Etruscan

[Anthony Appleyard]

With apology for likely going off-topic (as Etruscan seems to be non-Indo-European), but is there a web group anywhere that discusses the Etruscan language?

I've not run into one myself. Did you actually find one, Anthony?

I had been wondering where the Greek place "cases" ending in -thi and -then came from :: it seems that Etruscan also has a locative case ending in -thi.

(Turkish has place cases ending in -da and -dan, but in classical times their ancestors likely lived 3 months' travel by camel away from the Greeks.)
