Missing Frisian cities and towns

Re: Origin of the Jutes

There indeed exists a linguistic argument that ancients thought for the jätte/jättiläinen ('giant'), ettin, Jute/juutti, Goth, Getae all come from one root tribe, or are the descriptors for further tribal split-offs of it. The Finnish etymology for giant is somewhat similar, from jättää or jätti 'to...
