Re: Whence Grimm?

I should add that there was immigration from the Przework group into
Northern Jutland in last part of the second century BCE, judging from
pottery found there (Kraghede). In other words, they must have been
represented also among the Cimbri (and Teutones), during their
expansion.

Some Cimbri stayed behind in the city of Aduatuci, now Tongern,
Belgium, which later name is derived from the name of the Tungri.
This might explain Tacitus remark that the people they first called
Germani now were called Tungri (which name I derive from a similar-
sounding name of German province, where the Przeworsk people first
colonised Jastorf peoples), whereas the name Germani later was
transferred to larger groups. In other words, the Romans first met
the Przeworsk/Jastorf mixed culture in the Cimbri, and later in the
remoter regions of Germany (Suebi, Hermunduri, Marcomanni), the
latter peoples spreading into the area immidiately east of the Rhine,
making that "Germanic" too.
