Thracians

>Herodotus
Ancient scribes said a lot of things. Most things said concerning numbers was prolly bullshit

>>2615780
For whatever reason, romans actively surpressed and assimilated them

>>2615780
They lost and should be forgotten

>>2615780
Because they never centralized, they were divided and fought each other. They were great warriors but shit soldiers, they lost most battles they fought against the greco-roman beta manlets, thus ending thracian chad supremacy.

>>2615829
Yeah but still its fascinating how can a language can disappear like that without a trace.

>>2615837
unconstrained immigration

what is the differance between thracians and phonecians

>>2615880
Are you literally retarded???

>>2615880
"thracian" starts with t

>>2615872
Roman language is still present in Macedonia despite romans being long fucking gone and this land had a numerous population changes. I mean Illyrians, Goths, Avars, Slavs, Bulgarians, Ottomans you name it.

>>2615837
Was that ending meant to be a bad pun.

I swear to God.

>>2615837
AFAIK they never wrote it down, then they got assimilated partly by the Greeks and completely by the Romans and then Slavs. So its not really a mystery.

You mean Aromani? Forgot the Cumans and Magyars.

How close were they to the Greeks? Did the worship Zeus? Did they have drama? Did they know the Iliad?

>>2616165

Did slavs encounter any thracians when the zerg rushed the Byzantine empire?

Thracians lived in modern Bulgaria, Phoenecians lived in modern Lebanon.

They were already getting Hellenized after Alexander the Great. They probably just started speaking Greek and marrying Greeks to the point where there wasn't any distinction between them.
