The Romans
introduced the worship of Shiva Lingam to European countries. Why?
I wanted to know more about these Irish
and I found some really interesting things out of this exercise.
So, we begin with the Irish Goddess Danu.
I find that this Irish Goddess Danu is the SAME name as
the Vedic/Hindu Goddess Danu! So, the Irish kept the same name as
the Hindus. Amazing!
Danu is one of the wives of the Vedic GOD Kashyapa.
·
Danu (Sanskrit: दनु, IAST: Danu) is a Hindu
primordial goddess. She is mentioned in the Holy text, Rigveda, to be the
mother of the eponymous race known as the Danavas.
·
The
word Danu described the primeval waters that this deity perhaps
embodied.
·
In
later Hinduism, she is described as the daughter of the Prajapati Daksha and
his spouse Panchajani, and the consort of the sage Kashyapa. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danu_(Hinduism)
Note: I am now writing about the Vedic GODs and NOT
the Hindu GODs. The Vedic period happened before the Hinduism
period. The Hindu period does embrace most of the Vedic culture
though, just that the names may change a little and some GODs disappear.
Also, “Kashyapa” is most probably
the Greek Kronos. Thus Kashyapa/Kronos is also the father
of Indra/Zeus and Varuna/Poseidon of which he is.
But Danu is not the mother of Indra/Zeus
and Varuna/Poseidon. That person is Aditi, the other wife
of Kashyapa.
In Japan, the Vedic GODs are
known as the following;
·
Suiten = Varuna/Poseidon
·
Taishakuten = Indra/Zeus
·
Fūten = Vāyu/Aeolus
·
Emmaten = Yama/Hades
·
Rasetsuten = Nirṛti/Rākṣasa
·
Ishanaten = Īśāna
·
Bishamonten = Vaiśravaṇa/Kubera
·
Katen = Agni/Ignis
·
Bonten = Brahmā
·
Jiten = Pṛthivī
·
Nitten = Sūrya/Āditya and
·
Gatten = Chandra
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Varuna
Note: I am starting to get into Japan now? Maybe?
*** All The GODs Are
the Same! ***
A quick recap here;
·
Celtic
Goddess Danu = Vedic/Hindu Goddess Danu (Mother Goddess)
·
Celtic
Danaan = Also Danu
·
Hindu
Danavas tribe = (Children of the Goddess Danu)
·
Danavas = plural for Danu in Vedic
language (not Sanskrit).
·
Celtic
Tvashtar = Vedic/Hindu Kashyapa (Husband of Danu)
·

Kashyapa = Greek Kronos
·

Dewi Danu,
Batur lake, Bali
Picture above is of Dewi Danu in
Bali, Indonesia = Goddess Danu in Ireland. The Goddess Danu must
have spent some time in Bali for the Balinese to know about her.
What Did the Danann
Look Like? https://www.irishcentral.com/opinion/others/tuatha-de-danann-irish-gods-aliens
Archaeology of Irish sites uncover that
today’s Irish certainly looked very different to the small, dark native
peoples of Ireland at ancient times. The Danann on the other hand are
generally described as tall with red or blonde hair, blue or green eyes,
and pale skin.
Interestingly, archaeology has unearthed
evidence all around the world of small colonies of red-haired people from the
same time period as the Tuatha De Danann’s arrival in Ireland.
Excavations in Xinjiang Province, China
have revealed mummies of red and blonde haired people living around also
four thousand years ago.
The extremely well-preserved Egyptian
mummy of a nobleman Yoya, c. 1400 BC, shows he had blonde hair and Nordic
features, as did his wife, Thuya. She was also Tutankhamun’s
great-grandmother.
Note: So, we learn here that the original people in Ireland
were dark skinned and small bodied. Also, we learn that King Tutankhamen’s
great-grand parents were white blonde’s! Cool huh? See my Chapter 13e on
King Tut and his elongated skull! Not to mention that half of
West European men have King Tut’s DNA today.
Irish Redheads
In my previous chapter (Chapter 13c)
I had mentioned about the red and blonde color hair is the Anunnaki
colors. Together with blue and green eyes.
So, one could imagine that the Goddess Danu
has the DNA for these colors (Anunnaki?). Because Ireland has the most
Redheads? (Not to forget next door - the English and Dutch.)
Red Hair https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/percentage-of-redheads-by-country
·
Ireland 10%
·
England 8.5%
·
United
States 4%
·
Netherlands 2%
Blonde Hair https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/blonde-hair-percentage-by-country
·
Finland 80%
·
Sweden 78%
·
Norway 75%
·
Ireland 38%
There must have been another Goddess who
came over to Northwest Europe with Blonde DNA traits. This is certainly possible
because the Sage Kashyapa had 13 wives (besides the Goddess Danu)!
Goddess Danu all over
Europe!
The influence of the Goddess Danu
did not stay with just Ireland! There is ample evidence of the Goddess in many
European countries.
The Goddess Danu is known as the river
Goddess, which is why my picture of the statue of the Goddess in Bali (above) is
situated by a river also.
In Europe, you will find the evidence of
the Goddess by the following river names;
·
Don
·
Dan
·
Donnan
·
Domnann
·
Donetsk
·
Dniepr and other river names:
·
Also,
Anu, Anann, Anand, Ana, Anis, Danann, Brigid, Boann
·
She
was known as Danae by the Greeks even! Yes, the Greeks!
·
Don’t
forget that she is known as Danuni by the Northern Greeks!
Don, Donets, Dnieper and Dniestr. Dniepr
and Dniestr, from Danapris and Danastius, are presumed
from Scythian Iranian *Dānu apara “river afar” and *Dānu nazdya-
“river near”, respectively.
Note:
·
The
Scythians were an East Iranian-speaking people who had invaded Media, revolted
against King Darius and threatened to disrupt trade between Central Asia and
the shores of the Black Sea as they lived between the Danube and Don
Rivers and the Black Sea.
·
The
Scythians are the Indo-Iranian Aryan race! The Danu are the Indo-European
Aryan race!
·
It
is possible that Dānu in Scythian as in Avestan was a generic word for
"river": Dnieper and Dniestr, from Danapris and Danastius,
are presumed to continue Scythian *dānu apara "far river" and
*Dānu nazdya- "near river", respectively.
·
In
Ossetian Language (modern Alanic) Dan still means river. In Avestan it
is Danu, also meaning River.

Towns and river locations
·
Don – river in England
·
Don – Russian - is the fifth-longest river
in Europe
·
Volga-Don – river in Russia
·
Donets - fourth-longest river in Ukraine
·
Donetsk - Ukraine
·
Dnieper – Ukraine (also called Dnepr or Dnipro)
·
Danube – Longest River in Europe – ends in the
Black Sea
Why Is there so many references of the
Goddess Danu in Ukraine and Russia? Because the Indo-European-Aryan race
was originally located between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea.
It is possible to
Hypothesize that a big chunk of the European Aryans were descendants of the
Goddess Danu! Including the Greeks?

The list of literature listed above will
reference what’s written below.
So, this tale starts in Greece, long
before the rise of the Mycenaeans, there lived a race of nomads known as the
Pelasgians. Tribal in nature, they were seafarers who claimed to be born of the
Great Goddess Danu. (The Mycenaeans and the Minoans can
be considered Pelasgians.)
The Pelasgians ruled Greece for
many years until the coming of the Achaeans, who invaded Thessaly from
Syria in about 1900 B.C. The Achaeans were patriarchal herdsmen who
worshipped the Indo-European trinity of gods Mitra, Varuna, and Indra.
These gods would later evolve into Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades,
as the Achaeans would evolve into the Mycenaen Greeks.
They conquered Greece and tried to
destroy the semi-matriarchal Bronze age Pelasgians, but failing that,
they simply assimilated them through compromise, accepting matrilineal
succession, and even accepting the Great Goddess Danu herself.
Note: Yet again the holy trinity comes to play. I find that
everyone from Europe to India to Iran has this similar holy trinity. Mitra-Varuna-Indra
or Brajanj-Visnji-Ziva or Brahma-Vishnu-Shiva or Hades-Poseidon-Zeus.
Where Zeus and Poseidon are always portrayed as Indra/Ziva/Shiva (or Siva in Mexico even), and Varuna/Visnji/Vishnu. The odd one out is the Brahma/Hades/Mitra
group. But I am now finding that there is a slight difference when we move from
the Vedic age to the Hinduism age. Also, it looks like the Greeks are half
Syrians??? Their Achaean conqueror was Syrian!!! Damn!
Some Achaeans would roam the
Mediterranean Sea, sacking Cnossos in 1400 B.C. These tribes would
become the Ionians, and they would become people of the isles of Lesbos,
Chios, Cnidos, Thrace, and Troad. In time they would unite with the
Phoenicians, Philistines, Mitanni, Jebusites, Amorites, and the Hittites to
attack Egypt, where they would be crushed by the Pharoah Ramesis III,
who by the way names them the Danuna on his temple walls in 1187 B.C.
Note: Pretty cool that we now have a reference to the children
of the Goddess Danu on the temple walls in Egypt! So, this story I am
writing has complete credibility!
Greek philosopher Homer spoke of
them as the Danaoi. The Greek Herodotus would mention the Syrian Achaean
invasion of Greece in the first paragraph of History. He also mentions
the capture, by the Phoenicians of the Danaan Shrine of the White Goddess Io
at Argos, then the religious capital of the Peloponnese (the Cretans had
colonized it in about 1750 B.C.)
Note: Danu is the White Goddess, and the Greek Goddess Io
is also a White Goddess. So, I safely say that the Vedic/Hindu/Irish
Goddess Danu is the Greek Goddess Io!
Welcome to my Greek friends to the Hindu
world! I always knew the Greeks were originally Hindus also!!! LOL .. LOL
Better yet, the northern fleeing
confederation of Pelasgian tribes, called themselves the Tuatha De
Danaan that we follow from here. As they migrated north, they left their
mark upon all the races that they touched until at last they reached Denmark
where they established a great kingdom. Denmark means “Kingdom of the
Danaans.” They built four great cities; great Falias, shining Gorias,
Finlas, and rich Murias, which lay to the south.
Note: Hot Dang! Even the country Denmark is named after
the Goddess Danu!
They came to Ireland in 1472 B.C. and
saw that the land was ruled by a race of creatures known as the Firbolgs. Could
be Neanderthals or Denisovans or just caveman? The Tuatha De Danaan sent
a message to the king of the Firbolgs that they would not fight the Firbolgs if
King Eochaid would cede them half the land. Well, it didn’t work and they went
to war and surely the Firbolgs were crushed.
In 1268 B.C., a race of people known as
the Milesians invaded Ireland. After a bloody battle the Milesians
won. The Queen of Tuatha De Danaan
asked the conquerors, the Milesians to name the land after her name, Eire.
And so, Ireland got its name – from the Queen Eire! Pretty
cool huh?
Also, the tribe became a nation of
roving warriors, their blue eyes and pale faces with long, curly yellow hair
marking their race.
According to Roman Tacitus in his
Annals and Histories, the Germans claimed to be descendants of the Mannus,
the son of Tuisto. Tuisto relates to Vedic Tvasthar/Kashyapa, the
Vedic father-creator Sky God, who is also a name for the father of Manu (RigVeda
X.17.1-2). This makes the Rig Vedic people also descendants of Manu, the
son of Tvashtar/Kashyapa. https://www.vedanet.com/vedic-origins-of-the-europeans-the-children-of-danu/
Note: Yet again, I am adding Germany to Ireland, Denmark and
Greece to be directly related to the Vedic/Hindu/Irish Goddess Danu!!!
Don’t forget to add Poland, Serbia and Russia of which I covered in Chapter
15c.
