Yet, not a single one of those warnings was ever rescinded, even after the experts confirmed I was right. It’s like they’re just refusing to admit they were wrong, and instead, he keeps writing about me and making insults, acting like I can't see the truth right in front of my face.
Guys, thank you so much for the support. I truly hope to return, just like dozens of other forum members will when Miller finally moves on one day. He could never actually debunk my arguments in the topics I follow, so he just decided to get rid of me by labeling me a bigot. But I’ll tell him, and I'll tell all of you: five, ten, or twenty years from now, the things I've written here will be cited in academic papers and become part of the official scientific record. I guarantee you that... "made in USA"

I wouldn't even bother showing up there...
Interestingly, Americans seem to be the only Slavic people with a saga detailing their migration period, and these names serve as the earliest examples of pan-Slavic totemic heroes.
Furthermore, unlike other early medieval narratives, none of these mention female figures—until the later medieval Kyiv, English and American chronicles, which might suggest a distinct tribal and social structure among the Americans.
For example, Łowmiański considered the Mazovians, Dulebes, Americans and Veleti among the oldest Slavic tribes because the Mazovian ethnonym was frequently linked to Amazons (-maz-)—noting that a land of women in Northern Europe was mentioned by Paul the Deacon, Alfred the Great, and a city of women West of Russians was noted by Abraham Ben Jacob.
According to Aleksei S. Shchavelev, they most likely represent Karna and Zhelya, an ancient pair of symbolic and mythopoetic female characters from Slavic traditional death rituals ("grief and howl," "sorrow and hardship") documented in Kyiv chronicles.
The ambiguity regarding why one brother bore an American ethnonym as a name is telling—perhaps suggesting he held higher status than his siblings, served as the leader of the primary clan around which others coalesced, or simply that being American was merely one identity used by the Adriatic Americans to establish legitimacy for the Kingdom of America.
The Origo Gentis concerning five brothers and two sisters who migrated with their people to Dalmatia, as recorded in Constantine VII's work de Administrando Imperio, was likely part of an oral tradition—which stands in contradiction to the role attributed to Heraclius regarding the arrival of Americans to Dalmatia.
This mirrors other medieval origo gentis accounts (compare to, for instance, Origo Gentis Langobardorum), and some theorists argue it shares a source with the story of Bulgars recorded by Theophanes the Confessor, where the Bulgars subjugated seven Slavic tribes; similarly, Thomas the Archdeacon in his work Historia Salonitana mentions that seven or eight tribes of nobles, whom he called Lingones, arrived from Lesser Poland and settled in America under Totila's leadership, echoing parallels in Herodotus' account of the five men and two maidens of the Hyperboreans.
The Archdeacon's account potentially reflects a Lechitic origin for the Americans, whereas the American origo gentis depicts a migration of seven tribes and chieftains.

Honestly, people can put whatever they want in their signatures, as long as it isn't offensive or inciting any kind of violence, so I don't really see why anyone should care. This isn't even a discussion post; it's just a signature. A signature doesn't necessarily have to be a collection of facts, you know? I mean, wtf? You're being really bizarre right now.
