The Scottish Declaration of Arbroath

- The Scottish Declaration of Arbroath, written in 1320, declares that the Scots came from Greater Scythia. The journey described, seems to echo the one mentioned in the Scotia myth from the Book of the Taking of Ireland. Is there any evidence to support these legends? This video looks at all the evidential avenues available.
I am stunned to find this. For many reasons, and without this history, I recently concluded, the Irish, Scots, and Brits are the ancient Egyptians. I'm American, and my red headed mother was of Irish extraction and my father of British origin. Fascinating. I'll be binging on your videos, I imagine. Auld Boy, your video production, and narration is well done, and above average. Plus, very informative. Thank you for your work!
Hi David, thanks so much for the kind comments..Im pleased you enjoyed the video. this series has quite a few connections between the Celtic groups and the east. I hope you enjoy them and get something out of them. Thanks for watching and for the kind words.
Hey.
This is a great video. I cried during your reading of the declaration of arberoth, and the anthem.
When you got to the part about passing out of the pillar of Hercules, I busted up out of nowhere and felt like I could see everything.
It was a hard cry, with a puckered lip where I said out loud, 'i was there'.
I doubt it. I am 43% Germanic. My mtDNA group is R0, and is supposed to have come from the Arabian Peninsula, and is mostly found in old mummies from the New Dynasty, and.. oh.. wait..
Really beautiful work. Flawless execution. I love that this was my introduction to the history of the Scotts🔮🎶
Wow thank you for such a kind comment, I’m so pleased you enjoyed the video and thank you for sharing your story. It means a lot to hear the video resonated with you and it makes me feel a sense of achievement.
The old world certainly seems a lot more connected than initially meets the eye. I’ve done a series looking at the Norse Germanic tribes and some of their practices and mythology also seems to hint at connections with the med and east at some point too.
Thanks again for watching and taking the time to leave a comment, I really appreciate it.
Perhaps you were there, in a previous incarnation?
@@PsychicIsaacs Phillip k. Dick had a profound visitation late in life and wrote about his experiences in a journal compiled as EXEGESIS. I don't remember much of what I read in there, but never forgot his idea that reincarnation was only possible through genetic expression. This idea shows up in gnosticism, and DUNE. I wonder.
The truth is always there, no matter how it may be obscured. Keep up the Great Work.
Indeed it is. Thanks for taking the time to watch and leave a comment 😊👍
This isnt truth
URH,URH,URH,URH!.
This is the second vid' I've watched and enjoyed, and won't be the last. I see you are acquainted with ancient Greek, bravo ser. I'll try and remember to comment after each vid' for the algo' in the hope that it may contribute towards the channels growth (one can hope). Cool choice of handle/avatar. Good luck m8 and all the best.
Thanks for all the comments Jason, its really helped the algo for sure. Im pleased you have been enjoying the videos and like the handle / avatar. I appreciate you being here as well as all the support. All the best.
The unity of the descendants of the Scythians will be realized one day. Bless you, brother.
Thank you mate. All the best 🍷
I’ve always found the connection linguistically between the Vedas in India, Avesta in Persia and the Eddas in Scandinavia to be fascinating.
There are linguists out there who say there is an etymological connection between the Vajra which Indra wields and the Finnic Vasara of Ukko..which is somewhat analogous to Mjolnir 👌
Our family name is really "Esteva" and it traces to "Galicia," Spain. I visited Galicia as a teenager and I visited la Coruña. I saw the "tower of Hercules" and touched the stone statue of Breogan - the mythical father of Galicia. I remember meeting a beautiful Spanish Woman with Red Hair! I was extremely surprised at the fact that both men and women learned to play bag pipes and that there were more bagpipe players in Galicia than in Scotland and Ireland combined.
Hola Manuel, yo soy muy feliz hablar contigo. Yo quiero tener una semana en Galicia..es muy bonita y interesante 👌
Thanks for watching and for sharing your story.
I cannot thank you enough for this research and production! Mad respect 🫡
Thank you! And thanks for all the support, I’m pleased you enjoy the content 👌
The legend given in the history of Ireland mention that the Picts arrived from Thrace a few years after the arrival of the Gael, both of whom were vassal states of Greece.
Interesting, I’ll have to dig through it some more. It actually fits with some info I’ve got for the next episode, which is really interesting. Thanks for the info 👍

This is Geoffrey keatings histories, he presents all the legends known during his time, drawing upon manuscripts that no longer exist today. Another fascinating resource is Ralph Ellis’ scotia Egyptian Queen of the scots
The Picts were here before the Irish. The myth of Ireland was created in the 7th century by the Catholic Church
Evidence of people in Scotland the indeginous people the ancestors of the Picts are as old as the Greeks lol. Dal riata was Scotland to Ireland migration as proven by modern archaeology the crannogs are older as is the jewellery and ogham script on the scots shores then moves to Ireland as would make sense you cross the Brythonic lands to get to Ireland
Picts are the indeginous people and we are still here North East Scotland Aberdeenshire roots back to 12000bc recorded but we have always been here
Beautifully made video, really enjoyed it. The Irish and Scottish link with northern Spain is mentioned frequently by Irish, Galician and Asturian people.
It's probably true. The indo-scythians left behind bizzare red hair genetics in Afghanistan, Northern Pakistan and Kashmir.
They sure travelled far and wide. It’s fascinating. I love looking at the language too, like how the vajra and Finnish vasara are supposedly etymologically linked. Thanks so much for taking the time to watch and for leaving a comment 👌

Red hair is more to do with staying in the same for that long that you end up breeding with your generic family members.
@@auld_boythey are Tolkien's horse Lords of Rohan....all the way across the steppes to Mongolia and the urumchi red and blonde mummies with tartan clothing from the taklamakan desert...

Aren't the scythians the same as the slavs???
This current government and their education system would have us completely forget all this to blend us in their political agenda to nothing.
Thank you so much for this film. It is very well written and I am looking forward to additional information you may uncover.
Thank you so much for the kind words, I’m pleased you enjoyed it 👌
I find it insulting that so many nations of Europe claim to come from that cannibalistic savage tribe called Scythians.
If anything, Scythians entered history around 900 BC, while the Danube Valley had already an advanced civilization around 6000 BC.
There is also linguistic and genetic proof that the Hindus Valley civilization of around 2000 BC also emigrated from the Danube Valley.
Believe it or not, The Danube Valley is the birthplace of all European nations, not the cannibalistic Scythians.
I haven't quite made it to (modern) Galicia yet, but have spent some time in the far north of Portugal. As a person of mostly Welsh ancestry, it feels like the oldest of all homes. Very strange.
I love spending time in that region too..especially when an escape from our winter is needed. It’s certainly a beautiful part of the world. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment.
@robertolang9684 that’s really interesting because I have a linguistic connection which leads to the balkans and it’s also mentioned in the mythology..that’s going to be the next episode 👌
Bryan Sykes, professor of human genetics at Oxford University, said: "About 6,000 years ago Iberians developed ocean-going boats that enabled them to push up the Channel.
"Before they arrived, there were some human inhabitants of Britain, but only a few thousand. These people were later subsumed into a larger Celtic tribe... the majority of people in the British Isles are actually descended from the Spanish."
See Sykes is outdated and did state we have Iberian origins. But he is wrong as Bell Beakers replaced the earlier Britons by up to 90 percent.
"Arbroath" has two syllables only: "Ar-broth", with the "o" being long and the emphasis on the second syllable.
Cheers Janet, noted. I’m learning the Gaelic via Duolingo but feel I need real people to talk to, to help with the pronunciations. Thanks for watching and for the heads up.
Nitpicking, i know but.. "Gaylik" is the Irish and "GAlik" the Scots version .but both spelt the same... carry on the good work tho. Cheers@@auld_boy
@@lesblair5112 thanks for watching and thanks for the heads up 👍
Great work! With all the rapid conformity to technology, government policies, artificial systems like banking and credit etc…
Many people today just longing for the quiet and connected experiences of the ancestors. This we seeing rise in Scottish, Irish and Celtic pride and research.
It’s fascinating; no matter how much our nations change and we as people change… people will always long for the days of old.
To live in a community of people with a similar culture/history...where you can trust your neighbors and build a future for the young to thrive. A place where people have honor and respect for the Creator and our Ancestors. Sounds real ideal today. When I was a boy our small town was like that to an extent in rural America. Today the government and education push dependency on the central govt not family, religion or community. The multi-cultural and anti-white Marxist totalitarians have done a real number on the people of European descent the last 100 yrs.
Thanks for watching Chris and for taking the time to comment.

Many say that its not real, but the furyher back in time you go, the more abd more true it really is. The first people to ride horses, the first charioteers, went to the steppe then went west and never stopped going west. We are steppe men and that us why we serve the sun and sky

Thanks for watching 👌
Genetic studies have come a long way since Sykes' research 20 years ago; while the Gaels and Iberians do indeed share a common origin in haplogroup R1b, they belong to brother clades of the same branch. The evidence we have at this point seems to be telling us they both originate among the Dutch Beaker Folk, with the ancestors of the Gaels moving through Britain and those of the Iberians moving through France. They did ultimately come from Scythia, but the story of their travel through the Mediterranean seems to be either fantasy or garbled together with some other people's story.
One small correction too, Edward I's paternal line wasn't of Norman but Angevin origin (i.e Frankish or Gallo-Roman), the first of which who was King of England was Henry II.
Thank you, I used that source specifically to show the halpogroup info as it also showed two other geneticists which had spotted the same. This is setup as an episodic series which basically looks at the mythology, and investigates if there’s actually any evidence to support any of it or not. I’m going to look at some more mythology and some archeology next and then look at the proposed migratory theories in the final episode after that. I won’t be making a conclusion at the end, just presenting it for what it is, mainly for entertainment. Thanks for the heads up about the royal lineage too. I appreciate it 👌
On another note, I actually think the whole story echoes another and I’ll show why next. But as you say, could indicate the adoption of another cultures story.
Fantastic! Cheers from Nova Scotia.🌊
Thank you Tim! Thanks for watching and for the kind words 😊👌
I cannot wait for more. Thank you.
Thank you Nancy I’m pleased you enjoyed it. Thanks for all the support!
At least 150,000 people are apprised of the fact that the Anglos. Saxons, Scandinavians, Dutch, most of France. some of Spain and Germany and otherwise scattered groups are the descendants of Ancient Israel who then migrated to and settled America. Australia, Canada, etc. in fulfillment of Jacob's prophecy. This knowledge has been known since Tea Tephi and Jerimiah brought the Stone of Destiny to Ireland after which she married King Heremon.
Great info, looking forward to more episodes!
Thank you very much, more on this topic coming in the next episode. Thanks for watching and for taking the time to leave a comment 😊👌
Great job on this. As I listened I had a thought which may have no basis but I will pose it anyway. Breoghan made me think of the Ogham or Rune alphabet which is attributed to Druids typically.
The Og in the center of the name made me think of both Tir Na Og as well as Og of Bashan in the Bible. Og was a Giant and there is a theory that each time the world resets at the turning of the Zodiacal Age the next group is smaller than the previous era. That would take Tir Na Og which is commonly the land of the young and makes it the land of the previous age. Thereby the might men of renown from Genesis are Giants as well. Given that the Scots are the second tallest race in the world behind the Zulus would this mish mosh of ideas line up together to reveal anything of substance.
Regardless a fine job on the video. Thanks
Thanks for the insight, I’ll definitely be taking a look at the ogham somewhere down the line. I’ve also got some additional info which could connect a character from the Irish mythology to another..and I have found an archeological find which would back this up. That’s for the next episode!
Thanks for watching and for your insights. I really appreciate it.
I lived in an area of London that had a healthy Gallego demo . I was surprised to see so many of them looked Scottish including red hair , not typically Spanish .
Very interesting, thanks for that piece of info! Thanks for watching and for sharing your findings.
Interesting commentary and speculative theory but the video might have included some footage of Arbroath Abbey, still largely intact, where the Declaration was written
I’ll have to get over there and capture some footage. Thanks for watching and for the recommendation.

Taking credit for at least a couple of things that vikings had more to do with. And Kenneth McAlpin was supposedly half Pict.
Certainly possible. The cultures did seem quite interlinked from a certain period of time, so possibly some conflation may have arose during that period? And yes you are right, it is thought the culture was somewhat assimilated into his people.
There's definitely a bit of dramatic flair and storytelling myth in the Declaration of Arbroath, I always found the line about the Picts being 'utterly destroyed' the most obviously over-dramatised. Generally it's thought the Gaels and Picts had good mutual intelligibility in language and I don't know of any evidence of them warring, rather it seems they intermarried and were driven together as one to defend the land from outside invaders. But I suppose it's one of those, we'll never really know the truth, just speculations and best-fit theories.
I think the Danes have a similar migration story. Greco-Scythian.
Good ing . Just saw this on recommend and clicked

Question? If you're video is about Scotland why is the first section taken up with drone footage of the famous Emery Celtic Cross in Donegal Ireland?
Because it’s part two of a series looking at Irish mythology, and the Scythia story being quoted in the declaration comes from the Lebor Gabála Érenn.

Great video and information.
Thanks Charles.
I love such legends, from all sides - and once enthusiastically defended a connection between the Scotts and the Scythians, per Robert E. Howard's pulp-history, as many have done ever since - I still love to imagine that the modern genetic studies indicating indescribably complex interbreeding supports every fanciful legend to some degree.
Always found this document interesting for a few reasons, of course because its known that our ancestors did at some point arrive in Britain from the area known as Scythia by some route, but also (im no scientist but to my laymans eyes) when looking at a map of ydna haplogroups, R1b (from the steppe) is most dominant on the atlantic coast then gives way to more r1a as you move east. So could it be that as well as land based migrations there was naval movement from that region through and out from the mediterranean maybe establishing trade hubs on the coast, then permanent settlements from there. Sure its not the mainstream theory atm but who knows? So often you hear about a native tribe who supposedly have oral traditions of a volcano that erupted 15000 years ago and a lot of people kind of accept that, so i see no reason some groups in Europe couldnt have retained information orally from the bronze age or late neolithic before having it put down in writing in medieval times, the same happened during the colonial era when europeans began writing down oral histories of people like the maori as those systems of relaying information broke down with cultural changes.
Yes I’ve been looking at this too, and I’ve seen papers which show the same..a higher prevalence on the coast. There was a theory called Celtic from the west which postulates a similar idea to what you are saying. I have two more videos on this subject which seems to corroborate this idea. It’s a group of Celtic inscriptions which bear the name of a son of a figure from Greek mythology. The first one will be uploaded at the weekend. Cheers for watching and for leaving such an in depth comment.
@@auld_boy no worries mate looking forward to those next videos
The Scots need to find their ancestral power and quickly, I think, if they want to retain anything of their past or future.
I’m Welsh and we were told we come from “Defrobanni” the land of the summer sun.
Look at the deprivations on the people.
Our moustaches have travelled the world 😂
The Anthem sounds very Celtic. Also, Breoghan in Scottish Gaelic means little, pretty (one), a term of great endearment, but it could also mean that Breoghan was anything but small (even as "Little John" of Robin Hood Fame was a heavy-set man, who was well over six feet tall!) My mother's Maternal line were Pictish, her Paternal line was Norman and Flemish. She strongly resembled her Pictish ancestors, olive skin, green eyes, black hair, wiry build and wildish, firey nature that loved the Outdoors, and yet she was a deeply moral and Christian woman.
Dad's ancestors were Anglo Saxon Blue-Bloods, (Mum's family married into the Blue Bloods a lot as well...), but I married a Scottish Jew. His father's family were Danites that emigrated to Ireland from Northern Israel, about 1500 years ago. His mother's family were Livingstones and Robertsons (McRobbs), the Livingstones in Gaelic are called Mac an Laoigh (MacKinley), which means sons of the hero. Probably they chose the name Livingstone to avoid English persecution, because people with such heroic names as "Hero's Son" were going to be persecuted. But some kept the name MacKinley, and so it is to this day.
Mum and Dad were both strong souls, with strong natures, but were deeply in love and happily married for almost 50 years. Also, they maintained their conjugal relations until 2 weeks before Dad died, when he became too ill to function in that area. His last words were, "Mum, I'm starting to feel good, could you make me some silverbeet tea, then I'll get up (get out of my bed)." She went to prepare him this favourite drink, and in the 10 minutes or so that it took her to prepare it, he died! It looked as if he'd tried to get out of bed, and his soul left him at that moment...
Check my comment on here as I agree. The name has Og in the center and Biblically Og of Bashan was a Giant from a race of giants that gave us Goliath as well. Scots are considered the second tallest race behind the Zulus. I am Scottish on my mums side and though I grew up in the states my extended family is primarily in Nova Scotia since just after the time of Robert the Bruce.
@@markperron851 I am six foot tall, my husband grew to be 5'10" on a near starvation diet in Glasgow during World War Two, (this is remarkably tall for such a diet-what food he did get was carbs and not protein, mostly bread with some porridge and potatoes if he was really lucky, from what I heard).
If he'd had a proper diet, during childhood, he would have been well over 6 foot tall!
We had two sons together and both are 6'3" or 6'4" tall. Both my mother's and father's families were descended from giants, I have a first cousin (mother's side) who is about 6'4" or 6'5" and my brother (deceased) was about 6'8". Mum also grew to be 5'10" on a "Poor Man's" diet during the Great Depression, but she was good at fishing and lived near the sea, so this probably helped to feed her, and her whole family.
"Og" is a Scottish Gaelic word, meaning "Young". My husband's first language was Gaidhlig, although he'd forgotten most of it by the time he met me. Nevertheless, I learned to speak Gaidhlig, when I was married to him.
He died in 2003, at the age of 67 years, I was 28 and we had been together for 5 years.
@@markperron851 And there is also the Tale of the Brehon Seer. He was gifted with the Second Sight after his mother made a bargain with the ghost of a Danish Princess, in a Scottish Graveyard one evening. If you wanted to spell "Brehon" in Gaelic, you would probably spell it "Breoghan" and it would be said "Brahn" or "Brehn", in other words, according to Gaelic grammar, the "ogh'" group in the centre of the word would be silent.
There is an Irish hero named Bran (Brahn) as well...
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Voyage_of_Bran
This is called an Eachtrae, or "Journey Tale" and it is interesting to note that the one of the Gaelic words for "Horse" is "Each" (pronounced "Yach" and a "Master" (as in supreme craftsman) is "Eirich" (pronounced Yerich). Remember how the Scots pronounce "Ch", as in "Loch". "Eirich" is often transliterated into English as Eric, (name), but IMHO, could also be the origin of the Danish name Yoric ("Alas, Dear Yoric, I Knew Him Well...).
The Legend of Bran could just be a fireside tale, probably is a fireside tale, but in every such tale, there are usually threads of truth. For example, making a journey to a land with no Winter (Mediterranean Climate) and stumbling across an Island inhabited by only Women (The Mediterranean Isle of the Amazons?) Might such an Island actually have existed? It is interesting that this tale happens to be so caught up with a man whose name is Bran, might there be echoes here of an even more ancient tale, one that is actually fact?
Something to think about, I say. It is so interesting to study ancient mythologies and to rediscover the historical facts that gave them birth.
I wish you all the best!
@PsychicIsaacs thank you for sharing. What an amazing story. I am 6'1' but many of my cousins on my mums side are tall oaks. My Uncle Buddy was 6'5" in the eighth grade.
I have been recently been studying many linguistic similarities between cultures and how the meaning can shift a bit in translation. The Tuatha De Danann as an example. There is a middle eastern set of tall or Giant folks again that were the Titannu (where the term Titan originates) and the lost Tribe of Israel the Tribe of Dan seem to point to a bridge between the languages and myths.
I ascribe to the theory that history is written backwards and that the migration went from the Isles to the Mid East not the current typical teachings. It makes no sense at all that cultures would migrate North after an Ice Age, so after the Younger Dryas Ice Age I believe the people in the coldest areas would take the opportunity to move to warmer climates and increase their harvest. It just doesn't make sense to me that anyone would migrate to a harsher climate.
I do appreciate your comments about diet though. A big factor I had omitted up to now.
I am sorry for the loss of your husband but I wish you all the happiness and blessings as you go forward.
By the way I looked at your screen name and I have a lot of Mac Issac relatives in Nova Scotia. My Grandmother was a MacDonald and on Cape Breton Island there are a wealth of MacDonalds and MacIssacs. You never know we could be related!
That's interesting about Scotia meaning darkness/ gloom. Many of the visions are very dark and it takes time to suss out the imagery.
1 Kings 8: 12 Solomon said, "Yahweh has said that he would dwell in the thick darkness.
Job28: 3 Man puts an end to the darkness; he probes the farthest recesses for ore in deepest darkness.
4 Far from human habitation he cuts a shaft in places forgotten by the foot of man.
Isa 29: 18 On that day the deaf will hear the words of a document (a book) and out of a deep darkness the eyes of the blind will see.
A Scottish connection to prophecy... lineage? dunno! There is more to be revealed from darkness... and sleep well, Charlie Murphy
Yes it refers to the black Aphrodite…Aphrodite Skotia..if you have a look in the Wikipedia page for Phaistos Crete, the page mentions she was worshipped there too. I’ve got some more info which relates coming in the next episode. Thanks for watching and for taking the time to leave a comment 👌😊

Its a great legend. Being realistic I dont really think the people of Scotland today are related to Scythians. A lot of Scots are probably more closely related to the people of pre bronze age who originally occupied Spain and moved up the Iberian coast and western Atlantic coast , eventually reaching Ireland.
The concept of a Scythia origin may be connected to the idea in the bible, that the Scythians were related to one of the lost tribes of Israel. In the middle ages it was seen as important and gave people, especially of royal descent, great prestige, to describe themselves as being descended from people who came from the holy land. The land or people that Jesus came from. The people of the bible. When the declaration of Arbroath was written, it included a letter asking the pope for his recognition of the legitimacy of Robert the Bruce as the rightful heir to the Scottish throne, and Scotland to be recognised as an independent country.
If the pope agreed to this, (which he did) then it was hard for anyone to disagree with it. To help put forward their point, and argue Scotlands case, a long list of kings in a line of descent was given, which went way back beyond the first king of Scotland , Kenneth MacAlpine. It names lots of supposed kings going back to a line of Scythian kings. I dont think there is any real evidence of these names being really connected to Scotland, or if these people really existed. This was done to show how legitimate, and also how holy the line was. It was meant to show the Scottish line of decent goes back to the holy land. How could the pope say no to that?
Scotland was not the only country to do this at the time. Lots of other royal lines claimed to show descendants from the lost tribes of Israel, and other people in the holy land and bible. They did it to give them more legitimacy, and so their kings could say they were ordained by God.
In the Greek and Roman sources, the Scythians weren’t connected with the tribes of Israel. This really seemed to blow up in the medieval period. Plato says in either laws or republic (I forget which one), that in order to have a civil society, you had to tell the people their laws were handed down from god to their ancestor and they have remained unbroken for ever..tribes of people would then be named after this ancestor and they used a 12 tribe system so they could rotate tasks each month. The bible seems to take this to the next stage..by trying to relate all the people of the known world to various biblical descendants. Interestingly enough though, I have found one of the names in Irish mythology, in the Greek and this persons sons name also shows up on inscriptions in Galicia..that will be the next episode though.
Thanks for watching as well as taking the time to give me your input. Appreciate it 👍
🤔 Interestingly, my genetics indicate that I’m +95% Northern European (Irish/British, German/french) with a splash of Coptic Egyptian. No one knows when or where it came from. 😎
That’s certainly very interesting! I myself am largely of Scottish and Irish ancestry but I have around 1 percent from north west India which was a surprise! Thanks for watching and for sharing your story.
Scythian could easily be heard as “Skötia” evolving into “Scotia.”

There are Nuraghe stone towers in Sardinia and similar towers in Ireland as well as a couple in Scotland. Till Elizabeth I sent Protestant Scots to Northern Ireland they considered themselves one culture.
Are those the round towers? If so I’ve been having a look at them myself. Very unique construction as well. Thanks for the info and for taking the time to watch.
Most of the Scots who James 1 sent to Ulster were from both sides of the Englsh border and like most lowland Scots were Anglo Saxon
@@michellepeoplelikeyoumurde8373 l don't think this entirely true.
More work needs done on this.
Scoti tribe yes! But most of the early “Scottish” history was in fact created by the Britons who would eventually settle north Wales. The Britons are Cimmerians!!! Aberdeen, Glasgow, and Edinburgh are all Welsh origin names.

Why is everything in these islands originating in the east?
Why is there little or no eastwards movement from these islands in ancient times?
Is it possible that there was an earlier eastwards migration from these islands & what modern research is picking up is the later return of these peoples to their ancestral home in the British Isles?
Of course it echos the Scotia myth, it is based on it. To refer to historical "Ireland" is anachronistic as the island was called "Scotia" & its people "Scots" or "Gaels", no contemporaries referred to it or the people otherwise (see eg.

Perhaps you would be interested in the work of rabbi yair davidly who says that the scythians were part of the hebrew diaspora of the tribes of israel subsequent to the assyrian invasion of 721 BC.
They have a similar story for the origin of the scots.
Also the brithonic language has hebrew words and place names which are still used today.
Example, aberdeen, abergevenny, aberdaron, aberffraw etc
I have visited a number of these places and they are remarkably similar.
Sandy estuaries easily crossed at low tide.
Aber comes from iberi, a patronym of the word hebrew, many hebrews migrated through the iberian peninsula, spain and portugal.
The hebrew crossing of the red sea was a famous event in the old world perhaps the hebrews were known for this and that is why the term aber is used.

“People so-called “Scythian’s” were Cenral Asiatic Turkisheoples. Turks regards them as one of their ancestors. Saka Turks have been in many other geographies. The fact is that the second founding king of ancient MASAR ( so-called Egypt) was named ŞAKA and they were from Central Asian Tir/Turk peoples. Eg. The name of Sicily is from Turkish “Saka Ilu”means Saka country (İskit country) Latin name Trinacrian means Sicilian. And “Trinacria” when decrypted letter by letter TRANCI R IA is an anagram of Turkish expression “TURANCI” Scandinavian or Scandium for Scandinavia means “ Home of Farther Lord Saka.

Scotia was a daughter of King Tut, came to Ireland and married a king, giving her name to the Scot’s who came and defeated the Picts.
Scotias grave is a site in Ireland still. DNA analysis supports this somewhat. What is your opinion?
I think the fact Skotia is described as an epithet of Aphrodite that was used in Egypt is quite an interesting piece of information, as in the worship of Aphrodite, the person performing the rituals would have been a young female. I also have some additional evidence which could tie someone from the Irish mythology into a different mythology, and this is somewhat backed up by an archeological find..that’s going to be the topic for the next video.

@@Annatar they certainly never..before you mislead/mis-educte the world on ma countrys' history you must first educate it on you own. so, from where/when and how did the scots get to ireland?
@@brucecollins641 To be more clear, the people called Scoti by the Romans who were Gaels, were from Ireland and it's from those people that Scotland gets its name. They raided first and eventually settled and formed a kingdom called Dalriada in the 5th century. Then, simplifying history, these people and more like them, continued to come in and mix with the Brithonic-speaking natives (so, Gaelic Celts mixing with Brithonic northern Celts), such as the Caledonians and Picts. So the original Scots, who speak Gaelic, are in essence, originally from Ireland, where the Gaelic languages first developed as a different branch of the Celtic language family. The Gaelic language came to northern Britain with them in the 5th century. The name Uí Néill is from Niall Noígíallach, a historical King of Tara who died c. 405. So it's originally Irish

The Declaration was superseded by the Union of the Crowns, ie executive sharing and Act of Union 1707, ie sharing of legislature.
A declaration can't be superseded, an Act, Law or Treaty etc can be superseded. A declaration is a declaration, I do declare.
@@AzulinhoAzulinho A 'declaration' is an expression. It id being relied upon here as if it has constitutional status. It does not. The Declarations within the Act of Union has that authority.
The Arbroath is 'smoked'.
@@uingaeoc3905 *wrong.* The ACT of Union is the parliamentary implementation of the agreements in the *Treaties* of Union (there is one for either kingdom) in which Scottish constitutional law is preserved *in perpetuity* *_as a condition of union,_* I wouldn't expect you to know or understand this.
The declaration itself of course does not have constitutional status because, as I said, it's a declaration..! But what it does do, is reaffirm the ancient traditional status of Scots as the sovereigns (the crown) of their land, and the position of the monarch as *conditional.* That was later reaffirmed by the Claim of Right of 1689, reaffirmed again in 1989, and yet again in 2018 at the Commons. The Scottish *Treaty* of Union 1706 recognises this constitutional status as a condition of union, not the declaration itself, and really it is you who has conferred this "constitutional status" upon it all by yourself, without prompting by anyone else. Horrible Arbroath pun as well.

Scotland ceased to be a nation state, as did England, under the Act of Union. Under that Act various Constitutional elements of Scotland's continued - eg Legal System and the number of Burghs entitled to be represented in the Union Parliament, far higher proportionally than that of England and that only a fraction of the Peerage could participate. as Scotland was unicameral. NOTHING IS PRESERVED IN PERPETUITY.

Quoting Sykes gives this less credence as his work is well outdated. Bell Beakers replaced the old genome by up to 90 percent. Also R1B did not originate in Spain.. Basque paternal ancestry was replaced by the descendants of steppe peoples.
He didn't say that R1B originated in Spain though, he just said the same DNA signature (11-24-13-13-12-14-12-12-10-16) was present in the Irish, Basque and Galician population. He also said the same was noted by Dan Bradley, professor of genetics, trinity college Dublin and also Jim WIlson, professor of human genetics at Edinburgh University.
Its a sequence also known in genetics as the Atlantic Modal Halpotype.
"it isn’t long before I find this particular signature: 11-24-13-13-12-14-12-12-10-16. It is very familiar indeed. This is the quintessential Oisin Y-chromosome and huge numbers of Irish men carry it. | am not the only person to have noticed this particular Y-chromosome combination. Dan Bradley certainly knows about it, and it has also been spotted by Jim Wilson, who worked for a time at University College London. Jim is a native of the Orkney Islands, just off the north coast of Scotland, and he had noticed this same combination among his fellow Orcadians. It also cropped up, interestingly, in surveys of Y-chromosomes among the Basques of north-eastern Spain and among the people of Galicia in the north-west of Spain. Its oceanic affinities led it to be christened, not Poseidon or Neptune, but the far more prosaic Atlantic Modal Haplotype, or AMH for short."
James F. Wilson, Deborah A. Weiss, Martin Richards, Mark G. Thomas, Neil Bradman, and David B. Goldstein from university college London have conducted research on it as well:
"The Y chromosome complements of Basque- and Celtic-speaking populations are strikingly similar (Fig. 1). Haplotype 1.15 is also modal in the Basques and constitutes 41% of the sample, rising to 56% for the cluster of one-step neighbors. We call this the Atlantic modal haplotype (AMH). In each of the Basque, Welsh, and Irish populations, a total of 89-90% of the chromosomes are in hg 1, which contains the M173-defined Eu18 hg in Semino et al. (34), with the majority of the remainder in hg 2."
As far as Im aware, the Atlantic Modal Halpogroup is still used as a model..I can't find anything to the contrary and the journal I used lets you know if there are updates which superseede it and its still showing as current?
@@auld_boy The whole everyone is descended from Scythians idea is nonsense is just like Britons like Gildas claiming ancestry from Brutus and their name.
Regardless Sykes and Oppenheimer are out dated and the people of the British Isle and Ireland are not an unbroken continuity from Basque like populations after the last Ice-Age.
It was one of these that suggested R1B spread by these people and that it got to Britain by these Ice-Ace basque-like people, and that R1B originated in around the last Ice-Age, however' the revised 'Kurgan hypothesis' refutes this and puts the R1B origin about the Eurasian steppe. .
People like Francis Pryor used this now outdated evidence( although new-ish at the time) to propose that there were no invasions and that the Anglo-Saxons in Britain were a small elite and it was just Britons doing a culture swap about 2004 in his show Britain AD and 'the invasion that never was.'
a 2022 study says otherwise a supports the mass migration theory with the Anglo-Saxons making up to 76 percent of the Early English genepool on the east coast of Britain.
A better source would be the horse, wheel, and language: how bronze-age riders from the Eurasian Steppe shaped the modern world.
As for Ireland:
'A 2015 study using data from the Neolithic and Bronze Ages showed a considerable genetic difference between individuals during the two periods, which was interpreted as being the result of a migration from the Pontic steppes. The individuals from the latter period, with significant steppe ancestry, showed strong similarities to modern Irish population groups. The study concluded that "these findings together suggest the establishment of central aspects of the Irish genome 4,000 years ago."
@@auld_boy 'In some Iberian communities the native Y-chromosomes of Neolithic farming communities were almost totally replaced by the Indo-European R1b lineages39. For unknown reasons, the replacement of Copper Age Western European Y chromosomes made up mainly of haplogroups I2, G2, and H by R1b Bronze Age chromosomes was more dramatic in Iberia. This sex-specific replacement suggests a higher contribution of incoming males than females, which is also supported by a lower X-chromosome input from the STEPPES. Today this Y chromosome turnover is particularly pronounced in the Basques, which exhibit 87% R1b19. In the rest of Iberia the abundance ranges from 43% in Malaga to 81% in Catalonia40. The population-dynamic mechanisms that generated such a sex-specific replacement are unknown.'

@@redwaldcuthberting7195 He’s not saying Irish people are a continuity of basques, but that these populations came into contact at some point, with groups of migrating people who passed on the same genetic markers to each of them, as well as the proto indo european languages. Hence as the name suggests (Atlantic modal halpotype) they suppose this influx of people were following the Atlantic coast.
There is also the linguistic root: A Coruña , Galicia, Spain used to be known as Brigantium, you also have Bragança in Portugal which comes from the same etymological root..briganti in Latin.
The people living in these regions were known as Brigantes and people with the same name inhabited Briton and Ireland as well as the Rhine Danube valley. There are also records of the northwestern Hispano Celtic language in Galicia which is now extinct, which they suppose resembles the Q Celtic language, the same branch as Goidelic.
You also have to consider that the term Scythian was a broad term..like “Celtic” however numerous groups mixed with the various Scythian groups and would subsequently carry their halpogroups. An article published in the Human Genetics journal in 2019 states that the R1A halpogroup was found in Scythio Siberian, Altai scythio siberian and Scythians from Samara while the north pontic steppe Scythians carried the R1B halpogroup.
@@auld_boy But he did say elsewhere that Britons came from that area, Biscay.
Quotes the the article in the Evening Standard:
Scientists have discovered the British are descended from a tribe of Spanish fishermen. DNA analysis has found the Celts - Britain's indigenous population - have an almost identical genetic "fingerprint" to a tribe of Iberians from the coastal regions of Spain who crossed the Bay of Biscay almost 6,000 years ago.
'But Bryan Sykes, professor of human genetics at Oxford University, said: "About 6,000 years ago Iberians developed ocean-going boats that enabled them to push up the Channel.
"Before they arrived, there were some human inhabitants of Britain, but only a few thousand. These people were later subsumed into a larger Celtic tribe... the majority of people in the British Isles are actually descended from the Spanish."
'But the Celtic clan is also strongly represented elsewhere in the British Isles. "Although Celts have previously thought of themselves as being genetically different from the English, this is emphatically not the case," said Professor Sykes.

This hurts my brain in the way that Ken Wheeler told of how a tribe of skull cup takers had a metaphysical sage rise from among them, Sakimuna, the Buddha, in the Classical period of Greece. Phonetically, the land "swallowing" the people in Scotland from Schyth-land fits. Where the vowel goes traces a path. And everyone in question is Aryan I assume, before watching. A Scythian Buddha at one time and a tribe that became Scots coming from the same place is a real story. It could well be true.
I read somewhere that Sakimuna means “sage of the saka”..not sure how true that is though.
@@auld_boy I take Ken's authority on this. The same "S" root applies. The Scythians were Indo-Iranic step archers who roamed a vast area.
The Buddah being Scythian is counterintuitive, but the Kukiz in India were taking body part trophies 100 years ago, now they're good Christians. Peoples who aren't squeamish grow up quick.

This is a hatstand documentary based on a mythical/pseudo historical story. Picts and Scots do not have a Scythian origin. Their origins were exactly the same as all other indigenous white Europeans. The nearest thing to a Scythian origin of Picts and Scots was the fact that the proto Indio-Europeans - the Yamnaya lived on the Russian Stepps. There is scientific evidence based on DNA sampling and Carbon14 isotopes and archaeological discoveries.
... Spain inhabitants by savage tribes ... The Celti - Iberian or Basque???
It could be referencing those who didn’t speak Latin..as the term barbarian was first used to designate non Greeks for example. Just a guess though.
Well the only time there was such connection to Scythia was the invasion of Bell Beaker people that in their turn came from the steppes of Ukraine and Southern Russia (Proto-Indo-European speaking Yamnaya/Western Steppe Herders). Maybe Scots had old stories about the wanderings of a the Indo-European speaking peoples. They arrived in Britain 500 years after they left "Scythia" thou.
Yes there were later movements from the Middle East to Scotland but there is much more to the story and the Scythians were originally from Ireland/Scotland. The theory goes that the red/ blond haired Tuatha de came to Ireland from hypoborea after the flood and settled here. They travelled the world via the Phoenicians where they set up Colonies in Heliopolis, India, mesoamerica, Uppsala, Carthage, Middle East and Rome and were the spark for these civilisations. Sanskrit is almost identical to Gaelic as is Hebrew Algonquin. The first Pharaoh Menses is buried in Ireland in Knockmanny as is Akhenaton’s daughter Scota (Scotland) and tea Tephi. Thoth (similar to Tuatha) was a blue eyed god called the westerner. The Egyptian god Set or Seth was exiled from Egypt and returned to ‘the land of the ancestors in the West’. Kukulkan the bearded traveller from the east of the Aztec calendar has an almost identical name to CuChulain the Irish warrior and Demi-god. There are hundreds of mummies with red hair including Ramses and Nefertiti and 5 other pharaohs. Tutankhamen’s dna is from the ‘British isles’ and not Egyptian the news report is on YT. The Irish and Scots have some of the highest rates of rheeses negative blood in the world. Pythagoras was taught by the Irish Druid Abaris. The Greeks called the Irish ‘Ogygia’ meaning the ancient ones. The Greeks also taught that the oracle at Delphi was started by hypoborean druids Pagasis Agyeus and Olen. This is taken from the 3 ranks of Irish druids Bag-ois Agh-is and Ollam. There are hundreds of proofs in the book the Irish origins of civilisation. Much has been destroyed and suppressed by the crown and Rome but the clues are still there.

Of course the declaration's explanation of Scottish origin echos the Scotia myth, it is based on it. To refer to historical "Ireland" is anachronistic as the island was called "Scotia" & its people "Scots" or "Gaels", no contemporaries referred to it or the people otherwise (see eg. Bede). According to the "book of invasions", "Leabhar Gabhála Éireann", they were the last people to conquer that island. Until recent historical times it was known as "Scotia Major" while modern Scotland was "Scotia Minor". "Ireland" means "western land", "Alba" the east, modern Scotland was granted sole use of the name, pre-reformation, by the pope 16th century.
