@@carmenm.4091 I'll give some examples of these two-syllable names which I have discovered on Iron Age Tartessian inscriptions (mainly in south-western Iberia and round the year 500 BC).

Yes, we share both a lot of words and names...and genes. If you ever come to Denmark you should consider visiting Roskilde, the former capital of Denmark during Viking times. Many Kings and Queens are buried there, from late Viking times up until to day. Also a large Viking museum there with actual dug up Viking ships and much more.
I'm a 32x direct descendant of King Harald. Not only do we share DNA but the same gene pool as well which people think they are the same thing but it's not how it works.

@@admiralbenbow5083 I would imagine from his teeth. Harald Bluetooth remains are buried in a tomb in Roskilde Domkirke, Denmark. Roskilde were the former capital of Denmark, situated an little hours drive from Copenhagen. It are situated in the bottom of a long deep but rather shallow fjord. Vikings roamed there because their ships were safe from weather and potential enemies that would have to travel through the entire fjord to reach the ships and the city. In Roskilde many buried Viking ships have been found, some used as burial ships for Viking leaders others old worn ones as secret underwater obstacles that would be unknown for any enemies. Today you will, besides the Church where also Danish Kings and Queens still are buried in a personal tomb to this date, you can find Roskilde Viking museum with actual ships that have been found, dug up and preserved for all to see. They also have a open workshop where actual building of Viking ships take place with same tools as then. The ships that have been made now give visitors the option of trying to sail an actual viking ship with themselves as engines. Maybe I am biased as a Dane but it are a great museum that gives great insights into a lot of Viking related history and living. One more thing...Our current Queen, Margrethe the second, that after the sad passing of Queen Elisabeth, now are the longest reigning royal monarch in the world have more than a normal artistic gene and she have designed her own tomb, that will ensure she wont be forgotten as long as Denmark and Roskilde church remains. It are already in pace for all to see, the only empty royal tomb.

This shouldn’t be surprising. The area we call Scandinavia was ruled by a Council of Equals, pre Christianity, and was required to be half women. Rick Steves even did a segment on this, on his PBS travel show.
Anyone who claims to be a direct descendant of someone who lived this long ago needs to keep in mind false paternity. “Misattributed parentage or ancestry, where a presumed parent is not the biological parent of an individual or their ancestor, is quite common. Rates of misattributed paternity are estimated to be between 2% and 12% and may vary between populations.”
Certainly, but the royal families interbred with themselves so much that their lineages have a bunch of redundancies, so they are probably safer than most when they call direct lineage to someone ancient.

This can't be right. Her name was originally "Thorvi", the feminine version of "Thor" which is of course linked to the old Norse god of thunder. "Thorvi" later evolved to "Thyra" and so we call her the modern version of her name.
@@Andrea-tr1wm interesting but from your presentation you have no problems changing the letter “o” to to the letter “y” which according to can be changed into the “I” in pronunciation Ti and Thy sounds the same. Vi or Vy or Vo are then the same word combination which according to must be Ra as in Thyra. Hence is not inconceivable that Thyra or Thorvi is a composite name originally derived from TiRA. Tara is also a common name derived from Sanskrit and Gaelic which means “star “ or “hill”. Ti in Mesopotamia languages can mean side or life.
@@rachmondhoward2125 that's all good, but I believe you've misunderstood me: on the rune stones her name is written "Thorvi". So that is the name she had when she was alive. Since the old nordic languages evolved into what they now are, the old norse name "Thorvi" became "Thyra" in modern danish, so that's what we call her now.
My mum always said, that if she could go back in time, she would go back in time and kill the first Christian missionaries, that tried to convert the Danes. That was a disaster for Scandi women. She was right. BTW - if you are interested in Viking women, read up on Gudrid Thorbjørnsdatter, - even though she died as a christian, she was quite something.
Our old norse ancestors also had "vølven" which was bacically a witch who were called in times of crisis and performed magic. They were often burried majestic with all the jewelry and magic runes. But Christianity saw them as evil and dark magic and drew them away.
Our reliance on paper and electronic memory means our knowledge is very fragile. If you want it to last, carve it in stone and find a dry place…….like Egypt.

Not completely true. In many cases the cultures merged. Like here in Sweden, we still bring in Thors goats into our houses at Yule (we still call it Jul) and women walk up with her spouse at weddings as equals, she isn't given away as a piece of meat. Why the Nordic countries are the countries that are most gender equal, is because we didn't have as far to go as the rest of you. And that we have to give thanks to from our ancestors culture.
