Serious editing

[edit]

All of these articles on Lusitanian deities are in need of serious editing. Unfortunately, I have no resources available regarding the mythology of the Lusitanians and thus am not able to do more than correct some of the spelling and grammar. Please feel free to expand this article in any way you can.

I've left the assertions by Moisés Espírito Santo in for now, but can anyone find sources? How respectable a source is he? Can anyone find anything about her assocation with cypress branches? Paul S (talk) 23:26, 27 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Not at all a respectable source. He is basically seen as an excentric inventor of mythologies. His works is held in little or no account, and is contradicted by almost all archeological and linguistic data (he is a sociologist, not at all and expert in historical, linguistic or archeological analysis). He defendes the crazy and impossible hipotesys that the Portuguese are basically of Phoenician (Canaanite) origin and spoke a Semitic language until the Middle Ages...! He should be left ou.

Okay - anyone who wants to keep MES speak now or forever hold your peace... Paul S (talk) 12:12, 29 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I left a message for Babel2675 who first added (fringe) theory, but (s)he doesn't seem to still be active (no talk for nearly 2 years) I'll snip the MES stuff. Paul S (talk) 19:45, 3 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
