cormac mac airt Posted February 21, 2012 #10376 Share Posted February 21, 2012 It is YOUR early version of the "Oera Linda Book", ok? Much like every other post-Christianized version of Ancient Irish history to the time of Christ, it's a work of fiction. OK? cormac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abramelin Posted February 21, 2012 #10377 Share Posted February 21, 2012 (edited) Much like every other post-Christianized version of Ancient Irish history to the time of Christ, it's a work of fiction. OK? cormac Yes, I agree, but the difference is this: O'Conner claims to have translated from ancient manuscripts ("Phoenician/Scythic"), about 40 years before Cornelis Over de Linden claimed something similar with his ancient "family chronicle". Even the date of the Deluge according to O'Connor is close to the OLB date of 2194 BC (2170 BC). To me it seems an Over de Linden got inspired by O'Connors fabrication of ancient Irish history.

The Puzzler Posted February 22, 2012 #10382 Share Posted February 22, 2012 (edited) Gallic 1670s, from L. Gallicus "pertaining to Gaul or the Gauls," from L. Gallia "Gaul" and Gallus "a Gaul" from a native Celtic name (see Gaelic), though some connect the word with prehistoric W.Gmc. *walkhoz "foreigners" (see Welsh). Originally used in English rhetorically or mockingly for "French." The rooster as a symbol of France is based on the pun of Gallus "a Gaul" and L. gallus "rooster." http://www.etymonline.com/index.php?search=gallus From the OLB: Tha Gola, alsa heton tha saendalinga prestera Sydon-is. Dutch: De Gola, alzo heten de zendeling priesters Sydon's. English: The Gola, as the missionary priests of Sydon were called. תרנגול (tarnegól) m. Of Sumerian: Tarlugal (Bird of the King), loaned by Assyrian and onwards to Talmudic Hebrew. 1.rooster, c.ock, chicken http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%D7%AA%D7%A8%D7%A0%D7%92%D7%95%D7%9C . Right, so Sumerian and Latin seem to share this gal for rooster. The priests of Cybele, the Mother Goddess were called Galli as well, weird thing is, it was thier 'rooster' they cut off, becoming eunuchs in the process - it seems to have some relation, the Galli cut off thier gals...I dunno, weird. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I notice now Knul added some in about the Galli - it could have even been the priests of Cybele, the Mother, that became Celtic Druids, called Gauls, Galli, which was really the name of the priests only - the rest had no name - like the Magyar priests, the people were un-named as a whole, but the priests were called Galli, so they became all known as Gauls, roosters, they say it might be from a different etymology but I doubt it.

Say Puzz, I posted about those "Celts" a bit more than just 'roosters': an O'Connor in 1822 claimed to have read and translated "ancient manuscripts written in Phoenician/Scythic".

I know it is fictional, but the difference is that this O'Connor claims to have read ancient manuscripts. That is not just 'fictional', that is a fabrication very much like the OLB. The only difference is that O'Connor didn't copy the ancient script and language into his book. But maybe that is to be found in 'volume 2'... .

Abramelin Posted February 22, 2012 #10386 Share Posted February 22, 2012 (edited) To give an impression of that 'ancient Irish/Phoenician/Scythian' manuscript, here's part of the first chapter: THE WRITING OF EOLUS PART THE FIRST. CHAP. I, Eolus was Chief of Gael-ag from the year 1368 to 1335 before Christ. He gives the traditionary history of the Scythians from the earliest point of time marked to his own days. This chapter contains an account Of the mighty revolution, that put an end to the Scythian dominion in Asia and the foundation of the Assyrian empire on the ruins thereof; being a space of time noted of 3144 rings or years. O WISDOM, thou art to be preferred to all things, to impart wisdom is the duty of all men. He who possesseth wisdom, and neglecteth to instruct others, hoardeth what should be shared ; it is a treasure that may be lavishly bestowed, without injury to the donor ; yea the donor enricheth himself by the gift. Wisdom is the knowledge of truth direct without doubt. Hearken, my son, to the words of our great fathers; from them our fathers heard the lessons of wisdom in the words of truth, passed by them to us that now be, and from us to be delivered to those who are to come ; so, till time of this earth shall be no more, which will not be, till Baal shall withdraw the light of his countenance, the fire of his spirit from the children of this world. Many are the truths still hidden from man ; who can declare at what time the waters were rolled from off this earth ?none(a.) Who hath informed man how he was made ? how long his dwelling was in the bosom of the vast deep how or when he ceased to breathe in that element ? none, ( b ) Who hath disclosed the first dimensions of all things ? Who hath noted the degrees of their decrease? Who can tellby what means can man now discover the causes of the production of all things ? (c ) It is said Baal formed every thing from the earth, the water, and the air, and into man alone breathed the spirit of fire, pure essence of himself, the effect whereof is reason. Thus is it said, who knoweth how truly? with whom did Baal hold talk ?at what time did he draw nigh unto the children of men ? which one of the sons of man did ever approach Baal] who is he that ever heard the sound of the voice of Baal, that he could distinguish the words of his breath ? doth Baal speak aloud to make man affear'd ? who can tell his words ?none. Man imaginethAre the thoughts which he di- vulgeth to his fellow just ? For myself I ask, and none can tell, how came Baal himself? is he not composed of materials the same as all other living beings, his huge dimensions, his might and power, effects of combinations unknown to man ? Many are the things beyond the reason which man possesseth : he may fancywhat availeth fancy ? it is of no avail ; reason and wisdom reject such, as misconceptions of vanity. Man would be thought to know all things, even of the air, and for lack of wisdom flyeth to deceitful fancy, the vain, the ignorant, the credulous is one,wisdom, truth, and reason is one other. My Son,Do thy utmost to attain to the certain knowledge of things of this world within the scope of thy understanding. List not to idle dreams of airy fantasy ; contemplate ever so deeply on things thy senses cannot reach, all thy contemplations will come round to the' point whereat they commence; Where?They commenced in fancyin fancy they will end. Are there not things in abundance level with thy comprehension worthy of all thy care ?Hast thou not parentsthe father who begatthe mother who bared and suckled, tenderly reared thee up, anxiously watched over thy helpless stateHast thou none of thy mother'swombno partner of thy secret thoughts, hast thou no childrenare no friends thine ? Hast thou not a name to be spoken of now,to be remembered in after times ?how great the joy to hear the voice of praise raised in memory of our forefatherswhat glory to the racewhat an exaltation to all those descended from their loins! Hard hath been the lot of him, whose spirit hath taken its flight to mingle with its kindred eliments, no mention made of him in times to come--untoward hath been the mind of him, who hath not left a trace of his existence amongst menor to be remembered by reason only of his evil deeds. How glorious to gain immortality, by having infused a portion of his spirit into the children of man, to abide on the earth for ever. My Son,Pursue not phantoms of imagination, study thyselfcall to mind continually the materials of which thou art composedif much of them is prone to the sluggishness of earth, the instability of water, the inconstancy of nimble air, remember the fire of thy spirit hath power to controul and direct, if thou wilt keep it pure. Oh ! that man should suffer his passions to subdue his reason, the fire of his spirit smothered, all but extinguished,are earth, air, and water, more powerful than fire ?is matter more potent than spirit ? Why delighteth man to do what he condemneth in another ?Why doth he unto his fellow, what he would not that his fellow should do unto him ? The heart of man is proudhe coveteth power and pre-eminence ; he will gain them by deeds of evil, without reflection ; he listeneth to the voice of the seducer, the false flattering tongue that betrayeth unruled passions hurry him onfolly taketh dominion of such an one ; reason hath departed from him, his spirit was weak. My Son, -- Let all thy actions be such, that when thy bulk shall be inanimate, thy spirit shall live for ever in the hearts of men. My Son,Hear the tale of times of old ; hear of our race the renowned of the earth. What time our fathers marked not, is as the cloud that hath passed away, no note takenno memorial preserved: Let us speak of times measured by Baal in his circuit, as he moveth in his course to animate his children. How glorious is Baal, how good, how provident; doth he not produce the fruits that sustain the life of man ? doth he not feed, and warm every living being ? Doth he not give light by day, and impart a portion of his splendour to his dwelling place to illumine the night, and mark the seasons ? How terrible is Baal in his anger, when he sendeth forth his messengers in fire, air, and water, and maketh the earth to tremble. All elements are his servants. Hear of times marked I have the rings of our fathers ; they have noted the rings of their times : I will mark the rings of my days. Thou wilt mark those of thy daysso shall signs and seasons be perpetual. Attend now, my Son,Our great fathers dwelt on the left side of the sun's rising, beyond the sources of the great waters. Of days marked whilst Baal performed one thousand and eleven circuits in his course. Then did they spread themselves from the flood of Sgeind even to the banks pf Teth-gris. And when one thousand three hundred and four rings were completed, then did our fathers of these days pass to this side of Teth-gris, and moving towards the sun's going, reach to the Affreidg-eis, and they became lords of all the lands on this side; and on that, they outstretched their arms over all nations, with mercy. And Absal, he it was who went out before the host, from the land of the elements of which our great fathers were formed. And Daire was he, who conducted the children of the land to this side Affreidg-eisand the race of Daire were chiefs of the earth. (f) Attend again, my Son,When twice nine hundred rings, and thrice three rings were marked on the banks of Affreidg-eis, a multitude from the sun's rising, beneath the land of the first abode of our great fathers, poured in upon the land of our fathers that then lived, like unto a swarm of locusts, or clouds of burning sands, yea even as a torrent of mighty waters, that overwhelmeth all things. And the multitudes for numbers not to be counted, as the sands of the sea, as the stars of the heavens, speaking with a thousand tongues diverse one from anotherfierce and cruel, came over our fathers. And many of the Gaal were made captivesand many lay in death, whose state was happier than that of his fellow. And Ardfear, chief of the race, and all the heads of the people who stood in the presence of the chief, dwelling round about the tents of Ard-fear, escaped from the edge of the sword of Eis Soir. (g) And Ardfear floated on the bosom of Blessed Affreidg-eis, and the waters bare up his little skiff, till he lighted on the plain of Ard-mionu. And all that went forth from Magh-sean-ar dwelled in Ard-mionu, and Ardfear ruled that land as afore- time but in person. .

Knul Posted February 22, 2012 #10388 Share Posted February 22, 2012 (edited) This is what Otharus does not tell you: Brief van J.G. Ottema aan L.F. over de Linden d.d. 20 september 1876 WelEd Heer ! Vriendelijken dank voor de facsimile's van de paginatuur. Ik wil u dadelijk mededeelen, wat ik er uit geleerd heb, en dat is nogal belangrijk. 1ede sijfers behooren in den tijd van omstreeks 1600. Vroeger waren sommige sijfers nog meer hoekig 2 3 8. Met den overgang van de 16e tot de 17e Eeuw zijn die ronder 2 3 8. In het laatst van de 16e Eeuw b.v. de 1e druk der Kronyk van Andreas Cornelius 1593 vindt men ook nog de schrijfwijze b.v. anno 700 ende 36. Ik geloof dus den tijd vrij zeker te kunnen bepalen. 2e het sijfer van de laatste bladzijde 200 aend 10 (en niet, zooals men verwachten zoude 200-10) leert mij dat op het tijdstip van de pagineering dit de laatst aanwezige bladzijde was en hier de pagineering eindigde. 3e Hieruit volgt, dat toen het laatste gedeelte van het H.S. reeds was verloren geraakt 4e en dat het dus toen al een geruimen tijd was geleden sedert het H.S. door het slijten en breken der draden uit den omslag was gevallen, en in losse katerns en bladen daarheen lag. 5e Van die katerns waren de zeven eerste (tot p. 168) nog gaaf, en geheel, maar van het achtste en negende de ruggen al doorgesleten, ten gevolge waarvan de los liggende bladen al spoedig gedeeltelijkverloren zijn geraakt, zoodat van het achtste katern de twee laatste bladen p. 189-192 toevallig bewaard zijn gebleven, en van het negende alleen de acht middelste bladen, p. 195-210. 6eDe pagineering kan dus niet van Hiddo's hand zijn.* Hij pagineerde nog niet, gelijk ook alle Handschriften van dien ouden tijd zonder paginatuur waren. Als men een H.S. liet binden, dan werden de afzonderlijkke katerns ten behoeve van den binder voorzien van een volgmerk, bij voorbeeld de letters van het alfabet, zooals dat ook nog in de allereerste drukwerken uit het laatst van de 15e eeuw geschiedde, b.v. Het Friesch Landrecht, Anjamer [?]* druk 1460. Daartoe dient thans de signatuur der drukvellen. 7e Zulk een volgmerk ontbreekt aan de katerns van het H.S. en dit bewijst, dat zij niet bestemd waren om door een binder ingenaaid te worden. Hiddo heeft ze eigenhandig ingenaaid, en wist zelf wel hoe de katerns op elkander moesten volgen, daartoe had hij geen letters of ander merkteeken nodig. Gij hebt misschien al een dozijn afdrukken van het Voorbericht ontvangen, en gezien dat ik er nog een Noot aan het adres van B[eckering] V[inckers] heb bijgevoegd. Met zeer vriendelijke groete. *Aangezien de cijfers van de paginering met dezelfde hand geschreven zijn als de cijfers in de tekst, kan dus ook de tekst niet van Hidde's hand zijn. *Anjum Edited February 22, 2012 by Knul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neen, in plaats van haar te beschimpen gingen zij allerwegen, ook naar het heinde Krekaland tot aan de Alpen uitroepen: dat het den Oppersten God behaagd had zijne verstandige [wijze] dochter Minerva, bijgenaamd Nyhellenia, onder de menschen te zenden van over zee met eene wolk, om de menschen goede raad te geven, en opdat alle menschen die haar hooren wilden rijk en gelukkig zouden worden, en eens meester zouden worden over alle koningrijken der aarde. Zij stelden haar beeld op hunne altaren, zij verkondigden of verkochten [het] aan de domme menschen [zij verkondigden] allerwegen raadgevingen die zij nimmer gegeven had, en vertelden wonderen die zij nooit gedaan had. Door list wisten zij zich meester te maken van onze wetten en inzettingen en door listen en drogredenen wisten zij alles te bewijzen en te verbreiden. Zij stelden ook priesteressen onder hunne hoede, die schijnbaar onder de hoede van Festa onze eerste eeremoeder (waren) om over het heilige licht te waken, maar dat licht hadden zij zelve ontstoken, en in plaats van de priesteressen wijs te maken en naderhand onder het volk te zenden om de zieken te verplegen en de jeugd te onderwijzen, maakten zij ze dom en duister, en zij mochten nimmer buiten komen. Ook werden zij als raadgeefsters gebezigd, maar die raad was voor den schijn uit hare monden, want hare monden waren niet anders dan de roepers, waardoor de priesters hunne begeerten uitspraken. - - - - - Sandbach p.55 one would have thought that they would have called all the people together to drive us out of the land; but no, in place of abusing her they went all about from the heathenish [near] Krekaland to the Alps, proclaiming that it had pleased the Almighty God to send his clever [wise] daughter Min-erva, surnamed Nyhellenia, over the sea in a cloud to give people good counsel, and that all who listened to her should become rich and happy, and in the end governors of all the kingdoms of the earth. They erected statues to her on all their altars, they announced and [or] sold [them] to the simple [dumb] people [they announced] advice that she had never given, and related miracles that she had never performed. They cunningly made themselves masters of our laws and customs, and by craft and subtlety were able to explain and spread them around. They appointed priestesses under their own care, who were apparently under the protection of Festa, our first Eeremoeder [Mother of Honour], to watch over the holy lamp; but that lamp they lit themselves, and instead of imbuing the priestesses with wisdom, and then sending them to watch the sick and educate the young, they made them stupid and ignorant, and never allowed them to come out. They were employed as advisers, but the advice which seemed to come from them was but the repetition of the behests of the priests.

[...] Nu wij hen hebben leeren kennen, willen wij over hunne zeden schrijven, en daarna hoe het ons met hen vergaan is. Het volk was niet woest, gelijk vele geslachten van Finda; maar het is gelijk de Egyptelanders, zij hebben priesters, even als deze, en in de [nu zij] kerken hebben zij ook beelden. De priesters zijn de eenigste heeren, zij noemen zich zelf Magyaren, hun opperste heet Magy, hij is hoofdpriester en koning met een; al het andere volk is nul in ’t cijfer en gelijk, en allen zijn onder hun geweld. Het volk heeft niet eens een naam; door ons worden zij Finnen genoemd; want ofschoon hunne feesten allemaal treurig en bloedig zijn, zijn zij daar toch zoo fijn op, dat wij daarbij achterstaan. Voorts zijn zij niet te benijden, want zij zijn slaven van hunne priesters, maar nog veel meer van hunne meeningen. Zij meenen, dat alles vol is van booze geesten, die in de menschen en dieren sluipen; maar van Wraldas geest weten zij niets. Zij hebben steenen wapenen, de Magyaren koperen. De Magyaren verhalen, dat zij de booze geesten kunnen bannen en verbannen, daarover is het volk steeds in bange vrees, en op hun gelaat is nimmer vrolijkheid te zien. Toen zij goed gezeten waren, zochten de Magyaren vriendschap bij ons, zij roemden onze taal en zeden, ons vee en onze ijzeren wapenen, die zij gaarne voor hunne gouden en zilveren sieraden wilden ruilen, en hun volk hielden zij altoos binnen de palen, en dat verschalkte onze waakzaamheid. - - - - - Sandbach p.73 One hundred and one years after the submersion of Aldland a people came out of the East. [...] Now that we have learned to know them, we will describe their customs, and after that how matters went between us. They were not wild people, like most of Finda's race; but, like the Egyptians, they have priests [like them] and also statues in their [now that they have] churches [they also have statues]. The priests are the only rulers; they call themselves Magyars, and their headman Magy. He is high priest and king in one. The rest of the people are of no account, and in subjection to them. This people have not even a name; but we call them Finns, because although all the festivals are melancholy and bloody, they are so formal that we are inferior to them in that respect. But still they are not to be envied, because they are slaves to their priests, and still more to their creeds. They believe that evil spirits abound everywhere, and enter into men and beasts, but of Wr-alda's spirit they know nothing. They have weapons of stone, the Magyars of copper. The Magyars affirm that they can exorcise and recall the evil spirits, and this frightens the people, so that you never see a cheerful face. When they were well established, the Magyars sought our friendship, they praised our language and customs, our cattle and iron weapons, which they would willingly have exchanged for their gold and silver ornaments, and they always kept their people within their own boundaries, and that outwitted our watchfulness.

Otharus Posted February 22, 2012 #10392 Share Posted February 22, 2012 "de sijfers behooren in den tijd van omstreeks 1600" Translation: "the ciphars [pagenumbers] are from ca. 1600 AD" So what is your point? That Halbertsma, Over de Linden and Stadermann could not have made the manuscript, because the ciphars were added to it, 200 years before they were born?

Daarop werd hij met kruiden berookt, doch er waren tooverkruiden onder; want Wodin werd trapsgewijze zoo zeer vermetel, dat hij Frya en Wraldas geest durfde miskennen en bespotten, terwijl hij zijn vrije hals boog voor de valsche gedrochtelijke [op afgoden lijkende] beelden. Zijn rijk duurde zeven jaren, toen verdween hij. De Magy zeide dat hij onder hunne goden was opgenomen, en dat hij van daar over hen heerschte, maar ons volk lachte om zijne taal.

Whereupon he was incensed with herbs; but they were magic herbs, and by degrees he became so audacious that he dared to disavow and ridicule the spirits of Frya and Wr-alda, while he bent his free head before the false and deceitful [idol-like] images. His reign lasted seven years, and then he disappeared. The Magy said that he was taken up by their gods and still reigned over us, but our people laughed at what they said. When Wodin had disappeared some time, disputes arose. We wished to choose another king, but the Magy would not permit it. He asserted that it was his right given him by his idols. But besides this dispute there was one between the Magyars and Finns, who would honour neither Frya nor Wodin; but the Magy did just as he pleased, because his daughter had a son by Wodin, and he would have it that this son was of high descent. While all were disputing and quarrelling, he crowned the boy as king, and set up himself as guardian and counsellor. Those who cared more for themselves [their stomach] than for justice let him work his own way [themselves be overwhelmed], but the good men took their departure.

Abramelin Posted February 22, 2012 #10397 Share Posted February 22, 2012 I know my "Dutch" translations look like crap, but I use Medieval Dutch and even Old Flemish ("dewijl"). Check the "etymologybank" site. I only wanted to show that I can translate this OLB 'ancient Frisian', or whatever I should call it, by using Dutch and Flemish. Alas, I wanted to post a lot more, but 'duty calls' ( = nagging ex). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abramelin Posted February 22, 2012 #10400 Share Posted February 22, 2012 (edited) Discussion is about this: you say this, and someone reponds. But you just pour out what is bothering you, and then you simply hope people here will understand what you posted about.... in DUTCH. Menno, Dutch is NOT a 'lingua franca', ok? Man, jesus... If you think you need help, ASK. I am quite sure even an Otharus will help you if you ask him for a translation, and I won't mind either. But no one here loves that job, so no one will 'volunteer'. .
