>>19780415Tacitus thought the Jews were from Crete because the name Iudaea appears to be from Idaea. When the Sea Peoples invaded they spread the name across the region, but this happens in the aftermath of the Trojan war. In other words, the Trojan Mt. Ida necessarily has to be in Scythia or the Balkans. Iudaea actually was named after Idaea too but when the Persians conquered it they renamed it "Yehud". Habiru were called Saga in Sumerian which is the same as Saka, Iranic Scythians. I’m not saying Scythians were jews, Scythian is a broad term for a lot of related and unrelated nomadic tribes. But even the name Ashkenaz and the term Ashkenazi (as in jews) is derived from Saka/Scythian. Sometimes a name is more than a name. The Khazars later occupied a large tract of land that overlaps with modern Ukraine but includes part of Russia and the Volga delta where their capital was.
The Phoenicians say they're from Khna/Chana. The Sanskrit word for China is Cina. It is said that the name for China comes from the Qin dynasty. The place the Qin dynasty originated from was east of the Tocharians and had some 30-40 Pyramids. The Tocharians were the furthest eastern expansion of the Indo-Europeans we know of. Another example of said people are the Scythians. A people who undoubtedly had links to the Israeli exiled charioteers as they admonished Idolatry, worshipped a single god and held no swine in their herds.
