I find this very interesting. I can't wait to see what discoveries are made.

If there turns out to be an Egyptian influence, it could lend some credibilty to the minority group in in the Balkans who identify themselves as "Egyptian".

It is believed that they are either Roma from Egypt, or decendents from Egyptian soldiers from the 4th century, however, it has been questioned by some historians.
