Your Ancestors moved from Mainland Greece to Cyprus with their Danaean ships when Bosniensis even didn't knew to swim and cross the Danube river.

I am so ancient, when my ancestors were mining copper and building ships, Bosniensis's ancestors were considered part of the lunch menu.

Triballi of course... NEVER CALLED THEMSELVES TRIBALLI...

Triballians never heard for that Term.

It's HOW GREEKS called Triballians.


"Means something in Albanian" ROFL.....

Greeks said Triballians (OR HOW THEY CALL THEMSELVES - SERBIANS)

What does it mean in greek then?

[Trilecce]

What Alphabet did Albanians use before the 18th century?

Over 95% ileteracy. But those who were learned wrote wither latin, greek or arabic letters. Depending on freligious affinity of course.

In greek it translates into triarchontas. Triballi is not greek word.

18th century is not "ancient" it's contemporary.

It wasn't "discovered" it was invented.

18th century is neither ancient nor contemporary.

All alphabets are invented so you're not really saying anything. Anyhow, it was discovered in the sense that it wasn't part of the Albanian records, someone found texts where it was used and walaa, a discovery. Although 18th century seems not too far away for you, it was very much so for an individual Albanian alphabet. Albanian history, poems, and songs were orally transmitted rather than written down. When things were written down, they were done so by always using the Latin alphabet or Arabic or even Cyrillic (rarely) alphabets, this alphabet I suppose was developed as a counter, as a alphabet that would be more suitable for the Albanian language.
