Is no Cymbrian export. Cited Bruteno is simply a distant stem cognate with overlapping meanings out of shared PIE and so the theory is fishy. As you can imagine a Cymbrian would try to impose his culture and I don't see it in Baltic fabric such foreign rule. Celtics began to leave traces in the Bronze Era already as trademen and so again the theory is bollocs.<br />These symbolic colors including black were common in whole northern Eurasia. Somehow Baltics picked those three. Baltic tribes split away from the Indo-European stem to live basically in a cultural enclave of Northern HG and IE husbadry cultures from Siberia to central Europe. <br />Local paraSemitic HGs had basically similar color language, if you like, only with black and white as major symbolic.<br />Obviously the climate was the reason for Baltics to stressing these aspects of seasonal colors of their tricolore.<br /><br />Adam Czajkahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06538045046059801834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8743102750721348863.post-43967576422757860832021-02-08T04:29:55.895-08:002021-02-08T04:29:55.895-08:00Hello,

Some of them establihed in the highlands. Proving that this tradition might have some historical root, there are some interesting toponyms in the region (where also bavarian immigrants settle few centuries thereafter). The more strucking are: Skada, Thor-elle, Freyentaal, Freyjoch, Hodegart (still many others). <br /><br />All this considered, I finally point out the most "imaginative" coincidence which struck me reading the post. Here it is the flag of the highlanders of Asiago: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/10/Stemma-Sette-Comuni.png<br /><br />Three "senior" faces (plus four young faces) which have three distinc colors: red, yellow and blu (which can be associated to the green). THe flag really remindend me Windewuto's. Also, such a emblem is really peculiar and I can't attest any similar motive in the area. <br />The seven faces represents the seven communes of the Highland, though it is very similar in its design to Windewuto's flag. Also, the flag of the highland of Asiago is pretty old, at leats waving since the XIV century.<br /><br />Hope that's interesting, best regards.<br />Federico<br />Federico Vencohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07462781222504043684noreply@blogger.com
