| Abstract: | Way back in 1971, J. Busuttil (1971) had already referred to Gozo as Gaulos or Gaudos among the Greeks, Gaulos or Gaulus among the Romans, and Gaul among the Carthaginians. The common view that both Greek and Roman names of Gozo derive from "Punic gwl' has been repeated by Sznycer (1972-3: 147), Teixidor (1974: no.73) and. recently, by Heltzer (1993:.198). |
