>Tuatha de Danann

Other writers say it relates to "Tribe of Dan". Some of the early Tribe of Dan bailed out of Egypt (along with some of the Tribes of Judah and Asher) when things were getting hot there for Abrahams descendents. This is before those 12 Tribes left for Palestine about 1415 BC. These "early leavers" traveled to and set up colonies in Spain and Ireland.

These early Danites should also not be confused with the major travels of the Tribe of Dan later, after which are named the Danube River, and the Dneiper and others, and after which the nation Denmark is named. The Danites were key in the peopleing of all of Scandinavia.

Also, the book of Jeremia discusses in some detail the later travel of the Prophet Jeremia, eventually ending up in what is believed to be Ireland. (Land of "jerries",etc. .)" It's a long story.

(Note: I'm no expert on Irish history, but was interested enough to spend a Post-Doctoral summer at Trinity College Dublin a few years ago, studying Ancient Irish History.)

Yeah, and their brothers carried the sceptre to the British Isles. Is that you, Herbert W. Armstrong? Jeesh, I thought you died, but damned if you won't go away.

There is no bona-fide evidence that Hebrews peopled Scandinavia or any other Northern European land. It's possible that a few traders, sailors and adventurers from Palestine made their way to those lands, but there is no evidence of a wholesale migration.

Tuatha de Danann

Dana, or Danu, was a Celtic goddess associated with death. Tuatha de Danann means "the people of Dana."
