The Oksywie culture is closely related to Przeworsk and all the peoples that emerged out off Wielbark and Przeworsk cultures were nothing but Germanic speaking.
When the Goths are mentioned by Tacitus, they are seen as Germanic, also when they had their dealings with the Markomanni in the first decades of the first century AD there is little to suggest that they were not Germanic like the Markomanni, and the Wielbark culture starts only in the first century BC.
There is considerable agreement that parts of the Przeworsk culture or of the contributors to this culture were Celts.

As such, any student of Islam—especially those in the West—need to be aware of the historical phenomenon of Orientalism, both as an academic pursuit and as a means of cultural exploitation.
This is certainly no distortion, since the academic study of the Oriental East by the Occidental West was often motivated—and often co-operated hand-in-hand— with the imperialistic aims of the European colonial powers.
Here, human civilizations, with their cultural forms, religions, hopes, aims, beliefs, prophets, sacred scriptures, and deities, are essentially plants that grow out of the earth, springing from their various seeds and soils, thriving for a time, and then withering away.
