Fascinating stuff. Thanks for sharing. Happy T13!
Is there any relationship between the god of the sea and the musical instrument? These are all new to me.

Interesting TT. I’m having trouble getting my tongue around some of the names though!
Cool! I’ve never heard of those before. Happy Thursday!
I like that list. Just don’t have me pronounce any of those names. I’m sure I’d butcher them. Happy TT!
