Sicily (they used the Greek (or Phoenician?) alphabet but their language is undecifered), and were said to be a<br />

millet-growing people. The Trojans who fled from Troy to Sicily settled in that part of Sicily called themselves<br />

Elymi, after Elymus. Elymus (Greek Ἔλυµος, Elumos, Elymos; Elymnus in Strabo), was the natural son (or bastard<br />

son) of Anchises and brother of Eryx, one of the fleeing Trojans. With the aid of Aeneas they built the towns of<br />

Aegesta and Elymé (Elima).<br />

(http://wisplants.uwsp.edu/scripts/detail.asp?SpCode=ELYTRAsTRA). Elumos is also a term for a type of<br />

aulos, a Greek ‘two-piped’ reed wind instrument, possibly originating from Phrygian phrugiaulos. It is often<br />

mistranslated as flute. (Gramineae)<br />

See the relationship of elymus <strong>with</strong> Triptolemus, Τριπτόλεµος, threefold warrior, who taught the arts of<br />

agriculture to Lyncus, king of the Scythians. “Triptolemos is analysed by Janda (1998) as a Greek<br />

continuation of a variant of the epithet, *trigw-t-welumos, a "terpsimbrotos" compound "cracker of the<br />

enclosure", Greek (w)elumos referring to the casings of grain in Greek being descended from the same root<br />

*wel-. On such grounds, a rock or mountain *welos or *welumos, split by a heroic deity, liberating Dawn or<br />

the Sun is reconstructed for Proto-Indo-European mythology (the "Sun in the rock" myth, sometime also<br />

speculated to be connected <strong>with</strong> the making of fire from flintstone)”<br />

(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vala_(Vedic)) Triptolemus was one of the original priests of Demeter, and is<br />

shown in bas-relief receiving the gift of wheat to give to humanity.<br />
