Well Said Scotsman

I was trying to figure out how we had the North Atlantic Celt haplogroup DF49 predominantly found in Ireland, yet we are French with Danish DNA. Turns out Rollo the Danish Viking and his men came out of the isles and into Normandy rather than directly from Scandinavia. He didn’t cross from Scandinavia to France. But from Dublin, Isle of Man, maybe East Anglia. It’s known that most of the Norwegian raiders came from Dublin or Isle of Man. You can learn more “Annales de Normandie” Michel DE Bouard. I will post more as well. Thank you to Gervin FitzThomas for bringing me this information. Gervin : Small precision (needed confirmation and discussion): depending if Fader was Danish or Norwegian. • Danish: he most likely came from East Anglia to Normandy. Which is really easy (1 day of travelling) • Norwegian: He could come from Dublin or Isle of Man but it could take something like 2-3 days of sailing (not impossible but longer and most dangerous).

I'm a Norse-Gael 🇮🇪🇧🇻💪🏻The Norse-Gaels (Old Irish: Gall-Goídil; Irish: Gall-Ghaeil; Scottish Gaelic: Gall-Ghàidheil, 'foreigner-Gaels') were a people of mixed Gaelic and Norse ancestry and culture. They emerged in the Viking Age, when Vikings who settled in Ireland and in Scotland became Gaelicised and intermarried with Gaels.

It's common knowledge the first Scythian king was Hercules, who was called Shimson in his native tongue. The tribe of Dan, also called Tuatha De Dannani, was Samsons tribe. I come from a line of lost Hebrew kings who, while reigning in Scythia, turned into the Aryans, held a stranglehold over the opium trade, made leather from the skin of their dead enemies, and at times killed anyone over 60 in their sleep to prevent the elderly from enslaving the young. I have a pure Gaelic heritage and my Scottish clan is so inbred with the Wulfings that we are considered Nordic in heraldry. Despite my ancestors intensely colorful past, I am still honored to be a descendant of the first King of Scotland.

It can mean 'people of the woods' but also 'people of the letters' since letter/woods are interconnected in both Britain and Ireland, This may explain why it was taken on by Gaelic people refering to the Latin seanchlo or Ogham scripts.

It's unlikely the Romano-Britons were calling these sea raiders men of letters. It's possible that the Irish adopted Goidel because they had no universal name for themselves and so took the word being used by the Romano-British/Welsh clergy who converted Ireland to Christianity. As you say, it's possible they accepted the term because it fitted in with something already part of their culture such as a reverence for wild spaces and equating wisdom with that. The Welsh "hero" Gwydion contains the same word gwyd meaning wood. The -ion part is reduced from genos meaning born of. Supposedly there is an old Irish cognate with Fidgen but I've not come across a character with that name yet. In Gallo-Roman religion there is a Mercury Uiducos where Uidocos is cognate with Gwydion, the -cos part coming from aco which has a similar meaning to genos. So there is a long enduring and widespread association of wood with the divine. Thinking about it, it's possible the Christian Romano-Britons used Gwyddel to refer to the Irish because they were pagans, ie people of the woods/wild spaces rather than because they behaved in a wild (raiding) fashion. The Irish did establish a type of Danelaw in parts of western Britain so they were the ruling class for generations. The Welsh region of Gwynedd is named after them, the name coming from the same root as Fenian.

@@Catubrannos Thanks for the reply, i do agree with what you said, thinking about it they (we Irish) may have called ourselves in the positive rather than in the negative like the Romans would have. I do think ogham occured around the same time as 'gael' but it could very well be what you said. Yes that 'Fidgen/Fiodhgein' had me thinking for a long time, all i have come up with is a tribe named for Daire (Dagda?) that broke into the Fidgenti - possibly an alternative for Daire hence Dagda, however i would need to look into that much more when i have the time. you can find 'him' on wikipidia as Ui Fidgenti, I never knew that about Gwynedd or Fenian, its very interesting!

@richern2717

All I could find is the evidence of remains of polled individual dating to around the 600s AD. Since polled cattle in Europe seems to have originated in Slovakia and Germany 6000 BC. in the Linear Beaker Culture according to the latest studies I wondered if this could be the precise route by which the Ancestors of the Later Irish Bell Beaker people migrated ? However since 6000 BC the polled gene could have spread far and wide and with the Earliest Farmers into Ireland. Just wondering if there is any Myths or legends which mentions Polled Cattle that could maybe give a clue ?

@Cormac Mac donnacha Makes sense, black and blue were also used interchangeably, an odd example is a black man/ fear gorm is referred to as a blue man when translated to english. But it could be by sheer coincidence that the word for Devil/Demon was fear dubh/ black man so it was changed accordingly. Even though there is no link the ancient Greeks described the oceans, seas or any body of water as 'black' despite having some of the most picturesque blue coastlines within their lands. A good modern example would be how those who mainly live within anglophone countries refer to green grapes as white grapes.

Celticised ?? If Gaelic and Celtic in general grew out of Indo-European Dialects spoken by the Beaker Folk how precisely were they Celticised ?

I see that you are not acquainted with the latest genetic evidence. Genetic Studies of 2015 till 2020 already proved that there was a major replacement of peoples. People from Central Europe migrated into Britain, Ireland and Northern France and parts of Switzerland during the Late Neolithic/Early Bronze Age and replaced the previous inhabitants mostly. These people were linked to the Central European Corded Ware and Lowland Single Grave Cultures. Their direct descendants were the Bell Beaker people. That is what the genes say... During the Late Bronze Age and Early Iron Age Nothing Significant happened Genetically that could point to a population migration from Hallstatt or an even earlier Urnfield migration...So there had to be some other way of transfer of Culture or Language that did not involve migration of a population or a Military Elite. This only leaves us with one possibility. Celtic evolved out of closely related Local Dialects in France, Britain and Ireland from people who were present in that area from at least as early as the Middle Bronze Age.

The hunter gatherer Britains had dark skin and blue eyes. They had been wandering round europe for thousands of years. In 4000bc people arrived from Iberia originating from Turkey, they had light brown skin black hair and brown eyes. The brought farming, they built the first henge at stonehenge as well as long barrows. About 2500BC the bell beakers arrived and built the stones of stone henge, but then it seems a second wave from Iberia came about 500BC who became the welsh, Picts and Irish celts. I wonder if they were genetically similar to the first wave of Iberians. It is possible that the celts and germanics originated from the Yamnayas who migrated from the eurasian steppe from 4000bc because their cultures are similar. celtic was a culture that spread with out a significant movement of people. Some people think it is best to call celts a culture rather than an ethnicity.

So i just read an article that is now stating that the megalith culture was started by western hunter gatherers in Paris who fought back against the male farmers from turkey, kept their women and wiped them out. and they were then wiped out by the bell beakers who were violent and had more advanced technology.

The Gaels were originally the “Brigantes”. These peoples sprung up around the Copper / Tin trade in the late Bronze Age, between The North Western Iberian Peninsula, South West Ireland, South East Ireland, North West Wales, Cornwall and Brittany. “Gael” is a later name applied to these peoples, for the Brigantes of Ireland.

Scott wasn't a derogatory term it was old latin the pope called the country meaning Irishman. There is no real Scots Gaelic it's Gaelic the language of the Gaels. The Scots are Picts. Fenian comes from Phoniecan when they left the desert from the south after conquering all of Arabia. They left a city called Eridu and another called Eriu the first name for Ireland. I don't know what it is with Americans and thinking the Irish and Scots are so close. Not since the dalriada has Ireland ruled Scotland. Ever since the trouble in Ireland has been between the Protestant Scots and the Irish.. Can't say Ireland is sectarian as they try make out as most of its Patriots fighting Britain being protestant men. That's why they refer to them as the United Irishmen. It's Scots loyalists causing all the trouble. Fight for Irish land and wouldn't fight for their own. Plantagonists they were called to work Irish land and force the Irish out of Ireland. Wrong effect as you only have to look at the Irish in Glasgow. There is no real Scots Gaelic as being Pictish they all spoke pict. Funny the English painted themselves as well. They never even wore the klit. The Irish feiledh mór it's called the long kilt now to distinguish between the one an Englishman invented late 1700s. Don't know your own history.

Ireland did not exist in the 1st to 5th century it was called Scotia as in Scotland major and the people the Scotii as in Scots appears the Irish wiped out the original inhabitants of what is today's Ireland just check Wikipedia under Scot as in Romans and Greek descriptions
