very fine young men ... The lineage was Zeus Arkeisios
Laertes Odysseus Telemachos. As rulers they were sons

bull, they were heavenly calves. The Peloponnes lies in
the west of the Indo-European homeland, and the ones
who reached the Peoloponnes came via Attika

ITA LIA --- calf, safe very safe (see a previous post),
