Aargh!!!

My work email inbox has just Vanished everything but one single confirmation for a lecture course on the Hittites. I think I want to bash my head against something *very* hard.
hummelchen, if you mailed me, I never got to see anything!
I *do* keep my fingers crossed that it might be just a glitch, but I'm really sceptical about it.

Aargh, again!

Oh well, if it were my fandom mail account, I'd *really* go drown myself in the nearest duckpond...

Still... aargh!!!!

*cough*
'Tenuous' might just about qualify for the understatement of the century...
And ancient history *would* be my alley if it wasn't even more breadless than what I'm already doing...

Connection: Indo-European (Indogermanisch) languages. And I-E research - especially in the area of culture and mythology - is actually what I do. It does cover an awful lot of ground. Unfortunately, though the Hittites are the most ancient I-E grouping known, it seems fairly certain that they had suffered some sort of prehistoric displacement, and their culture has more in common with that of their Hurrian neighbours (non-I-E) than that of the common I-E past. However, apart from their own historical importance, they matter because it seems likely that it was through them that various Hurrian religious ideas reached the earliest Greeks, modifying their original I-E culture. Sorry if I'm repeating stuff you know already.
