Tasos Neroutsos
Tasos Neroutsos (Greek: Τάσος Νερούτσος; 1826–1892) was a Greek physician and scholar.
Neroutsos was born in Athens in 1826. From 1848 to 1884 he studied medicine at the University of Munich. During his studies he corrected and translated into German the works of Lord Byron and Guilielmus Xylander regarding Albanians.[1] During the era before the Congress of Monastir, in which the final form of the Albanian alphabet was decided, he was among the Arvanite scholars who supported the use of the Latin alphabet. Neroutsos lived for most of his life in Alexandria, Egypt where he conducted Egyptological studies. He was the first to publish an archaeological review of the 1874 excavations of Hellenistic tombs in Alexandria.[2] Neroutsos died in 1892, while his family emigrated in the German Empire. His descendant Helga Neroutsos-Hartinger published his correspondence with Albanologist Gustav Meyer.
