On language alone, our ancient ties have lasted from antiquity straight through to this day, both in speech and in the written word.
History bears it out in archaeological artifacts that are still being discovered. Odd that the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) can’t seem to get that straight . . . but when votes by membership define history rather than truth, perhaps it’s no surprise.
