        It should also be noted that the words "Trojan" and "Etruscan", not
to mention "Tuscan", "Tyrrhenian", and "Tursha" (an Egyptian term for "Sea
Peoples", who were clearly from the Eastern Med), are quite possibly variant
forms of a single word.  "Tarquin" and "Tarsus" might possibly be added to
the list.  But we've been through this before.
        Does anyone out there know where in the Aeneid Lemnos is mentioned?
I have not been able to find it.
