PinGGG!............
I don’t know about Egyptians VISITING the British isles. But a fairly recent discovery confirmed a suspicion we’ve had for years that tin from Britannia was used in the Middle East for bronze.
I can see that. It’s all coastline travel, up and down.
No, but the empty whiskey bottles might be a clue.
’ve studied things Egyptic,
Those writings weird and cryptic,
Upon the tombs that dot Sahara’s sands.
I’ve solved each strange inscription
Left by each wise Egyptian
And hold the mystic secret in my hands.
The Irish were Egyptians long ago
Just read between the lines and you will know.
CHORUS:
It must have been the Irish who built the Pyramids
For no one else could carry up the bricks.
It must have been a Doyle
Who dug the river Nile
For no one but an Irishman would fight a crocodile.
I think these Micks were Turks, Mohammedans and Ghurks
They speak of “Irish Turkey” till today.
Cleopatra was a colleen who came from Connmara
She lost her nationality while roaming in Sahara
So all the Hooligans and all the Dooligans
Must have been Egyptians long ago.
Chorus
Now every Houlihan once drove a caravan.
I’ll say the same for every Mac and O.
And when Moses went to Egypt and saw those Irish faces,
He took the name O’Callahan and changed it to O’Asis
So all the Hooligans and all the Dooligans
Must have been Egyptians long ago.
I love this but the latest “discovery” reported in the article is from 2015 :(
Walk Like an Irishman.
One word, Benjy: Tin!
some say they are a lost tribe of Israel
There was a large Celtic population in the Iberian Peninsula during the late Bronze era and early Iron era (The Emerald Isle is located directly north of the Iberian Peninsula by sea.) During that same time period the Phoenicians and other eastern Mediterranean civilizations explored and settled the Iberian Peninsula. I would be shocked if the Irish do not have Egyptian DNA — Not because the Egyptians settled in or even explored Ireland, but because the Celts and Egyptians cohabitated the Iberian Peninsula.
After knife attack leaves 3 children injured, violent clashes break out in Dublin
Notice how the headline's breathless news is about the "violent clashes" and not the outrageous stabbing of schoolchildren by an immigrant? The Irish government followed up with a crack-down against the Irish for any and all demonstrating in response to the stabbings.
It’s the other way around...
