ΑΣΥΡΛ-WhatCouldItMean?

Twitter!

A place you can see everyday a surprise or a brand-new subject that is interesting for you.

I saw today this pic under:

A pegasus and 5 letters on a ring. 

ΑΣΥΡΛ

The threadowner doesn't know what these "letters" mean and he wrote that he himself is looking for a hint.

I have made a proposal that we maybe read this like it is being written:
My fundamental idea: These were maybe Scythian words/letters. And Scythian was no Indoeuropean language. It could be a Asian/Turkish language.
Now to our script on the ring:


Α

ΣΥΡ

Λ

I must not force my imagination to recognize the middle 3 letters:

ΣΥΡ: SÜR-

Sür- is an ancient Turkish verb that is meaning to ride, to drive, to chase away.
Sürü is a noun derived from that verb meaning simply flock.
ΣΥΡ could be both.

Now it is last letter's turn:

Λ => It is a Greek 'L'.

And the first one ist the hardest one to figure out.

A => Kazim Mirsan would say, it is an AT. 
A very old Turkish "Thamga", a letter like a syllable, meaning simply 'horse'.

After these inputs we can try an assumption or two:

It could mean:

* A(t) SÜR(ü) L(e) = This horse is here to be ridden.

or

* A(t) SÜR(ü) (i)L: The land of the horse flocks.

I don't think it is a person whose name stand on this ring. The Greek equip the MEN with an "S" at the end.


An other relation to Middle Asia:
PEGASUS is very similar to TULPAR. What is Tulpar?

TULPAR is a winged horse, just like Pegasus. What is older? We can't say it. We can only say: They are the same.


Look at the pics below:
