Abstract
The most efficient tool to optimize language and communication channels is a concept for the
encoding architecture, which in the Latin and Greek alphabets is built by an ingenious
categorization. The alphabetic letters are grouped in 5 categories, which seemed to have been used
for the word compositions. For faster interpretations I colored the names of these 5 categories in
suitable colors: lingual, palatal, guttural, labial, dental.
The Frankish royalty started a series of special names from Chlodio1 (CLODIUS, d. approx. 450
AD) or Clovis () onward, whose name may be interpreted as (Ch)LOUIS. Several names including
Charlemagne (KAROLVS) and LOUIS in their offspring are using these 5 categories.
The 7th-century Chronicle of Fredegar implies that the Merovingians were descended from a sea-
beast called a quinotaur, a "bull with five horns", which could be used to describe the 5 categories.
In southern France the Provencal language the words for “to say” (dire), “to be” (estre), “to laugh”
(rire) and “to see” (veire) reveal an ego-pronoun IÉU in the first person singular conjugation: “I
say” DIÉU, “I am” SIÉU , “I laugh” RIÉU and “I see” VIÉU. These vowels represent the 3
categories for vowels (palatal, guttural, labial).
A respectable number of the perfect pentagrams (such as BRENG , PRACHT and PRONG) does
not have an etymology of a known origin.
For a given alphabet with categorized letters and 5 categories the total number of possible Perfect
Pentragrams may be listed. For an alphabet with 5 x 5 letters the output contains 55 = 3125words.
24 pentagrams start with a lingual (D, T or L) and 13 with a labial letter (F, B, P, W). Only 3
pentagrams (versions of → JUDAS) start with a palatal letter (J, I, Y).
1 Chlodio (d. approx. 450) also Clodio, Clodius, Clodion, Cloio or Chlogio, was a Frankish king who attacked, and
apparently then held, Roman-inhabited lands and cities in the Silva Carbonaria forest, now in central Belgium, then
Cambrai and Tournai, and reached as far south as the River Somme. (Source: (Wikipedia: Chlodio)
An Overview (as an Introduction)
No, I am not a linguist and the languages I really mastered and completely understood
belonged to the computer software languages. Another view to linguistics may be enabled
by studying encoding systems.
The most efficient tool to optimize language and communication channels is a concept for the
encoding architecture, which in the Latin and Greek alphabets is built by an ingenious
categorization. The alphabetic letters are grouped in 5 categories, which seemed to have been used
for the word compositions. For faster interpretations I colored the names of these 5 categories in
suitable colors: lingual, palatal, guttural, labial, dental. As a reference I did choose for a Hebrew
alphabet for which a rabbi documented a categorization of the letters:
If we rotate the list 90° to the left we may read the name T9-I10-Ε5-V6-S15 we may identify IΕV or
IΕU as the Great Name and the name TIΕUS, which is close to DIAUS.
The image may be symbolizing a 5 letter "bull with two horns" T22 and S21. Only this matrix pattern
of 22 letters will be able to display IΕV in the center of the alphabet. Just like an Egyptian
hieroglyphic inscription the Great Name IΕV seems to be included inside a “Cartouche” of the
surrounding 12 letters L-Ch-H-M-Ts-S-Z-B-Æ-G-D-T.

The Frankish royalty started a series of special names from Chlodio2 (CLODIUS, d. approx. 450
AD) or Clovis onward, whose name may be interpreted as (Ch)LOUIS. Several names including
Charlemagne (KAROLVS) in their offspring are using these 5 categories.
2 Chlodio (d. approx. 450) also Clodio, Clodius, Clodion, Cloio or Chlogio, was a Frankish king who attacked, and
apparently then held, Roman-inhabited lands and cities in the Silva Carbonaria forest, now in central Belgium, then
Cambrai and Tournai, and reached as far south as the River Somme. (Source Chlodio)
Some of the divine names and royal names are also structured as perfect pentagrams, which are
composed by using one letter of each category.
The origins of the Frankish language, which sometimes is located in the Flemish region, where I
grew up. The Franks were identified to have crossed the frozen river Rhine and conquered the
abandoned remains in the northern part of the Roman Empire. Initially the royals named themselves
Merovingians.
The Quinotaur (Lat. QUINOTAURUS) is a mythical sea creature mentioned in the 7th
century Frankish Chronicle of Fredegar. Referred to as "bestea Neptuni Quinotauri
similis",[1] (the beast of Neptune which resembles a Quinotaur) it was held to have
fathered Meroveus by attacking the wife of the Frankish king Chlodio and thus to have
sired the line of Merovingian kings.
As a set of 3 vowels (?) the Great Name IΕV at the center of the Hebrew alphabet may be identified
as Neptune's trident. The other pair of horns represented the consonants lingual T and dental S in
the name TIΕUS.
The name translates from Latin as "bull with five horns", whose attributes have
commonly been interpreted as the incorporated symbols of the sea god Neptune with his
trident, and the horns of a mythical bull or Minotaur. It is not known whether the legend
merged both elements by itself or whether this merger should be attributed to the
Christian author.[2] The clerical Latinity of the name does not indicate whether it is a
translation of some genuine Frankish creature or a coining.
Therefore the perfect pentagram MINOS may involve the CRETAN royals in the search of the
nephew who might have fertilized the Frankish queen.

Childeric's grave
Childeric's tomb was discovered in 1653 [11] not far from the 12th-century church of Saint-Brice in
Tournai, now in Belgium.[12]
Numerous precious objects were found, including jewels of gold and garnet cloisonné,
gold coins, a gold bull's head, and a ring with the king's name inscribed. Some 300
golden winged insects (usually viewed as bees or cicadas) were also found which had
been placed on the king's cloak.[11] Archduke Leopold WILLIAM, governor of the
Southern Netherlands (today's Belgium), had the find published in Latin. The treasure
went first to the Habsburgs in Vienna, then as a gift to King LOUIS XIV of France.
On the night of November 5–6, 1831, the treasure of Childeric was among 80 kg of
treasure stolen from the Library and melted down for the gold4
Strange as it may seem the royal symbols of Childeric's grave combined two APIS-symbols which
had been found in the documentation of the burial gifts:5
• the tiny bees (Latin singular: APIS6 ; plural: APIDAE; French: apidés, ABEILLE)
• and the impressive APIS-bulls.
The bull is depicted with two horns. Apis was the most popular of three great bull cults
of ancient Egypt, the others being the cults of Mnevis and Buchis. All are related to the
worship of Hathor or Bat, similar primary goddesses separated by region until
unification that eventually merged as Hathor. The worship of Apis was continued by the
Greeks and after them by the Romans, and lasted until almost 400 CE.7
The bull seems to have three holes to guide the couple of tapes from the top of the head to the
couple of nose holes. The tapes seem to be split up from the top side to the nose holes.
I hesitate to combine the APIS-bees and Childeric's APIS-bulls because we cannot be sure why
Childeric (ChILDΕRIC or ChILDΕRICUS) chose these symbols of the bees with a stinger and the
bulls with the splitting channel inside the bull's head.
I hesitate to consider the stinger as a weapon, but the royals must have activated any available tool
to gain the ruling power.
Therefore I documented these ideas to find other arguments to confirm these suggestions or to
replace the idea by an antithesis.
The Salii likewise wore the apex. The accompanying illustration shows one of the Salii
wearing the apex and with a rod in his hand. (See Salii.) The albogalerus, or albus
galerus, was a white cap worn by the flamen dialis, made of the skin of a white victim
sacrificed to Iupiter, and having the apex fastened to it by an olive twig. 9
8 The painful stings of bees are mostly associated with the poison gland

Clovis' mother Basina
In 463, BASINA married Childeric I, son of Merovech and his wife, and had the following children:
1. Clovis I (spelled CLOVIS, ChLODOWIG, or ChLODOVΕCh) (466 – 511).
2. Audofleda (AUDOFLΕDA) (467 – 511). Queen of the Ostrogoths. Wife of Theodoric the
Great
3. Lantechildis (LANTEChILDIS) (468 – ¿¿??).
4. Albofledis (ALBOFLΕDIS) (470 – ¿¿??).
The first episcopal site Chur at the northern side of the Alps
Chur (CURIA10) is known as the oldest town of the Switzerland. In the 4th century, Chur became
the seat of the first Christian bishopric north of the Alps. Despite a legend assigning its foundation
to an alleged Briton king, St. Lucius, the first known bishop is one Asinio[6] in 451 AD. After the
invasion of the Ostrogoths, it was rechristened Theodoricopolis; in the 6th century it was conquered
by the Franks.[7]
The central monastery is installed 450 AD and may have advised Chlodio (CLODIUS, d. approx.
450 AD) or his parents to compose the royal names according to a formula with 5 categories. Also
the bishop might have suggested to prescribe the 3-vowel composition of the personal pronouns
(JÉU, JOU, JAU, IHU).
10 The name "chur" derives perhaps from the Celtic kora or koria, meaning "tribe", or from the Latin CURIA.
The inscriptions of the Tuihanti (Tuchenti)
The following inscriptions are found in Cuneus Frisiorum Vercovicianorum (the name of units of
Frisian auxiliaries in the Roman army):
Two memorial stones in Housesteads, Hexham, England mention the name. They were
engraved by Frisian soldiers from Twente (TUIHANTI) in the 3rd century between 222
and 235, and are dedicated to Mars Thingsus.[1] They were discovered in 1883.[1] One
is from a pillar shaped altar and the other from a smaller altar; they are engraved in
pretty badly written Latin:
"To the god MARS and the two Alaisiagae, and to the divine power of the
Emperor, the Germanic tribesmen of TUIHANTIS of the formation of Frisians
of Vercovicium, Severus Alexanders's own, willingly and deservedly fulfilled
their vow."
and:
"To the god MARS THINCSUS and the two Alaisiagae, Beda and Fimmilena,
and the divine power of the Emperor, Germanic tribesmen from TUIHANTIS
willingly and deservedly fulfilled their vow."[2]
MARS THINCSUS is correlated with the Germanic war-god Týr. The latter was associated with
oath-taking and the Thing, a local assembly of free men.
The origin of the Merovingians
A link to the origin of the Merovingians had been introduced by the parents of Chlodio, whose
legendary biography is said to be described in Historia Francorum by bishop and historian Gregory
of Tours, completed in 594.11
The non-contemporary Liber Historiae Francorum says his father was Pharamond, a
Frankish King only known from such medieval records. Pharamond in turn was said to
be the son of a real Frankish king, known to have fought the Romans, Marcomer.
The Chronicle of Fredegar, on the other hand, makes Chlodio son of Theudemeres,
another real Frankish king who Gregory of Tours reported to have been executed with
his mother by the Romans.
The 7th-century Chronicle of Fredegar implies that the Merovingians were descended from a sea-
beast called a quinotaur:
It is said that while Chlodio was staying at the seaside with his wife one summer, his
wife went into the sea at midday to bathe, and a beast of Neptune rather like a Quinotaur
found her. In the event she was made pregnant, either by the beast or by her husband,
and she gave birth to a son called Merovech, from whom the kings of the Franks have
subsequently been called Merovingians.[3] 12
The name Quinotaur translates from Latin as "bull with five horns", whose attributes have
commonly been interpreted as the incorporated symbols of the sea god Neptune with his trident, and
the horns of a mythical bull or Minotaur. 13
The 5 horns however also may be symbolizing the 5 categories of the alphabet, which already had
been used to compose the royal names of the Merovingians and Franks from 5 categories14.
The royal names with the 5 letters lingual, palatal, guttural, labial, dental
A great number of French kings inherited the names CLODIUS and CLOVIS, which was to be
shortened to LOVIS and transformed to French LOUIS (LOUIS) en Engels LEWIS and the Dutch
ChLODOVΕCh - LODEWIJK respectively the German LUDWIG)15.
The requirements of 5 categories are applied for including Charlemagne ( KAROLVS), LOUIS and
LEWIS, as well as newer names FRΕDΕRICK, (Dutch: FRΕDΕRIK, German: FRIΕDRICh) and
MAURICE (Dutch: MAURITS), which in the Frankish pedigree have been composed in medieval
eras.
The relevant dynasties from the predecessors of Clovis up to the last German emperor are listed in
Appendix 3 – Overview of the Frankish and Merovingian dynasties16.
The next step was the analysis of the language, for which I had documented the Provencal in earlier
papers17.

The IÉU-conjugations in Provencal
In Provencal the conjugation of verbs resulted in a IÉU-suffix for the conditional conjugation and
for a majority of the imperfect conjugations. Even a few of the present conjugations seemed to be
conjugated with a IÉU-suffix.
In Provencal these IÉU-conjugations represented the core of the palatal, guttural, labial vowels. In
fact Provencal language seemed to be using a set of very simple rules:
Provencal expression English Roots for the IÉU-conjugations
(in the word-generator)
The words to say (dire), to be (estre), to laugh (rire) and to see (veire) reveal an ego-pronoun in the
first person singular conjugation: DIÉU, SIÉU, RIÉU and VIÉU. Maybe this list may be extended
by an original concept with AIÉU or AVIÉU (“I have”) and FIÉU or FIAU.
The remarkable effect is the intact 3-vowel structure for the ego-pronoun IÉU, which in modern
languages has been deteriorated, in French to “je” or in English even to a singular vowel “i”.
The Provencal language seemed to have preserved its original linguistic concept for some
categories of words.
A remarkable word “diéu” also matches the Provencal word “Diéu” (“God”), which also includes
the 3-vowel ego-pronoun “IÉU”.
As a remarkable feature these words are using a letter “e” with an accent aigu, which enforces the
speakers to pronounce this 3-vowel structure as triphthong with long, isolated vowels “ii-ee-uu”, ”ï-
ē-ū” or “î-ê-û”.
The triphthong (representing "with three sounds," or "with three tones") is a
monosyllabic vowel combination involving a quick but smooth movement of the
articulator from one vowel quality to another that passes over a third. 20

Compare also Saxon, traditionally from root of Old English seax "knife." The adjectival
sense of "free, at liberty" (see frank (adj.)) probably developed from the tribal name, not
the other way round. It was noted by 1680s that, in the Levant, this was the name given
to anyone of Western nationality (compare Feringhee and lingua franca).23
The relation between FRANK and LIBER by their common root “Freedom” suggests these words
have been formed from the perfect pentagrams.
1-Vowel words
The following list contains a number of words which form perfect pentagrams. Some of these words
do not belong to the category “divine names”, “royal names”, demonyms, rivers or “freedom”-
attributes.
The most impressive is the couple (FRANK and LIBER) of perfect pentagrams, which share their
reference to freedom.
In order to identify suitable European words the word-generator had to be modified to sort the
output-file in 0-vowel, 1-vowel, 2-vowel end 3-vowel words. The files with sorted 2-vowel and 3-
vowel words allow us to identify the relevant words in modern European languages.

2-Vowel words
A respectable number of words (TIBER, ,PYOTR, LIBER) in these categories refer to uncertain
etymologies, sometimes even silly (in the case of FAÐIR , PITAR): presumably from baby-speak
sound "pa."
The most spectacular 2-vowel perfect pentagram may be “LIBER“ (“free”), which shares the same
meaning (“freedom”) with the Frankish “FRANK”29.
In Sanskrit the formula DYAUS PITAR ("heavenly father”) represents a dual set of perfect
pentagrams.
In Germanic languages the 2-vowel words refer to a mixture of the Germanic deities TIVAR,
TIWAZ, TIWAS, TIVAS.
In Latin the river TIBER also refer to a king, an emperor and a praenomen.
Some scholars see a connection between Minos and the names of other ancient founder-
kings, such as Menes of Egypt, Mannus of Germany, and Manu of India,[6][7] and even
with Meon of Phrygia and Lydia (after him named Maeonia), Mizraim of Egypt in the
Book of Genesis and the Canaanite deity Baal.[8]
Liber ( LIBER)
“Liber” is the Latin root for many English words referring to freedom, such as
libertarianism, liberalism, liberty, Liberia ("free land"), and liberation. In this scope the
name LIBERIA may be based on the same idea as the name FRANCE.
Additionally LIBER (Liber) is the god of Roman mythology associated with the Greek god
Dionysus.
For a better etymology I suggest to compare both pentagrams “LIBER“ (free) and “FRANK” (free),
which both share the same 5 categories.
30 Source: liberal
Officially the etymology of the Latin word “LIBER“ is:
From Old Latin LOEBER, from Proto-Italic *LOUDEROS, from Proto-Indo-European
*h₁léwdʰeros, from *H₁LEWDʰ- (“people”). Cognate with Ancient Greek ἐλεύθερος
(eleútheros), Sanskrit र धत (ródhati), Dutch lieden, German Leute, Russian люди (ljudi,
“people”).
līber (feminine lībera, neuter līberum, comparative līberior, superlative līberrimus, adverb
līberē); first/second-declension adjective (nominative masculine singular in -er)
It is probable that the genesis of the name Tiber was pre-Latin, like the Roman name of
Tibur (modern Tivoli), and may be specifically Italic in origin. The same root is found
in the Latin praenomen Tiberius (TIBERIUS). There are also Etruscan variants of this
praenomen in Thefarie (borrowed from Faliscan *Tiferios, lit. '(He) from the Tiber' <
*Tiferis 'Tiber') and Teperie (via the Latin hydronym Tiber).[8][9]
The legendary king TIBERINUS (Tiberinus), ninth in the king-list of Alba Longa, was
said to have drowned in the river Albula, which was afterward called Tiberis.[8] The
myth may have explained a memory of an earlier, perhaps pre-Indo-European name for
the river, "white" (alba) with sediment, or "from the mountains" from pre-Indo-
European word "alba, albion" mount, elevated area.[10] Tiberis/Tifernus may be a pre-
Indo-European substrate word related to Aegean tifos "still water", Greek phytonym
τύφη a kind of swamp and river bank weed (Typha angustifolia), Iberian hydronyms
Tibilis, Tebro and Numidian Aquae Tibilitanae.[11] Yet another etymology is from
*dubri-, water, considered by Alessio as Sicel, whence the form ΘΎΒΡIΣ later Tiberis.
This root *dubri- is widespread in Western Europe e.g. Dover, Portus Dubris.[12] 32.
The river TIBER is located in Rome. The etymology may be derived from the Celtic
expression DUBRO "river" (compare Dover). Related: Tiburtine33.
Peter (PYOTR)
masc. proper name, 12c., from Old English Petrus (genitive Pet(e)res, dative Pet(e)re), from Latin
Petrus, from Greek Petros, literally "stone, rock" (see petrous).
petrous (adj.)
c. 1400, in anatomy, "very hard, dense," from Old French petros (Modern French petreux) and
directly from Latin petrosus "stony," from petra "rock," from Greek petra "rock, cliff, ledge, shelf of
rock, rocky ridge," a word of unknown etymology (Beekes says it is "probably Pre-Greek"). Used
of certain bones, especially of parts of the temporal bone.
34 father (n.)
35 liver (n.1)
3-Vowel words
The 3-vowel words seem to be concentrated on the sky-gods' names and the Frankish royal names,
which may be beginning with the name Clovis → (Ch-)LOUIS.
In Sanskrit the formula DYAUS PITAR ("heavenly father”) represents a dual set of perfect
pentagrams.
In Dutch the word NIEU(W)S may be interpreted as “N” (“not”) “ AIWS, ‘time, eternity’.
For the extension of the 3-vowel words I would have to add the imperfect words with 3 vowels:
• IÉU = “I”
• DIÉU = God
• DIÉU = I say
• SIÉU = I am
• RIÉU = I laugh
• VIÉU = I see
The Latin forms Diespiter, Dispiter ... together with the word dies 'day' point to the
generalization of a stem *dije-, whereas Iupiter, Iovis reflect [Proto-Italic] *djow~
(*DJOW). These can be derived from a single PIE paradigm for '(god of the) sky, day-
light', which phonetically split in two in [Proto-Italic] and yielded two new stems with
semantic specialization. [de Vaan]
Compare Greek Zeu pater, vocative of Zeus pater "Father Zeus;" Sanskrit DYAUS
PITAR "heavenly father." As the name of the brightest of the superior planets from late
13c. in English, from Latin (Iovis stella). The Latin word also meant "heaven, sky, air,"
hence sub Iove "in the open air." As god of the sky he was considered to be the
originator of weather, hence Jupiter Pluvius "Jupiter as dispenser of rain" 1704), used
jocularly from mid-19c.37

In the Alpine mountains from the centered city of Chur the pronouns expanded in four directions.
Each direction has its own central vowel E, O, A, H, but the pronouns are abbreviated from 3 to 2
letters :

Chur is known as the oldest town of the Switzerland and has been documented as the first episcopal
center at the northern side of the Alps (installed 450 AD). The name "chur" derives perhaps from
the Celtic kora or koria, meaning "tribe", or from the Latin CURIA. In the 10th century the patron is
named LUZIUS, in the 11th century FLORINUS.
Das Bistum Chur (episcopatus/diocesis Curiensis) gehörte spätestens ab 451 und wahrscheinlich
ununterbrochen bis zum Vertrag von Verdun 843 zum Erzbistum Mailand, danach zum Erzbistum Mainz
bis zu dessen Aufhebung 1803/1818. Seither ist es direkt dem Heiligen Stuhl unterstellt. Seine Patrone
sind Luzius (10. Jh.) bzw. Luzius und Florinus (seit dem 11. Jh.). Bischofssitz und Kathedrale befinden
sich auf dem Hof Chur. 41
Early settlement of episcopal control may indicate an influence of the Church in defining Ego-
pronouns. As a remarkable fact the Ego-pronouns around Chur seem to follow the same rules as
those on an enlarged scale: at the west-side we find “jeu”, which is also found in the Provencal
language. At the south-side we find the Sutsilvan “jou”, which governs Italy (Jupitter). At the east-
side we find the Jauer-language which abbreviates to“ja” - found in at Slavic countries in the east.42
Around the central episcopal city of Chur we may identify the same central vowels E, O, A, H of
the personal pronouns JÉU, JOU, JAU, EAU, EU, IH, .. :

42 The Fourth Vowel (generating Ego-pronouns from sets of vowels)
A simplified grammar
In the Provencal language the grammar seemed to be simplified by conjugations from a singular
letter “D” for saying, “S” for being, “R” for laughing, “V” for seeing or rather (in for the transfer
into English) VIÉU → “VIÉWING”.
