Although a nice story, this should be labeled as theory and conjecture.

Thanks Blam. The author of this piece obviously makes up much of what is written there, because practically all of the "Sea Peoples" info is imaginary, and knows nothing about the cults of ancient Egypt.

To all -- please ping me to other topics which are appropriate for the GGG list. Thanks.

Is this the complete story? Didn't the Sea People wander out of the Black Sea, with metallurgy and chariots? Those were Celts.

It is almost entirely made up, which makes it a complete story. :')

Oh, those awful patriarchal societies just arose from nowhere (after 100s of 1000s of years of human prehistory) and oppressed the kindly, peaceful Great Goddess worshippers, who then, regretfully, had to arm themselves in self defense.

IOW, what a load of manure.

"This account would have the Gaels, then inhabiting the area known as Scythia, who left the northern shores of the Black Sea around 1760 BC and headed south into the Aegean and Mediterranean. They joined with others to form part of the Hyksos invasion of Egypt. They returned to Scythia for a while, then migrated again and for a few centuries became part of the Sea Peoples, who were so destructive at the close of the Bronze Age, devastating the Palace States of the Aegean around 1200 BC. Eventually they settled near what was later the site of Carthage, remaining there for almost three centuries, before invading and occupying northwest Spain. The last move from Spain to Ireland took place about 960 BC."

The Great Goddess is known as Scota. She married Mil ~ he's the First Man.

The place we know today as Ireland was called Scota by the first literate Celts from Galicia (in NW Spain) circa 700 B.C.. That name was moved to Alba in the 700 A.D. to 900 A.D. by Irish then conquering and colonizing what they called Scotia.

Later on, the Brits renamed Acadia as Nova Scotia in the mid 1700s.

Scota was renamed Ireland in honor of Ir, one of the "three brothers" who conquered Ireland.

If you ever wondered where that "we are descended from three brothers" stuff came from, this is the oldest story I could find.

The earliest Iriquoian stories focus on three brothers or cousins who are taken up in the sky by a prophet or shaman. They descend into different places ~ one to the North, one to the South, and one in between, to bring religion to human beings.

This is identical to a Gypsy story with origins in Bulgaria in the early 1400s.

"Mil" is also a Slavic rootword meaning "love". It's connection to "man" is pretty obvious.
