And don't even try searching for "pelasgian". Apart from a TIED page I had
already seen, I got mostly weird New Age sites (including one that offered
to reveal me the secrets of the universe, if only I sent some money to a
certain account ...), and a page "proving" that, since languages can't die
out, Turkish is the descendant of every supposedly dead language in the Near
East and neighbouring areas, including Pelasgian, Hettite, Akkadian,
Sumerian, Aksumite and quite a few more.
