Auguste nutu, Nerviorum et Treverorum arva iacentia
Laetus postliminio restitutus .... excoluit"

It should be meant about the some lands which the lets got back in the
teritorium of Nervins and Tervins.
(Theses Tervins, should be the Tervins of Thorsten sicne the action
which is storied by Eumenii Pan. should happen in the teritorium of
Germania ).
