Vigil Posted August 6, 2004 Report Share Posted August 6, 2004 Galatian - a native or inhabitant of Galatia in Asia Minor (especially a member of a people believed to have been Gauls who conquered Galatia in the 3rd century) Do they have a relationship with ancient Armenians?

Vigil Posted August 6, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2004 The only reason I ask is because they were in the Asia minor. I never knew the Guals had a presense in the Asia Minor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teutonic Knight Posted August 7, 2004 Report Share Posted August 7, 2004 Allegedly yes. I met several Armenians that claim to be Galacs. Galacs are supposed to be Galatians who were Armenianized. They speak a language that sounds like a mix of Grabar and Gaelic. Example: "heyr sirdes to galac mayr u elbayr...holund u odeir eir" Which means: love your ethnic mother and brother, descendants of your land. One of them posted here a few months ago but he got banned because of his insane dashnak partisan rhetoric. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vigil Posted August 7, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2004 (edited) Thanks, Tk Yeah, I heard something along those lines as well. One of them posted here a few months ago but he got banned because of his insane dashnak partisan rhetoric. Yeah, the Mods have a habit of doing that to Armenians. See I do not understand why they ban them for being nationalistic? I mean I am not "nationalistic" and in fact I am far from a nationalist. I have learned long ago that the age of Alexander’s, Napoleons, and Genghis Khans are over, but the era of Capitalists is in its infancy. The neo-capitalist is the neo-nationalist. The best guess I can come up with is that the modern society, which is predominantly controlled by the media, has made being ethnocentric the equivalent of being racist. Anyways I do not want to derail this thread, but I am going to research this a bit more, thanks. Edited August 7, 2004 by Vigil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaunt Posted August 7, 2004 Report Share Posted August 7, 2004 Look at the red hair gene in Armenians. Doesn't it make sense that it came from intermixing between Armenians and Galatians? It helps to explain my reddish-orangish-brownish beard, . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vigil Posted August 7, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2004 It helps to explain my reddish-orangish-brownish beard. Dam, "Tashnags"...jk...most Dashnaks have that beard, however, only Dasknaks grow beards. Yeah, that is strange phenomenon and what is even stranger is that I find that only among Armenians.

I hope by Dashnaks you mean traitors, that were once the first one to kiss the turkish ass (members of Turkish parliament, strongly opposing Armenian Republic, Arabasized bastards whose first love is Lebanon and Syria).

"They speak a language that sounds like a mix of Grabar and Gaelic.

I'm interested what that language would sound like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
