INTRODUCTION

Regarding the ethnic identity of ancient Etruscans, confusing writings have been produced since the times of ancient Romans and Greeks. To me the ancient confusion was intentional because ancient Greeks, Romans and the Semitic people jointly wanted to destroy the ancient Turanian civilization and obliterate the Turanian identity of any Turanian Tur/Turk/Oguz peoples whom they could influence. The Turanian civilization was the first worldwide civilization and when it was at its peak in the world, there was no Greek or Roman or Semitic religions or civilizations. Present day DNA studies have tied the origin of Etruscans  to Anatolia. [Achilli A, Olivieri A, Pala M, et al. (April 2007). "Mitochondrial DNA variation of modern Tuscans supports the near eastern origin of Etruscans"   [http://www.cell.com/AJHG/retrieve/pii/S0002929707611069]. For general information about Etruscans and their civilization in Italy, see the Wikipedia link at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Etruscan_civilization.

"Etruscans referred to themselves as Rasenna, but to the Romans and Greeks they were Etrusci, Tusci, Tyrrheni, or Tyrseni. To the modern Italians they are still Etrusci and the name of the Etruscan Sea is still the Tyrrhenian, after perhaps 3,000 years." [http://www.mysteriousetruscans.com/history.html].  

It is said that Etruscans called themselves Rasenna, but it is not clear why it is so different from the names Etrusci, Tusci, Tyrrheni, or Tyrseni as the name Rasenna does not have any linguistic relation to these names. This difference in names may be explained as follows:  The name RASENNA (or RASNA) is most likely another religious identity related to the Sky-God concept in accordance with the ancient Turanian civilization; while the other names such as ETRURIA, ETRUSCAN and TYRRHENI, TYRSENI or TYRSENOI are related to their ethnic identity that is derived from the Sky-God name TUR (TYR, THOR) which is also the linguistic root of the names TURAN, TURANIAN, TURKISTAN, TURKIYE, THRACIA, TURÖY, TYRIAN, TURKMEN, TURK and more.  I believe that even the name RASENNA (or RASNA) is an altered form of an original name in Turkish. 

The Etruscans have been falsely labelled as the "orientalizing" people of ancient Italia, which gives the impression that Etruscans were somehow Indo-European themselves but were trying to imitate the "oriental" peoples in their actions and cultures, or, were culturally influenced by the "oriental" peoples. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Etruscan_jewelry#Orientalizing_Era].  
 
Etruscan and Pelasgian writings are very much the same as the writings of ancient Anatolians and Turks of Central Asia - which commonly used the colon, or a dot, as a word separator. 

Turanians antedated the so-called Indo-Europeans and Semites in Asia, Europe and in North and Central Africa. Etruscans and their kin people were the Turanian natives of the ancient so-called "continent" of Europe - which was called "OGUZ ÖY" meaning "house of Oguz". [http://www.polatkaya.net/EUROPE_was_OGUZOY.html, http://www.polatkaya.net/Indra_Tanri.html].  

Aryans and Semites were the wanderers of the ancient world until they implanted themselves into the so-called "continent of Europe" which is a part of the continent of Asia.  The word Aryan is from the Turkish word "Arayan" meaning "wanderer.  The Aryan Greeks (Rum) are said to have come to the geography presently called "Greece" around the early part of the second millennium B. C.  When the Greeks - (named "Graeci" in Latin - from Turkish "Garachi" meaning "wanderer") came to ancient "Greece", they found there a much earlier established and advanced Turanian civilization.  

The Etruscans founded their capital city of "KIZIL ALMA" meaning "Golden Apple" around 750 B.C., and ruled it for at least a hundred years before it was taken over by the Aryan Romans with the help of other wanderer tribes.  The city was renamed as "ROMA" by the wanderer Romans who intermingled with the Etruscans for at least a thousand years afterwards. In other words, the Romans lived with the Etruscans for a thousand years, and intimately knew them and even sent their children to Etruscan schools to get a better education, yet in their ancient writings, they keep saying that they do not know who these ancient and civilizing Etruscan were! This is not convincing.  They are simply denying the Etruscans ancient Turanian Turkish identity.

The English terms ORIENT and ORIENTAL are falsely said to be from "Old French, or from Latin orientalis" , [Oxford American Dictionaries], which is misleading! In making such a statement, they do not admit the fact that these words, supposedly belonging to "Indo-European" languages, have been ciphered from the Turkish language. When the word ORIENT is deciphered as "TORENI", we see an altered form of the Turkish word   "TURANI" meaning "from Turan; from Orient".  When the word ORIENTAL is deciphered as "TORANLI-E", we see an altered form of the Turkish word  "TURANLI" meaning "Turanian" and/or Turkish "TURANLI Ev" meaning "house of Turanian".  Similarly when the Latin word ORIENTALIS is deciphered as "TORANLIIES", we see an altered form of the Turkish word  "TURANLIYIZ" meaning "we are from Turan".  All of this tells us that the so-called "orientalizing Etruscans" were not imitating anyone, but rather, were living their own Turanian culture and civilization in line with their ancient traditions!

Among the present day writers, Dr. Mario Alinei has done extensive studies, http://www.continuitas.org/texts/alinei_etruscan.pdf,  that relates the Etruscans, first to Hungarians and Uralic Ugric peoples, and then to Indo-Europeans. He does this using some words from the comparison of little known Etruscan language and the present day languages of Hungarian and Ugric peoples. He postulates that, the Magyars, that is, an Ugric people themselves, got separated from other Ugric peoples and moved from the Ob River area to their pesent historical territory.  He also states that "when the Altaic Horse-Riding Turkic Cultures developed in the steppe area, that is, from Mongolia to Hungary, from the times of prehistory, proto-history and history, they influenced Magyars and the Ugric languages. Similarly, the ancestors of Etruscans were also accultured by the Turkish elites. The Magyars and their kin Etruscans moved from Carpathian mountains to Italia where they developed the so-called "Villanova Culture" (that is, the earliest Iron Age culture of central and northern Italy - which was the Etruscan culture, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Villanovan_culture]) of Central Italy at around 1000 B.C.  To this culture also related the Polada culture in Italy. Dr. Mario Alinei bases his views on a postulation put forward by the American Hugh Hencken. The implication of all this is that the Etruscans were not Turanian Turkish people but rather were Indo-European people who got accultured and "orientalized" by the Turanian Turkic peoples!

The name VILLANOVA:

When the word VILLANOVA is deciphered as  "OVALLI-VAN", we see an altered form of the Turkish word "OVALI EVLER" meaning "valley houses" or "houses in the valley".  The Turkish AN suffix is an ancient plurality suffix.  This is a correct decipherment because the Villanovans were living in the Po valley in Italy.  

When the word VILLANOVA is deciphered as  "ALV-OVLIAN", we see an altered form of the Turkish word "ALAV EVLILER" meaning "houses with flame" .  This is also a correct decipherment because the Villanovans were known for their metallurgical culture where they used fire to smelt metals and shape them in the blacksmiths hearths.  

The POLADA culture:

http://www.archaeologywordsmith.com/lookup.php?category=&where=headword&terms=carinated

"Polada
    CATEGORY: site
    DEFINITION: An Early Bronze Age lake dwelling site near the southern end of Lake Garda in Lombardy, Italy, the type site of the Polada culture, c 2200-1600 BC. The culture was characterized by a coarse undecorated ware forming deep carinated cups and various simple jars. The strap handles were often surmounted by knobs. Tlat and slightly flanged axes were made of bronze. Antler was much used, and objects and vessels of wood survive on waterlogged sites. A variety of settlement types occur, including hill sites and lake villages like Polada itself. The Polada people were accomplished metalworkers, producing a range of tools and weapons showing strong connections with Unetice and other Early Bronze Age groups north of the Alps. The Polada culture has features derived from Latin ETRURIA assemblages, such as wristguards and v-perforated buttons, also."


The name POLADA is also interesting to note. Archeologically, POLADA culture is particularly known for its bronze age and later iron working culture. In view of this metal-working activity, the name "POLADA" is very much the same as Turkish name "POLAT" (POLAD, PULAT) which means "steel", "hard iron". It is indicated that the "The Polada people were accomplished metalworkers, producing a range of tools and weapons" which require to be made from "hard iron", that is, "steel".  Ancient Turanians were famed for their metallurgical culture and  iron works.  Turkish ERGENEKON epic story relates their capability in iron works. So I would say that the name of the village  POLADA in Lombardy, Italy is a remnant of that earlier Turanian metal working culture. Regarding the word 'metallurgy', please see my paper at url http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/Polat_Kaya/message/504.

Regarding the Hungarians, of course, they were unquestionably ethnic Turanian Tur/Turk/Oguz peoples, but, the fact that they were "Christianized" is proof that their ancient Turkish identity was changed, and their original Turkic language was "Aryanized" by the church operators (i.e., clergy).  Thus, their Turkish identity was intentionally obliterated by these ancient "Black Magician" priests.  I even suspect that the Etruscan language was also manipulated by the Greek and Roman clergy - since Etruscan words appear confused like Greek, Latin and and other "Aryan" languages.  

For the Turanian identity of Hungarians, for example, we can examine the name BUDAPESHT of the capital city of Hungary.  The Hungarian capital city called "BUDAPESHT" is also called "BUDA PEŞTE" in Turkish. The name can be viewed in two parts as BUDA  and PESHT.  BUDA itself is built on hills.  The name BUDA comes from Turkish "TEPE-O" (DEBE O) meaning "it is hill; it is head".  And the name PESHT is also from Turkish word "BAŞTI" (changed to BASHTI  then to PESHT) meaning "it is head". 

A capital city is called BAŞ KENT in Turkish. The term TEPE (BAŞ) meaning "head" in Turkish, represented a sacred concept in ancient Turanian religion. The capital city BUDAPESHT is built on two banks of the Danube river. The capital city BUDAPESHT being the "top city, the head city" in the country, and also being made up with words BUDA and PESHT, must have been regarded as sacred city of the country in ancient times. Thus, it can be said that the name BUDAPESHT is coming from the ancient Turanian religious considerations of the Human Head as being a creator God figure! Ancient cities, pyramides, kurgans, temples, etc. have all been built as "hill" (tepe) like monuments to honour that principal religious cooncept. The name BUDAPESHT is like the ancient city name Thebes of ancient Masar ("Egyp't) and also the seven-gated city of Thebes in ancient Greece. The name Thebes is also made up from Turkish TEPE-BASH or BASHTE. Thus, the name BUDAPESHT is an indication that ancient Hungarians were Turanian Turkish speaking people.

We have the following information reagarding the ancient history of Budapest at Wikipedia link:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Budapest#Timeline_of_the_history_of_Budapest

"The history of Budapest began with Aquincum, originally a Celtic settlement[10][11] that became the Roman capital of Lower Pannonia.[10]
Neolithic, Chalcolithic-, bronze and iron age cultures, Celtic and Eravisci settlements on present day Budapest.
1st century Romans found the settlements known as Aquincum, Contra-Aquincum and Campona. Aquincum becomes the largest town of the Danubian region and one of the capitals of Pannonia.
5th century The Age of Huns. King Attila builds a city for himself here according to later chronicles. After his death, the sons of his brother Mundzuk (Hungarian: Bendegúz, Turkish: Boncuk), Attila and Bleda (Hungarian:Buda), in control of the united Hun tribes.
896 	Following the foundation of Hungary, Árpád, leader of the Hungarians, settles in the "Town of Attila", usually identified as Aquincum."


The "Celtic" name of AQUINCUM is interesting. This ancient name AQUINCUM, rearranged as  "AI-QUNCU-M",  is the altered and Romanized form of the Turkish name "AY GÜNCÜM" (AY GÜNCÜyüM) meaning "I am Moon and Sun believer".  This makes the ancient "Celtic" people of Hungary as Turkish speaking Turanian peoples.

Similarly, the name "CONTRA-AQUINCUM" means "I am Against the concept that the name AQUINCUM represents".  Of course, this means that the Romans were against AQUINCUM because they wanted to destroy the ancient Sun and Moon based religious concept, that is, "AY GÜN" (GÜN AY) in Turkish and the Turanians themselves. That is why they were against it. So the ancient name of the city was changed to get rid of the old Turanian name "AY GÜN"!

Even the Roman province name PANNONIA, when rearranged as "N-APANIN-O", is the altered form of  the Turanian Turkish expression "aN APANIN Öyü" meaning "House of Sky-Father". 

Similarly, the Romanized name DALMATIA, > "AL-ATA-DMI", which is the altered form of the Turkish expression "AL ATA DAMI" meaning "Home of Red Father", that is, "Home of the Sun".  Thus all of these names have been composed in accordance with the religious concepts of the ancient Turanians, although they are Aryanized!

The name "CELTIC" is also associated by the name "AUSTRIA" which itself is very enlightening.  The name AUSTRIA is a restructured form of the Turkish expressions: a) "OGUZ ÖYÜTÜR" meaning "it is the house of Oguz"; 
b) rearranged as "AS-TUR-IA" is from Turkish "AS TUR ÖYÜ" meaning "one house of Tur". 

Thus, the name "AUSTRIA" is like the word TURKIA which is "TÜRK ÖYÜ" meaning "House of Turk". Indeed, even this name "AUSTRIA" shows that in ancient times it was also a land of the Turanian Tur/Turk/Oguz peoples. This again indicates that the ancient Europe was indeed a house of Oguz!  

Even the name of Atilla's brother being BENDEGUZ in Hunguarian is also interesting, because, it is a Turkish name that says "I am the servant of Oguz", thus, declaring his belief in the ancient Turanian Sky-God concept OGUZ and also means "I am the Oguz" saying that his name was OGUZ  which is a Turkish name for men.

The Romans learned from the Etruscans building aquaducts, the use of arches in aquaducts, bridges, gates, in water and sewer drainage systems and in walls. Some of the Etruscans designed and built arches that have stood up untill the present times after more than 2,000 years later. They were masters in water works.  In this regard, I would also like to bring some Latin words to the attention of the readers. 

The Latin words AQUATOR and AQUATORIS:

The Latin words "aquator" or "aquatoris" mean "water-carrier, water bearer", that is, "one who fetches water".

The Latin word AQUATOR, rearranged letter-by-letter as "ARUQTA-O", is the anagrammatized form of the Turkish expression "ARUKTI O" meaning "it is water channel", "it is irrigation ditch". Turkish word ARUK (ARK) means "water channel, irrigation ditch".

Additionally, the Latin word AQUATOR, rearranged letter-by-letter as "AQUTAR-O", is the altered form of the Turkish expression "AKUTAR O" meaning "it carries water", "it makes water to flow". Turkish word AKUTUR (AKITIR) is derived from Turkish verb AKUTMAK (AKITMAK) meaning "to let water flow".

Similarly the Latin word AQUATORIS, rearranged letter-by-letter as "SU-QATARI-O", is the anagrammatized form of the Turkish expression "SU GETIRI O" meaning "he/she/it brings water", "he/she/it fethches water", "he/she/it is water carrier". This definition in Turkish refers not only to people who actually carries water from one place to another, but also applies to for example , aquaducts which carry water from far away sourses to the cities. Turkish word SU means "water", GETIRI means "he who brings, he who carries" which is derived from Turkish verb GETIRMEK. 

Thus the term AQUAE meaning "water" is also from Turkish word "SU" but in a totally confused way. The term AQUAE by itself is from Turkish "AKUYO" (AKIYOR, AKMAK fiilinden) meaning "it is flowing" describing the running water. "Flowing" (akmak) is a natural characteristic of water. So no part of this so-called "Latin" words is "Latin".  

Thus, in view of these analysis, these "Indo-European" word are nothing but altered, restructured, Romanized and usurped Turkish words and or expression, just like countless words of the so-called "Indo-European" languages have been anagrammatized from the mother/father language of Turkish. Evidently, people have been deceived totally by some ancient so-called "writers" who were mainly the religious priests and rabbies! 

In this citing, the Hellenized name TURSENOS, is the name of the King ATYS of Lydia of ancient Anatolia. rearranged as "SEN-TURSON", is the altered and restructured and Hellenized form of the Turkish name "SEN TURSUN" which has the meanings of:  a) "you are Tur/Turk" which refers to his ethnicity; and additionally, and
b)  "you are Tursun" (you are Dursun, your name is Tursun/Dursun) which refers to his personal name as TURSUN (DURSUN).   TURSUN and DURSUN are two Turkish names for men in Turkish culture. 

Both of these definitions in Turkish identify the Lydian king ATYS  (i.e., ATAŞ in Turkish meaning "fire"), his son and his people as being Anatolian Turkish peoples whose identities have been artificially changed by the Greeks!  

Here it is important to note that the Greek alphabetic symbol of S, when it appears at the and of the "Greek" words, is a letter whose multy identities are not mentioned at all.  Letter S at the and of the word has a different shape than the S that appears within the word.  It is a symbol that acts as letter S, letter Sh, letter Ç and even letter Z.  This is so because this function of the letter is extremely useful when altering and restructuring the Turkish words and expressions into so-called "Greek" words.  In line with this insight knowledge, we see that the Greek name ATUS for the Lydian king is actually the Turkish name ATUŞ (ATAŞ) meaning "fire"!

Because of their Tur/Turk/Oguz identity, the Anatolian Lydian people who went to Italy under the liedership of Tursenos, it is natural that they called themselves by the name TYRSENOS or TYRRHENIANS.  I showed the meaning of Tursenos above. Now let us understand the name TYRRHENIANS which refer to the Etruscans. This was one of the name by which the Etruscans were also remembered.  The analysis of this name is given below. 

a)	The Hellenized name TYRRHENIANS, rearranged as "ER-TYRSIN-HAN", is the altered and restructured form of the Turkish expression "ER TURSUN HAN" meaning "Hero Tursun Han".  This identifies the leader of the Lydian migrating group under a Turkish leader and ruler title name.  Turkish word ER means "man, soldier, hero and husband". 

b)	The name TYRRHENIANS, rearranged as "TYRAN-ERISHN", is the altered and restructured form of the Turkish expression "TURAN ERISIN" meaning "you are Turan man, you are Turan Hero, you are Turan soldier".  This identifies the Lydian migrating group as men, soldiers and heroes from a Turan land.  

c)	The name TYRRHENIANS, rearranged as "TANRY-ERISHN", is the altered and restructured form of the Turkish expression "TANRU ERISIN" meaning "you are Tanri believing man".  This identifies the Lydian migrating group as Turanian Tanri believing Tur/Turk/Oguz people.

d)	The name TYRRHENIANS, rearranged as "TYR-HAN-ERISN", is the altered and restructured form of the Turkish expression "TUR HAN ERISIN" meaning "You are Tur Lord man".  This identifies the Lydian migrating group as Tur Lord people.

e)	The name TYRRHENIANS, rearranged as "TYRSIN-HAN-ER", is the altered and restructured form of the Turkish expression "TURSUN HAN ERI" meaning "men of Lord Tursun".  This identifies the Lydian migrating group as the men of their lider Lord Tursun. 

f)	Similarly, the Hellenized name TYRRHENIAN, rearranged as, "TYRAN-ERHNI", is the altered and restructured and Hellenized form of the Turkish name "TURAN ERENI" meaning "Turanian men, Turanian soldier, Turanian heroes" which identifies the Etruscans as Turanian Tur/Turk/Oguz people from Anatolia. 

Thus all of these definitions in Turkish embedded in the name TYRRHENIANS identify the Etrurian TYRRHENIANS , that is, the ETRUSCANS as Turanian Tur/Turk/Oguz peoples in five different ways!

Regarding the Etruscan name TYRRHENIAN SEA:

When the Etruscan name TYRRHENIAN SEA is rearranged as "TYRAN-EREN SIHA", we see the altered form of the Turkish phrase "TURAN ERLER SUYU" meaning "Sea of theTuranian Men".  This corroborates the fact that the ancient "Mediterranean" geography was populated and surrounded by the Turanian people, e.g., Pelasgians, Etruscans, Sardinians, Sicilians, Corsicans, Minoans, Trojans, Ionians, Phoenicians, Carthaginians, Iberians, Anatolians and the Masarians (so-called Egyptians), just to name a few!  That is why the ancient world was called "House of Oguz"! 

About the name RASENNA (or RASNA): 

The name RASENNA (or RASNA) that Etruscans are said to have used for themselves is most likely another religious identity associated with the Sky-God concept in accordance with the ancient Turanian civilization.
