****GK: Most Milograd ended by the 3rd c. BCE (fodder
for Zarubyntsi). The Wikipedia article is misleading
as to the "end date" since only insignificant
scattered settlements of Milograd survived for a few
centuries in the Belarus woods (hardly Slavic yet).
It's been a long time since I've read something as
irrelevant to anything as the Torsten lines penned
above...I guess you've definitively shot your bolt,
and have decided to return to your Odin mantra.
Nothing else really matters does it? Take a tip from
Rick and study the history of the Bosporan Kingdom.
Its ruling dynasts (from the time of Tiberius) all
bore the name "Iulius Tiberius" to honour their
sovereign patrons... And we know the identity of the
Don tribes of that time. No room for Odin here. But
we've been through this before.You just won't quit
will you? There's no dead horse left to flog, so
you're whipping the bones and the dust, and I can see
that you will be whipping them forever, no matter
what.*****
