Sicani (Ancient Italian, Mediterranean (Early Western World), ... Styles and Periods (hierarchy name))

 

Note: Ancient inhabitants of Sicily in the area west of the Gelas River. According to ancient Greek writers, the Sicani were the aboriginal inhabitants of central Sicily, as distinguished from the Siculi of eastern Sicily and the Elymi of western Sicily. Archaeologically there is no substantial difference between Sicani and Siculi (Sicels) in historical times, but the Greek historian Thucydides believed the Sicani to be Iberians from Spain who were driven by the invading Siculi into the central parts of the island.

Additional Notes:
Chinese (traditional) ..... 西西里島傑拉斯河(Gelas River)以西的古代居民。根據古希臘作家所述,西坎人是西西里中部的原住民,與西西里東部的西庫爾人和西部的艾利米人不同。考古學上,西坎人與西庫爾人(亦稱Sicels)的歷史時期並無實質差異,但希臘歷史學家修昔底德(Thucydides)相信,西坎人是來自西班牙的伊比利亞人(Iberians),被入侵的西庫爾人被驅趕至該島中央地區。 
Dutch ..... Oude bewoners van het gebied ten westen van de rivier de Gelas op Sicilië. Volgens klassieke Griekse schrijvers waren de Sicani de oorspronkelijke bewoners van centraal-Sicilië, zoals de Sicelen oost-Sicilië bewoonden en de Elymianen west-Sicilië. Archeologisch gezien is er in historische tijden geen wezenlijk verschil tussen Sicani en Sicelen, maar de Griekse historicus Thucydides nam aan dat de Sicani Iberiërs uit Spanje waren die door de invasie van de Sicelen naar het centrale deel van het eiland waren verdreven.
