1. "English", "Anglo" and "Brit"

#2. Captain Ian McRae: "Britain" not just "England" is the correct term!

In re: British vs English

In my own personal experience I have been corrected on several
occasions when referring to the various inhabitants of Great Britain
as "British". Everyone concerned seems to prefer the component
designations, Welsh, Irish, Scottish or English. "Brit" is actually
and epithet among some Irish catholics.

Beatles song: "A day in the life" - "the english army had just won
the war..."

Orwell essay "England our England"

there are many many examples. If England is Ephraim, and Ephraim is
often used to mean the whole House of Joseph, it's only logical
that the world would refer to the 'Brits' as "English", to both
sides of the Atlantic as "Anglo", and fail to make any distinctions
between the various peoples. (which is especially true in catholic
europe) And that these countries would be populated with average
Joes.

We are all "British"- covenant people.

R1B1C10 is a new haplotype designated through testing positively for s-28. As I have tested positive for s-28, and I am a subscriber to Brit Am, I enclose the very interesting recent findings.

 The below is taken from a post on a genealogy website by Dr Faux, who is a founder of Ethno Ancestry in London.
5) R1b1c10 is a classic Celtic Hallstadt - La Tane marker. It is
specifically found in Celtic populations that emerged from the Thraco -
Cimmerian migration (circa 700 BC) to Switzerland, the Balkans and Eastern
Europe to the Jutland Penninsula where the Celtic Cimbri peoples (ancestors
to part of the Belgae of France and Belgium) called home from about 500 BC.
In England it will be found only along the East coastal areas (Danelaw) via
Danish Viking migrations from Himmerland (Limfjord in Denmark). If from
Kent it may mean Jutish. If from SE Norway or Southern Sweden a "spill
over" from Skagen to Mariager Fjord in the northern part of the Jutland
Penninsula. If from France then Belgae whose territory included the English
Channel south to below Paris and with links to the Helvetia in Switzerland.
If from Northern Wales then Belgae forced to move north with the advance of
the Romans or Saxons.

Please note that the locations in Scandinavia appear to match the Rune Stone markers, that if read backwards, read phonetically in Hebrew. It appears that my most recent heritage is descended ( as I am from East Anglia) from the Danish Vikings in the Danelaw of England, who come from the La Tene area of Switzerland, who come from a Thraco Cimmerian background. I would be interested in your take on this, particularly the Cimmerian link to Brit Am theory.
This is a link to Dr Faux' website
http://www.davidkfaux.org/
please scroll down to " The Cimbri of England and Denmark" it is an 84 page tome on his well researched theory. Dr Faux is also s-28.. there are now 13 of us with this marker, out of several hundreds tested..

Reply:
Dr Faux has done very valuable research much of which overlaps with and helps confirm our own.
Dr Faux also raises new possibilities worthy of consideration.
We sent Dr Faux a copy of our work, "The Tribes".
He was pleased with the work and reciprocated by supplying us information of
great personal value.

3. Steve Collins: Scythians
From: Steve Collins <scollins@sio.midco.net>

As my book, Israel's Lost Empires, notes, there were more than one kind of "Scythian." The term "Scythian" refers to a lifestyle trait of many tribes in the South Russian steppes during ancient times. There were "Sacae Scythians" (who bore the name of the biblical patriarch, Isaac) and there were "Turanian Scythians (who did not have any Israelite names upon them). The Greek writers recorded that the Sacae Scythians were remarkably civilized and added that they practiced uniquely Israelite, biblical customs (such as avoiding swine and forbidding idolatry). There were uncivilized tribes in Scythian regions during time of the Assyrian invasions of Israel and it is possible some of them may have been allied to the Assyrians.

However, the "Sacae" Scythians fulfilled the biblical prophecy that the name of Isaac" would remain on the Israelite descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob (who was later named Israel). The name of Isaac was already upon the ten tribes of Israel before they went into exile (Amos 7:16) and the name of Isaac was placed on the ten tribes of Israel even in the ancient records of the Assyrians. Evidence that the ten tribes of Israel were the Sacae Scythians is so extensive that it cannot be listed in this reply. Persuasive evidence for this connection is found in my article on the Scythians, but the full evidence is in my book, Israel's Lost Tribes, which can be ordered through the book links at www.stevenmcollins.com.

The Sacae Scythians and the Parthians were related tribesmen and both groups were not found in Asia until after the ten tribes were exiled into Asia. Their cities had Israelite names, many of their kings had the names of the royal house of King David, and they replaced the formerly-Greek names of the rivers flowing into the Black Sea with new names based on the Israelite tribe of Dan (the Danube, Don, etc.) The Israelite names for these rivers have remained until today and few realize it was the Sacae Scythians who gave the obviously Israelite names to these rivers.

On those occasions when someone doubts the many historical connections between the ten tribes of Israel and the Sacae Scythians, I challenge them to give an alternative identification for who the ten tribes of Israel were after their exile and where they lived and migrated. I insist that such identifications not be based on whim or speculation, but based on scholarly evidence which is consistent with biblical prophecies about the ten tribes. They must have a huge population after their exile (Hosea 1:10), they must have the name of Isaac upon them (Genesis 21:12), they must have Israelite names and customs preserved in secular historical sources, etc. No doubter has ever answered my challenge. Indeed, that is because there is no alternative explanation. The Sacae Scythians (and their Parthian kinsmen) satisfy every piece of evidence needed to make the connections between them and the ten tribes of Israel.

Sincerely,

Steven Collins
