Likko doesn't even mention Aldland/Atland. According to the OLB the Fryan sailors called it "Atland", and apparently they were the connection between the Fryans and Finda. Hidde: Skrêven to Ljuwert.

Through the whole book you find x year since Aldland has been sunken, referring to the former history of the Frisians. The reason, that the sailors speak about Atland is, that they use to shorten words (as has been explained in the OLB).

NO-ID-EA Posted April 23, 2013 #3728 Share Posted April 23, 2013 The people Columbus met called their island (which wasn't an island) "Paria" : ORIGINAL NARRATIVES OF EARLY AMERICAN HISTORY THE NORTHMEN, COLUMBUS AND CABOT 985-1503 “No lands in the world can be more green and beautiful or more populated; moreover the temperature since I have been in this island,” says he, “is, I say, cool enough each morning for a lined gown, although it is so near the equinoctial line; the sea is however fresh. They called the island Paria.” All are the words of the Admiral. He called the mainland an island, however, because so he believed it to be. http://www.gutenberg...1-h/18571-h.htm The Admiral says that he was astonished at the bad weather he encountered in the region of these islands. In the Indies he had navigated throughout the winter without the necessity for anchoring, and always had fine weather, never having seen the sea for a single hour in such a state that it could not be navigated easily. But among these islands he had suffered from such terrible storms. The same had happened in going out as far as the Canary Islands, but as soon as they were passed there was always fine weather, both in sea and air. In concluding these remarks, he observes that the sacred theologians and wise men [248-1] said well when they placed the terrestrial paradise in the Far East, because it is a most temperate region. Hence these lands that he had now discovered must, he says, be in the extreme East. [248-1 That the site of the Garden of Eden was to be found in the Orient was a common belief in the Middle Ages and later. Cf. the Book of Sir John Mandeville, ch. XXX.] http://www.gutenberg...1-h/18571-h.htm - Returning to the journey, Friday, August 17, he went 37 leagues, the sea being smooth, “to God our Lord,” he says, “may infinite thanks be given.” He says that not finding islands now, assures him that that land from whence he came is a vast mainland, or where the Earthly Paradise is, “be[365]cause all say that it is at the end of the east, and this is the Earthly Paradise,”365-1 says he. [365-1 Cf. the letter on the Third Voyage, Major, Select Letters of Columbus, p. 140, for Columbus’s reasoning and beliefs about the Earthly Paradise or Garden of Eden; for Las Casas’s discussion of the question, see Historia de las Indias, II. 275-306.] http://www.gutenberg...1-h/18571-h.htm +++ I assume that you made a typo when you wrote "Gardeg"? Should be "Garden", right? Just checked , was a typo but not garden , was gardar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ald-land - Old Land, yes, but not the Old Land of the Fryans; it was the former homeland of the Finda. You say the homeland of the Finda was somewhere in the province of Groningen?? - I know how the sailors pronounced 'oud' ; that is the way how I (born in The Hague) pronounced it for a long time, lol: 'aht'. .

Abramelin Posted April 24, 2013 Author #3730 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Good job in finding all that again. How interesting really. I think that amber may have been so prized for a reason like this. Minoans visited the British Isles, a pretty sweeping statement. I'd believe it, if the Phoenicians had made it Gades, what would stop them going up the Atlantic coast further? Minoans are harder to believe but if Minoan artifacts have been found there, it's likely there was at least trade at that time. The mythology of Helios is imo at least one God bought from Scandinavia into Greece. The English word 'tin' is Germanic; related words are found in the other Germanic languages—German Zinn, Swedish tenn, Dutch tin, etc.—but not in other branches of Indo-European except by borrowing (e.g. Irish tinne). Its origin is unknown. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tin We know Mycenaean amber is Baltic too. ------------------------------------------------ Wouldn't you think Atland would still be submerged, or has it risen, or dried out? I'm wondering where this submerged land is in the middle of Asia that sailors could sail to. An interesting site about the word (and use of) tin: http://www.vanderkrogt.net/elements/element.php?sym=Sn = You know I think the OLB is a fabrication, so Aldland could be anywhere. If it had claimed to be about a many thousands of years older history, I'd say that Aldland was Sundaland, or the present Indonesian Archipelago. But even so, that continent didn't sank catastrophically.. No, I think the OLB suggested an idea running around in the 19th century, and that is that Eden was located on the Pamir plateau, that it got flooded around 2345 BCE (2194BCE according to Frisian Bible scholars), and that much later it dried up again. Sailors could sail the seas and then also sail up the Indus river, you know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abramelin Posted April 24, 2013 Author #3732 Share Posted April 24, 2013 (edited) The important thing is that the Egyptians were considered to be part of the Finda people, just like the Asians. The OLB used a simplistic way of dividing humanity into 3 'races', and that way of dividing humanity is a medieval thing. Simplistic, yes. Just look at the Mongols of Mongolia, or the Indians of India, or the Semites, or the Egyptians: according to the OLB they were all children of Finda. .

NO-ID-EA Posted April 24, 2013 #3733 Share Posted April 24, 2013 (edited) Unrelated but I saw it and liked it and thought I'd share it for those who hadn't seen it. A map of the North Friesland area in 1651 comparable to 1240. All that area would have been there in OLB times. Just found it very interesting. Maybe LUMKA MAKIA was there. http://www.geheugenv...NESA01:L01-0480 Same area the apparent finds connected to Bronze Age Crete mentioned on the BritAm site. Thanks for the two maps Puz , had not seen them before , lots of changes in the land under water , was trying to read the index for the red buildings on the map , the 1st looks like it says the biggest are Oppida , ( iron age settlements a couple of them disappeared , i think the next is temples , but cant read the rest . a place called Lunden in dithmarsia , and a large plot called Loen herde just under the chersonesi , that would be a turn up if Richard 1 , was Richard the Loen Herde rather than Lion Hirte , ..new name Richard 1 , new house maybe . In the Olaus Magnus map of (1539) i found Finningia Olim Regnum in one place , and on the island called Gotland , the Empori V Olim ( Emporium or market i presume )..........The Olim are something to do with the Jewish Diaspora , i think i remember , will need to look that up . Olim made me think of Olympus , Olympia , and Olympics , they were in Gotland (owned by Scotland ) according to Layamon , then you start thinking Olim-picts.

The Puzzler Posted April 24, 2013 #3737 Share Posted April 24, 2013 (edited) In êra tyda hêmadon Findas folk mêst algadur invr hjara moders baerta-lând, mit nôma ald-lând that nw vnder-ne sê lêith. In earlier times most of Finda's people lived together in her Mother's land of birth, by name/in particular Ald-land that now lies under the sea. = Anda ôre side wrden wi thrvch thaet brêde Twisklând vmtunad, hwêr thrvch thaet Findas folk navt kvma ne thvradon, fon ovira tichta walda aend ovir it wilde kwik. On the other side we were hedged in by the broad Twiskland, through which the Finda people dared not come on account of the thick forests and the wild animals. Mind you: this was in the time BEFORE Aldland sank. So Finda lived east of Twiskland/Germany. = Tünis wilde thrvch thju strête fon tha middelsê vmbe to fârane fâr tha rika kaening fon Egiptalandum, lik hi wel êr dên hêde, men Inka sêide, that-i sin nocht hêde fon al et Findas folk. Teunis wished to sail through the straits to the Middle Sea, and enter the service of the rich Egyptian king, as he had done before, but Inka said he had had enough of all the Finda people. So the Egyptians also belonged to Finda's people. What you mean, 'complicated'? = Vnder tha HIndos aend ôthera ut-a lôndum sind welka ljuda mank thêr an stilnise by malkorum kvma. Se gelâvath thet se vnforbastere bern Findas sind. Se gelâvath thet Finda fon ut-et Himmellaeja berchta bern is, hvanâ se mith hjara bern nêi tha delta jeftha lêgte togen is. Welke vnder tham gelâvath thet se mith hjra bern vppet skum thêr hêlige Gongga del gonggen is. Thêrvmbe skolde thi runstrâme hêlige Gongga hêta. Mâr tha prestera thêr ut en ôr lônd wech kvma lêton thi ljuda vpspêra aend vrbarna, thêrvmbe ne thurvath se far hjara sêk nit ôpentlik ut ni kvma. Among the Hindoos and others out of these countries there are people who meet together secretly. They believe that they are pure children of Finda, and that Finda was born in the Himalaya mountains, whence she went with her children to the lowlands. Some of them believe that she, with her children, floated down upon the foam of the Ganges, and that that is the reason why the river is called the Sacred Ganges. But the priests, who came from another country, traced out these people and had them burnt, so that they do not dare to declare openly their creed. = Thaet folk was navt ne wild lik fêlo slachta Findas, men êlik anda Égipta-landar, hja haevath prestera lik tham aend nw hja kaerka haeve âk byldon. They were not wild people, like most of Finda’s race; but, like the Egyptians, they have priests and also statues in their churches. You know.... maybe these Finns with their Magiars were not Findas at all?? The OLB only says they were not as wild as most of the Findas, but more like the Egyptians (who - see earlier quote - were also Findas). But why would the Finns with their Magiars be compaired with the Findas if they did not belong to that people? Anyway, we have Findas east of Twiskland, we have Findas in the Punjab/India, we have Findas in Egypt... And then add the physical description the OLB gives of Finda, the Mother: yellow skin with black hair like the manes of a horse. That doesn't look much like someone from Egypt or India, one automatically thinks of the Mongols. Hmm. I thought that they might not be but this really says they are, it also suggests that the mother's birth land is Aldland and is under the sea. Because from other paragraphs we know that Findas birth land is in the Himmelaia. In êra tyda hêmadon Findas folk mêst algadur invr hjara moders baerta-lând, mit nôma ald-lând that nw vnder-ne sê lêith; basically...the findas folk lived all together in there mothers birthland, named aldland that is now under the sea. the birthland is Himmelaia - so nearly all the Findas folk lived in the Himmelaia/Himalaya if so. That MUST be Aldland. I agree with you that is does seem to be the most likely from the context of those parts. OK, the Indus River you say? Maybe so. Kasamyr - it says is a plain on a mountain and where Jessos was born, from how I interpret it, at the same time as Atland sunk, so how could he be born at a place that sunk at the same time? I can see how that Kashmir might have been a sea once, or under water, because its name means 'to desiccate' which mean to dry out, the Aral Sea is desiccating. The valley of Kashmir was formerly a lake. According to folk etymology, the name "Kashmir" means "desiccated land" (from the Sanskrit: Ka = water and shimeera = desiccate). In the Rajatarangini, a history of Kashmir written by Kalhana in the mid-12th century, it is stated that the valley of Kashmir was formerly a lake. According to Hindu mythology, the lake was drained by the great rishi or sage, Kashyapa, son of Marichi, son of Brahma, by cutting the gap in the hills at Baramulla (Varaha-mula). When Kashmir had been drained, Kashyapa asked Brahmans to settle there. This is still the local tradition, and in the existing physical condition of the country, we may see some ground for the story which has taken this form. The name of Kashyapa is by history and tradition connected with the draining of the lake, and the chief town or collection of dwellings in the valley was called Kashyapa-pura, which has been identified with Kaspapyros of Hecataeus (apud Stephanus of Byzantium) and Kaspatyros of Herodotus (3.102, 4.44).[1] Kashmir is also believed to be the country meant by Ptolemy's Kaspeiria.[2] Cashmere is an archaic spelling of Kashmir, and in some countries it is still spelled this way. http://en.wikipedia....tory_of_Kashmir Earliest Neolithic sites in the flood plains of Kashmir valley are dated to c. 3000 BCE Kashmir Valley: Mughal emperor Jahangir called it "Paradise on Earth." http://en.wikipedia..../Kashmir_valley Earliest Neolithic sites in the flood plains of Kashmir valley are dated to c. 3000 BCE. Most important of these sites are the settlements at Burzahom, which had two Neolithic and one Megalithic phases. First phase (c. 2920 BCE) at Burzahom is marked by mud plastered pit dwellings, coarse pottery and stone tools. In the second phase, which lasted till c. 1700 BCE, houses were constructed on ground level and the dead were buried, sometimes with domesticated and wild animals. Hunting and fishing were the primary modes of subsistence though evidence of cultivation of wheat, barley, and lentils has also been found in both the phases.[23][24] In the megalithic phase, massive circles were constructed and grey or black burnish replaced coarse red ware in pottery.[25] During the later Vedic period, as kingdoms of the Vedic tribes expanded, the Uttara–Kurus settled in Kashmir. http://en.wikipedia....tory_of_Kashmir OK I think Atland might conceivably be associated with Kashmir. The houses were still being built 1700BC though, but it is a second phase, so some of the valley may have become reinhabitable by then.

The Puzzler Posted April 24, 2013 #3742 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Here's Olof again: In 1717, Swedish professor Olof Rudbeck proposed about 100 etymologies connecting Finnish and Hungarian, of which about 40 are still considered valid (Collinder, 1965). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uralic_languages He must have been pushing the idea that the Magyar of Hungary and Sami were related once...and he mentions Atland and wrote dictionaries I reckon this Olaf Rudbeck could have written the Oera Linda Book in his sleep. It wouldn't conform to his idea of Atland in Sweden unless some changes have been made of a possible original through copying or intentional change to reflect a more acceptable choice of place for the Finns to have come. I could see this one being 'son' meaning and it fits the svn - whereby the v represents a long o sound as I explained before. son - soon, zoon - a vein or offshoot. 'vein / sinew' *sï(x)ni suoni (suone-) soon suuń suotna suona san šün sən sən ɬan taan ín teʔ Suone. Sweden enters proto-history with the Germania of Tacitus in AD 98. In Germania 44, 45 he mentions the Swedes (Suiones) as a powerful tribe (distinguished not merely for their arms and men, but for their powerful fleets) with ships that had a prow in both ends (longships). Which kings (kuningaz) ruled these Suiones is unknown, but Norse mythology presents a long line of legendary and semi-legendary kings going back to the last centuries BC. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swedes Maybe like Suebi/Suevi - if we went with a Uralic meaning for this the name could mean 'the sons of' - - but alas, they give a Proto-Germanic root. The Suebi or Suevi (from Proto-Germanic *swēbaz, either based on the Proto-Germanic root *swē- meaning "one's own" people,[1] from an Indo-European root *swe-,[2][3] the third person reflexive pronoun, or borrowed from a Celtic word for "vagabond"[4]) were a group of Germanic peoples who were first mentioned by Julius Caesar in connection with Ariovistus' campaign, c. 58 BC I wouldn't be surprised if the root of 'Sami' is in this word: 'eye' *śilmä silmä silm silm čalbmi čalme śeĺme šinča śin śin, śinm- sem sam szem sæwə Guessing a connection here too: The Silmarillion is a complex work exhibiting the influence of many sources. A major influence was the Finnish epic Kalevala, especially the tale of Kullervo. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Silmarillion For Tacitus, the Suebi comprise the Semnones, who are "the oldest and noblest of the Suebi" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suebi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats a great story of the great lake at kasimere , the caledonian boar was the one that kasyapa conjured up to break the retaining walls , and flood the valleys below there is some connection to jews again as the kashmiri think they are descended from the 10 lost tribes , the waters flooded Baramundi , and Srinagar , and flooded , uri causing an exodus , (uri is also the name of the place in Switzerland where the pile village was found in the lake , and of course its nearly the name of the Sumerian city of UR .)

The Puzzler Posted April 24, 2013 #3746 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Thanks Puzz, and my condolences to you too. Thanks Abe. I wonder then if there is any evidence for any sort of flood in the Kashmir valley circa 2200BC, considering there is mention of severe flooding in China, it could be. I know we have gone over some of this before but I think the mention of 2 stages with 2200BC in between building stages, that the area was a former lake/sea and underwater might lend to it being flooded at the same time as China. Time for some über-Googling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abramelin Posted April 24, 2013 Author #3747 Share Posted April 24, 2013 (edited) Well, I'll try to focus on any clues on the Pamir plateau. Since the end of the ice age, Tibet has risen at approximately 10 millimetres (0.39 in) per year, at the same rate as the Himalaya. While the Himalaya rise can be explained by plate tectonics, the rise of Tibet can be explained as the isostatic rebound of the crust rising after the weight of the ice was removed. The amount of isostatic rebound since the last ice age is approximately 650 metres (2,130 ft). http://en.wikipedia....Tibetan_Plateau Glacial Lake Outburst Floods in the Pamir of Tajikistan http://www.ijege.uni...ili-et-alii.pdf "Attabad [Hunza] a site of prehistoric megaslides” http://pamirtimes.ne...ric-megaslides/ 1. The dam should be treated with the utmost concern. A dam of probably somewhat smaller dimensions in 1858 filled and failed catastrophically leading to a flood wave that caused immense damage — the second largest on record for the Upper Indus – reported to have had an 18m peak at Attock, probably more than 20 m at Chilas, and likely 10-15 m at Tarbela, scouring and carrying immense volumes of sediment. This is an 19th century article about the 40 years old Hindoo-Koosh-Pamir theory: Popular Science Monthly/Volume 38/January 1891/The Aryan Question and Prehistoric Man I The Hindoo-Koosh-Pamir theory, once enunciated, gradually hardened into a sort of dogma ; and there have not been wanting theorists who laid down the routes of the successive bands of emigrants with as much con- fidence as if they had access to the records of the office of a primi- tive Aryan quartermaster-general. It is really singular to ob- serve the deference which has been shown, and is yet sometimes shown, to a speculation which can, at best, claim to be regarded as nothing better than a somewhat risky working hypothesis. Forty years ago, the credit of the Hindoo-Koosh-Pamir theory had risen almost to that of an axiom. http://en.wikisource...ehistoric_Man_I 40 years old at 1891? That's around 1851.

Abramelin Posted April 24, 2013 Author #3748 Share Posted April 24, 2013 (edited) Now this is more like it: Ancient Europeans mysteriously vanished 4,500 years ago The genetic lineage of Europe mysteriously transformed about 4,500 years ago, new research suggests. The findings, detailed Tuesday in the journal Nature Communications, were drawn from several skeletons unearthed in central Europe that were up to 7,500 years old. "What is intriguing is that the genetic markers of this first pan-European culture, which was clearly very successful, were then suddenly replaced around 4,500 years ago, and we don't know why," study co-author Alan Cooper of the University of Adelaide Australian Center for Ancient DNA said in a statement. "Something major happened, and the hunt is now on to find out what that was." http://science.nbcne...-years-ago?lite Co-author Prof Alan Cooper, from the University of Adelaide in Australia, said: "What is intriguing is that the genetic markers of this first pan-European culture, which was clearly very successful, were then suddenly replaced around 4,500 years ago, and we don't know why. "Something major happened, and the hunt is now on to find out what that was." http://www.bbc.co.uk...onment-22252099 A new study of DNA from ancient remains provides further evidence that farming was first spread to Europe by migrants. It casts doubt on the alternative theory in which agriculture was adopted by Europe's existing hunter-gatherer populations, spreading via cultural exchange with neighbouring tribes. Science journal says a team compared DNA from the skeleton of an ancient farmer with that from three hunters. They found the "farmer" was genetically distinct from hunters. http://www.bbc.co.uk...onment-17857641 . Edited April 24, 2013 by Abramelin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knul Posted April 25, 2013 #3749 Share Posted April 25, 2013 That's terrible news mate, my sincere condolences. Would you believe my brother died last year, from intentional dehydration also, his body could not recover from an accident due to his liver damage so he literally starved to death in hospital, he was unconscious for a while beforehand and died in pallative care after decisions had to be made. I don't often share my personal life on the board but will do so this time just to let you know. I am very sorry to read what happened to your brother and in fact to all of you. It must be difficult for you to understand why this happened. I can only wish you strength ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knul Posted April 25, 2013 #3750 Share Posted April 25, 2013 I know all about it: that is how my mother died more than 3 weeks ago. At some point she (91 years old) simply refused to eat and drink. - But Gestur's word was vrsturven, and it has a perfect Dutch equivalent, verstorven. My condoleances. Even on this age you would certainly prefer a more human end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
