Talk:Myrine

Myrine and Mursili II
If Amazons were Hittites then Myrine, queen of Amazons, must identified with Mursili II, king of Hatti.

Mursili's war against Arzawa is the same with Myrina's war against Atlantes.

Homer
The Iliad mentions "outside the town and some way off in the plain, there is a high mound, with open ground on every side, which men call Thorn Hill, but the immortals know as the tomb of dancing Myrine. It was here that the Trojans and their allies now formed up in battle order" (Rieu translation, Bk2, around L800). Is this related? 87.202.125.65 (talk) 20:36, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
