[edit] Zvinbusas revisions

What exactly is the logic behind the statement that there were Balts living in Pomerania in 3rd millenium BC and that these were somehow related to Lithuanians? Halibutt 16:25, May 29, 2005 (UTC)

BTW, especially that the ancestors of modern Lithuanians arrived to where they live now ca. in 1st millenium AD, that is some 3000 to 4000 years later... Halibutt

We would all like to see the Zvinbudas sources for his so radical revisions of history. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus ^Talk 17:50, 29 May 2005 (UTC)

Baltic Pomerania

Since 3,000 BC Pomerania (Lithuanian Pamarė) was inhabited by Pomeranian Balts - Pamarė archeological culture. German tribes arrived to Pomerania from Scandinavia in aproximetly 8th century BC and mixed with Pomeranian Balts.

Unsourced and doubtful section moved here - a number of different archaeological cultures can be found in Pomerania between 3000 BC and 8th century BC (3000 BC is still neolithic, 8th century is early iron age). Ethnolingustic data from this period is scarce or nonexistent, therefore making such strong claims about ethnicity of a given population is simply uscientific. Could the author provide sources for "Pamarė archeological culture"?

Tnx for the note, but please register, so we can discuss it knowning who is who. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus ^Talk 09:52, 30 May 2005 (UTC)
