Semerano, The Scholar Feared By The Academy, Awarded (2001)

ADN - Italy Global Nation - Cultura e Scuola ^ | 2001 | staff writer

Giovanni Semerano had to wait 90 years before receiving his first institutional acknowledgement for his important discoveries concerning ancient languages, in particular, the Etruscan language. Semerano has revolutionized the theories tied to the Indo-European languages as the root of the current Mediterranean and European languages. He was defined a "heretic" scholar because he erased centuries of philosophical studies that saw in the Greek-Latin philosophies the origins of European culture. Thanks to his etymological studies the 90-year-old philosopher instead sustains that Western culture derives from the Shiites and the Assyrians.

The Shiites? Western culture from the Shiites? He should have had to wait another 90 years.

No clue what this guy was trying to say. Perhaps he meant Sumerians?

There were no Shiites prior to around 700 CE.

[SunkenCiv]

Yeah, that is odd. Possibly an ESL barrier on the part of the writer?
