Ivan Duridanov: "The comparative studies with the Baltic
languages were very helpful in the case of some unclear personal and
geographical Thracian names and provided new insights into the
Thracian vocabulary. It turned out that the Thracian language is in
close genetic links with the Baltic languages [For more details see
