As an Italian woman whose Pagan faith is traced back to Neolithic Anatolia, this news is highly significant for me. It just confirms what I already knew. What the ancients knew.Ancient Etruscans were immigrants from Anatolia, or what is now Turkey

I love stories like this -- a combination of scientific findings and pre-history and ancient (almost mythic) accounts.

Thank you for sharing.

And although, I haven't said it before -- thank you for sharing the articles on the transgendered couple in Pakistan and other issues involving women's rights and gay rights in the Muslim world.

Thanks for following these issues, Andrea! The organization that supports LGBT Muslims is al-Fatiha Foundation - http://www.al-fatiha.org/

Fascinating!

As another Italian Pagan (although my family is from Naples), I thank you. ;-)

Benvenuta, sorella. I'm Sicilian, but we had Anatolians who migrated to Sicily too--the Elymians.
