Notes for Milesius , King of Spain | ||||||
AKA "Gallamh `Milesius' King in/of SPAIN; Mil Espane MacBile. ___ Per tradition, the Celts of Ireland descend from three sons of Milesius: Heremon (Eremon), Heber (Eber), and Ir, and from his uncle Ithe. ___ Stevens has this note: Courtesy of Michael R.

The Prehistoric Section-From the seventh century onwards, Irish monks were involved in manufacturing a history for themselves to fill the gap between biblical history and (their) modern history. As a result, any competent medieval Irish historian could trace the supposed genealogy of any of the modern kings of Irish descent back to Adam, through fabulous, then biblical antecedents. This has been done, for interest's sake only, as this section has no historical reliability. I have, here, given the names as they appear in early Irish documents, and adopted, of the many possible versions, that from various sections of the twelfth-century Irish manuscript known as Rawlinson B. 502.

On another of his expeditions he discovered Ireland and settled there." | ||||||
