The word Newgrange is derived from New Grianan which means
New Sunhouse and it was built by, and is the tomb of, Aengus the Ard ri
(High-king) of Tara, who reigned in the latter-half of the sixth century
B.C. and whose name is carved in Ogham Script on Stone C4 in the West Recess
inside the tomb.
The hieroglyphics on Stone C4 in Newgrange's West
Recess
that show a "ship" (with four passengers: - Jeremiah;
Teia Tephi and her two hand-maidens) and spell
the word "Aengus" carved in Ogham Script.
On the East side of stone C4 there is carved a
date-palm with a
wavy line attached to it. This date-palm
represents queen Teia Tephi, Aengus' mother who came to Ireland by sea
over the waves from Jerusalem and confirms that the Aengus
referred to in Ogham script, on the same stone, was indeed the third
child of Teia Tephi and her husband the Daighda, Eochaidh mac Duach/Dui,
the High-king of Tara. Aengus was also known as "in Mac Oc" (the Young
Son). Part of the Ogham Script has also been described as a ship,
which is further proof of Aengus' relationship with Teia Tephi, his mother,
who came by
ship from Jerusalem to Ireland with Jeremiah
the Bible Prophet. Teia Tephi landed with Jacob's Pillar Stone, the
Bethel - Lia Fail Stone, at Howth on the 18th
of June in 583 B.C.
West Recess
Queen Teia Tephi had The Mound of The Hostages
(2 Chron.
25:24) built for her at Tara Hill and named "Teamur" - "Teia's
Wailing-Wall';
where she wailed over the destruction of her native Jerusalem, just as
people do today by the "Wailing-Wall" in Jerusalem itself. It was also
called Duma na Gaill, meaning "Purity of Palms", according
to the Irish Metrical Dindsenchas, Part 1; page 17; line 39. The Mound
of The Hostages/Teamur was so called, because, before being covered with
earth at a later date, it was the wall where the Palm (Teia Tephi)
fasted; prayed and purified herself. A later Jerusalem - Palm link
is "Palm-Sunday."
Aengus' mother; the daughter of king Zedekiah of Jerusalem;
called Teia Tephi, who was brought from Jerusalem to Ireland by Jeremiah
(the Bible Prophet who was buried in Cairn T, at nearby
Loughcrew) wrote in her autobiography that Aengus was very arrogant
and that he would worship money and build the grandest tomb in Ireland
for himself to be immortalised in human-memory but that it would be violated
and ransacked by future invaders and grave-robbers.
Newgrange, the grandest tomb in Europe.
It was ransacked and robbed, by the vikings exactly as
his mother prophesied after seeing a vision, a copy of which is in the
"Book
of Tephi Queen of Tara", which includes many other prophecies that
she was given by God and which have been fulfilled in minute detail.
Because of his mother's prophecy concerning his tomb;
that he knew would be fulfilled, for Teia Tephi was God's Chosen Seed and
the Tender Twig (daughter) of the lofty Cedar (line of David) that Jeremiah
uprooted from Jerusalem and planted in Ireland (Jeremiah 1:10), as he was
commanded to do by God; Aengus had the blue-prints / building-plans carved
into stone and placed in and around his tomb. He did this so that the tomb
could then be rebuilt if it was badly damaged by the prophesied future
raiders.
Jeremiah 1:10 See, I (God) have this day set
thee
(Jeremiah) over the nations and over the kingdoms,
to root out,
and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to
plant.
The carvings you can see on the stones are astronomical
calculations, done in great detail, without which it would have been impossible
to construct and align the tomb and its roof-box aperture with the Winter
Solstice sunrise. The vertical lines on kerbstones K1 and K52, which are
on opposite sides (at the front and the back respectively) of the tomb
are sighting-marks for lining-up the passage with the Winter Solstice sunrise.
Kerb-stones K 1 (above) and K 52 (below).
It was the Winter Solstice (the original pagan Yuletide)
that was believed to be the time both of death and rebirth, in pagan Baal-worship,
and so the tomb was lined up in order that Aengus could be reborn when
the sun (worshipped as a god by Baal-worshippers) pierced his tomb and
the beam of light touched his remains.
The light of the Winter Solstice entering the passage
at Newgrange.
Aengus believed that he could then travel along
the light-beam to the sun and join his god and become divine himself. This
belief was common in many parts of the world especially in Egypt, where
the Celts, who are all Israelites, had been in slavery for 400 years, until
Moses delivered them from slavery in the Exodus, after which some of them
came to Ireland as Celts. Aengus's great pride and his belief expressed
by his tomb caused him to be wrongfully deified, like the pharaohs, by
his subjects.
The word Celt is the anglicised version of the Greek word
Keltoi, which means the "people who are different" i.e. Israelites.
The whole world according to God is populated by Gentiles, with Israelites
being the minority who are "different" (as expressed in Deuteronomy
14:2 of The Torah - The Law) because they were commanded to keep only
God's Laws - The Torah, which is buried in The
Ark of The Covenant at the Hill of Torah-Taueragh-Tara. Israelites
were to be a "peculiar people" unto the Lord i.e. "different from
other people".
Deuteronomy 14:2 For thou [art] an holy people unto
the "I AM" thy God, and the "I AM" hath chosen thee to be a peculiar*
people unto Himself, above all the nations that [are] upon the earth.
* Special; Different (Oxford Dictionary).
The other people who came to settle in Ireland were/are
the Tuatha de
Danaan which means the Tribe of Dan, which
was/is the fifth Tribe of Israel (Genesis 30:6), so, they too, like the
Celts, are Israelites.
Genesis 30:6 And Rachel said, God hath judged me, and
hath also heard my voice, and hath given me a son: therefore called she
his name Dan.
The tomb itself is designed as an enormous cosmic egg,
which was originally completely covered by quartz stone crystals, that
absorb and retain the sun's energy, just like quartz-crystals absorb energy
in many modern watches and clocks.
It is egg-shaped to act as a womb within which was placed
the remains of Aengus and the entrance-passage represents the uterus up
which the fertilizing ray of the Winter Solstice sunrise enters the womb;
supposedly impregnates and gives new life to the occupant to be reborn,
making them immortal, or, as in Aengus' case immortalised in human-memory
because of his magnificent tomb. This tomb is not just the grandest tomb
in Ireland, it is reputed to be the grandest in Europe.

Alignment of Standing Stones and Winter Solstice
Sunrise.
The large Standing Stones around Newgrange; as
well as being used for sighting and surveying benchmanks to line it up
with the Winter Solstice sunrise; were also used to align it with the other
great cairns of Knowth and Dowth. Standing Stone GC-2, which stands on
top of Bronze-age burial pits, was used along with Mound 6 to line-up Newgrange
with Knowth, which is the oldest of the three cairns. Other Standing Stones
around Newgrange were used to align Newgrange with Dowth which is the next
oldest; Newgrange being the youngest of the three.
Ireland has large copper deposits, and, using tin from
Cornwall, the Irish people manufactured bronze. That is why Ireland used
bronze rather than having to buy iron and is also why the Bronze-age continued
in Ireland well into what was already the Iron-age in other parts of the
world. Ireland had copper-mines at least 3,000 years ago when the Phoenicians
(Israelites) and others from the Mediterranean area first began sailing
here to buy bronze. It still has the largest copper-mines in Europe today.
Standing Stone GC -2 and the other Standing Stones date
from the Iron-age, not the Bronze-age, during the latter-part of the sixth
century B.C., which is when Aengus was the Ard ri of Tara; his mother having
died on the Calends (first) of August in 534 B.C.

Aengus, Teia Tephi's third child and her second son (known
as "In Mac Oc" - the Young son), was raised at Mullagh, Co. Cavan, by his
aunt Maistiv, who was reputed to have been the best embroideress in Ireland;
after his elder brother Aedh's death. Mullagh Hill where Aengus was raised
is not far away, being just over the Meath border in neighbouring County
Cavan.
Aengus' older brother; Aedh, Teia Tephi's
firstborn; died whilst still a teenager and was buried in the passage of
the Mound of The Hostages on Tara Hill, and so Aengus inherited the throne
in his place. Tara Hill was the Capital of Ireland and is well worth visiting,
not only because of its history and because it is still the Spiritual Capital
of Ireland, but also because of its natural unspoiled beauty and the spectacular
view of the surrounding country-side from the top of The Mound of The Hostages*.

* The words "The Hostages" are used only once in
the entire Bible, in the Old Covenant / Testament Second Book of Chronicles:-

all the vessels that were found in The House of God, . . . the hostages
also, and . . . .
The Correct Dating of Newgrange - c. 600 - 550
BC
Evidence from:-
Newgrange Archaeology, Art
and Legend
by Michael J. O’Kelly
George Petrie, who made the first Ordnance Survey of Tara
c. 1837, stated; as recorded by Professor O’Kelly on page 35:-
George Petrie was one of the first to place Newgrange
in its proper perspective, . . . . He also re-established the
link between Newgrange and the store of myth and saga enshrined in the
references to Bru na Boinne in the early Irish literature. No matter that
he wrongly (in O’Kelly’s opinion, which was based solely on the incorrect
radiocarbon-dating of the cairn - JAH) attributed the mounds on the Boyne
(correctly - JAH) to the ‘Tuatha de Danann’, the mythical semi-divine (which
they were not because they were flesh and blood real people from the Israelite
‘Tribe of Dan’, one of Jacob’s twelve sons - JAH) ancestors of the Gael;
Professor Michael J. O’Kelly states on page 41:-
(Sean P.) O’Riordhain (Professor of Archaeology at University
College Cork and Prof. O’Kelly’s teacher) said it was certain that
“The stone (GC -10) was erected clear of the edge of the cairn and that
it fell before any collapse (of the cairn) took place because none of the
cairn material lay beneath it.” The orthostat and circle, therefore, must
either be contemporary with the mound or earlier (and David
Sweetman the chief archaeologist at Duchas / OPW has ascertained using
rain-water-corrupted material that gave a radiocarbon reading for an earlier
date than the real age, that these GC stones including GC -10 were erected
post Bronze-Age [Iron-Age] - Technology Ireland; March 1991, page
23).
O’Kelly on page 42:-
Officially it was regarded as a Bronze Age monument of
perhaps 1500 BC or later (i.e. Iron-Age).
A threepenny guidebook by R. A. S. Macalister, published
in 1939, referred to it as a Bronze Age monument about 42 ft. in height
above ground level at the entrance.
O’Kelly on page 46:-
From the Book of Lecan. The Daighda had
three sons Aedh; Aengus (Mac Ind Oc, who built the cairn and after whom
Newgrange is also named Brug Aengusa) and Cermaidh.
O’Kelly on page 48:-
In the past three decades archaeologists, as a result
of (unreliable - JAH) scientific dating techniques, have become accustomed
to drastic revisions of chronologies which were previously held to be almost
immutable. Radiocarbon dating has (wrongly, as explained
below in the notes about page 87 - JAH) shown Newgrange to be a thousand
years older than the date popularly assigned to it in pre-excavation days.
O’Kelly on page 86:-
In every case the bottom course of the layer of cairn
stones resting on a turf layer had become cemented on to it by a bright
red deposit of iron oxide leached out (by water) from higher up
in the mound. (So evidently there was iron ore present at the time of the
building of Newgrange - JAH).
Page 87:-
The divisions between the turves here (behind K 95 slightly
to the East of K1 - JAH) were very clearly marked by lines of rust-red
iron oxide leached out (by water) from above (i.e. the area from
which the dating-samples were taken - JAH) and deposited in the interstices
into which the leaching water was easily able to run (showing that
there was a considerable washing/leaching-action taking place on the cairn,
that must also have washed/leached out the radiocarbon from the dating-samples
that were taken from material that was actually used as waterproofing-material
- Sweeney; The Pyramid Age; Domra 1999, page 102, Velikovsky’s article
1972 The Pitfalls of Radiocarbon Dating).
“As a matter of fact, the radiocarbon system is
well-known and increasingly well-accepted by those in the field to have
a number of major drawbacks. Velikovsky, who was never averse
to challenging the “experts,” presented a fairly detailed overview of the
problems as early as 1972 in an article entitled: The Pitfalls of Radiocarbon
Dating. To begin with, Velikovsky said, samples can be contaminated,
and it is virtually impossible to know that they have been. Contamination
comes in many forms, and can either increase or decrease the readings,
making the sample under investigation appear either much younger
or much older than it is. The most simple, yet possibly the most
pervasive form of contamination is that of water. Under some
circumstances, water can literally wash (leach out) the radioactivity out
of a sample, making it look older. But there is absolutely
no way of knowing whether a control sample has been exposed to water.
How then can we use radiocarbon readings of samples of wood, leather and
bone recovered from the ground, when it is virtually certain that at some
stage, even in Egypt, the ground has been soaked with rainwater?
Yet such readings are regularly published without comment.”
O’Kelly, page 88; fig. 13; top diagram
Shows that the samples that were used for radiocarbon
dating of Newgrange were taken from the very wettest parts of the cairn,
which is precisely why the material was needed in those particular locations
as ‘putty’ for caulking (water-proofing) and demonstrates that they would
have been constantly soaking-wet and subject to leaching-out of
the radiocarbon material contained in them, making the readings appear
much older than they really were, as explained above by Velikovsky and
Sweeney. The samples taken from the front and rear of Roofstone 3 (R 3)
were in locations that received so much water that, as well as using caulking
material (‘putty’), special grooves had to be cut into the roof stones
(R 3 and R 4) to help drain-away the water so it did not pour into the
passage (p. 94) because the caulking alone did not stop the flow of water
from soaking and running through the caulking ‘putty’ (leaching-out the
radiocarbon material in the process) and into the passage.
Page 90:-
It was also found that the inner-most turf layer in cutting
K95 could be linked with the inner-most one found in the embrasure (therefore
the water would have run from the higher inner-most turf, close to the
place from where the dating samples were taken, down to the lower linked
turf behind K95 where the leached-out iron oxide residue was found (see
page 111*), proving a great amount of water-flow and leaching-out took
place around and on the dating-samples).
* Page 111 :-
Since the monument stands on a ridge and the ground
beneath falls away to the North and South, the rain-water quickly runs
down through the loose body of the cairn and when it meets the iron-pan-indurated
surfaces of the layers of turves, or the pan-coated old turf surface beneath,
the natural flow is to the North and South.
Because water corrupts the dating-sample material by leaching-out
the radiocarbon from the sample, making it appear much older than it really
is, the radiocarbon dating of these two sets of samples is bound to give
a reading much older than the real date. These readings therefore have
to be discounted as a means of dating the cairn and other evidence,
by which it can be dated, must be found.
Page 94:-
The front portion of its (a roof slab) upper surface
has a natural shallow basin-like hollow which in wet weather, accompanied
by a southeast or south wind, would fill with water and occasionally spill
over and enter the passage. To prevent this, a water-groove had been cut
from the West edge of the ‘basin’ to drain the water off and allow it to
dissipate into the cairn outside the side of the passage (down the turves
to the rear of K95 where the iron oxide residue was found - p. 86 - JAH).
Page 100:-
From RS 8 onwards there are no grooves, nor is there
any need for them as the rain-water runs down the ‘flight of steps’ to
the point where the grooves on the flatter part of the roof collect it
(where the ‘putty’ was needed - JAH) and run it off to the sides. We observed
this for ourselves many times while the roof surface was exposed.
Page 101:-
Another precaution taken to ensure protection for the
monument consisted in packing the interstices of the passage roof with
a mixture of burnt soil and sea sand. The burnt soil had been taken from
a habitation area as it contained small quantities of animal-bone fragments
as well as a few fragmentary flint artefacts. The sea-sand was used principally
in the space under the ‘relieving arch structure where it was packed in
before the burnt soil ‘putty’ had been put in place. So much of the latter
was present (because of the great amount of water running down the ‘flight
of steps’ - JAH) that it seemed probable it had been burnt specially for
the purpose. The sea sand is identical with that on the present sea-shore
around the mouth of the Boyne, 20 km. down river. Samples of the burnt
soil provided (incorrect, for the reason already stated - JAH) radiocarbon
dates centring on 2500 bc for the structure of the tomb (Appendix H).
Having ascertained that the sample material has been corrupted
by water-contamination; as testified to by Professor M. J. O’Kelly himself,
other evidence must be found by which to date the cairn.
Page 105:-
There were no finds of pottery in the tomb (and nothing
by which to date it - JAH).
This is also confirmed by the fact that O’Kelly states
on page 126:-
“ . . . nor was there any trace in the tomb of the Late
Neolithic/Beaker period people who squatted around the edge . . .” (and
there wouldn’t be any evidence of them building it, because it was not
built until long after their time had passed, because the cairn was wrongly
dated as being before instead of after their time - JAH).
Page 215:-
Mammalia
The 116 bones that have been identified as dog belong
to a minimum of three individuals. This number has been established by
the find of one complete left humerus and two left distal humerus fragments.
The bone assemblage seems to consist of
three partial skeletons, one from the East chamber (27 fragments), one
from just outside the End chamber (44 fragments) and one from the West
chamber (45 fragments). The individual from outside the End chamber (lot
1) could be studied in some detail. This was a large dog with a shoulder-height
of c. 64 cm. The spinous processes of its thoracic vertebrae have
rather irregular surfaces and three vertebral bodies exhibit signs of insipient
spondylosis, a pathological condition that is generally brought about by
old age (van Wijngaarden-Bakker and Krauwer 1979). The bones from the two
other partial skeletons are similar in size to the one just described.
The shoulder-height of Neolithic dogs, often described as the palustris-type
usually does not exceed c. 50 cm as is indicated by the dogs from the Beaker
settlement at Newgrange and by those Neolithic levels at Lough Gur (van
Wijngaarden-Bakker 1974 and 1980). The large size of the present
skeletons and above all their preservation condition with yellowish surfaces
but white fractures strongly suggests a recent origin for the bones. Whether
these skeletons belong to stray dogs that were unable to get out of the
tomb or to dogs that were deliberately buried there remains speculative.
(But not really if they died of old age, then they were burials, because
strays would have died of starvation not of old age and could not have
buried themselves - JAH. Iron-Age Celts frequently
deposited the remains of persons of rank, with the favourite hunting dog
in sacred cairns - John T. O’Flaherty, A.B. 26/1/1824, R.I.A.)
There is therefore absolutely no reliable evidence whatsoever
to indicate, and so nothing and absolutely no reason to date
the Newgrange cairn as being Stone Age and a great deal of evidence; physical;
oral and written; to the contrary.
This cairn was built, as legend and Ogham script within
the cairn on Stone C4 in the West Recess tell us, by Eochaidh Ollathair
the Daighda and his son from his marriage-union with Teia Tephi (Tailte)
/ Bovinda, called Aengus/Oengus Mac Ind Oc, who lived in the sixth century
BC. - the Iron Age; not the Stone Age and from whom it acquired its rightful
name - Brug Aengusa or Brug Maic Ind Oc.
The Daighda - Eochaidh Ollathair reigned from c. 633 B.C.
for forty years. The Book of Lecan states that the Daighda had three
sons :- Aedh; Aengus and Cermaidh.
(Celtic Myth and Legend) There is frequent mention of
Bru na Boyne (Ptolemy of Egypt, the second century geographer, drew
a map of Ireland and showed the river Boyne, calling it “Bovinda”. Giraldus
of Wales called it Boandus - Boaengus) in manuscripts dating
from the nine hundreds A.D. onwards, and there can be little doubt that
it had a central part in oral tradition for many centuries before the legends
were written down in the nine hundreds and since then. These Boyne passage-graves
were particularly associated with the Tuatha de Danaan,
who ruled Ireland before the coming of the Celts. Bru na Boangus was a
palace of Eochaidh Ollathair the benevolent Daighda, his consort (wife)
Bovinda (Teia Tephi) and his son Aengus. It was sometimes called “Caiseal
Aengusa”.
In the thirteenth century (1200s) Book of Ballymote the
scribe records that “the hosts of great Meath are buried in the middle
of the lordly-Brugh.” It was the traditional burial-place for the kings
of Tara.
Aengus was the son of Eochaidh Ollathair, the Daighda,
High-king of Tara who reigned at the beginning of the sixth century B.C.
and according to the Annals of the Four Masters he died at
Newgrange in ‘year of the world’ 3450 (554 BC) and so Newgrange is Iron-age
NOT
Stone-age. It was built in the sixth century B.C. with metal tools, using
horses and carts to haul and transport the approx. 200,000 tons of stones.
The age of the cairn is also confirmed by the astronomical
alignment of the cairn with the Winter Solstice sunrise at this time -
600 - 550 BC.
Instrumentation.
AUTOHELM Personal Compass, made
in England. Digital compass. This instrument has a digital
display giving bearings, on Magnetic North, with an accuracy of ±1/2°
due to the fact that it gives bearings in whole degrees only.
Methodology.
A reverse bearing was taken
from a position approximately seven meters south-east of the outlier stone
that is shown in the foreground in the two pictures below, which; at the
very place on the stone (its top S-E corner) that was used for aligning
the passage and roofbox with the Winter Solstice sunrise; has been cut
and dressed, using metal tools. Since the instrument may be sighted
in either direction, the reading was taken with it facing the operator,
towards the sunrise position.
Results.
A bearing of 140° MN was
taken. A calibration factor of -7° 19’ was calculated from the
grid data on Ordnance Survey map #43 (Discovery Series), giving an azimuth
of 132° 41’. According to F. Prendergast (1989), the Winter
Solstice sunrise in 3,150 BC was at azimuth 133° 54’ ± 4’.
The alignment is, therefore, 1° 13’ to the North of the Neolithic Winter
Solstice sunrise position, corresponding to 2,217 years. The result
is a date of 933 BC (± 1,000 years, due to the accuracy of the instrumentation).
With more accurate instrumentation this would give a correct
reading of c. 550 BC, which would also corroborate the age of the cairn
to have been built by Aengus (after whom it is named) and Eochaidh Ollathair
- the Daighda, proving the accuracy and truth of some of the ancient Irish
historical records, that have been discounted by the archaeologists in
favour of their own theories based on unreliable radiocarbon dating. JAH.
Knowth - Cnogba "Nut Lamentation."
Knowth is the English name for Cnogba
"Nut Lamentation".
Magh Macha has a wood, rich in nut-clusters, in the western
part, where the all-pervading aroma of the nuts used to excite the animals.
Emain
Macha - Navan Fort was Nuadh's home. As Nuadh was the much loved brave
and honourable king of Ulster who lived at Emain Macha - Navan; Knowth
is probably Nuadh's Grave, where he was buried after he fell at the Battle
of Unna (Destruction) opposing Bressail "Bodibal" mac Elatha and the people
lamented his death. The tomb entrance-passage faces the entrance of Dowth
so that Nuadh and Bressail would face and oppose each other forever. Around
the tomb are many satellite graves which would be the graves of the soldiers
of lesser rank that fell with Nuadh during the battle, whilst defending
Teia Tephi, who was later wrongfully deified as the goddess Bovinda (Heifer),
or Bo for short. The Battle of Destruction was fought nearby, at Slane.
Legend has it that Lughaidh "Lamhfhada" (long-hand) also
known as "Crom Dubh" (the one bowed to the black haired heifer - Teia
Tephi), the son of the great Ith Cian, the king of Spain, buried his
wife at Knowth.
Above left, the ground-plan of Knowth and above
right,
the ground-plan of Dowth.
Dowth - Dubad "Darkness"
Dowth - Dubad "Darkness" is the tomb of
Bressail "Bodibal" mac Elatha, the son of Elatha ruler of Cornwall in the
sixth century B.C. Bres was a very handsome man, loved by the Irish women
for his good looks but hated by the menfolk for his greed and meanness.
Bres lived in Ireland for some years and was made the
champion and regent of Nuadh of the Silver Hand,
king of Ulster, for seven years, during which time he hoarded wealth and
made the menfolk's lives a misery. On receiving notice from Cornwall he
went home to fetch and escort Teia Tephi, the mother of Aengus who built
Newgrange, from Cornwall to Tara, years before Aengus was born.
At Tara, after Tephi was inaugurated as queen of all Ireland,
the people complained to her about Bres, so she arranged an election in
which he was removed as regent. His laws and taxes were then abolished
and The Torah put in their place. At that point
a number of kings and warlords in the already divided and war-torn country
of Ireland joined Bres and rebelled against Tephi, because under The Real
Law of The Torah, that she brought, they would have to give back all the
wealth that they had un-fairly stolen from the people under their own laws
and taxes that they had made up themselves. A huge battle then transpired,
known as the Battle of Unna (Destruction), where all of the rebel kings
and warlords and their armies led by Bressail the son of Elatha of Cornwall,
fought against Teia Tephi and her army. As Teia Tephi was fighting for
God and His Laws, her army defeated all of the rebels in the battle which
was held at Slane, called the Battle of Unna (Destruction), which commenced
on 31st October of 583 B.C. and lasted for four days.
On the 27th October of 583 B.C., four days before the
battle commenced, there was a Lunar Eclipse in the Constellation of Taurus,
when the Moon would have looked blood-red and would have been interpreted
as an "Omen of Death" and defeat for the Baal-worshippers, whose symbol
is the bull. Taurus being the sign of the bull. The Baal-worshippers led
by Bressail mac Elatha
(known in legend as Bressail "Bodibal" - "Bo
destroyer") fought to destroy God's Chosen, Teia Tephi (Bo) at the
Battle of Destruction, but failed. This Lunar Eclipse is shown in hieroglyphics
in Jeremiah's Tomb, Cairn T at Loughcrew, nr. Oldcastle.
There was a total of six thousand six hundred and sixty-eight
people killed in the Battle of Unna. Five thousand and sixty-three of whom
were on Bressail's side including forty-two kings from various regions
of Ireland, and the rest of the British Isles. From Teia Tephi's army,
only sixteen hundred and five were killed, those of rank from both sides
that fell at the battle were buried at Knowth and those of lower rank were
buried in the many satellite graves around Knowth and through-out the Boyne
Valley.
Bressail, the leader of the rebels, although defeated,
wasn't killed in the battle and after swearing allegiance to Teia Tephi
and The Torah was sent out to help clear the sea of Fomorians (pirates).
The people never forgot his meanness and arrogance and when he died he
was buried in the tomb that was made to face the setting sun rather than
the sunrise and his tomb was named Dowth which is derived from the old
Gaelic word, Dubad, meaning darkness. He had fought for the lord of Darkness
against God the Lord of Light, attempting to defeat and destroy God's Chosen,
Teia Tephi and God's Perfect Law -
The Torah.

The autobiography of Aengus' mother, queen Teia Tephi,
that she wrote in her palace at Teltown, is called
the "Book of Tephi Queen of Tara and Gibraltar".
It is absolutely full of ancient-historical and prophetical information
including prophecies about the near future. It is a fascinating book written
in verse, like the famous Irish Metrical Dindsenchas, and costs only £10.

"Book of Tephi Queen of Tara."
CHAPTER 31
A lamentation of Tephi wherein she giveth instruction.
To be
sung to the harp upon the two thousand four hundred
and
eighty-fourth day (1950).
O, my child, O, Aedh my firstborn, and O, Aedh
my firstborn child,
That lay small and warm on my heart and looked in mine
eyes and smiled
As a flame* thou hast seared my breast, and wert by a
flame beguiled.
O, fair was my strong son Aedh, and O Aedh, my strength,
was fair.
The skies were seen in his eyes. The sun was set in his
hair.
The Mighty hath slain my son. I mourn, yet He might not
spare.
O, mine eyes are rivers of tears, and O, rivers of tears
are my eyes.
I sat in the seat of folly. I walked not amongst the wise.
I sowed a seed of destruction. Its fruits are foulness
and lies.
O, let evil be upon Canaan, and O, upon Canaan be every
ill.
Why hale ye their women hither, that are harlots on every
hill,
That are brazen in dances to Baal, that are wanton in
all their will?
O, hear me, my chosen, my husband, and O, my husband,
my chosen, hear.
I have erred and have done great evil. My burden is heavy
to bear.
This mocking was mine not thine. Yet my shame hath been
thine to share.
O, heed me Aengus, my son, and O, Aengus, my son, take
heed.
Thy brother is black in the pit. He stinks as a rotten
reed.
Thou barest the branch of blessing. Thy Stone is chosen
for seed.
Yet I know thee, O, Aengus, my son, and O, Aengus, my
son, I know
Thy pomp and thy pride of heart. Thy flame burneth on
and fro (Deut. 17:20).
It flashes fire in the sky. Its light is sunken and low.
I divine thee, O Aengus, my son, and, O Aengus, my son,
I divine
Thy spirit unscarred by the thorns. Thou shalt seek only
the gold of that sign (the cross).
Thy heart is not with the High One**. With sinners thou
sittest at wine.
I behold thy grave§, O, my son, and thy grave, O,
my son, I behold.
Thy grave-mound is glorious and great. Thou graspest there
on thy gold,
Yet the heathen shall find thy hoard ere the hill of thy
height wax old.
O, thy treasure is heaped upon earth, and O, with earth
is thy treasure-heap.
Thou art e'en as the kings of Egypt. Thou sinkest down
in thy sleep.
But thieves shall find thee therein, and the snail and
the slow worm creep.
Thy toiling is waste, O Aengus, and, O Aengus, waste is
thy toil.
Thy masons build thee a mansion. The spoiler shall make
it a spoil,
For thy zeal is not unto Zion, nor thine heart anointed
with oil.
O, may the Bright Reign come by thee, and O may
my
White King come.
His sheep He leadeth in spirit.
He rebuketh them lest they roam.
He blesseth their lambs in His Bosom. They hear Him at
"Eve" and go Home.
O, hear ye the Promise of Israel, and O, Israel, this
promise hear.
Let your watchmen know of the "Night". Let them count
when the stars grow clear.
Let them strongly shout in the Gate (Gibraltar)
if a presage of "Dawn" appear.
O, rest ye your faith upon David, and O on David let fealty
rest.
In righteous judgments He rideth. His wise men gaze from
the West.
His house on the hill-tops is holy. His Symbols shine
on His Breast (The Breastplate of Aaron).
O, He rides as a King in Glory, and O, in glory my King
doth ride.
The nations are scattered beneath Him. In their eyries
the eagles hide.
As a lion He leaps in His strength. What man shall His
might abide?
O, springs gush out by the Hill, and O, from the Hill
there gush forth springs.
O'er the path of his chosen people, the vessels bear wealth
unto kings.
The ships of the sea pass over. The waters are white with
their wings.
O, broad is the stream of Jordan, and O, Jordan thy streams
are broad.
The seas have set thee in might. No steed shall swim by
thy ford,
Where the House of the High One is builded, the Holy House
of the Lord.
O, now I depart in peace, and O, peace is my part as I
go.
I have lived the days of my life. I have joyed and wandered
in woe.
I am feeble and fain would rest, from my travelling to
and fro.
But O, that day I am fain to behold, and O, I fain would
behold that day.
Raise up the stones from my sidhe+. Cleanse ye my bones
from the clay.
Let me see the Son of my Strength, for my spirit shall
be his stay.
* Aedh, a flame.
** Deuteronomy 17:14-20.
§ Aengus, of the Brugh, is now best remembered
by his enormous tumulus (Newgrange), which was plundered by the Danes,
exactly as Tephi prophesied. Aengus is also known as "In Mac Oc", which
means "The Young Son."
+ Tumulus with chamber at the centre, pronounced "shee".
I wish to fulfill her final request to have the stones
raised up from her sidhe and her bones cleansed from the clay at Tara,
so she can see the Son of her Strength and her spirit be his stay: to finally
bring lasting peace to Ireland and let the "Bright Reign" come. Amen -
JAH
