Las Humanas, also known as Jumano Pueblo, was one of the Tompiro Indians Pubelos in the vicinity of the Manzano Mountains of New Mexico . It was a center of the salt trade prior to the Spanish incursion into the region and traded heavily with the Jumanos of the area of modern Presidio, Texas and other central Rio Grande areas. It may have also traded with Jumanos along the Pecos River and other places to the east and maybe even north. At the time the Spanish came in the 1580s Las Humans had a population of about 3,000. The area suffered from Spanish expropriation of resources and then from droughts in the 1660s. 450 residents died in 1668 and by the early 1670s the Pueblo was abandoned.

Quirites was the earliest name of the Burgess title burgesses of Ancient Rome . The singular is quiris meaning spear . Sources derive the term from Cures , the capital of the Sabines , who were assimilated by the Romans early on in their traditional ethnogenesis . Combined in the phrase populus Romanus quirites or quiritium it denoted the individual citizen as contrasted with the community. Hence ius quiritium in Roman law is full Roman citizenship. Subsequently the term lost the military associations due to the original conception of the people as a body of warriors, and was applied sometimes in a deprecatory sense, cf. Tacitus Tac.

In a book published in 1984, the three authors proposed an alternative view on the ethnogenesis of the Slovene people they rejected the notion that the Slovenes were descended of Slavs who settled the area in the 6th century, claiming that the ancestors of modern Slovenes were in fact a pre Roman people they call Veneti which would include the Adriatic Veneti , the Baltic Veneti , the Pannonians , the Noricum Noricans and some other peoples that traditional historiography identified either as Celts or Illyrians . According to the Venetic theory, the ancient Veneti spoke a proto Slavic language from which modern Slovene and West Slavic languages emerged. The theory is based on several different arguments.

It appeared in a number of documents from the period, in most cases coupled with the word Good Dobri . Debate on the exact nature of the term is inconclusive. Some historians believe that it indicates a unique ethnicity while others believe that it indicates a geographical identity, rather than an ethnic. Today the name is considered archaic, and is used only in the correct historical context. The records of the term date to the 12th century in the Medieval Bosnian kingdom.

The term Bo njani emerges, implying the ethnogenesis of a new South Slavic tribe, whose ethnic development is obviously significantly formed by the heretic Bosnian Church . Serb references often claim Bosnjani to be a ethnic term in domestic documentary sources and are either early self referrals, or the description of the Kotromani s crown the Bosnian king who wore the crown of Bosnia and Serbia . This is due to a claimed historical event Tvrtkos crowning as the King of Bosnia and Serbia in Miliseva other soruces claim this crowning took place in Visoko after his conquest of the Dukljan land from Serbia, and secondly after also taking over crown as the king of Serbia after Knez Lazar s death in the Kosovo battle.

Vinko Pribojevi mid 15th century after 1532 lang la Vincentius Priboevius was a Croatia n historian and ideologue , best known as the founder of the pan Slavism pan Slavic ideology . Pribojevi was born on the island of Hvar . He was educated in the Humanism humanist spirit and joined the Dominican Order around 1522. His most famous work is the speech De origine successibusque Slavorum On the Origin and Glory of the Slavs , where he exalts Illyrians and Slavs as the ancestors of the Dalmatia n Croats. His speech, most probably made in Venice in 1525, left a deep impression on the Republic of Venice Venetians , who published it in Latin language Latin and Italian language Italian several times over the following years. Its passionate glorification of Slavs in which the book includes Alexander the Great and Aristotle , Diocletian and Jerome and its strong pathos played a major role in the birth of the pan Slavism pan Slavic ideology .

At the time of Humanism and the Renaissance , there was still no established rational and critical apparatus differentiating between truth and fiction in the murky issues of ethnogenesis and national linguistic loyalties. In fact, various fantastic theories on the origin of peopl ... more details
