    What about roads and cities?

    Long-held common belief holds that the Great Wall of China is the only man-made object visible from the moon.

      Here is a comparison between Japanese and Turkish as part of the Altaic theory:

      What is that? (Engl.)
      Sore wa nan desu ka? (Japn.)
      Şu ne dir ki? (Turk.)
      In the name of the blood and the sun, the dagger and the gun, Christ protect this soldier, a lion and a Macedonian.

        Disputes ? They had built it to keep your marauding hordes away from civilisation. To our detriment of course. I wonder how it would of been if the that wall never existed.

          You have a funny of way of connecting historical events.

            Thanks for the link. I didn't know that Japanese also had these words but i didn't see these words for the first time in a comparison list of Uralic/Altaic languages. Most of these words are coming from Sumerian of 3500-2000 BC and these words also exists in today`s Hungarian, Mongolian, Finnish, Estonian and some even exists in Etruscan too. The root is Sumerian as discovered from Sumerian tablets. You can see from this article written by Hungarian linguist;



            Check Hungarian - Turkish comparison section and read the Sumerian equivalents of it. Nearly all common Hungarian-Turkish words are coming from Sumerian like the examples in your wikipedia link as "tepe, kazan, yamac, tas, kes". These words exists in Hungarian too;

            English - Turkish - Hungarian
            Whose book - Kimin kitabi - Kinek könyve
            Who - Kim - Ki
            Many - Cok - Sok
            Little - kucuk - kicsi
            With whom - Kiminle - Kivel

            Apple - elma - alma
            My apple - elma(m) - alma(m)
            My apples - elma(larim) - alma(im)

            There are some Sumerian examples in slavic languages too like Bulgarian "obicham" Turkish "opucem", "kuche, kuce, eth, ith" Turkish "kuchu, it", "hayduk, ayduk" turkish "haydut". I cant remember some examples but there are words like these in Russian too.

            I think the word in my quote above is common in all Altaic/Uralic/Slavic languages; English "pocket", Turkish ceb, in altaic, slavic, uralic languages, it`s "djeb, zseb, dzhop, dzeb". It should be a Sumerian word. There are many more like this.

            This connection is surely not related with Ottoman era, it has roots from much earlier time.
