*****GK: So basically Przeworsk = Pomeranian
(aut.)+Jastorf (incoming)+La Tene (inc.)infl.? With
Jastorf definitely Germanic, and La Tene Celtic, is
the idea that the older autochtonous Pomeranian
culture was "Germanized", or that it too was already
Germanic?****

*****GK: Did Okcywie also absorb Jastorf elements? Or
should it be considered an alternative Germanic
"foyer"?*****
