² We know that intervocalic s remained in Illyrian from such names as Īsarcus : Goth, eisarn (WP 1.4), Aύσανκαλεí, Ausancalione, Anausaro (Hans Krähe, Die alten balkanillyrischen geographischen Namen 82, 1925) and Vescleves-is < IE *k̑lewes-(WP 1.310). Many Illyrian names with initial prevocalic s, such as Senta, Sextus, Sexticus, Sexto (these last are almost certainly not Latin in origin), Salvia, have every appearance of possessing IE s- (see lists in Krahe, op. cit. and Lexikon altillyrischer Personennamen, 1929).

³ See Edward Schwyzer, Griechische Grammatik, allgemeiner Teil and Lautlehre, 1934, digest of phonological evidence bearing on Macedonian, with literature, 69–71.

⁴ Schwyzer 69, note 3; and cf. WP 1. 151.

⁶ Hoffmann, op. cit. 55–8, particularly 56.

⁷ These Tokh. words are not immediately referable to Germanic *hauha- ‘high’, though perhaps ultimately related. See G. S. Lane, Problems of Tocharian Phonology, Language 14.26 [read *qou-q- for *quo-q-]. This is by no means an isolated example of special correspondence between Tokharian and Illyrian (including Macedonian), as I hope to show in detail at another time.

⁸ Present-day Macedonian Greek is a development of the Koinē but has a number of interesting survivals of the old Macedonian language.

⁹ See, e.g., genuine Macedonian personal names (Sabattaras, Sippas, Sirras) in Krahe's material.
