Anna Wilkes, Ireland: Ur of the Chaldees, published in 1873

Where is the location of Biblical sites such as Ur of the Chaldees, Gilead, and ancient cities where the patriarchs Abraham and Jacob settled and sojourned? To save time from historical vagabondage, let us remember that Eurasia is the largest continental area on earth, comprising all of Europe and Asia. Even better, to the ancient Greeks, the whole region from India to Egypt was called Ethiopia. As part of the same family lineage, the Western Ethiopians lived in Africa and the Eastern Ethiopians dwelled in Asia. From ancient maps Sudan, Egypt, Arabia, Palestine, Western Asia and India were part of the same geographical compass. Since ancient time, there has been an ongoing migration and trade between and all along Afro-Eurasia. Thus, Eurasia originally included Africa. Herodotus wrote that the western Ethiopian Eurasia is connected to Africa at the Suez Canal, making Afro-Eurasia the largest contiguous landmass on Earth. That is the reason why, Afro-Eurasia has been the host of many ancient civilizations and the birthplace of mankind. From this ancient map, we must trace the migration of the Chaldean (Celtae) from the extremities of Ireland and Britain all the way to India. Unsurprisingly enough, the great builders of the temples of Egypt, the Aztecs empire and India as well, are the same who built Britain Stonehenge ( The Temple of the Black-curly-headed Buddha). Has the journey of Abraham taken him out of Ireland to India or ancient Ethiopia to be exact? Or rather, has Abraham migrated from ancient Ethiopia to settle to Ireland? I rather suggest a round-trip ticket journey, both with Abraham and his offsprings. Abraham went down to Egypt before returning home. The tomb of the patriarchs tells us where the journey began. Joseph went down to Egypt and brought down with him his entire family. Abraham and Lot went out of Ireland, migrating from the Eurasian continent via Spain through settlements, all the way to the Mississippi valleys and Ethiopia. The undeniable fact is this. The British Islands and Ireland were the seats of the Patriarchs after the Great Flood of Noah before their descendants took the journey to the Mississippi valleys. Historical account had turned our eyes to the East to locate all the Scriptures sites. The uncomfortable truth is that, after the Great Flood, the first human families migrated from Afro-Eurasia to the Mississippi valleys and beyond, and not from Africa and Asia to the West as historians want us to believe. Greeks and Romans inherited both the fundamentals of their religious systems, their alphabet, as well as their jurisprudence, and philosophy from the Celts. Chaldeo-Celtic inheritance have been informing our present-day civilizations and cultures. The signs of the Zodiac, the Moon, the Stars, and the Sun, make direct reference to the religion of Noah and his sons. The ancient Druids were the Chaldean Priests. "Druid" means "Priest". Chaldeans were known for their advance knowledge of astronomy, astrology, intertwined to their religious practices. The modern-day Freemasons have been keeping the knowledge passed unto them by the Chaldean Druids. Freemasonry is of British origin. It went public with the formation of the Grand Lodge of England in 1717 and the Supreme Council 33 of the Scottish Rite in 1861. Free Masons are simply instructed according to the rites and mysteries of the Chaldaean Druids. Druids are the indigenous keepers of patriarchal ancient wisdom or the ancient religion of Noah. Pythagoras acknowledged to have been taught much of his philosophy by the Druid Abaris. The Hebrew speakers in Canaan shared the same origin with the ancient Celts. Arab tradition mostly corroborates Celtic tradition. As Anna Wilkes takes us through a rigorous and well established foundational historical fact, it might be useful to divorce from historical fantasy in order to clearly locate Chaldaea in Western Europe. The sons of Noah, known to us as Shem, Ham, and Japhet are the progenitors of the Chaldaean, the Chaldaean Hebrew, and later on, the numerous “children or nations of Israel” or descendants of Jacob. To this day, cities still bear witness to the footprints left behind by the offspring of Noah: Hamburg (fortress of Ham); Amsterdam; South Hampton or North Hampton; Salisbury, called with the ancient name of Caer-Salug, a testament of Sala or Saleh; the city of Heber, or Caer-Evrog (Herbrog), the old name of York; Lud or London. The ancient Celts which compose branches of the same race such as the Irish, Welsh, Gaelic, Armoric, etc … are no other than what we called the Chaldaean. Laban spoke Syriac-aramaic in Padan-Aram, another name for Mesopotamia (country between rivers, and Syria means Aram), while Abraham and Lot learned Hebrew in Canaan. The children of Shem are: Elam, Asshur, Arphaxad, Lud, and Aram. Arphaxad’s son is Salah, Saleh, or Shelah, who gave birth to Eber or Heber (founder of the ancient Hebrew), who gave birth to Nahor, Terah, and Abraham. The Arabs know Heber as Hud (from which derived names such as Hudswell, Huddersfield, Huddington, Hudson, Huddleston, etc..). Jocktan, the leader of the Arab-al-Arab, is the son of Heber, and claimed to have migrated from Irem, a part of Calneh-Shinar, the land of Ad and Thamud, which is the name of Arphaxad and of Terah, the father of Abraham. Thamud is the name given to Terah by the ancient Arabs, and Thomond is one of the ancient kingdoms of Ireland, which has been changed to Clare County. Heber migrated from Iberia, the south of Ireland was his portion. Terah’s name is recognizable today as Tara of the kings, the seat of residence for the Irish Pentarchy. Gilead-Mizpah was in Ireland. On the mound of Tara was a sacred stone, so valuable, that it was the custom to crown the kings of Ireland sitting upon it. This stone was called the Lia Fail, or Stone of Destiny, or Jacob’s stone. Jacob had rested his head upon this stone at Bethel or Luz. The stone had been laid at Westminster Abbey, where it had since remained. Ireland was once called Inis-Fail, or the Island of Destiny, by the Tuath-de-Danans. The ancient kings of Ireland used this stone for coronation. They have all been Chaldaeans before being identified by their ancestral names. Noah, the patriarch was venerated by the fish-god symbol or made an ancestral idol as Dagon, in remembrance of the Great Flood. Arphaxad in Chaldaea, was venerated by the symbol of the serpent. The serpent was the symbol of wisdom, symbolic of the founding father of the Chaldaean nation. Notice that the symbol of the Red Dragon is simply a large and big snake, a symbolic ancestral item carried by migrant families all the way to Asia. Egyptian pharaohs hold the snake rod in their hand as symbol of divine power. Arphaxadites are now called the “Chaldaeans.” In Celtic mythology, Arphaxad declares of himself: “ I am a Druid, I am an Architect, I am a Prophet, I am a Serpent”. The cross is one of the chief emblems in Druidism or to the Chaldeans, as a royal badge. The crossed-rod of the Druids is the symbol of the Chaldaean shepherd kings before being adopted as the cross for Christians. Arphaxad is understood by the Welsh as Aedd-Mawr, father of the Prydian. The Irish call him Ar-Mor, from which derives the name Armorica. Scotch, Irish, and Welsh will identify this patriarch as Arthur Art (Ard), meaning high; and (Ur), meaning fire. Ur, in Irish, "Cal", means, that which burns. Chal-Daea, or “Dry Land of Chasidim” is derived from Chased, son of Nahor, who gave his name to the city of Nahor in Aram-Naharaim. Aram means, “between the rivers”, or “Mesopotamia”, the country between rivers. The Arabs called it “Al-Jizereh”, meaning, “The Islands”. Genesis 5 referred to the sons of Japhet as “inhabitants of the isles”, or “the isles of the Gentiles.” “Calneh”, in Irish, means “to burn”, “a stone altar”, in reference to the house or people who sacrifice by fire. “Cal – Daea” is the fire or altar of the God. Druidism was the religion of Great Britain and Ireland. The Druids preserved the religion of Noah, by worshipping God via sacrifice on stone altars. There were three orders of the Druids: the High Priest, or chief Druid, who wears white; the Bard who wears blue; and the Ovate, who wears green. Green is the holy color of the Ovad of the Arabs. According to the Koran, the green color is carried in remembrance of Al-Ras and the country, Irem, where they migrated from. The vestiges of the Great Chaldean Nation could be found no where, but in Great Britain and Ireland. To this day, the Irish and the Hebrews could trace their genealogy up to Noah. Ireland had once bore the name of Hibernia. Hibernia is derived from Heber. Originally, Iberians are Hebrew, descendants of Eber or Heber. The Hebrides, in Scotland, the old name Hebericum, England, the name of York. Spain, a stronghold of the Hebrew, was known in ancient times as Iberia. Iberia and ancient Tarshish are one place, that is Spain: "the kings of Tarshish and of the Isles shall bring presents." Lud is the brother of Arphaxad. The Ludites are descendants of Lloyd, Loyd, Loudon in Wales, or McLeod, or sons of Lud in Scotland. Lud was the ancient name of Normandy, adjacent to Armorica. The brothers of Cush were Mizraim, Phut, and Canaan. Egypt was the land of Mizraim, and Phut and Canaan have been nearly intermediate places. We find traces of Cush in Ireland with the Cuthite remains, and Cushandal, the ancient kingdom of Meath that was added to the province of Leinster. The old name of Meath was Midhe or Midian. The caravan of Midianite merchants, carrying their goods to the East, have been Chaldaeans. Gallacia is the country of the descendants of Gomer, the first son of Japhet. Gomer founded the Greek or Galatians (the Galls).
