    Great!!!

    I think the correct phrase might be " Solacium ex (or "e") solo". Solum is not ablative, so it can't follows ex.
    "Ex solo solacium" sounds good too. If you're not sure about terra or solo, why don't you use " Ex terrae solo solacium" ( solacium ex solo terrae, solacium ex terrae solo, terrae ex solo solacium (<- fine one!) )

    Talking ufff... I didn't practice since high school, but,....

    hummm.... I like that last one, but I think that calling a place "Solace from the foundations of land" sounds a bit.... excessive, don't u think? :rolleyes:

    I'd vote for "Solacium ex terra" (terra is the ablative case from terra-ae), keeping the nominative in first position to make it more understandable, if you mean "Joy by the land" (coming from it, joy achieved by enjoying the land)

    ¡Maxima Salus!
