N. Densusianu was not a linguist and in his book "Dacia Preistorica"
there is no attempt for any linguistic study. There are simple
observations and comparations without any claim of demonstrating
something.

-are there any loans from Slavic where the Slavic words begin
with "c"(ts) and they are reflected as Hungarian "sz"?
