  • Notes 
    • Gadel's mother is Scota who is the daughter of Hykos, King of Egypt. Gathelus and Scota, with a great company of people, left during the plagues of Egypt (time of Moses). They settled first in Spain. Then hearing of a Green Island, these people (called Scots because of Gathelus' love for his wife Scota) went to Ireland, led by Prince Hiberus (sometimes called Iber, the first Scot), son of Gathelus. There they lived for some years and then under a descendant, Prince Rothsay, they settled in Scotland. This is our literal blood descent from Ephraim the son of Joseph and the Twelve Tribes of Israel, the sons of Jacob (Israel). Legend has it that Scota was daughter of an Egyptian Pharoah. The Pedigree of Scota Tephi (Princess) of Egypt aka Scotta MISR; eponym of Scotland Gadel's mother is Scota who is the daughter of Hykos, King of Egypt.

The Pedigree of Scota Tephi (Princess) of Egypt aka Scotta MISR; eponym of Scotland Note: The descent of early Irish Kings from 26th Dynasty Egypt may be factual: there are various circumstances linking Carians and tyre-Carthage with Goidelic language and myth. Husband/Partner: Gallamh 'Milesius (King) in Spain Possible: Heremon (2nd Monarch of Ireland; Ir (na Irena) Mac Miled Alternative Mother of possible children: sister-in-law of Solomon ben David, q.v. Scota Tephi, a daughter of Nectaebus, Pharoh of Egypt and a sister of King Solomon's Queen. The similar name "Scota" has created some confusion in which "Scota" the Scots take their name from. The Annals of the Four Masters suggests the time period to be circa 1700 B.C. but historians date it at 35-45- B.C. Other source suggest the time period was 1200 BC. Mils had 8 sons as shown here. ----------------- Church News - Editorial Page THE PROMISED LAND The December 1977 issue of the National Geographic magazine carried a most interesting article about "The Promised Land." It tells of the voyage of a group of Irish monks about 600 A.D. These early voyagers, according to tradition, came to America in a small boat made of leather. Their journey took seven years, according to the legend. It is not too surprising that people came from abroad that early period, although it seems like nothing less than a miracle that any could make the trip in a leather boat. It is well-established now that various voyagers came to American shores, both over the Atlantic and the Pacific, long before Columbus. Of course, it is important to keep in mind that no permanent settlements were made until the Lord was ready to colonize America. But what is exceptionally interesting about the Irish tradition is that the monks set out to find "The Promised Land of the Saints." Where did they learn that America was the Promised Land? What provided the stimulation to make them want to risk life and limb to find it? What gave them to understand that the Promised Land was for "the Saints"? Only the Book of Mormon has spoken of America as the Promised Land, and it does so as far back as the time of Jared and his brother who left the Tower of Babel, and were brought here by divine power. The Nephites, of course, knew that this is the Promised Land, and were so instructed before ever arriving here. But for the Irish monks of 600 A.D. to know this same fact makes one wonder where they obtained this information. And is it not more than interesting that they attached the expression "of the Saints" to their designation of the Promised Land? Tradition speaks of the Prophet Jeremiah coming to Ireland with members of the family of King Zedekiah, rescued from the Babylonian captivity. Jeremiah lived at the same time as Lehi. He could have learned from Lehi about the Promised Land, and possibly could have told the Irish about it -- if he ever got to Ireland. Tradition also tells of voyages of Joseph of Arimathea to the British Isles, and, of course, he was acquainted with the teachings of the Savior. It is well-known that early voyages were made to Britain to obtain tin. Similar traditions assert that the Apostle Paul came to Britain on one of his voyages, although there is little to substantiate the thought. We do not know how widely the teaching was disseminated that there was a Promised Land and that America was so disignated. But we do know from the Book of Mormon and modern revelation that it is so, and that America will have special divine protection if she will but serve the God of the Land, who is Jesus Christ. Since the Promised Land of the Saints meant so much to the ancients, can we not learn to place equal value upon it? --------------------------- Milesius Ancestry - Milesius's sons did not neglect the invasion that their father had prepared to undertake. They set out from Breoghan's Tower (Corunna) in Galicia, Spain and sailed to the coasts of Ireland. Along the coast they met with many difficulties and various chances before they were able to land. The Tuatha-de-Danans use the diabolical arts, sorceries, and enchantments to obstruct their landing. They enchanted the island so that it looked to be in the form of a hog. A great storm was raised and the Milesius fleet was dispersed, many of the ships being lost. Wholly five of the eight sons of Milesius were lost at sea. The fleet under the command of Heremon landed below the City of Drogheda.
