RUTULI

The root of the name of the tribe "Rutulians", that Aeneas met in Lazio, is not translatable from the Kartvelian point of view. But the Kartvelian ending of the adjective "-uli" in this name should be noted.

UPDATE: although, why not associate it with the Megrelian რუტუ-რუტუ (rutu-rutu) meaning "silly talk" or "gossiping"?
