The BOOK [Stick] of JUDAH

PREFACE

This record evaluates historical knowledge, as it relates to: ---- The BOOK [Stick] of JUDAH
Information gleaned from social contexts, both secular and religious, are reviewed, using
modern genealogical research specialist standards: to properly reconstruct and correctly
portray real historical lives and family pedigrees.  Cultural, religious and family tradition,
(their stated facts and viewpoints), are surveyed within given ancient contexts of primary
and secondary record sources, as handed down for the benefit of our modern generation.

GENEALOGIES:
A Master Number beginning with three digits is given to the direct line
descending stem.  All other descending lineages are ordered according to
where they connect into the direct line of descent as sons or daughters.
They have a dash (-) to show the connection.  The Numbers are arranged
by time of birth in the family, where possible, with the direct descendant
being placed where he or she belongs by order of birth.  In cases of long
and questionable pedigrees, the lineage is shown descending down, but
with no numbering system attached.  Added commentary is author's opinion.

The Children of 024: JACOB - ISRAEL
024-004:   DIRECT DESCENDANT (a son) 025: The BOOK [Stick] of JUDAH

Research Notes:
A.  Ezek. 37: 16-19  Moreover, thou son of man [Ezekiel], take thee one ^astick,
     and ^bwrite upon it, For ^cJudah, and for the children of Israel his companions:
     then take another stick, and ^dwrite upon it, For ^eJoseph, the ^fstick of Ephraim,
     and for all the house of Israel his companions: And join them one to another
     into one stick; and they shall become ^aone in thine hand.  And when the children
     of thy people shall speak unto thee, saying, Wilt thou not shew us ^awhat thou
     meanest by these?  Say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will
     take the stick of ^aJoseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of
     Israel his fellows, and will put them with him, even with the stick of Judah,
     and make them one stick, and they shall be one in mine hand.  1 Ne. 13: 37-42
     And ^ablessed are they who shall seek to bring forth my ^bZion at that day, for
     they shall have the ^cgift and the ^dpower of the Holy Ghost; and if they ^eendure
     unto the end they shall be ^flifted up at the last day, and shall be saved in the
     everlasting ^gkingdom of the Lamb; and whoso shall ^hpublish peace, yea, tidings
     of great joy, how beautiful upon the mountains shall they be.  And it came to
     pass that I beheld the remnant of the seed of my brethren, and also the ^abook
     of the Lamb of God, which had proceeded forth from the mouth of the Jew,
     that it came forth from the Gentiles ^bunto the remnant of the seed of my brethren.
     And after it had come forth unto them I beheld ^aother ^bbooks, which came forth
     by the power of the Lamb, from the Gentiles unto them, unto the ^cconvincing
     of the Gentiles and the remnant of the seed of my brethren, and also the Jews
     who were scattered upon all the face of the earth, that the records of the prophets
     and of the twelve apostles of the Lamb are ^dtrue.  And the angel spake unto me,
     saying: These ^alast records, which thou hast seen among the Gentiles, shall
       ^bestablish the truth of the ^cfirst, which are of the ^dtwelve apostles of the Lamb,
     and shall make known the plain and precious things which have been taken
     away from them; and shall make known to all kindreds, tongues, and people,
     that the Lamb of God is the Son of the Eternal Father, and the ^eSavior of the
     world; and that all men must come unto him, or they cannot be saved.  And
     they must come according to the words which shall be established by the mouth
     of the Lamb; and the words of the Lamb shall be made known in the records of
     thy seed, as well as in the ^arecords of the twelve apostles of the Lamb; where-
     fore they both shall be established in ^bone; for there is ^cone God and one
       ^dShepherd over all the earth.  And the time cometh that he shall manifest
     himself unto all nations, both unto the ^aJews and also unto the Gentiles;
     and after he has manifested himself unto the Jews and also unto the Gentiles,
     then he shall manifest himself unto the Gentiles and also unto the Jews,
     and the ^blast shall be first, and the ^cfirst shall be last.

B.  The ancient Books of the Bible, compared with Mormon Archaeology,
     invalidate the documentary hypothesis theories, traditionally known as:
     J, E, P, and D; for the Torah and the Deuteronomy history, from Joshua
     to Kings.  Some modern historians incorrectly state that the Torah
     was gradually recorded as the Hebrew Bible, between the 5th century
     B.C. and the 2nd century B.C.  Clearly, internal source evidence from
     The Pearl of Great Price, the Bible and the Book of Mormon, all suggest
     primary source documents, or copies thereof, going back to the time of
     Adam and (Eve - the Mother of all Living), were readily available to
     Moses, who then wrote or copied them for himself and other Israelites.
     The list of Biblical figures identified in extra-Biblical sources is compelling.
     Additional validation of the Bible, as a surviving primary source document,
     is made by the Joseph Smith, Jr.: Translation of the Bible.  Words added
     and corrections made, restore the original formation and sense of ancient
     scribes and prophets, including technical details from Genesis to Revelation.
     Joseph Smith, Jr. said, "I believe the Bible as it read when it came from the
     pen of the original writers. Ignorant translators, careless transcribers, or
     designing and corrupt priests have committed many errors."

C.  Modern claims of genealogical attachment to the biblical
     (Old Testament) records are noted, with remarks.

025:   JUDA - JUDAH - JUDAS (the son of JACOB - ISRAEL)

Family of Juda - Judah - Judas:
Judah: Judah

Marriage:
Gen. 38: 12  The daughter of a certain Canaanite, whose name was Shuah;
[Prostitute relationship with] Tamar, by whom twin sons.  "Joseph's half-brother
Judah had three sons by a Canaanite wife named Shuah and twin sons by
Tamar, whose ancestry is unknown (Genesis 38:2–30).  Of the half-Canaanite
sons, only one (Shelah) lived long enough to have posterity, but his mtDNA
would be unlike that of his half-brothers, Pharez and Zarah, unless their mothers
were sisters (Genesis 46:12; Numbers 26:19–21).  From Pharez descended
Salmon, who married the Canaanite woman Rahab, who had been spared
with her father's household during the Israelite destruction of the city of
Jericho in Joshua's day.  Their son was Boaz, who married the Moabitess
Ruth, who became the great-grandmother of King David and, consequently,
of all the kings of Judah and of Jesus Christ himself (Ruth 4:18–22;
Matthew 1:2–16).  While most of the kings of Judah from whom Christ is
descended married women of the same tribe or of other Israelite tribes,
this is not true of all of them.  For example, Rehoboam, son of Solomon,
was born of a woman named Naamah, who was an Ammonitess (1 Kings 14:21,
31; 2 Chronicles 12:13).  Genesis 40:10 informs us that Simeon had a Canaanite
wife, but nothing is said of the other wives of Jacob's sons or their origins,
although it seems likely that they also married outside Abraham's kin group.
The children and grandchildren of Jacob who are mentioned in the biblical
account number seventy, but this does not include daughters and granddaughters.
Although nothing is specifically said on the matter, it is not unreasonable to
assume that Jacob's people included servants and their families as well.⁹
One thing, however, seems certain: all of Jacob's grandchildren inherited
their mtDNA from their mothers, who were likely non-Israelite."

A. D&C 113: 1-6  The ^aStem of Jesse is Christ; the ^arod is a servant in the hands

     house of Joseph, on whom there is laid much ^bpower; the ^aroot is a ^adescendant
     of Jesse, as well as of Joseph, unto whom rightly belongs the ^bpriesthood, and
     the ^ckeys of the kingdom, for an ^densign, and for the gathering of my people
     in the ^elast days.  D&C 85: 3-11  . . . And it shall come to pass that I, the Lord
     God, will send one mighty and strong, holding the scepter of power in his hand,
     clothed with light for a covering, whose mouth shall utter words, eternal words;
     while his bowels shall be a fountain of truth, to set in ^aorder the house of God,
     and to arrange by ^blot the ^cinheritances of the saints whose names are found,
     and the names of their fathers, and of their children, enrolled in the book of
     the law of God . . .  D&C 103: 15-20  Behold, I say unto you, the ^aredemption
     of Zion must needs come by power; Therefore, I will raise up unto my people
     a man, who shall ^alead them like as Moses led the children of Israel.  For ye
     are the children of Israel, and of the ^aseed of Abraham, and ye must needs
     be ^bled out of ^cbondage by power, and with a stretched-out arm.  And as your
     fathers were ^aled at the first, even so shall the redemption of Zion be.  There-
     fore, let not your hearts faint, for I say not unto you as I said unto your fathers:
     Mine ^aangel shall go up before you, but not my ^bpresence.  But I say unto you:
     Mine ^aangels shall go up before you, and also my ^bpresence, and in time ye
     shall ^cpossess the goodly land.

Solomon

Marriages:
D&C 132: 38  David also received ^amany wives and concubines,
and also Solomon and Moses my servants, as also many others
of my servants, from the beginning of creation until this time;
and in nothing did they sin save in those things which they received
not of me.

1 Kgs. 11: 1-13  But king ^aSolomon loved many ^bstrange ^cwomen,
together with the ^ddaughter of ^ePharaoh, women of the Moabites,
Ammonites, Edomites, Zidonians, and Hittites; . . . Solomon clave
unto these in love.  And he had seven hundred wives, princesses,
and three hundred concubines: and his ^awives turned away his heart.
For it came to pass, when Solomon was old, that his ^awives turned
away his heart after other gods: and his heart was not perfect with
the LORD his God, ^bas was the heart of David his father. . . . And
likewise did he for all his strange wives, which burnt incense and
sacrificed unto their gods.  Wherefore the LORD said unto Solomon,
Forasmuch as this is done of thee, and thou hast not kept my ^acovenant
and my statutes, which I have commanded thee, I will surely rend
the ^bkingdom from thee, and will give it to thy servant.

Research Notes:
A.  Proverbs [Book of Proverbs].  The Song of Solomon "is not inspired scripture."

B.  As noted in Ancient and Medieval Jewish History, edited by
     Leon A. Feldman, (1972), it cannot be denied that over the centuries,
     Palestine exported not only its excellent fruits, wine, and grapes but also
     grains.  It is known that there were large imports of manufactured articles
     and the importation of metals was a significant part of the economy.  From
     an economic standpoint, since Palestine paid for all these imports with the
     excess of its agricultural production, maximum return on the dollar
     [figuratively speaking], was also a key criteria in ancient times.  The
     population of Ancient Israel, circa 1000 B.C., has been approximated as
     Judah (450,000), Israel (1,350,000) and all of ancient Israel (1,800,000),
     with conquered peoples (3,000,000).  The City of Jerusalem was estimated
     as having a 15,000 to 20,000 total population.

C.  "Patterns of Mobility Among Ancient Near Eastern Craftsmen", by Carlo Zaccagnini,
     of the University of Bologna, Journal of Near Eastern Studies, Vol. 42, Number 4
     (October 1983), notes the sending of specialized workers is well attested in
     the framework of the diplomatic relations of kings of the Late Bronze Age.
     The skilled workers were viewed as prestige goods, strictly bound to the
     organization of the temple and palace economic structure and are a direct
     consequence of the process of surplus accumulation.  Usually, the juridical
     status of artisans in metallurgy, etc., was of free, lifetime administrative status.
     Construction on the Temple at Jerusalem was completed circa 991 B.C.
     Phoenician lettering has been found on the bottom layer of stones, near the S.E.
     corner of the Jerusalem Temple Mount [The Holy Temple Revisited, (1990)].

D.  The Jewish merchant class followed King Solomon's example
     and cemented local protection of their Diaspora group, by entering
     into marriages and having concubine contract agreements with local
     royalty and families in positions of authority.  King Solomon had at sea
     a navy of Tharshish with the navy of Hiram [King of Tyre, the capital
     of ancient Phoenicia]: once in three years came the navy of Tharshish,
     bringing gold, and silver, ivory and apes, and peacocks.

E.  David W. Tandy mentions in Warriors into Traders, The Power of the
     Market in Early Greece, published 1997, that the tenth century [B.C.]
     relationship between Hiram and Solomon shows Hiram sending supplies
     of cedar and fir trees, gold and even laborers, and Solomon reciprocating
     with thousands of measures of wheat each year and other gifts.  This is
     corroborated by an early Egyptian historical document showing also the
     import of "forty ships of cedar logs", during the reign of Sneferu.
     When the Temple was completed, Solomon gave Hiram, King of Tyre,
     twenty "cities" in Galilee.  Hiram, though displeased, reciprocated by
     sending King Solomon six score talents of gold.  Dynastic contacts of
     Gentile Royalty with the priesthood royalty and military descendants of
     Abraham, are noted in the national history of the Jews, back to the time
     of Balaam.  The concept of the God - Man Messiah: "there shall come
     a ^bStar out of Jacob, and a Sceptre shall rise out of Israel", was conveyed
     through commercial enterprise to the various Gentile Nations, the source
     from which the Greeks created their own fabulous legends: historic fiction
     handed down within Greek Mythology.  Herodotus re-dates the classical
     Greek connections as historical, no earlier than four hundred years prior
     to his lifetime, or circa 1000 to 900 B.C.:

     "Whence the gods severally sprang, whether or no they had
     all existed from eternity, what forms they bore- these are
     questions of which the Greeks knew nothing until the other day,
     so to speak.  For Homer and Hesiod were the first to compose
     Theogonies [Theogony], and give the gods their epithets, to allot
     them their several offices and occupations, and describe their forms;
     and they lived but four hundred years before my time, as I believe.
     As for the poets who are thought by some to be earlier than these,
     they are, in my judgment, decidedly later writers.  In these matters
     I have the authority of the priestesses of Dodona for the former
     portion of my statements; what I have said of Homer and Hesiod
     is my own opinion."  Thus the New Testament warning, "Neither give
     heed to ^afables and endless genealogies, which ^bminister ^cquestions,
     rather than godly ^dedifying which is in faith: so do."  Ephesus. Turkey

F.  Keith Muckelroy, in Vol. 47, (Dec 1981), Proceedings of the Prehistoric Society,
     notes the witness for past trade exhibited by wreck-sites is in many respects
     superior to any other source; suggesting, in a very real sense they are
     'trade frozen in time'.  Importantly, "the evidence suggests a European-
     wide network of bronze exchange which operated separately from local
     arrangements for production and distribution."

     The long relationship between England and France is validated in Vol. III
     of An Economic Survey of Ancient Rome,  (1959), under the section concerning
     Roman Britain mining and minerals, the subject Tin.  It appears that west
     Cornwall [England] was well populated and in close touch with Brittany
     and Ireland, and after 1000 B.C., "they became much closer, and local finds
     demonstrate frequent imports, . . . these include objects from Gaul, the
     Pyrenees, Numidia, Greece, and Cyprus."  Irish gold ornaments, obtained
     by excavations at Gaza, on the Mediterranean Sea near the Sinai Peninsula,
     have been dated to circa 800 B.C., as well as much earlier in time period.

     Ruaidhrí Ó Flaithbheartaigh, erroneously dates the Milesian invasion
     of Ireland, circa 1000 B.C., or about the time of King Solomon.
     According to M. Salomon Reinach, a well-known French anthropologist,
     (see L'Anthropologie, Vol. X, 1899, page 397), there was in 1000 B.C.
     an overland trade in tin between the British Islands and Thrace, or
     Macedonia.  Writing was known to many branches of the Celts.  The
     earliest archeological evidence are finds in present day Italy that date
     to the 9th century B.C.  The Sea of Thrace: "The Thracian Bronze Age
     was similar to that of Mycenaean Greece, and the Thracians had
     developed high forms of music and poetry, but their savage warfare
     led the Greeks to consider them barbarians.  Many Greek colonies—
     e.g., Byzantium on the Hellespont and Tomi (modern Constana) on
     the Black Sea—were founded in Thrace by c. 600 B.C.  The Greeks
     exploited Thracian gold and silver mines, and they recruited Thracians
     for their infantry.  Thrace was reduced to vassalage by Persia from
     c. 512 B.C. to 479 B.C., and Persian customs were introduced."

Family Information:
geography (location):
Mattaniah - Zedekiah was a resident of Jerusalem, who was
taken into Babylonian captivity and died blind in Babylon.

Zedekiah's only surviving son Mulek, escaped from Jerusalem and became the
founder of the City of Mulek, located on the eastern side of the Continental Divide
watershed, that runs from the Seward Peninsula in Alaska, down to the tip of
South America.  It is crossed at the narrow neck of land by the Panama Canal.
The Hemispheric Geography Model of the Book of Mormon, assigns to the isthmus
of Panama, the designation of the "narrow neck of land".  The "land northward"
is indicated as being North America and the "land southward" being South America.
Consider the underwater extension of the coastal plain, called the continental
shelf.  Within the Book of Mormon record is testimony of catastrophic alterations
of land and sea locations, during the approximate three hour time period designated
as occurring during the death of Jesus Christ.  The continental shelf is an underwater
extension of the coastal plain, which would have been involved in the burial of cities
in water; also, mountains and hills and other land deformities occurred, simultaneously.
Using the current extensions of the Central and South American continental shelf,
(as part of the depressed areas of surface land masses occurring at the death of Jesus;
those areas which swallowed up cities), would anciently position the narrow neck of
land, up a little farther north into Central America.  Northern South America, Central
America, and the Gulf of Mexico coasts must have been more gentle in slope, land
surface and height, with apparent larger coastal plains that extended farther into the
Gulf of Mexico, at the coming of Mulek.  Furthermore, at the coming of Christ to the
American Continent, the Book of Mormon testifies that chosen witnesses lived to old
age and the population as a whole was healed; thus, in top medical condition. 
Evidence is given stating a continuation of a superior unified society that lasted
for hundreds of years, beginning with an initial surviving group of many thousands. 
With such ideal conditions, including constant capacity to maintain ideal health
conditions, as well as the maximum coupling of all posterity (low to zero infant mortality)
and extended life cycles, the population growth of this Christian Nation magnifies
into mega millions of individuals, out migrating far beyond local geographic
Mesoamerica, into all regions of South, Central and North America: the land of Zion.

         - Lehi’s Family Tree
           In the Book of Mormon, (another Testament of Jesus Christ), the
           family of Lehi and his associates came from Jerusalem circa 600 B.C.,
           taking a route near the seacoasts, down the area of the Red or Arabian
           Sea.  Anciently, there were spice routes running parallel to both sides
           of the Red Sea, by which way merchants brought their products to Egypt
           for use in the art of embalming their dead and for burning in ritual and
           domestic contexts.  [Oxford Journal of Archaeology, Vol. 13, No. 2,
           July 1994, "Incense, Camels and Collared Rim Jars: Desert Trade
           Routes and Maritime Outlets in the Second Millennium, pages 121-148,
           with the proposed incense trade routes shown in Figure 11, page 132.]
           The prophet Lehi and his group, in particular his son Nephi [Nephi],
           built boats and traveled across the Pacific Ocean.

           Lehi belonged to an elite Jewish merchant class.  He possessed gold,
           silver, tents and other precious things, suggesting commercial knowledge
           in the transportation of goods and services.  Lehi was of the House of Joseph
           in Egypt, as was Laban [Laban].  Laban had in his possession, the record
           of the Jews and the genealogy of the forefathers written upon brass plates.
           Laban was a mighty man [high military officer of the Jerusalem region],
           who commanded fifty servants [soldiers] on a regular basis.  He could be
           called upon in time of emergency to lead tens of thousands in military
           combat ("Laban and his fifty, yea, or even than his tens of thousands"). 
           Laban associated with the elite leaders of Jerusalem, personally eating
           and drinking with the Elders of the City.

           The untimely demise of this chief military leader and record keeper was
           discovered under suspicious circumstances: the finding of the family
           property of Lehi in Laban's household possessions, as well as the complete
           disappearance of two prominent Jerusalem families.  An alert would have
           gone out to every possible location, from the highest quarters of Jerusalem,
           to recover the Jewish national heritage: The Brass Plates of Laban.  The
           Plates contained the five books of Moses in the original, giving an account
           of the creation of the world, and also of Adam and Eve.  There was also a
           record of the Jews from the beginning to the commencement of the reign
           of Zedekiah, King of Judah.  Lehi could not go due west from Jerusalem,
           as there were numerous Jewish colonists in the North African region, part
           of Eretz Israel [The Babylonian Talmud, Vol. 8, Seder Nashim, Chapter I,
           Gittin, pages 1, 26-27].  Lehi came from Jerusalem, taking a wilderness
           escape route, near the Arabian seacoasts, down by the area of the Red Sea.

     Peter Martyr d'Anghiera (1456/7-1526), Medieval eyewitness, wrote
     De Orbe Novo Decades, of which the Fourth Decade is addressed to
     Pope Leo X; included in The Decipherment of Ancient Maya Writings,
     c 2001.  Peter Martyr d'Anghiera was of noble descent who, at court,
     "served as a preceptor for noble children . . . [in] the Spanish monarchy
     . . . and royal chronicler in 1520 . . ."   In the province of Yucatan,
     "A large number of this manner of books or notebooks were found by
     the conquerors when they entered that province; and certain priests
     that entered to preach the holy gospel when that province had just
     been conquered burned all or most, . . ."  [Clearly, many early Christian
     missionaries destroyed Indian manuscripts in Yucatan and elsewhere.]

     "We have said that these people have books, . . . they write upon are
     some sheets of a certain thin inner tree bark . . .there is a hard cloth
     that separates the outer layers, like nets with holes and narrow mesh,
     and they besmear them with a strong pitch.  . . . From little tablets of
     fig wood are made the books that the administrators of the great houses
     carry with them to the markets, and with a metal bodkin they jot down
     what they buy, to erase it when they have transferred it to their account
     books. . . ."

     "The characters are very different from ours: . . . they greatly resemble
     Egyptian forms.  Between the lines are marked out figures of men and
     animals, principally of kings and magnates, by which one can believe
     that there are there written the deeds of each king's ancestors, as we
     see done in our own time, that often in general histories and in fabulous
     codices the printers insert figures of those who did what is being recounted,
     to stimulate those who might want to buy them."

     "Also, the upper tablets are agreeably arranged with wood; when these
     books are closed, it appears that they are no different from ours.  Also, it is
     believed that they write in their books the laws, sacrifices, ceremonies, rites,
     astronomical annotations, and certain computations, and manners and times
     of planting."

     Tomas Lopez Medel (1509-82), wrote ca. 1565 "And this manner of letters
     and writing was not understood unless learned, and it was known only . . . the
     priests and some caciques."

     Similar to  the Jews, "They [the priests] taught the sons of other priests,
     and the second sons of the lords, who took them for this purpose from childhood,
     if they noticed they had an inclination for this profession."   Diego de Landa
     "believed that Native American books were tainted by superstition, and he
     readily tells how (written ca. 1566) they were burned."

053:   DAUGHTERS [The Biblical TAMAR] (daughters of MATTANIAH - ZEDEKIAH)

Family of the Unidentified - Possible daughters
of [King] Mattaniah - Zedekiah [The Biblical Tamar]:
Jewish Biblical patterns within the Irish pedigrees are found
in the data concerning Tamar Tephi.  Worship of the Jewish
One God concept turns into Celtic Idol Worship.  Zedekiah,
last King of Judah (597-586 B.C.), means "my justice is Yahweh",
or "The Lord (is) righteousness".  [Mattaniah].  Irish Tea, is listed
as the daughter of Lughaidh [LIGHT or RADIANCE], the son of
Ioth, son of Breoghan, a son of Bratha [judgment, gu bràth, for ever
(pron. gu bràch) "till Judgment", so Irish, Old Irish bráth, judgment,
Welsh brawd, Middle Breton breut, Gaulish bratu-, *brâtu-; *brâ,
*bera, judge, decide . . .] [Jer. 43: 6-7  Even men, and women,
and children, and the king’s daughters, and every person that
Nebuzar-adan the captain of the guard had left with Gedaliah
the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan, and Jeremiah the prophet,
and Baruch the son of Neriah.  So they came into the land of Egypt:
for they obeyed not the voice of the Lord: thus came they even
to Tahpanhes.]  Chapter 2: The Buried Cities of Ancient Egypt
from Pharaohs Fellahs and Explorers. by Amelia Edwards.

Marriage:
"Tea, daughter of Lughaidh, son of Ith, whom Eremhon married
in Spain, to the repudiation of Odhbha, was the Tea who requested
of Eremhon a choice hill, as her dower, in whatever place she should
select it, that she might be interred therein, and that her mound and
her gravestone might be thereon raised, and where every prince ever
to be born of her race should dwell.  The guarantees who undertook
to execute this for her were Amhergin Gluingeal and Emhear Finn.
The hill she selected was Druim Caein, i.e. Teamhair.  It is from her
it was called, and in it was she interred."

This pattern of thought, in Middle Eastern historical tradition, is reflected
by Dido - Elissa (Queen of Carthage).  Elissa asked the local inhabitants
for a small bit of land for a temporary refuge until she could continue
her journeying, only as much land as could be encompassed by an oxhide.
They agreed.  Elissa cut the oxhide into fine strips so that she had enough
to encircle an entire nearby hill, which was therefore afterwards named
Byrsa "hide".  Jewish marriage to outside royalty connections is reflected
in the Book of Esther, in the third year of Ahasuerus [Xerxes I], who ruled
from 486 to 465 B.C.  Xerxes was the son of Darius I of Persia, a direct line
descendant of Teispes of Anshan; listed on the family tree as the great-
grandfather of Cyrus the Great.  The genealogy of Mordecai, who was
the son of Jair, the son of Shimei, the son of Kish, a Benjamite, attests to
the fact that the Tribe of Benjamin had obtained influence over time,
within the courts of the Persian Empire; yet hiding their heritage identity.

The Targum Sheni gives Mordecai's genealogy in more detail, as follows:
"Mordechai, son of Ya'ir, son of Shim'i, son of Shmida, son of Baana,
son of Eila, son of Micah, son of Mephibosheth, son of Jonathan, son
of Saul, son of Kish, son of Aviel, son of Tzror, son of Bechorath, son
of Aphiah, son of Sh'charim, son of Uziah, son of Sheshak, son of
Michael, son of Elyael, son of Amihud, son of Shephatya, son of Psuel,
son of Pison, son of Malikh, son of Jerubaal, son of Yerucham, son of
Chananya, son of Zavdi, son of Elpo'al, son of Shimri, son of Zecharya,
son of Merimoth, son of Hushim, son of Sh'chora, son of 'Azza, son of
Gera, son of Benjamin, son of Jacob the firstborn, whose name is
called Israel."  "And he brought up Hadassah, that is, Esther, his uncle's
daughter: for she had neither father nor mother, and the maid was fair
and beautiful; whom Mordecai, when her father and mother were dead,
took for his own daughter."

{taw-mawr'} is from an unused root meaning to be erect; TWOT - 2523;
n m AV - palm tree 12; 12.  In relation to Irish genealogies is Biblical
Tarah [Tarih] to geographical Teamhair (Tara), as well as to Nahor's
daughter Tipa with Tephi or Tea, as in Biblical Tiphsah or Thapsacus.
Thus, Biblical Tamar of Tahpanhes [Daphnae - "Castle of the Jew's
Daughter"], transformed into Irish records, is Tamar Tephi: an erect
stone over the grave of Tea; Temair is Tea Mur, "the Wall of Tea".
The Book of Invasions: Lebor Gabála Érenn.  Irish commentary relates
to the historical evidence about the allies of Egyptian Pharaoh Necho II,
the Carians, described by Herodotos as being of Minoan descent.  Carians
were highly trusted security, anciently protecting the child king Joash:
[In the seventh year of Athaliah's reign, Jehoiada the priest summoned
the commanders, the Carite mercenaries, and the guards to come to
the Temple of the Lord.]  Psamtik I, had his daughter Nitocris I adopted;
he was the father of Necho II.  Psamtik I established a garrison of foreign
mercenaries at Daphnae, mostly Carians and Ionian Greeks (Herodotus
ii. 154).  These elite guards would later be able to protect the "Castle
of the Jew's Daughter"; i.e., the daughters of Zedekiah, who were also,
by Irish record sources, connected to, or "adopted" into Egyptian Royalty.
Necho II was father of Psamtik II; grandfather of Apries, who had a  sister
Ankhnesneferibre, a political adoption as the new God's Wife of Amun.

[It was the Hebrews that adopted the Egyptian religion: Jeremiah 44 - 46.
Then all the men which knew that their wives had burned incense unto
other gods, and all the women that stood by, a great multitude, even all
the people that dwelt in the land of Egypt, in Pathros, answered Jeremiah,
saying, As for the word that thou hast spoken unto us in the name of the Lord,
we will not hearken unto thee.  But we will certainly do whatsoever thing
goeth forth out of our own mouth, to burn incense unto the queen of heaven,
and to pour out drink offerings unto her, as we have done, we, and our fathers,
our kings, and our princes, in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem:
for then had we plenty of victuals, and were well, and saw no evil.  But since we
left off to burn incense to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings
unto her, we have wanted all things, and have been consumed by the sword
and by the famine.  And when we burned incense to the queen of heaven,
and poured out drink offerings unto her, did we make her cakes to worship her,
and pour out drink offerings unto her, without our men?   Tara was the center
of the high kings of Ireland, where elaborate rites occurred between future high
kings of Tara and the goddess Medb.  Lia Fáil was thought to be magical: when
the rightful High King of Ireland put his feet on it, the stone was said to roar in joy.
The stone is also credited with the power to rejuvenate the king and also to endow
him with a long reign.  This shows knowledge of drugs and Egyptian burial ideology
conveyed to Ireland.  "There are many hints and suggestions in the fragments of
ancient Irish history that have come down to us of the former existence of a matriarchate
throughout the country; indeed it is evident that the early historians were much puzzled
by what seemed to them an anomaly, and laboured to invent explanations of some of
the relevant facts which they recorded.  It is noteworthy that all the famous assembly-
places and palaces of Ireland -- such as Tara, Emain Macha, Tlachtga, Tailltiu, etc.
-- had traditions attaching to them ascribing their foundation or inauguration to women."

Note carefully that women were making offerings without "our men".  In other
words, the Hebrews in Egypt, many who had lost their husbands in war, had
become core pagan, (as pagan as the records in Ireland show), declaring allegiance
as the "daughter of Pharaoh"; even though the Hebrew and Egyptian records validate
their physical ancestry was Hebrew.  Egyptian links in Strabo on the Land of the Jews.
"O thou daughter dwelling in Egypt, furnish thyself to go into captivity: for Noph shall be
waste and desolate without an inhabitant.  The daughter of Egypt shall be confounded;
she shall be delivered into the hand of the people of the north."  This does not suggest
that Jeremiah went to Ireland, or was involved in any way with the pagan Hebrew
women, after they rejected his suggestions on how to conduct themselves; becoming
(adopted) pagan daughters of the queen of heaven.  Thus Biblical Tamar of Tahpanhes
[Daphnae - "Castle of the Jew's Daughter"], transformed into Irish records, is Tamar Tephi:
an erect stone over the grave of Tea; Temair is Tea Mur, "the Wall of Tea".]  Ezekiel 30
. . . At Tehaphnehes also the day shall be darkened, when I shall break there the yokes
of Egypt: and the pomp of her strength shall cease in her: as for her, a cloud shall cover
her, and her daughters shall go into captivity. . . . And I will scatter the Egyptians among
the nations, and will disperse them through the countries. [Daughters: blood or allegiance.]

One important word in the Carian language is gela, translated king.
Ancient Languages of Asia Minor notes "The largest number of Carian
texts consist of tomb inscriptions and graffiti left by Carian mercenaries
in Egypt, dating from the seventh to the fifth centuries BC. " Indication of
Hebrew influence is found in right to left writings in Egypt and left to right
in Caria, proper.  Hebrew Royalty [biblical] and Carians connected in both
ancient Israel and in Egypt. Local Turkish Caria: Geyre.  Míl Espáine, his
given name was Golam or Galamh.  The Tyrrhenian [Tirrén] Sea is part
of the Mediterranean Sea off the western coast of Italy.  It is bounded by
Corsica and Sardinia (west), Tuscany, Lazio, Campania, and Calabria (east),
and Sicily (south).  Gela (Sicily) founded around 688 BC by colonists from
Rhodes and Crete.  Noting another important word in the Carian language
is banda, translated victory.  eDIL Electronic Dictionary of the Irish Language
translates banda as womanly.  Ireland itself was known in ancient times
as 'the island of Banda of the women' (Condren, 1989).  Rivers were also
identified with Ireland's goddess culture.  Exploring the Celtic Narrative

Cin Drom Snechta:  Historians say that there were exiles of Hebrew
women in Erinn at the coming of the sons of Milesius, who had been
driven by a sea tempest into the ocean by the Tirrén Sea.  They were
in Erinn before the sons of Milesius.  They said, however, to the sons
of Milesius [who, it would appear, pressed marriage on them], that
they preferred their own country, and that they would not abandon
it without receiving dowry for alliance with them.  It is from this
circumstance that it is the men that purchase wives in Erinn for ever,
whilst it is the husbands that are purchased by the wives throughout
the world besides.  Change of political power and out migration to other
areas occurs when Apries attempted to protect Libya from incursions by
Dorian Greek invaders.  His efforts here backfired spectacularly as his
forces were mauled by the Greek invaders.  When the defeated army
returned home, a civil war broke out between the indigenous Egyptian
army troops and foreign mercenaries in the Egyptian army.

Isaiah was a prophet in the 8th-century BC Kingdom of Judah. His prediction
concerning female mutilation is time period relevant.   Isaiah 3:17 reads,
in regard to the daughters of Zion, "the Lord will uncover their pot."  Strabo
notes the successors of Moses, from superstition arose cliterodectomy; this
debilitating practice formerly introduced within ancient Egyptian conquests.
Thus, compelling evidence from Egyptian practices, that Hebrew women fled
to Ireland under Carian influence, as a benefit to both groups, to escape from
local power conflicts.  "Daphnae was supposed to have been built in the time
of the 26th dynasty in about 664 BC and existed until about 565 BC."  In Ireland,
women had more respect than in continental Europe or the Middle Eastern area.
Ireland itself was known in ancient times as 'the island of Banda of the women'.

Alyattes of Lydia, fourth king of the Mermnad dynasty.  His reign lasted from
circa 600 to 560; his father before him also fought with the Milesians.  Alyattes'
custom each year was to invade Milesian territory when the crops were ripe,
marching in to the music of pipes, harps, and treble and tenor oboes.  On arrival
he never destroyed or burned the houses  of the country, or pulled their doors off,
but left them unmolested.  He would merely destroy the trees and [seize the] crops,
and then retire. The reason for this was the Milesian command of the sea, which
made it useless for his army to attempt a regular siege; and he refrained from
demolishing houses in order that the Milesians, having somewhere to live, might
continue to work the land and sow their seed, with the result that he himself would
have something to plunder each time he invaded the country.  He employed this
strategy for eleven consecutive years, during which the Milesians suffered two
serious defeats, one in the neighborhood of the harbor district in their own country,
the other in the plain of the Meander.

The Carians in Egypt were cut off from their homeland and the Hebrew women,
having become the "daughters of Egypt", were also cut off from their homeland.
The Carians, with connections via Carthage to the North Sea, were driven out of
North Africa; first into the Iberian region; from which, as mercenaries, they took
over Ireland from local kings who had broken key trade arrangements, by murder
and warfare.

Why Dowries? (pdf):  In ancient Near Eastern civilizations, ancient Greece,
thirteenth-century Byzantium, medieval western Europe, Arab Islam,
Japan from the Edo period, among the Germanic tribes in the high
Middle Ages, and among the Jews daughters could not receive
bequests unless there were no surviving brothers in their natal
households (BS, Section 2).  This exactly applies to the Milesians
taking of Ireland, within the time frame determined from the records
themselves, using no preconditioned biases, re: the daughters of the
King of Judah.  According to early Irish law, "a daughter with brothers
would not normally receive a portion of the inheritance in land, she
would inherit movable property.  However, should there be no sons,
some of the law tracts allow the daughter to inherit a limited portion.
However, unless her husband was a foreigner to the túath and had no
land of his own, the land would not descend to her sons, but instead
return to the other members of her agnatic kin group.  However, there
was apparently pressure for a woman with land to marry a relative to
keep the land within the kin group."  Social and commercial relations
between the peoples of the northwest of the Iberian Peninsula and
those of Brittany and the British Islands date back to very remote times.
Celtic Legacy in Galicia notes trade in tin between Ireland and Galicia
was already established.

[Carthaginian commerce was by sea throughout the Mediterranean
and far into the Atlantic and by land across the Sahara desert.
According to Aristotle, the Carthaginians and others had treaties
of commerce to regulate their exports and imports.  The empire
of Carthage depended heavily on its trade with Tartessos and
other cities of the Iberian peninsula, from which it obtained vast
quantities of silver, lead, and, even more importantly, tin ore,
which was essential to the manufacture of bronze objects by
the civilizations of antiquity.  Its trade relations with the Iberians
and the naval might that enforced Carthage's monopoly on trade
with tin-rich Britain and the Canary Islands allowed it to be the
sole significant broker of tin and maker of bronze.  Maintaining
this monopoly was one of the major sources of power and prosperity
for Carthage, and a Carthaginian merchant would rather crash his ship
upon the rocky shores of Britain than reveal to any rival how it could
be safely approached.]

Though Solomon and his associates were religious in nature, they were not

Ancient Milesius Ancestry notes that "Under the leadership of Lamhfionnxe
"Lamhfionn" the family removed from Scythia to a place in Libya near Carthage.
Scythians are known to have invaded Syria and Judea and sacked Nineveh and
Babylon.  At the Museums:  All that Glitters is Scythian.  Objects include bronze
weapons and sculptures, silver and bone ornaments, Scythian and Greek ceramics,
massive stone sculptures, and, of course, gold.  See warrior's equipment and horses.

After remaining in Lybia for eight (8) generations, they removed to Brigansa
in Portugal."  The History of Carthage notes King Nebuchadnezzar II of Babylon
was conducting the 13 year siege of Tyre starting from 585 B.C.  Carthage became
independent of her mother city in political matters about this time.  Historically,
Carthage stationed troops and some type of central administration in Sardinia
and Spain to control her domain. The cities, in return for surrendering these
privileges, obtained Carthaginian protection, which provided the fleet to
combat piracy and fought wars needed to protect these cities from external
threats.  Milesians (Irish) migration, after eight generations, from the area
of Carthage, follows the colonist trading expansion pattern, established
by Carthage.  Additionally, the Milesian invasion, within its proper context,
relates to Carians, associated with the Sythians, who spread south to ancient
Israel and east to Italy (Sicily), associated with Greece; from the area of modern
Turkey, down to Egypt; with ancient Hebrew - Egyptian connections, at Tahpanhes,
with the Royal daughters of the King of Judah, that are attested to within Irish
written historical records, kept before the 6th century, handed down and filtered.

Handbook of Greek Archaeology, Chapter II, pages 47 - 52, notes the Carians
had been the inventors of armour, and that they introduced handles to their
shields, which previously had been carried by means of leather thongs round
the neck and left shoulder.  The Carians were a fighting race; we know them
as mercenaries in Egypt assisting Psarnrnetichos in the latter half of the 7th
century B.C.  An Account of Egypt notes certain Ionians and Carians who had
sailed forth for plunder were compelled to come to shore in Egypt, and they
having landed and being clad in bronze armour, one of the Egyptians, not
having before seen men clad in bronze armour, came to the fen-land and
brought a report to Psammetichos that bronze men had come from the sea
and were plundering the plain.  So he, perceiving that the saying of the
Oracle was coming to pass, dealt in a friendly manner with the Ionians
and Carians, and with large promises he persuaded them to take his part.

Then when he had persuaded them, with the help of those Egyptians who
favoured his cause and of these foreign mercenaries, he overthrew the kings.
Having thus got power over all Egypt, Psammetichos made for Hephaistos
that gateway of the temple at Memphis which is turned towards the South Wind;
and he built a court for Apis, in which Apis is kept when he appears, opposite
to the gateway of the temple, surrounded all with pillars and covered with
figures; and instead of columns there stand to support the roof of the court
colossal statues twelve cubits high.  Now Apis is in the tongue of the Hellenes
Epaphos.  To the Ionians and to the Carians who had helped him Psammetichos
granted portions of land to dwell in, opposite to one another with the river Nile
between, and these were called “Encampments”; these portions of land he
gave them, and he paid them besides all that he had promised: moreover
he placed with them Egyptian boys to have them taught the Hellenic tongue;
and from these, who learnt the language thoroughly, are descended the present
class of interpreters in Egypt.  Now the Ionians and Carians occupied these
portions of land for a long time, and they are towards the sea a little below
the city of Bubastis, on that which is called the Pelusian mouth of the Nile.

These men king Amasis afterwards removed from thence and established
them at Memphis, making them into a guard for himself against the Egyptians:
and they being settled in Egypt, we who are Hellenes know by intercourse
with them the certainty of all that which happened in Egypt beginning from
king Psammetichos and afterwards; for these were the first men of foreign
tongue who settled in Egypt: and in the land from which they were removed
there still remained down to my time the sheds where their ships were
drawn up and the ruins of their houses.  [Encamp gives the idea of an enclosure,
or protection, as within the canopy of marriage obligations; thus, they were given
land, not wives, which assures the said royalty link is biblical Hebrew ancestry,
not Egyptian; i.e., Scota, the daughter of Pharaoh, etc., are historical grants of
enclosed lands called “Encampments".  They "came to the fen-land", as in
"Fenechas", the law of the Feni, or the freemen of Ireland.]  [The name of
Scotland is later derived from the Latin Scoti, the term applied to Gaels.  Its
origins are found in Herodotus, The Fourth Book, Entitled Melpomene.  From
Leipoxais sprang the Scythians of the race called Auchatae; from Arpoxais,
the middle brother, those known as the Catiari and Traspians; from Colaxais,
the youngest, the Royal Scythians, or Paralatae.  All together they are named
Scoloti, (Skodiai, Scotti, Skoloti) after one of their kings: the Greeks, however,
call them Scythians.]

Record keeping in antiquity; in an era where the word was the law.  "In the
beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God"
is a statement right out of ancient history.  This is why it was so tremendously
important for medieval church scribes to attach ancient pagan documents to
earlier biblical text.  It was life or death.  In the ancient country of Ireland,
medieval church scribes willfully injected fabrications into official pagan
documents, so that they would look distorted and unreliably corrupted,
even though connected to the biblical origins (gentile, not semitic); when
compared to the more enlightened religious Christian philosophy, as it
was being expounded within the transmission process from a druid
dominated, to priestly directed high king, sub kings hierarchy.

that he and his people would settle in Ireland.  This corresponds to Psammetichos,
when he had sent to the Oracle of Leto in the city of Buto, where the Egyptians
have their most truthful Oracle, there was given to him the reply that vengeance
would come when men of bronze appeared from the sea.  And he was strongly
disposed not to believe that bronze men would come to help him; but after no
long time had passed, certain Ionians and Carians who had sailed forth for plunder
were compelled to come to shore in Egypt, and they having landed and being clad
in bronze armour, one of the Egyptians, not having before seen men clad in bronze
armour, came to the fen-land and brought a report to Psammetichos (Psamtik I)
that bronze men had come from the sea and were plundering the plain.  "Upon

geography (location):
Ora Maritima, written in the fourth century A.D. by the Roman
Avienus incorporated information from the sixth century B.C.
sailing manual called the Massaliote Periplus.  Sea journeys
were made by Tartessan and Carthaginian merchant venturers
from southern Iberia, northwards to Brittany, Albion [Britain]
and Ireland in order to trade with the natives.  "From here it is
a two-day voyage to the Sacred Isle, for by this name the ancients
called the island.  It lies rich in turf among the waves, thickly
populated by the Hierni.  Nearby lies the island of the Albiones.
The Tartessians were accustomed to trade even to the edge of
the Oestrymnides.  The Carthaginian colonists and people around
the Pillars of Hercules frequented these waters.  Four months
scarcely is enough for the voyage, as Himilco the Carthaginian
proved by sailing there and back himself."  Rufius Festus Avienus
claims he is revealing information recorded by Himilco in the annals
of the Carthaginians.

The Journal of Near Eastern Studies, Vol. XVI, (January-October 1957),
has the article: "The Problem of Ancient Oriental Shipping on the North Sea",
by Bertil Lundman. He states that on all the Frisian Islands [See: Frisian and Free,
Study of an ethnic minority of The Netherlands, by Cynthia Keppley Mahmood, 1989],
quite a number of people with huge curved noses and darker coloring are found.
There are also instances of a similar type found in the coastal areas of the British Isles.
These darker skin colored people, with slightly thick lips, have almost "Jewish" noses,
and convex "Iberian, nay Assyrian profiles". This is similar to the population of
Cornwall, England with Semitic traces of the Jewish-Armenoid type.  Significantly,
as noted by Fig. 4- Ancient sea routes between Asia Minor and the North, include
connections to Cyprus, the Etruscans, southern Spain, northwest France, western
Ireland, south and west England, including both the passage through the English
Channel and that around the north of Scotland. "Mixed Armenoid types similar to
those found in western Europe exist in an area from southwestern Arabia" and
along the Persian Gulf, thence east and southwards along the western and south-
western coast of India.  This continues on down to Ceylon and even a little way
along the southernmost part of the eastern coast, in Tinnevelly. [The name of an
ancient non-Aryan, Tamil Kingdom at the extreme southern tip of the Indian
peninsula, as mentioned in The Hindu World, Vol. 2, pages 180-181.]

MILESIUS - GALAMH - [Míl Espáine], born circa 645 B.C.:
"The fleet of the sone of Milidh came to Ireland . . . , to take it from
the Tuatha De Dananns; and they fought the battle of Sliabh Mis with
them on the third day after landing.  In this battle fell Scota, the daughter
of Pharaoh, wife of Milidh; and the grave of Scota is to be seen between
Sliabh Mis and the sea."  [Mummies Found in Outer Hebrides (Scotland)
"Analysis showed . . . bodies had been preserved using naturally
occurring acids and peat bogs."   The Annals of the Four Masters
provides added written evidence of an ancient Egyptian practice.
M3959.1  "The seventeenth year of Slanoll in the sovereignty; and
he died, at the end of that time, at Teamhair Tara, and it is not
known what disease carried him off; he was found dead, but his
colour did not change.  He was afterwards buried; and after his
body had been forty years in the grave, it was taken up by his son,
i.e. Oilioll mac Slanuill, and the body had remained without rotting
or decomposing during this period.  This thing was a great wonder
and surprise to the men of Ireland."]  Indication of conveyed knowledge,
adjusted to local conditions, preservation process and climate.

Cannibalism is related to the practice of headhunting and European Celts
nailed heads of personal enemies to walls, etc.  The practice continued
approximately to the end of the Middle Ages in Ireland and the Scottish
marches. The head housed a person's soul.  Local efforts were made to
preserve bodies by the process of bogs and tree products.  Veneration
of trees is validated by Ogham; referred to as the "Celtic Tree Alphabet",
based on a High Medieval Bríatharogam tradition ascribing names of trees
to the individual letters.  Trees provided bark for writing, other products
(resin) for body preservation, tools and human comforts.  Sometimes, a
"biological body" genealogy appears to have been created, composed
of various family relatives.  Bodies were preserved using naturally
occurring acids and peat bogs, not eaten; they did not devour them.

Later statements on "Cannibalism" in Ireland appear as misunderstanding
of the burial customs; i.e. Strabo (63/64 BC – ca. AD 24)  relates how
the inhabitants of Ireland are even more savage (agrioteroi) than those
of Britain 'since they are man-eaters (anthropophagoi) . . . and since they
count it an honourable thing when their fathers die, to devour (katesthiein)
them' (4.5.4).  This does confirm the historical fact in Ireland of a male
dominated hereditary society:  High King and sub kings; mummy being
used in display as a figure for hereditary authority descent, even as the
Egyptian Pharaoh was both religious and political leader, the bridge
between life and death.  To eat, drink; figuratively, the word means
to enjoy or sometimes table fellowship.  Thus, Celtic or Gaels table
convocations: "the body had remained without rotting or decomposing
during this period.  This thing was a great wonder and surprise to the
men of Ireland."  The Hebrew term (usually katesthiein in the LXX)
can denote consuming by the sword, fire, heat, hunger and sickness,
and divine wrath.  In warning or laments, we also find "to destroy".

One of the Bog Men used hair gel, made of vegetable plant oil mixed
with resin from pine trees found in Spain and southwest France.  Prior
to this time, Egyptians imported timber and resin from the city of Byblos,
for building and mummification (cedar sawdust for mummification and
the resin, known as Cedria, for embalming.)  London Medical Dictionary
notes cedria is the pitch, or resin, that distils from the cedar tree; and the
cedrelaeum is an oil obtained from the pitch or resin, and which swims
above it in boiling, and is collected with wool.  Pedanius Dioscorides
remarks, that the best cedria is thick, pellucid, and of a nauseous smell;
when poured out it does not spread, but collects in drops, and preserves
dead bodies from putrefaction.  Before the advent of anesthesia, medical
surgery was a terrifying prospect.  Its victims could suffer indescribable
agony.  Herodotus describes how the Scythians inhaled hemp vapours
to induce insensibility.  Hemp was first cultivated and then burned like
incense in closed rooms.  The effect was intoxication and then oblivion.
[4.75] The Scythians, as I said, take some of this hemp-seed, and, creeping
under the felt coverings, throw it upon the red-hot stones; immediately it
smokes, and gives out such a vapour as no Grecian vapour-bath can
exceed; the Scyths, delighted, shout for joy, . . .(Eight sons of Galamh
of the shouts, who was called Milidh of Spain).  Their women make
a mixture of cypress, cedar, and frankincense wood, which they pound
into a paste upon a rough piece of stone, adding a little water to it.
With this substance, which is of a thick consistency, they plaster their
faces all over, and indeed their whole bodies.  A sweet odour is thereby
imparted to them, and when they take off the plaster on the day following,
their skin is clean and glossy.

The Irish Mil genealogies are military, ship census and family
data, connected by historical time period after the Battle of Carchemish,
circa 605 B.C., when Tyre was forced to submit to the rule of Babylonia.
The various curses placed against the sons of Mil so that they could
not find Ireland again, are similar to "the curses leveled against Tyre
should it abrogate its treaty obligations"; i.e., the early data
on Ireland contacts reveal treaty and trade relationships.  Just as
in the triad of three Kings in Ireland, [Mac Cuill, Mac Cecht,
and Mac Greine]: "May Baal Shamaim, Baal Malagec and Baal Saphon
raise an evil wind against your ships to undo their moorings and tear out
their mooring pole, may a strong wave sink them in the sea and a
violent tide [rise] against you".

This curse, taken from Neo-Assyrian Treaties and Loyalty Oaths, c. 1988,
[as reviewed in Tyre "In the Heart of the Seas"] shows a cultural link
to Irish Texts, #394, "The druids of Ireland and the poets sang spells
behind them, so that they were carried far from Ireland, and were
in distress by reason of the sea."

life:
Kinship is the foundation of Ancient Brehon Laws of Ireland, that is similar
to Jewish land holding regulations that required a land grant to a servant
to be retained only until the servant's year of liberty; then it reverted back
to the family of the prince.  Animals were critical to the survival of the clan,
in Ireland and ancient Israel.  Brehon law has linguistic foundations going
back to 1000 B.C.: Affinity Between the Hebrew Language and the Celtic.
"The laws were originally written in the Bearla Feini, the Fenian dialect
of Gaelic."  Irish Kingship includes regulations going back in time to holders
of the office of Aaronic High Priest in ancient Israel, whose lineage is given
in the Book [Stick] of Levi.  In the eyes of the law, an Irish King must be
beyond reproach (innraic), nor could he be guilty of theft, nor could he
have any physical blemish.  In biblical and Temple times, when a Kohen
became physically infirm, he could no longer serve.  During the period
of the Holy Temple, Kohanim were required to abstain from wine and all
strong drink while performing their priestly duties.  Críth Gablach notes
how the king spends his week: Sunday is for drinking ale, Monday is for
judging, Tuesday is for playing fidchell, Wednesday is for watching hounds
hunt, Thursday is for sexual union, Friday is for racing horses, and Saturday
is for judging".  An example from one commentator: ["Sencha MacColl Cluin
was not wont to pass judgment until he had pondered upon it in his breast
the night before."  This probably refers to a judgment in a grave case involving
human life.  Judges of the Hebrew nation in early times were accustomed
to fast the night and morning before passing a death sentence.]

religion:
The Stone of Scone also commonly known as the Stone of Destiny or the Coronation
Stone is an oblong block of red sandstone, about 26 inches by 16 inches by 10.5 inches
in size and weighing approximately 336 pounds.  The top bears chisel-marks.  At each
end of the stone is an iron ring, apparently intended to make transport easier.  Research
geologists mapping the ancient Egyptian stone quarries have identified a seven-and-half-mile
stretch of road covered with slabs of sandstone and limestone and even some logs of petrified
wood.  The pavement, they concluded, facilitated the movement of human-drawn sleds loaded
with basalt stone from a nearby quarry to a quay for shipment by barge across the lake and on
the Nile to construction sites.  There is absolutely no evidence Jeremiah ever went to Ireland;
nevertheless, Jer. 45: 5  Baruch had a guarantee from God that his life would be protected.
Baruch was a "prize of war" in every place where he went because of his scribal and reading
capacities.  The Jewish pattern in the Irish royalty reveals a connective relationship, in the
keeping of the number of ships, as well as the names of "chieftains" and "servitors", outside
family pedigree.  Ramses II, Nebuchadnezzar and Jeremiah

The reasonable explanation for the Stone of Destiny relates [to Jeremiah and his famous
prophecy - to that day when he took "great stones in his hand, and placed them with mortar
in the brick-work which was at the entry of the Pharoah's House in Tahpahnes.]  [This 'brickwork,
or pavement' at the entry of Pharoah's House has always been a puzzle to translators; but as soon
as we began to uncover the plan of the palace, the exactness of the description was manifest;
for here, outside the buildings adjoining the central tower, I found by repeated trenchings an
area of continuous brickwork resting on sand, and measuring about 100 feet by 60 feet, facing
the entrance to the buildings of the east corner.  The roadway ran up a recess between the
buildings, and this platform, which has no traces of superstructures, was evidently an open-air
place for loading and unloading goods. . . ]  Historical evidence suggests that any stone taken
to Ireland, was for loading and unloading goods from ships; i.e., a shore anchor for ships to
quickly tie onto, taken to foreign beaches, for attacking from obscure points in enemy territory.

Research Notes:
A.  In Irish Mythology, The Sons of Mil are incorrectly placed within
     the context of the Mythological Cycle, due to the reworking of Irish
     genealogies to fit into the chronology of Greek and biblical ancestry.
     Independent evaluation, using internal and historical evidence,
     confirms them as part of the Historical Cycles of Ireland.  Biblical
     evaluation concurs, that Milesians (Irish) migrations, only become
     credible as historical. within the time period of the prophet Jeremiah.
     Carthage, according to Roman legend , was founded in 814 B.C., by
     Phoenician colonists under the leadership of Elissa - Queen Dido,
     as noted in the List of Kings of Tyre.  Migration points were Cyprus
     and perhaps Malta [Ovid, Fasti 3.567f].  Carthage, recorded by Greeks
     as Byrsa, or "oxhide"; that established on land encompassed by strips of
     an oxhide.  History of Ireland, by Keating (1905) notes use of bull's hides
     by druids, who spread out the hide of a sacrificed animal, the raw side up.
     Full text of "The History of Ireland"

B.  The Roll of the Kings, published in Vol. 44 of Irish Texts Society,
     has various redactions.  Queen Tea had sureties for the place of her
     burial, before coming to Ireland.  This suggests royal lineage and
     that the marriage occurred PRIOR to the arrival in Ireland, re:
     Poem no. LXXXVI, #485.

     The records additionally show data connecting the expedition of the
     Sons of Mil with the Cruithne who came from the land of Thracia, by
     intermarriage. . . .
     Section VIII-- The Sons of Mil, #396, suggests that Erimon deserted
     a first wife Odba in Spain and took Tea in her stead.  Section VIII--
     The Sons of Mil, #424, notes Seng, daughter of Refloir as wife of Mil;
     another apparent wife of Mil, NOT Erimon, is the said Scota, daughter
     of Pharao.  Ir is born in the Sea of Thrace.  "Mil had six sons of Scota
     and two sons of the Spanish woman" . . .  The births of the children of
     Mil suggest contacts with Scythia, Egypt, Thrace, the Marshes and Spain.

     Ir is of Hebrew origins, appearing in 1 Chr. 7: 6-12.  The name means
     "city" or "town".  Verse 6:  The sons of Benjamin: Bela, Becher, and
     Jediael, three.  The sons of Bela:  Ezbon, Uzzi, Uzziel, Jerimoth and Iri,
     five, heads of ancestral houses, mighty warriors; and their enrollment

C.  JEWISH - IRISH CONNECTIONS: THE HISTORICAL FRAMEWORK
     The sons of Benjamin: . . . There was "an international conference
     held at the University of Tel Aviv, Israel", May 29-31, 2001, on:
     Judah and the Judeans in the Neo-Babylonian Period.  The volume
     was copyrighted in 2003 by Eisenbrauns; edited by Oded Lipschits
     and Joseph Blenkinsopp.
     - Page 14 . . . Archaeological excavations support the continued existence
       of a considerable Israelite material culture in the Negev beyond doubt,
       particularly in the area of Benjamin, . . .
     - Page 66 . . . but based on analysis of the biblical texts--that the Babylonians
       did not devastate the northern part of the kingdom of Judah, that is, the
       territorial area of Benjamin . . . The Babylonians spared the area of Benjamin. 
       This is why many Judeans fled to Benjamin, and perhaps to the province of
       Samaria, including privileged families such as Gedaliah and Yaazaniah,
       priests, and many vinedressers, as we learn from the wine production in
       Gibeon and Mozah. . . .
     - Page 67 . . . The situation in Benjamin (or Transjordan) could not be analogous
       in any way to the situation in Judah proper . . .
     - Page 71 . . . Judah proper was a land with no state or capital, . . . no significant
       economic activities or trade (except in Benjamin) . . .
     - Page 158 . . .  Greek presence in the Cisjordan, via both trade and physical
       presence, began during the second half of the seventh century B.C.E.  Evidence
       of trade is provided by imported Corinthian and east Greek pottery . . .
     - Page 159 . . . Evidence for the continued presence of Greek trading ventures
       in the western Levant during the sixth century is supplied by . . .  The Babylonian
       extermination of the Philistines ended Greek imports into Cisjordan proper via
       Philistine contacts but appears to have left trade intact within the empire at
       large, including Cisjordan, via the Egyptians and Phoenicians. {2}
     - Page 310 . . . Archaeological evidence for the Neo-Babylonian period . . .
       Excavations show most of the settlement in the area of the former tribal
       territory of Benjamin, north of Jerusalem. . . .
     - Page 333 . . . As long as the city [Jerusalem] had not recovered, there was no
       economic basis for villages and farms in Jerusalem's immediate environs; the
       villages and farms that were maintained were located in the Benjamin region,
       north of the city, and in the Bethlehem district in the south.
     - Page 346 . . . the region of Benjamin . . . according to the biblical accounts,
       was the center of Judah in the period following the destruction of Jerusalem.
       . . . had four important, central settlements that were not destroyed by the
       Babylonians and, indeed, even flourished during the sixth century B.C.E.
     - Page 347 . . . at the beginning of the sixth century B.C.E. . . . Mizpah . . .
       had become a governmental and administrative center, noteworthy for its
       storehouses and the number of relatively large residential buildings . . .
     - Page 350 . . . The gradual impoverishment of the settlement in the region
       of Benjamin took place at the end of the sixth and the beginning of the fifth
       centuries B.C.E. . . .
     - Page 351 . . . In the northern part of the Judean Hills, the settlement and
       historical processes between the seventh and fifth centuries B.C.E., were
       similar to those of the region of Benjamin.
     - Page 364 . . . From Table 3.  Estimate of Total Population of Judah at the
       End of the Iron Age and in the Persian Period, by Regional Distribution,
       for Benjamin, went from 28,750 at the end of the Iron Age to 12,500 in the
       Persian period, a difference of 16,250 people. . . . There "is no evidence
       of a deportation from either the region of Benjamin or the northern Judean
       Hills", suggesting that major colonization did occur through economic trade
       contacts, in this time period, for those elite groups, who were not interested
       in becoming second class status citizens to the new centralized leadership
       in the resettlement of Jerusalem.
     - Page 365 . . . Parallel to this, with the shift of the political and religious hub to
       Jerusalem, a rapid dwindling in population took place in the Benjaminite region.
       Apparently, part of the region's inhabitants migrated out of the province . . .
       [I again note: Jewish foreign contact [IN IRELAND], is found in the Hebrew
       word "Ir", meaning "city" [Irish Texts Society Vol. XLIV - Ir] or "town" as
       presented in the word structure of #428, wherein Ir s. Mil, . . . of his progeny
       are Fergus s. Roig with his numerous COMMUNITIES, and Conall Cernach
       with his numerous COMMUNITIES.]
     - Page 438 . . . the Babylonians seem to have left the area of Benjamin relatively
       undisturbed . . . it was to their advantage to spare this area, if only to exploit it
       as a source of supplies during a siege of uncertain duration. . . .
     - Page 483 . . . Mixed marriages between the long-established and culturally
       influential Babylonian urbanites and foreigners were in one direction: the
       Babylonians would marry alien wives, but they did not give their daughters
       in marriage to non-Babylonians.  We would expect Babylonians, who were
       the influential group in their country, to marry accultured foreign wives, but
       we would hardly expect urbanite Babylonians to give their own daughters
       in marriage to foreign commoners.  [IR to IRELAND suggests a similar pattern
       of an accultured Jewish marriage into the influential established Irish Royalty.]

         The Biblical Tamar = Heremon [Eochaidh I, King in Ireland, the Heremon - [Érimón]].

         "At the end of this, the tenth year of the reign of Irial Faidh,

         is validation of Irish ancient economic man: "The important role for
         the sacred in the making of contracts; the performance of magical
         technology; the substitution of memory, recitation, and symbolic
         gestures for general literacy; the emphasis on professional standards
         and maintaining a good name (Then said Ith: Work just righteousness,
         for good is the land wherein ye dwell; plenteous its fruit, its honey, its
         wheat and its fish; moderate its heat and its cold.); the prominence of

Research Notes:
A.  Belinus the Great was a legendary king of the Britons, as recounted
     by Geoffrey of Monmouth.  He was the son of Dunvallo Molmutius
     and brother of Brennius.  Belinus and Brennius merged their armies
     into one great one and invaded Gaul.  After a year of warfare, the
     joint army managed to submit all the Frankish kingdoms in Gaul to
     their authority.  Now with an even greater army, Belinus lead his
     great army to the Italian peninsula and threatened to invade Rome.
     [In history, Rome was captured by an individual named Brennus,
     following the Battle of the Allia on July 18, 390 BC.]  When the brother
     of Brennius died, (Belinus the Great), he was succeeded by his son
     Gurguit Barbtruc.  When Gurguit Barbtruc was returning from a military
     voyage to Denmark, he came across a fleet of thirty ships of men and
     women, called Basclenses (Irish), under the leadership of Partholoim.
     Thus, Partholón, leader of the second group of people to settle Ireland,
     appears synchronic to the era of Gurguit Barbtruc, which contradicts
     and makes completely fictitious, all of the listed time frames: "2680 BC
     according to the chronology of the Annals of the Four Masters, 2061 BC
     according to Geoffrey Keating's  chronology, and the time of Abraham
     according to Irish synchronic historians."; as so presented according to
     the works of one of the major figures in the development of British history.

B.  Navan Fort (Emain Macha) area, was inhabited circa 600 to at least 250 BC.
     Found in these layers was the skull of a Barbary Macaque species, a monkey,
     commonly referred to as the "Barbary Ape", originating in the Atlas Mountains,
     which extend through Algeria, Morocco and Tunisia.  King Solomon had at sea
     a navy of Tharshish with the navy of King Hiram I of Tyre, the capital of ancient
     Phoenicia: once in three years came the navy of Tharshish, bringing gold, and
     silver, ivory and apes, and peacocks.  Macha is noted as one of the daughters
     of Partholón in a Lebor Gabála Érenn poem.  Emain Macha, capital of the Ulaid
     people (province of Ulster); traditionally founded by Macha (elevated to goddess)
     circa 5th to 7th century BC.  Annals of the Four Masters record Eamhain Mhacha
     abandoned after being burned by the Three Collas in 331 AD, having stood for
     six centuries, as long celebrated by the Irish bards; founding as circa 300 BC.
     Writings concerning Tea, Dido and Macha reflect the same pattern of thought
     in city founding; part of the Middle Eastern and Irish historical traditions.
         time period:
         [circa 400 BC]
         He was the father of:


062:   MAOIN - MAIN- [Maen]
         Ruled a civilized Kingdom, promoting arts and letters.
         time period:
         [circa 375 BC]
         He was the father of:


063:   ROTH[E]ACHTA[CH] - RO[I]THEACHTAI[D]GH - [Rothechtaid mac Main]
         "After Roitheachtaigh had been twenty five years in the sovereignty of
         Ireland, he fell by Sedna [Sétna Airt], son of Airtri [Artrí], at Cruachain."
         [Rothechtaid s. Maen s. Óengus Olmucaid]
          The Gauls, once more threatening Rome, are decisively
         beaten by an army comprising Rome and its allies.
         time period:
         [circa 350 BC]
         He was the father of:
         - - -    (Some pedigrees say): DEMAL [Demal]  [Sirna s. Dian s. Denol [or Damal].]
         He was the father of:


064:   DEIN - DAN - DRIN - [Dian]
         Denied the Monarchy by Sétna Airt, whose son Fíacha Fínscothach
         was the father of Ollom Fotla, who governed by enlightened principles,
         instituting a national assembly that convened every three years.  "Written"
         family genealogies were examined, corrected and carefully preserved in
         the national record center, at Tara.  These records were used to maintain
         male inheritance rights of property, by genealogy tables.  Nobles wore gold
         necklaces, a sign of great accumulated wealth, by merchant activities.

Research Notes for Irish Kings and Pedigrees:
A.  Irish Kings and Irish Pedigrees or the Origin and Stem of the Irish Nation
     have sets of applied chronologies, contradicted by internal record source
     evidence, when placed within history.  Using only the internal evidence,
     there is an additional apparent inclusion of numerous unidentifiable name
     inserts into the recorded pedigrees, that fabricates a numerical listing,
     inconsistent with the approximate reproductive age estimates needed
     for producing offspring.  The records give special emphasis to the great
     superiority of Ireland over Scotland.   Family genealogies, noted as
     carefully preserved in the national record center at Tara, during the
     lifetime of DEIN - DAN - DRIN - DIAN, do not match with the actual data
     records, showing large 'islands' of pedigree from Ugaine Mor . . . down
     to Tuathal, that reflect real people and real relationships.  This suggests
     strongly that the national Feis Teamhrach (or "Parliament of Tara"),
     revising antiquities, genealogies, and chronicles, did not occur until
     much later, during the time frame of Ugaine Mor.
         time period:

Research Notes:
A.  Ogham stone writing is found, dated to circa 500 B.C. on the European
     continent, within the known ancient Irish trade and cultural (Gaels)
     framework.  Gallaecia (modern Galicia and northern Portugal), had
     an early form of Ogham script.  The ancient Irish culture is also manifest
     in surviving stone ogham, with Latin comparisons, additionally showing
     known ancient Irish culture having written contact with Roman traders.
     All surviving evidence suggests that ancient Ireland had ogham writing
     skills, used in part for cross Atlantic trading relationships, dating back
     to circa 500 B.C.  "Evidence exists which shows that the Celtic trade
     with the Mediterranean world was flourishing.  Their religion was druidic,
     centered in Brittany."  "In the 5th century BC, the La Tène culture,
     characterized by finely crafted jewelry, weapons and pottery, spread
     from eastern Gaul and by the 5th-1st centuries, this influence had
     spread from Hispania to the shores of the Black Sea."  The University
     of Cork has preserved a special collection of Ogham writings, part of
     boundary marker and grave inscriptions, in Ireland, with identifiable
     names in “genealogical” formations.  They are similar in their form
     and markings, to upright Ogham stones found on the European continent,
     in the nations of Spain and Portugal, the latter dating to 500 B.C.

         The Lebor Gabála Érenn synchronises his reign

"A key aspect of the Celtic economy was its capacity to feed and clothe
itself and have enough purchasing power to acquire some of the more
luxurious things in life.  They traded in food, metals, fine ceramics,
jewellery, olive oil. perfumes, wines etc.  As well as more localised
trading, Ireland, West Scotland, Wales, Cornwall, Gaul and Brittany
were all linked by trade.  Throughout Europe, the peoples of the
Mediterranean set up entire cities on the border of Celtic areas
to take advantage of their trade.  The Phoenicians had a trading
post near Cádiz in Southern Spain and Greek entrepreneurs built
Marseille in the South of France."

life:
Ugaine Mor is identified historically by the creation of the divisions
in Ireland.  Complexity of formation is involved in the "units within
units".  "[T]here are indications that each was also a complete society
in itself, a replica of the entire series.  Kingship belonged pre-eminently
to the central province, but every province had a king of its own."  "[E]ach
province had its druids, warriors, farmers and serfs.  Furthermore, the social
classes themselves were not homogeneous groups.  Each had a structure
which seems to have reproduced that of the larger society.  Just as there
were high-kings, provincial kings and tribal kings, so were the grades
within the learned class."  Encyclopedia of the Celts: Ibar Mac Riangabra - Iweret

religion:
Jewish foreign contact is found in the Hebrew word "Ir", meaning "city"
[Irish Texts Society Vol. XVIV - Ir] or "town" as presented in the word
structure of #428, wherein Ir s. Mil, . . . of his progeny are Fergus s. Roig
with his numerous COMMUNITIES, and Conall Cernach with his numerous
COMMUNITIES.  Ugaine Mor was to secular Ireland what Moses was
to the Hebrew Nation.  "They collaborated in what became effectively
a national legal system, establishing Irish laws as the oldest surviving
law in Europe."  His association with political land divisions in Ireland,
similar to that undertaken by the Celts in Europe, who organized
themselves into small regional groups, validates Ugaine Mor,
as historically plausible as Caesar, Napoleon, or other writers
of national codes.

time period:
Ugaine Mor, as King of Ireland and of the whole of the west of Europe,
had a confederacy relationship, as is particularly noted by his marriage
to "Caesair, daughter of the King of the Gauls, his brethren Celts." . . .
"Ugaine Mor, after he had been full forty years king of Ireland, and of
the whole of the west of Europe, as far as Muir Toirrian, was slain by
Badhbhchadh, at Tealach An Chosgair, in Magh Muireadha, in Bregia.
This Ugaine was he who exacted oaths, by all the elements visible
and invisible, from the men of Ireland in general, that they would never
contend for the sovereignty of Ireland with his children or his race."
The idea of a continued confederacy is suggested by "Cobhthach Cael
Breagh, son of Ugaine, after having been fifty years in the sovereignty
of Ireland, fell by Labhraidh Loingseach, i.e. Maen, son of Oilioll Aine,
with thirty kings about him, at Dinn Righ, on the brink of the Bearbha."

These statements appear valid within the time period of: "The Laginian
(Laigin) tribes from Armorica in northwestern France . . .  said to have
arrived in Ireland around 300 B.C. - 200 B.C. and originally settled in
the area of southeast Ireland for which the province of Leinster takes
its name.  They may have displaced earlier Fir Bolg (Erainn) tribes,
perhaps the Fir Domnann and Gáileóin.  The Laigin were later said
to have spawned the Free Tribes of Leinster; the Uí Failge, Uí Bairrche
and Uí Enachglaiss.  The Fir Domnann and the Gáileóin appear to later
establish themselves in Connacht forcing aside some of the [other?]
Firbolgs like the Gregraige.  The Laigin may have also spread into
other parts of the country as the Dal Cairpre Arad of Munster, and
perhaps the Gaileanga and Luighne tribes of Connacht and Meath."

The noted Provinces of Leinster, Munster and Connacht cover all of
the present day country of Ireland; reasonably maintaining connections
to Armorica in northwestern France and thus allowing for an intermarriage
with one said Caesair.  Armorica is the ancient name for the northwestern
part of France, especially Brittany, the exact location of the ship building
Veneti, the only tribe that historically validates a fleet for Ugaine Mor.
Similar cross channel political, economic and military power has been
exercised by others, such as Diviciacus, [We are told by Caesar himself:
"... Among them (the Suessiones), even within living memory, Diviciacus
had been king, the most powerful man in the whole of Gaul, who had
exercised sovereignty alike over a great part of these districts, and even
over Britain. . . . " (Caesar De Bello Gallico ii.4)], Caesar ["The inland
part of Britain is inhabited by tribes declared in their own tradition to be
indigenous to the island, the maritime part by tribes that migrated at an
earlier time from Belgium to seek booty by invasion. ..." (Caesar
De Bello Gallico v.12)] and more recently, William the Conqueror.

Ugaine Mor in history, is found in the great expansion of the
La Tene culture, "late in northern and western Europe, confined
to the 2nd and 1st centuries B.C., but with a few 3rd-century finds
as well . . . related to the expansion of trade and the formation
of oppida . . . and development of social hierarchy . . . Some late
cross-Channel migrations are well documented in both
written sources and archaeologically . . ."  The expansion of
Rome led to "the agglomeration of large groups of the
population in oppida, most importantly artisans and craft
specialists, in the late phase under the leadership of groups
of oligarchical nobles."  See: Irish Mediaeval Chariots.

From the time of 3rd-century migrations, or, more accurately,
mobile Celtic armies, there were included "warrior groups even
from distant Celtic tribes in Gaul", with known Celtic mercenaries
fighting in "Hellenistic armies in Sicily, Greece, Egypt and Asia Minor"
as "recorded in classical sources."

Research Notes for Ugaine Mor:
A.  Úgaine Mór Contemporary of Alexander the Great; sailed with a fleet
     into the Mediterranean.  Landed forces in Africa and invaded Sicily.
     This suggests a confederation with Carthage.  Proceeded to Gaul (France)
     and married Caesair, daughter of the King of the Celts in Gaul.  Now, this
     information is one of the keys to the errors in time periods, inserted by some
     too wise scribes; for if Ugaine the Great was contemporary with Alexander
     the Great . . . this was the time period of about 350 B.C.  And, the Punic Wars
     were fought in the main between 250 B.C. and 150 B.C.  It is apparent to the
     feel of the author of this book, that some names have been added or inserted
     into this pedigree [over 30%] to eliminate the Jewish connection of the record;
     also, years extended (NUADADH - NUADHAD, born circa 820 B.C. matches with
     Carthage founded circa 814/813 B.C.), to unusual post-flood life spans, to make
     improper Biblical connections.

B.  The Gallic Wars, by Julius Caesar, From Book VI, Chapter 14,
      "The Druids . . . in almost all other matters, in their public and
     private transactions, they use Greek characters." Book VI,
     Chapter 24, "Accordingly, the Volcae Tectosages, seized on those
     parts of Germany which are the most fruitful [and lie] around the
     Hercynian Forest, (which, I perceive, was known by report to
     Eratosthenes and some other Greeks, and which they call Orcynia),
     and settled there."  This information pinpoints the statements of
     Caesar back to the period of circa 284 to 192 B.C.; that scholars of
     Alexandria, in Egypt were in contact with the Gauls and did report
     on their activities.  [6.24] And there was formerly a time when the
     Gauls excelled the Germans in prowess, and waged war on them
     offensively, and, on account of the great number of their people
     and the insufficiency of their land, sent colonies over the Rhine.
     . . . Which nation to this time retains its position in those settlements,
     and has a very high character for justice and military merit; now
     also they continue in the same scarcity, indigence, hardihood,
     as the Germans, and use the same food and dress; but their
     proximity to the Province and knowledge of commodities from
     countries beyond the sea supplies to the Gauls many things
     tending to luxury as well as civilization."  The European and
     Middle Eastern heritage are thus historically proven as being
     connected to ancient Celtic Ireland and the British Isles, going
     back in time to Eratosthenes of Cyrene, or circa 192 B.C.

C.   In the formation of knowledge concerning Medieval pedigrees tied to
     Ancient Royal Irish pedigrees, an invaluable aid is found in the writings
     of the late Dr. Daniel Murphy, Fellow of Trinity College, Dublin.  His work:
     A History of Irish Emigrant and Missionary Education, (copyrighted by the
     estate of Daniel Murphy 2000), is now distributed by Four Courts Press.
     "The author introduces the book by examining the Irish educational
     heritage underlining its heterogeneous character as a result of its
     assimilation of druidic, bardic and classical influences combined
     with a monastic culture whose emphasis on scholarly learning . . ."

     From page xviii:
     "Celtic Christianity was essentially a synthesis of three major elements:
     the Indo-European, druidic tradition of teaching and learning introduced
     into Ireland by the Celtic peoples from the third century B.C.; the bardic
     traditions of schooling that evolved from this, having absorbed much of
     the classical European heritage in the process; and the Gallo-Egyptian
     monastic culture, which was introduced to Ireland by Christian missionaries
     from Europe, beginning with St Patrick in the fifth century AD."

     Celtic education is evaluated from the writings of "Polyhistor, Posidonius,
     Timagenes [of Alexandria], Diodorus Siculus, Strabo, Caesar and Livy "
     . . . . "Documentary evidence exists from classical sources to confirm that
     schools had been established amongst the Celtic peoples at the latest by
     the second century B.C. . . ."  "Celtic society . . .  druids or scholars . . .
     were in fact a scholarly order . . ."   "Caesar describes the druids as priests,
     judges and teachers . . . He speaks of colleges in Britain where the druids
     received their training . . . 'these people have to memorise a great number
     of verses . . .'" . . . "Inscriptions of Gaulish Celtic . . . dating from as early
     as the third century B.C., have been identified . . ."  "Together with the
     famous Coligny Calendar (a sophisticated scheme of lunar calculations,
     written in Gaulish Celtic in the first century B.C.) . . ."

     "Dio Chrysostom (40-112 AD) . . . speaks of . . .'The Celts appointed
     Druids . . . versed in . . . wisdom without whom the kings were not allowed
     to adopt any plan or course so that in fact it was these who ruled and the
     kings became subordinates and instruments of their judgements.'"
     Of particular interest for genealogical evaluation, from page 6,
     "The bardic schools had been founded long before Christianity was
     introduced into Ireland and the two cultures -- the bardic and druidic --
     co-existed for several centuries." . . . . . . "druidic teachers 'gathered
     round them the young men of Gallic families and taught them all that
     they knew or believed . . . A few of these scholars stayed with their
     masters until they had reached the age of twenty years.'"

     "It would appear, from the available evidence, that they certainly taught
     natural philosophy, astronomy, astrology, law, medicine, history and
     GENEALOGY, and music."  [emphasis mine]  "Several of the classical
     writers . . . pay tribute to their expertise in astronomy . . . The Coligny
     Calendar . . . is a sophisticated five-year synchronisation of lunation
     within the solar year."  [Cross-Channel Seamanship and Navigation
     in the Late First Millennium B.C., by Sean McGrail, Oxford Journal
     of Archaeology, Vol. 2, No. 3, November 1983, pages 299-338, mentions
     . . . "The Celtic world also had a working knowledge of astronomy, infor-
     mation that was needed in direction-finding and in sea tidal prediction."]
     Mention is additionally made that "The Brehon Law system of Ireland"
     is a legacy of Celtic rather than Roman jurisprudence; that "the bardic
     schools . . . were already well established by the time Christianity was
     introduced into Ireland . . . essentially secular institutions that developed
     alongside the monastic system in Ireland."   That "brehons . . . in the early
     mediaeval period" included "some women".

D.  Chariotry and the Road Systems in the Celtic World
     Ancient Ireland was involved in trade relationships, with artifacts
     showing multiple extensive connections to literate Middle Eastern
     societies [that required written contracts], back to circa 1000 B.C.
     This would have required, at least a small group of literate individuals
     within the social elite, to create and record these transactions:
     to establish and maintain internal trade routes and road systems,
     as well as preserve and record the genealogies of elite family
     members that were involved in these exchange relationships.

     Monarch died at Tara.  He divided the kingdom back to provinces.
     LIST #72  This Monarch caused the division of the Kingdom by Ugaine Mór
     into twenty-five parts, to cease; and ordered that the ancient Firvolgian
     division into Provinces should be resumed, viz., Two Munsters, Leinster,
     Conacht, and Ulster.  He also divided the government of these Provinces
     amongst his favourite courtiers: - Conacht he divided into three parts
     between Fiodhach, Eochaidh Allat, and Tinne, son of Conragh, son of
     Ruadhri Mór, No 62 on the "Line of Ir;" Ulster (Uladh) he gave to
     Feargus, the son of Leighe; Leinster he gave to Ros, the son of Feargus
     Fairge; and the two Munsters he gave to Tighernach Teadhbheamach
     and Deagbadah.  After this division of the Kingdom, Eochaidh proceeded
     to erect a Royal Palace in Conacht; this he built on Tinne's government
     in a place called Druin-na-n Druagh, now Craughan (from Craughan
     Crodhearg, Maedhbh's mother, to whom she gave the palace), but
     previously, Rath Eochaidh.  About the same time he bestowed his
     daughter the Princess Maedhbh on Tinne, whom he constituted King
     of Conacht; Maedhbh being hereditary Queen of that Province.  After
     many years reign Tinne was slain by Maceacht (or Monaire) at Tara.

Research Notes:
A.  The contemporary historical records of the Irish people over time suggest
     that "Celtic practice in Ireland generally followed continental European
     precedents", as early as the third century B.C.  The accounts of the
     "various waves of Celtic invasions that occurred in pre-Christian Ireland",
     including the extant genealogies, can be evaluated within the structure of
     a society involved in an educational process that included:
     (a) training the elite by extensive years of memorization of Celtic history;
     (b) repetition of the oral traditions of history and genealogy; also,
     (c) the accumulation of some written records.

B.  Irish Literature  "McNeill has shown in his study of Irish oghams,
     that it was from the Romanized Britons that they first learned the
     art of writing .  . . . [This should be more narrowly applied to writings
     of a commercial nature, between the various Celtic tribes, located in
     Western Europe.]  Whoever the early Irish may have been who first
     discovered letters, whether from intercourse with Britain or with Gaul,
     they did not apparently bring either the Latin or the Greek alphabet
     back with them to Ireland, but they invented an entirely new one of
     their own, founded with considerable skill upon the Latin; this was
     used in very early times by the Irish Celts for inscriptions upon pillars
     and gravestones." . . .  [Evidence of an early Celtic written, not oral
     tradition, for the creation and preservation of complex and lengthy
     Irish Celtic pedigrees, is recorded in the writings of Diodorus of Sicily,
     about 40 B.C., concerning the druids: "Accordingly, at the burial of
     the dead, some cast letters, addressed to their departed relatives,
     upon the funeral pile, under the belief that the dead will read them
     in the next world."  Book v. ch. 28  "The contemporary historical
     records of the Irish people over time suggest that 'Celtic practice
     in Ireland generally followed continental European precedents',
     as early as the third century B.C."  Later Roman trade relations
     from western Wales, brought forth an admixture of Latin - Ogham
     monumental records, that were not absorbed culturally into Ireland.
     Ptolemy shows (Maps) the isolation of Ireland in Geography.  Most
     "of the towns on his map are inland.  Sure enough, this corresponds
     to reality: the coasts of Ireland are desolate, and the kingdoms
     that shared the island thru the Middle Ages had inland capitals."]

     "None of even the oldest Irish manuscripts preserved to us is anything
     like as ancient as these lapidary inscriptions.  The language of the
     ogham stones is in fact centuries older than that of the very oldest
     vellums, and agrees to a large extent to what has been found of the old
     Gaulish linguistic monuments.  Early Irish literature and the sagas
     relating to the pre-Christian period of Irish history abound with
     references to ogham writing, which was almost certainly of pagan origin,
     and which continued to be employed up to the Christianization of the island.  
     It was eventually superseded by the Roman letters which were introduced
     by the Church and must have been propagated with all the prestige of the
     new religion behind them; but isolated ogham inscriptions exist on grave
     stones erected as late as the year 600.  When the script was introduced
     into Ireland is uncertain, but it was probably about the second century."]

Research Notes:
A.  The Lebor Gabála Érenn synchronises the reign of another Irish King,
     [Eochu Feidlech] with the dictatorship of Julius Caesar (48-44 BC).  His
     daughter, Queen Medb of Connacht, married TINNE, a King of Connacht.
     Since TINNE is the Irish name of the eighth letter of the Ogham alphabet,
     it appears that ogham writing was prevalent in Ireland, at least to circa
     the first century B.C.

B. Genesis Chapter 1,  Verse 5:  "And God called the light Day, and the darkness
     he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day."   Here
     begins the idea and concept of calendar reckoning, with later Hebrew influence
     noted in various Celtic calendars.  Julius Caesar wrote circa 50 BC, that: "they
     keep birthdays and the beginnings of months and years in such an order that
     the day follows the night".  Continental Celtic culture was connected in many
     ways to the British Isles (Ireland), as all descend from the one god Dis; which
     indeed, is the Celtic equivalent of Jewish monotheism, which attributes all
     to a single God; the Halakha "the day goes after the night".  In ancient Israel,
     the Hebrew calendar was used by observant Jews for all of their daily activities.
     Thus, the Rabbinical reckoning "hook", is the date given for the creation of Adam.

C.  Professor Mark Hassall, in Conquest and Context, notes that Strabo stated Britain
     exported grain along with cattle, gold, silver and iron, hides, slaves and hunting dogs.
     Prepared hides, or animal skins, have been used by ancient civilizations, as a method
     for preserving the written word.  Traffic in hides from Britain included the exchange of
     gold, for which Ireland was famous.  Thus, the standard writing surface for business
     transactions, or community histories or genealogies [such as the "Dead Sea Scrolls"],
     was available to Ireland's craftsmen, trading Celtic copper, iron or gold; at least back
     to the time of Strabo.  Irish writing skills were later, the standard during the Medieval Ages,
     as indicated by the Book of Kells.  "The pages of the Book of Kells are made of vellum.
     It took more than 185 calfskins to provide the needed velum and a community advanced
     enough to process these hides into vellum. . . . The Inkwells were made of cow horns."

     Gallic Wars, by Julius Caesar, Book I, Chapter 29, notes: "In the camp
     of the Helvetii, lists were found, drawn up in Greek characters, and were
     brought to Caesar, in which an estimate had been drawn up, name by name,
     of the number which had gone forth from their country of those who were

     commented on the manuscripts and libraries found in visits to Ireland
     in the 1st and 2nd centuries.  [Traffic in hides from Britain included the
     exchange of gold, for which Ireland was famous.]  In short, the Celtic

Research Notes:
A.  In the fifth year of the war, Agricola [24], himself in the leading ship,
     crossed the Clota, and subdued in a series of victories tribes hitherto
     unknown.  In that part of Britain which looks toward Ireland, he posted
     some troops, hoping for fresh conquests rather than fearing attack,
     inasmuch as Ireland, being between Britain and Spain and conveniently
     situated for the seas round Gaul, might have been the means of connecting
     with great mutual benefit the most powerful parts of the empire.  Its extent
     is small when compared with Britain, but exceeds the islands of our seas.
     In soil and climate, in the disposition, temper, and habits of its population,
     it differs but little from Britain.  We know most of its harbours and approaches,
     and that through the intercourse of commerce.  One of the petty kings of the
     nation, driven out by internal faction, had been received by Agricola, who
     detained him under the semblance of friendship till he could make use of him.
     I have often heard him say that a single legion with a few auxiliaries could
     conquer and occupy Ireland, and that it would have a salutary effect on Britain
     for the Roman arms to be seen everywhere, and for freedom, so to speak,
     to be banished from its sight.  Here we have specific evidence that in the time
     of Agricola there were petty kings within the nation of Ireland.  Going back to
     section 14 . . . "So was maintained the ancient and long-recognised practice
     of the Roman people, which seeks to secure among the instruments of dominion
     even kings themselves."  Mention is made in section 11, concerning the early
     inhabitants of Britain, that those "who are nearest to the Gauls are also like them,
     either from the permanent influence of original descent, or, because in countries
     which run out so far to meet each other, climate has produced similar physical
     qualities.  But a general survey inclines me to believe that the Gauls established
     themselves in an island so near to them.  Their religious belief may be traced in
     the strongly-marked British superstition.  The language differs but little . . . "

     Publius Cornelius Tacitus: Agricola - 21, "Agricola gave private encouragement
     and public aid to the building of temples, courts of justice and dwelling-houses,
     praising the energetic, and reproving the indolent.  Thus an honourable rivalry
     took the place of compulsion.  He likewise provided a liberal education for the
     sons of the chiefs, and showed such a preference for the natural powers of the
     Britons over the industry of the Gauls that they who lately disdained the tongue
     of Rome now coveted its eloquence.  Hence, too, a liking sprang up for our style
     of dress, and the "toga" became fashionable.  Step by step they were led to
     things which dispose to vice, the lounge, the bath, the elegant banquet.  All this
     in their ignorance they called civilisation, when it was but a part of their servitude."

     Liberal education for the sons of the chiefs in Britain led to the coveting of the
     tongue of Rome, namely Latin; remembering, at the same time, that "One of
     the petty kings of the nation [of IRELAND] driven out by internal faction, had
     been received by Agricola, who detained him under the semblance of friendship
     till he could make use of him."  Part of the policy of friendship towards this petty
     chief of Ireland would have included a liberal education of his sons, leading to the
     coveting of the tongue of Rome: Latin.  The history of the times and how records
     were kept among the native inhabitants, is shown in Agricola 15, 17, 29, and 30-33.

Research Notes:
A.  Irish genealogies or names were capable of being preserved by each new
     generation of poets from at least the second century A.D.," on 'tablet-staves',
     as the manuscripts call them, the catchwords of many poems, sagas and
     genealogies."  Recent finds in the British Isles show that family information
     was preserved on "tablet-staves", or "thin slivers of wood" as early as 100
     A.D., in the British Isles, as noted by excavations at Vindolanda.  Material
     of the fifth century A.D. and before, indicates that it is indeed credible to
     assert the transmission of an Irish annals written record, as suggested by
     the internal commentary within the surviving records themselves.  Also,
     the Celtic Inscribed Stones Project (CISP), an on-line database, from the
     Department of History, and the Institute of Archaeology, University College
     London has evidence of at least one pre-Christian scribe, in Ireland.

Research Notes:
A.  Record preservation is noted by The Voyage of Bran Son of Febal to the Land
     of the Living; first edited, with translation, notes and glossary by Kuno Meyer;
     commentary on p. 116:
     "The great seventeenth century compilation, the Annals of the Four Masters,
     gathers up all that seemed most valuable and most trust-worthy in the older Annals
     to Michael O'Clery and his fellows."  He further states, "In this, the oldest dated
     form, we can discern signs of Biblical and classic influence.  If the traditions belong,
     in the main, to a period anterior to the contact of Ireland with Christian-classic culture,
     they have, nevertheless, been modified and added to as a result of that contact."

     A careful reading of the Irish pedigree constructs suggests that part of their formation
     was to legitimize the regional clan inheritance rights, within the superstructure
     of the one Ireland nationalistic goals.  As such, they of necessity, derive from primary
     source data, since a man without a pedigree was essentially an outlaw, with no legal
     rights or family standing.  NOTE: This concept is the same as applied in ancient Israel,
     during the time of Nehemiah and Ezra.  Some that returned to Jerusalem, " sought their
     ^aregister among those that were ^breckoned by ^cgenealogy, but they were not found:
     therefore were they, as ^dpolluted, ^eput from the ^fpriesthood.   And the Tirshatha said
     unto them, that they should not eat of the most ^aholy things, till there stood up a priest
     with ^bUrim and with Thummim."  Ezra led about 5,000 Israelite exiles living in Babylon
     to their home city of Jerusalem in 459 BC.

B.  Lecture X. [Delivered March 6, 1856]  The Books of Genealogies and Pedigrees
     The surviving pedigree fragments come from the central Monarchical Book,
     or provincial and other territorial records, filtered by later Christian scribes:
     "And not only had the Monarch his Ollamh for these important state purposes,
     but every provincial king, and even every smaller territorial Chief, had his own
     Ollamh, or Seanchaidhe [pron. "shanachy"= historian], for the provincial and
     other territorial records; and in obedience to an ancient law (established long
     before the introduction of Christianity in the fifth century), all the provincial
     records, and those of the various clann chieftains, were returnable every third
     year to a great convocation or feast at Tara, where they were solemnly
     compared with each other, and with the great Book or Saltair of the monarch,
     and purified and corrected where or whenever they required it.  As a very
     sufficient authority for the existence of this great Monarchical Book, in the third
     century of the Christian era, I may refer you, among many others, to the poem
     by Cinaeth [or Kenneth] O'Hartigan, on Tara, and on King Cormac Mac Airt,
     of which I have spoken in a former lecture."

Research Notes:
A.  Old-Irish-L Archives: "The Irish Christian sources are fairly clear that
     books existed in Ireland before the arrival of Christianity and that Christian
     missionaries caused these 'pagan works' to be burnt.  Supporting evidence
     for the existence of books in Ireland before the arrival of Christianity comes
     from a Christian writer of the third and fourth centuries A.D. - Aethicus Ister.
     Aethicus wrote a Cosmography of the World (Cosmographia Aethici Istrii),
     part of which was inserted by  Orosius Paulus in his 'History Against
     the Pagans' composed in seven books about A.D. 417.  It is stated that
     Aethicus sailed from Iberia and 'he hastened to Ireland and remained here
     some time examining their books'. Aethicus calls these books ideomochos,
     implying that the literature was particular to Ireland and quite new and strange
     to him.  He speaks of the volumina of the Irish as a noteworthy feature of
     the country.  If Aethicus was examining libraries in Ireland in the third or
     fourth centuries A.D., then clearly we have independent confirmation of
     later Irish Christian writers' and numerous saga references to the existence
     of such libraries."   St. Patrick is noted in the Tripartite Life, with elimination
     of the books of the druids.  History and Origins of Druidism - Google™ Books,
     mentions Druidic Colleges, with specific responsibility for genealogies and
     record keeping, going back to the time of the fleet of the sone of Milidh.

Research Notes:
A.  Ogham was the earliest form of writing in Irish in which the Latin alphabet is
      adapted to a series of twenty 'letters' of straight lines and notches carved on
     the edge of a piece of stone or wood, as so noted in the Dictionary of Celtic
     Mythology, by James MacKillop, published 1998 by Oxford University Press.
     Ogham inscriptions date primarily from the 4th to 8th centuries A.D. and are
     found mainly on standing stones.  Ogham inscriptions are scattered throughout
     Ireland, Great Britain, the Isle of Man, with (5) five in Cornwall, about (30)
     thirty in Scotland and more than (40) forty in Wales.  South Wales was an area
     of extensive settlement from southern Ireland.  In Wales, ogham inscriptions
     have both Irish and Brythonic-Latin adjacent inscriptions.  Each ogham letter
     was named for a different tree.  "T". =  The twentieth letter of the modern
     English alphabet is represented by tinne [Ir., holly] in the ogham alphabet
     of early Ireland.  "T" appears as three straight lines: "lll" above the
     foundation-line: _________ [druim].  Holly of the Old World often had
     bright-red berries and glossy, evergreen leaves with spiny margins, used
     traditionally for Christmas decoration.

     Edward O'Reilly, An Irish-English Dictionary, republished A.D. 1864,
     Dublin, Ireland, notes the 16^th letter of the Irish alphabet is:
     Tinne, a. meaning "wonderful, strange"; adv. meaning almost.
     Tinne, s. meaning "a chain; the name of the letter 'T'."  "T"  is
     the 16th letter of the Irish alphabet and ranked among the hard
     consonants.  Also, tin, s.f., a beginning, fire; [as in Cornish Tan:
     fire; Cornish Tehan: a firebrand; to light; kindle]; a gross, corpulent,
     fat [as in Cornish Tenn: rude; rustic]; also, tender [as in Cornish
     Tyner: tender], soft [as in Cornish Tene: sucking (too young to be
     weaned; Cornish Tena: to suck)]; thin [as in Cornish Tanau: thin,
     slender, small, lean].  tine, s.f., fire, a link; [the link, the constant
     attachment there is betwixt the tongue (which is the fire) of the
     eloquent, and the ears of the audience.]  tin or tion, v. to melt or
     dissolve, O'B.   tinn, adj., sick; inflection of teann, brave, etc.

103:   FERGUS (FERGUSA) MOR of DAL RIATA - [Fergus Mór]
         Fergus of Dál Riata: Dál Riata
         Family Information:
         - geography (location):
           Dál Riata: Gaelic overkingdom on the western seaboard of Scotland,
           with some territory on the northern coasts of Ireland.  In the late 6th
           and early 7th century it encompassed roughly what is now Argyll and Bute
           and Lochaber in Scotland and also County Antrim in Northern Ireland.

Research Notes:
A.  Old Testament Genealogies
     It does not appear that the current disproportionate genealogical
     evaluations of Irish records and sources shows proper respect for
     the value of the surviving records, (records not destroyed within
     the medieval cultural genocide against pagans and Jews); nor the
     "class of men called brehons, who were learned in customary law
     and helped to preserve throughout Ireland a remarkably uniform
     but archaic social system." [Academic American Encyclopedia]
     When "Saint PATRICK introduced mainstream Latin Christianity
     into the country in the 5th century AD, the system of bishops with
     territorial dioceses, modeled on the Roman Empire's administrative
     system, did not take secure root in Ireland at this time.  While the
     autonomous 'tuath' remained the basic unit of Gaelic secular society,
     the Autonomous monastery became the basic unit of Celtic Christianity."

     This is why secular, religious, Jewish and pagan records were grouped
     together, (and most importantly, survived).  Even after the Anglo-Norman
     Conquest, there was not an "effective centralized monarchy such as Norman
     feudalism had fostered in England."  The English government, by the late
     Middle Ages, only exercised authority in the Pale; i.e., Dublin and its
     immediate hinterland.  There were also the territories of the quasi-independent
     fiefs of the great Anglo-Norman lords, as well as the "arc of territories along
     the western coast of Ireland that retained Gaelic customs and remained
     completely outside English rule."

     Shlomo Simonsohn, Pontifical Institute of Mediaeval Studies, has an
     eight (8) volume work: The Apostolic See and the Jews.  "This collection
     relates the history of papal Jewry policy in the Middle Ages from the days
     of Gelasius I to those of Julius III." . . . (5)  From Vol. 1, #255; 18 Nov 1286
     "Mandate to John Peckham, archbishop of Canterbury, and his suffragans
     to proceed against the Jews of England in the matters of the Talmud . . .
     Copies were sent to John Romain, archbishop of York . . ."  This was part
     of a continuing process of confiscation, as, From Vol. 1, #163; 09 June 1239
     "Mandate to the archbishops of France, England, Castile and Leon to
     confiscate all the books of the Jews on Sabbath, 3 March 1240, when
     the Jews are at their synagogues." . . .; From Vol. 1, #165; 20 June 1239,
     "to compel the Jews in France, England, Aragon, Navarre, Castile and Leon,
     and Portugal to show them their books, and to burn those which contain
     objectionable material."

B.  Loarn mac Eirc at AllExperts
     LOARN:  Llywelyn ap Iorwerth Ancestor Table: Generation 23
     4587648. Loarn, ancestor of the Cenél Loairn branch of Dál Riata.
     [SFA; GA; R.162e=LL.336b (Rw.1697, CGH.329)] [Note:  Although
     the later genealogies make Loarn a son of Erc, and brother of
     Fergus, ancestor of the later kings of Scotland, there is no good
     reason to believe that the supposed sibling relationship is historical,
     as discussed in detail by Bannerman in SHD.  Loarn is given in some
     king lists as king of Dál Riata before Fergus (see, for example,
     "The Poem A Eolcha Alban Uile", edited by Kenneth Jackson in
     Celtica Vol. 3 (1956), 149-67), but it is unclear whether or not this is to be
     regarded as historical fact, or as a late invention of the Cenél Loairn.
