origin and history of Prussia PART1

The name Prussia owed the former Kingdom of the native people and their legacies. They called once the Prussians, the so-called Altpreußner. My thanks also to the thirst for knowledge and the intellectual curiosity of mankind.
" I wonder who will explore the present age some day. Just that they might not live to see., Everything is impermanent, including us.
The discovery of unexpected wealth of the modern age has us excited about all the times found the remains of ancestors, whose writings, artifacts, -. usually over many years scientifically analyzed, interpreted and stored separately were just as including the writings of the historian Cornelius Tacitus and other celebrities, which I will go into more detail in the course
.

" Without the archaeological monuments, one could the path of life, history and reconstruct the boundaries of the distribution of these tribes. The tribal names on the early historical records help the identification of archaeologically known cultures, in a few cases they are to be screened in full.


"the fascinating witnesses of our past."


The linguistic and historical context is also part of the history of the Baltic. The term "Balt" can have two different meanings. Depending on whether we use them in the geographical or political sense, or in terms of language, and ethnology. The first includes the Baltic states - Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia - on the east coast of the Baltic Sea located. are talking of people belonging to linguistic groups. Lithuanians, Latvians, Prussians, with their relatives strains for Indo-European language family. Tribes, many of which disappeared over time through their Gechichte. Estonians are Finnu-Ugri, they speak a different Indo-European language, we will not discussed in detail here.

First came the term "Baltic" in 1845 by Ferdinand Nesselmann on. Some of the "Baltic" Vokssprache: Old Prussian, Lithuanian, Latvian, Curonian, Semigallian and Selian. Old Prussian disappeared around 1700 by the German colonization of East Prussia. Curonian, Semigallian Selian and disappeared between 1400 and 1600. Other Eastern Baltic languages \u200b\u200bor dialects, extinct in the early era of .

From the work Germania "AD 98" is 98 AD, , written by the Roman historian Cornelius Tacitus, one could appoint an additional language. - "Aistian" , this was first named by him. Mentioned werden die "Aestii, gentes Aestiorum". Ein Volk, die am Ufer, östlich des Baltischen Meeres, der Ostsee (Mare Svebicum) ihr Terretorium hatten, und auch zu den Baltischen Volkstämmen gehörten.



Tacitus beschreibt dieses germanische Volk als Sammler von Bernstein (dem wertvollen Gold der Prußen) was gegen das Silber der Römer getauscht wurde. Sie waren bekannt als ausgezeichnete Bewirtschafter von Pflanzen und Früchten. Das Aussehen und auch ihre Sitten ähnelte sich mit den, der anderen Volksstämmen sehr. Die Aestii werden u.a. vom "gotischen late Roman historian Jordanes of the 6th . Century " described as very peaceful people, that must, however, have been even before the time of Tacitus




It now has a non-fair idea of \u200b\u200bthe full extent of these fascinating history, with all its links - the reference to ancient rare historical writings of historians, scholars, theologians, mathematicians, which had to explore is also, for example by historian Jordanes is little known

Jordanes literature.. "The origins and deeds of the Goths"
