Changed Norse to Germanic. Whatever the Alaisiagae were, they were not specifically Norse. Io 18:57, 21 Jul 2004 (UTC)

No, they were Celtic according to this site: http://www.timelessmyths.com/celtic/british.html. The info is probably taken from an Internet site: http://www.pantheon.org/articles/a/alaisiagae.html The ungermanic form is proof enough for me that they were neither Norse nor Germanic --Wiglaf 09:43, 22 Jul 2004 (UTC)

Hardly. I'm doing research on them now and the academic sources only ever talk about a Germanic origin, or Celto-Germanic according to one source. Haven't found anything pointing to a Celtic origin yet. I hope to find the time to do some editing here. (Gislertha (talk) 15:02, 21 June 2020 (UTC))

Reference l'Année Épigraphique for 1973
Geoffrey M. Gleadall talked about two inscriptions in Greek recorded in L'Annee Epigraphique for the year 1973. Alas I couldn't find these inscriptions there, neither other persons I asked about this problem. Who can tell me where I can find these inscriptions en what is exactly mentioned in it ? Geoffrey can you perhaps help me ? send 3 Feb 2007.

The only other reference I can find on the internet for this says "AE 1973 265/266." The items in this journal are numbered. In this particular journal, these items are on the first page for the Sicily section. These say nothing at all about the Alaisiagae or any of the deities mentioned. Propose we remove this?

I take it back. After looking at the inscription in the journal, I believe Geoffrey is referring to Άλαισίγοι Álaisígoi. I lack Greek abilities in my skill tree, so I'm not sure if this is a common word for something else. Cloudtoad (talk) 17:51, 16 January 2020 (UTC)

Ok, this appears to be a misreading on Geoffrey's part. It's actually Άλαισίνοι / Álaisínoi. This is a reference to the people of Halaesa in Sicily, which has it's own wiki page. Will remove the reference. Cloudtoad (talk) 18:01, 16 January 2020 (UTC)

Phonemic Alaisiagae
Seeing as I am finding it rather impossible to know for sure how this is to be pronounced is anyone out there that could give us the phonemic script for it? Mephisteus (talk) 18:19, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

Valkyries
HR Ellis Davidson interprets the Alaisiagae as Valkyries with their connection to war. Alaisiagae is translated as 'all conquering' and there is the connection with Mars Thincsus which seems to be a version of Tiw, god of the Thing -which again links them with war. Beda/BAVDIHILLIE is according to her the same as Beadohild/Bodvild in the Wayland saga. Bunnyman78 (talk) 16:00, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
