http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main...8/ixworld.html The oldest map of anywhere in the western world, dating from about 500 BC, has been unearthed in southern Italy. Known as the Soleto Map, the depiction of Apulia, the heel of Italy's "boot", is on a piece of black-glazed terracotta vase about the size of a postage stamp. The map details the Puglia region of southern Italy It was found in a dig led by the Belgian archaeologist Thierry van Compernolle, of Montpellier University, two years ago. But its existence was kept secret until more research was carried out. The Soleto map also gives vital new clues to the cultural exchange between the newly arrived Greeks and the Messapi. They lived in the area but probably came originally from Greece as their language is believed to be a dialect of Illyrian. The Soleto map is a contemporary of the Greek mathematician Pythagoras, who set up a philosophy school in Crotone, now Calabria, on the other side of the Gulf of Taranto. |

Its wrong since Messapians were not Illyrians and they did not come from Greece.

You are a complete hopeless case.This may work on albanians but this isn't an albanian forum.Your level or trolling and lying has hit the fan. I told you to provide links for your images and you didn't. That image does not correspond to that text.
