Ah, Thanks for the revised transliteration! That makes more sense! Cool!

And J. Maxwell Miller, who, iirc, thought Jebus was a *different* place than Jerusalem, but still a real place.

Idea:
Version of the manga "Go! Go! Ackman" intended for specialists in Greek lyric poetry, called "Go! Go! Alcman".

Please, remix guys on Youtube – state clearly if you just AI'd "your" work into existence. Don't hide behind vague Youtube labels which could mean anything.
