Comments

[edit]

I've reduced the contentious tone. Is there really nothing for the general reader in the Thebes tablets? I've made a <ref></ref> Notes section: can someone insert the citations? --Wetman 08:29, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]


di-wi-ja-me-ro

[edit]

at the Vienna symposium paragraph i saw: "that di-wi-ja-me-ro cannot equal 'the part for the goddess Diwia' but has to be 'two-day period'" being a native Greek speaker i noticed that di-wi-ja-me-ro sounds almost identical to the Greek "διήμερο" that means "two days" and sounds "di'imero" ("d" being a voiced dental plosive of course), and that's probably what Meier-Brügger had in mind.CuteHappyBrute (talk) 04:05, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

ku-na-ki-si

[edit]

I believe this has been shown not to be the word for 'women' but rather is a compound in which the first member means 'dog' (stem kun- in Classical Greek). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.73.31.50 (talk) 17:52, 9 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
