Re: Getai Questions
Well yep, there's the Liber Linteus and the like, but there's also more Etruscan than pre-proto-Germanic...
Has a more-than-tenuous link been traced towards Indo-Iranian? That might shed a light on things. Otherwise it would be nice to see an effort in this direction!
Re: Getai Questions

There was a thread about languages and Elmiaticos has written some very informative posts about Getic/Thracian and Lusotanian and the troubles in reconstructing them.
