Cessair: Ireland's First Arrival and the Pre-Flood Mystery

The Woman Who Came Before the Deluge According to Ireland's ancient texts, the very first person to set foot on the Emerald Isle wasn't a warrior king, a druid priest, or even a male leader. It was a woman. And she arrived before Noah's Flood. Her name was Cessair (also spelled Cesair or Ceasair), and her story—preserved in the Lebor Gabála Érenn (Book of the Taking of Ireland)—is one of the most remarkable and overlooked origin myths in Western literature. While most nations trace their founding to conquering heroes or divine ancestors, Ireland claims its first inhabitants were refugees from the Biblical apocalypse , led by a woman who had been refused entry to Noah's Ark . This isn't a minor detail in Irish mythology. It's the foundation story. The beginning of everything. And it raises profound questions about what the Irish actually believed about their origins—and what they might have been trying to preserve.   The Story of Cessair: Fleeing the Floo...

Scythian Origins of the Gaels: What Ancient Irish Texts Actually Say

The Story You've Never Heard Ask most people where the Irish came from, and you'll get vague answers about Celts from mainland Europe. But according to Ireland's own ancient texts—specifically the Lebor Gabála Érenn (Book of Invasions)—the Gaelic people have a much more exotic origin story. The Irish claim they came from Scythia. Not as conquered people. Not as refugees. But as descendants of Scythian nobility who journeyed from the steppes of what is now Iran and Southern Russia, through Egypt and Spain, before finally settling in Ireland. This isn't fringe theory. This is what the medieval Irish themselves said about their own origins , preserved in texts that predate the Norman invasion. So why don't we hear about this? And what if there's more truth to it than mainstream academia wants to admit?   The Lebor Gabála Érenn: Ireland's Origin Story The Lebor Gabála Érenn (Book of the Taking of Ireland), compiled in the 11th century but drawing on muc...

Egyptian Origins of Gaels and Norse Mythology Written Simultaneously-The Timing No One Talks About:

The Timeline Everyone Misses 11th-12th centuries : Irish scribes compile the Lebor Gabála Érenn (Book of the Taking of Ireland) and other texts documenting that the Gaels descended from Scota, an Egyptian princess, and traced their lineage directly to pharaonic Egypt. https://irishcabal.blogspot.com/2026/01/an-egpytian-gaelic-connection.html  13th century : Norse mythology is written down for the first time in Iceland—by Christian scribes in a population that was heavily Norse-Gaelic mixed. https://irishcabal.blogspot.com/2026/01/iceland-meeting-point-of-irish-and.html  These aren't separate events separated by centuries. They're simultaneous, overlapping textual projects by interconnected cultures.   What This Means The Irish weren't writing down their Egyptian origin story in ancient times, lost in the mists of prehistory. They were documenting it in the 11th-12th centuries —and then immediately after , in the 13th century , the same Irish-influenced scribal cultu...
