THE ORIGINS OF MANKIND
ANCESTRY OF JESUS
MOTHER MARY, JOSEPH AND JESUS, THE TRUTH
John of Damascus seems to have made the argument for Luke’s genealogy following Mary’s descent. According to ancient tradition, Mary’s parents were Joachim and Anna of the Tribe of Levi, and Joseph, son of Jacob and Mary, was of the Tribe of Judah. Jesus had younger brothers and sisters according to [Matthew 13:55-56; Mark 3:31-32; Galatians 1:19]. King Herod wed Salome, a sister of Mother Mary, therefore, King Herod and Salome were close family to Jesus. Mary’s sister Anne wed Joachim ben Levi, her sister Elizabeth wed Zachariah ben Levi (parents of John the Baptist), and her sister Dina wed Zadok ben Levi. Joachim and Zachariah, were first cousins.
Following the birth of Jesus in Bethlehem, Joseph, a carpenter, is told by an angel in a dream to take the family to Egypt for work. Joseph was the nephew of King Herod the Great who was king of Judea from 37-4 BC, he was from the Tribe of Judah as well. King Herod was appointed ruler by the Roman Empire after its Senate equipped him with an army to fight off a Parthian invasion. Herod had been ruler of the Roman province of Judea and prior to the invasion he had been governor of Galilee since 47 BCE. Herod was a Roman Jewish client king of the Herodian Kingdom of Judea and is known for his colossal building of Bethlehem.
Joseph, by that time a well-respected carpenter, designer and builder, assisted his uncle King Haold in rebuilding Bethlehem. Joseph had been trained by his uncle Judas, brother of Mary, for many years who was also a well-respected carpenter and builder. After living with his wife’s parents for about 2 years, Joseph moved to Bethlehem to work and live there with Mary. Prior to moving to Bethlehem, Joseph was made to join the Roman army before being allowed to return to Nazareth at age 21. Joseph and Mary met when she was 17 and married at 18, having lived together as man and wife for 3 years prior to going into the Roman Army.
Herod's reign over Judea is recorded in the Gospel of Matthew. After the birth of Jesus, a group of magi from the East visited Herod to inquire the whereabouts of "the one having been born king of the Jews", because they had seen his star rising in the east and therefore wanted to pay him homage. Herod, as King of the Jews, was excited at the prospect of his birth. Herod assembled the chief priests and scribes of the people and asked them where the "Anointed One" was to be born. They answered, in Bethlehem, citing Micah 5:2.
Herod sent the magi to Bethlehem, instructing them to search for the child and, after they had found him, to "report to me, so that I too may go and worship him". Herod never intended to cause harm to Jesus, nor was Joseph warned in a dream that Heron intended to kill Jesus, nor did King Herod give orders to kill all boys under the age of two. Most modern biographers of Herod, and some biblical scholars, dismiss Matthew’s story.
Contemporary non-biblical sources, including Josephus and the surviving writings of Nicolaus of Damascus (who knew Herod personally), provide no corroboration for Matthew's account of the massacre, and it is not mentioned in the Gospel of Luke. Classical historian Michael Grant states "the tale is not history but myth or folk-lore", while Peter Richardson notes that the story's absence from the Gospel of Luke and the accounts of Josephus "works against the account's accuracy". Not to mention the myth that Herod murdered his own sons.
The Tribe of Levi in the Bible or Torah is part of the 12 tribes of Israel that descended from the family line Levi. Levi was a descendant of Jacob (Israel) who is the son of Isaac, son of Abraham. Abrahamic religions of Judaism, Islam, and Christianity also hold Levi as a prominent member of their religions. The book of Genesis tells us the fourth of the six sons of Jacob and Leah were the founder of the Tribe of Judah of the Israelites and is indirectly the eponym of the Kingdom of Judah in the land of Judea and the word Jew and according to the narrative in Genesis Judah alongside Tamar is a patrilineal ancestor of the ancestor of the Davidic line. According to Christian narrative he was the ancestor of Jesus (Yeshua).
A 35 AD leather-bound text known as the “Gospel of Barnabas” and in the “lost gospel” kept in Turkey, we learn Jesus was not crucified, but rather it was Judas. After the switch, Jesus was taken to safety according to the information written by Barnabas, His disciple. Documents show Jesus was held overnight in the High Priest Caiaphas' house and later arrested in the Garden of Gethsemane and taken to Caiaphas for trial at night. He was later taken to King Herod (Joseph’s uncle) and from there to the Roman Governor, Pontius Pilate. As Pontius Pilate, Caiaphas the high priest, the elders and the scribes assembled, the council sought false testimony against Jesus and the following morning Judas was bound and led away to the Romans for execution.

THE ORIGIN OF THE PLANETS
BY WANDA WARE DEGIDIO
BY WANDA WARE DEGIDIO
Chaos - A disordered formless mass from which the cosmos produced the ordered universe. Creator Ether, (C2H6) Diethyl Ether, was darkness and God to the upper sky and of the night. Hemera was created next after God said let there be light, she was Source, sunlight, heat and the Goddess of the daytime. Diethyl Ether is a flammable liquid and an explosive hazard when exposed to heat. A chemical reaction occurred from which came the big bang.
Gaia (mother earth) created Uranus her husband, she was also the consort of Heylel. With Uranus she had the following Titans according to Hesiod: Tethys, Oceanus, Coeus, Crius, Hyperion, Poseidon, Theia, Rhea, Themis, Mnemosyne, Phoebe and Cronus. Gaia referred to the Sun God Heylel as, “the love of her life” and God referred to him as the “shining one” or “light bearer” in Hebrew, and He said he was “the seal of perfection, full of wisdom and perfect in beauty … You were perfect in your ways from the day you were created” (Ezekiel 28:12, 15) ... created by God to be perfect. flawless, brilliant and beautiful. In Greek mythology, Heylel created the infernal regions of the lower dimensions, and as a warden contained God’s enemies, keeping darkness from overtaking the light. Besides being the king of the underworld, Heylel is one of the personified elements of the world, along with Gaia and others. Heylel and Gaia had a son Phaethon as well as many sons and daughters, to include Aeschylus and Ovid.
Titan Olympian God Cronus, son of Gaia and Uranus, was the God of time, and the consort of Titan Olympian Goddess Rhea, his sister. Rhea was the Goddess of fertility, motherhood and generations. Rhea was the mother of the 5 eldest Olympian Gods: Hestia, Demeter, Hera, Poseidon, and Zeus, as well as Hades, king of the underworld, eldest son of Cronus and Rhea. Titan Olympian God Oceanus, was the God who regulated heavenly bodies, fresh water, rivers, wells and rain, and was the son of Gaia and Uranus and was the consort of his sister Tethys, Goddess of the primal font of fresh water. Tethys was a mother of three thousand river Gods and three thousand Oceanids or water nymphs.
Poseidon, God of the sea, created Poseidonis (later Atlantis) which became the Garden of Eden, in order to have alternate zones of land and sea, two of land and three of water, in a rotund shape around the heart of Poseidonis. This allowed animals and plants to thrive, providing a wide variety of food sources. Then he brought forth two different springs of water, one of cold and one of heat from the hill in the center. His symbols were: Trident, Fish, Dolphin, Horse and Bull. He was also God of earthquakes, storms and horses and the father of the Merpeople and the Romans called him Neptune. Poseidon married Clymene, daughter of Oceanus and Tethys, and his first cousin. Clymene was Goddess of renown, fame and infamy. Their children were Theseus, Triton, Rhodos, Benthesikyme, Arion, Despoina, Polyphemus, Orion, Belus, Agenor, Neleus, Atlas, Pegasus, Chrysaor, Kymopoleia, Bellerophon, and various others.

THE GREEK GODS
TITANS - Hesiod states the Titan offspring of Uranus and Gaia were Oceanus, Coeus, Crius, Hyperion, Poseidon (father of Atlas), Theia, Rhea, Themis, Mnemosyne, Phoebe, Tethys, and Cronus (father of Zeus one of the Titan Olympian gods). Eight of the Titan brothers and sisters married one another: Oceanus and Tethys, Coeus and Phoebe, Hyperion and Theia, and Cronus and Rhea. The two others married outside the family. Poseidon married his niece Clymene, daughter of Oceanus and Tethys, Crius married his half-sister Eurybia, daughter of Gaia and Pontus. The other two Titan sisters, Themis and Mnemosyne, wed their nephew Zeus. From Oceanus and Tethys came river gods which encircled the entire world, and Oceanid nymphs. From Coeus and Phoebe came Leto, another wife of Zeus, and Asteria. From Crius and Eurybia came Astraeus, Pallas, and Perses. From Hyperion and Theia came the celestial Helios (Sun), Selene (Moon), and Eos (Dawn). From Poseidon and Clymene came Atlas, Menoetius, Prometheus, and Epimetheus. From Cronus and Rhea came the Olympians: Hestia, Demeter, Hera, Hades, Poseidon, and Zeus. By Zeus, Themis bore the three Hours, and the three Fates, and Mnemosyne bore the nine Muses. Some descendants of the Titans Oceanus and Tethys, Cronus and Rhea, Themis, and Mnemosyne are not Titans, however, Leto, Heylel / Helois, Atlas, and Prometheus, at times are referred to as Titans. Atlas, son of Poseidon, plays a role in the Greek heroes: Hercules and Perseus. He became identified with the Atlas Mountains in Africa and was the first King of Morocco. Atlas was skilled in philosophy, mathematics, and astronomy and invented astronomy. Atlas wed the goddess Clymene. The "Atlantic Ocean" is derived from "Sea of Atlas". The name of Atlantis per Plato's Timaeus' dialogue means "Atlas's Island". In Greek mythology, Atlas was tasked with holding up the heavens after the Titanomachy.
ZEUS - Zeus, son of Tital Olympian’s Cronus and Rhea, he wed Hera, and had Ares, Eileithyia, Hebe, and Hephaestus. At the oracle of Dodona, per the Iliad, he and Dione had Aphrodite. Theogony states Zeus' first wife was Metis, and they had Athena. Many stories exist of Zeus’ erotic escapades leading to divine and heroic offspring, including Apollo, Artemis, Hermes, Persephone, Dionysus, Perseus, Heracles, Helen of Troy, Minos, and the Muses. Tails of Dardanus, Zeus’ son and the Pleiad named Electra, exist in many Greek tails. Arcadia tells us, Dardanus wed Chryse, and had sons, Idaeus and Deimas. After a great flood, Dardanus and his tribe moved to Samothrace and later Asia Minor to find fertile land. Virgil's Aeneid states, Dardanus was born in Italy, after his mother Electra wed Corythus, king of Tarquinia. Zeus was the brother of Poseidon and uncle of Atlas.
DARDANUS - Dardanus was the King of Dardania and the son of Zeus and Electra. Electra was one of the Pleiades, the seven daughters of Atlas and Pleione. She lived on the island of Samothrace. Electra was connected with the legend of the Palladium, the sacred statue, which became the talismanic protector of Troy. Dardanus was the brother of Iasion and Harmonia and Emathion. From Arcadia, Dardanus married Chryse, with whom he fathered two sons, Idaeus and Deimas. Dardanus later married Batea, the daughter of King Teucer, and founded the city of Dardanus on Mount Ida, which became the capital of his kingdom. He also founded the city of Thymbra and expanded his kingdom by waging successful wars against his neighbors. Dardanus had several children with Batea, including Ilus, Erichthonius, Idaea, and Zacynthus. He reigned for 64 or 65 years before being succeeded by his son Ilus.
ILUS - Ilus was son of Dardanus and Batea, he wed Eurydice. He was the founder of the city called Ilios or Ilion to which he gave his name. When the latter became the chief city of the Trojan people it was also often called Troy, the name by which it is best known today. Ilus was son and heir to Tros of Dardania and brother of Assaracus and Ganymede. He won the wrestling prize at games held by the King of Phrygia and received fifty youths and maidens as his reward. The king also, on the advice of an oracle, gave him a cow and asked him to found a city where it should lie down. Ilus did so. Ilus then prayed to Zeus for a sign and at once saw the Palladium fallen from heaven and lying before his tent. He made offerings to Athena. Ilus preferred his new city of Ilium to Dardania and on his father's death he remained there, bestowing the rule of Dardania on his brother Assaracus instead and so the Trojans were split into two kingdoms. Ilus was father of Laomedon who succeeded him. His wife was said to be either Eurydice (daughter of Adrastus), or Leucippe. Other children of Ilus included, Themiste (or Themis) and Telecleia, who wed Capys and Cisseus, respectively.
LAOMEDON - King Laomedon of Troy, son of Ilus and his wife Strymo. When Laomedon refused to give the gods Apollo and Poseidon a promised reward for building the walls of Troy. Laomedon had a number of sons, including Lampus and Priam, Clytius, and several daughters, including Hesione. Priam though was not named Priam at this time for he named Podarces, and his change of name has to do with the actions of Hercules and Priam's father, Laomedon. Laomedon was buried near the Scaean Gate, and, was told as long as his grave remained undisturbed, the walls of Troy would stand. The temple of Aphaea on Aegina depicted Hercules’ sack of Troy; and are on display in Munich’s Glyptothek. The west pediment of the same structure depicted the famous Trojan War. An oracle revealed to Laomedon that the only way to save Troy would be to sacrifice his daughter Hesione, so Hesione was bound to a rock to await her death. But Hercules, stepped forward and offered to rescue Hesione in exchange for Laomedon’s divine horses. (Zeus himself had given the horses to Tros, Laomedon’s grandfather, in exchange for Ganymede - Tros’s son and Laomedon’s uncle - whom Zeus, had kidnapped.) Once Hercules saved Hesione, however, Laomedon refused to give up the horses. Hercules left Troy and returned with a band of warriors, captured the city, and killed Laomedon and all his sons except Priam and Tithonus. Hercules gave Hesione to Telamon, who bravely fought at his side. Hesione later became the mother of legendary archer Teucer, who was praised in Homer’s Iliad.
PRIAM - Trojan ‘High King’ Priam King of Troy and King of the Scythians and son of Laomedon of Troy, and his wife Strymo. He wed Hecuba of Phrygia, children were: Troan, Alexander "Paris", Helenus, Creusa, Laodice, Polyxena, Cassandra, Deiphobus, Hector, Pammon, Polites, Antphus, Hipponous, Polydorus, and Tro. Strymo was born in Troy, Macedonia, Turkey. His first wife was Arisbe and by this marriage they had son Aesacus who met his death before the advent of the Trojan War. Priam later divorced her in favor of Hecuba (or Hecebe), daughter of the Phrygian king Dymas. By his various wives and concubines Priam was the father of fifty sons and nineteen daughters. Hector was Priam's eldest son by Hecuba, and heir to the Trojan throne. Paris, another son, was the cause of the Trojan War. Other children of Priam and Hecuba include the prophetic Helenus and Cassandra; eldest daughter Ilione; Deiphobus; Troilus; Polites; Creusa, wife of Aeneas; Laodice, wife of Helicaon; Polyxena, who was slaughtered on the grave of Achilles; and Polydorus, his youngest son. Priam was originally called Podarces and he kept himself from being killed by Hercules by giving him a golden veil embroidered by his sister, Hesione. After this, Podarces changed his name to Priam. He remains the most famous name from Greek mythology among the Greek gods and goddesses. When Hector is killed by Achilles, Achilles treats the body with disrespect and refuses to give it back. Zeus sends the god Hermes to escort King Priam, Hector’s father and the ruler of Troy, into the Greek camp. Priam tearfully pleads with Achilles to take pity on a father bereft of his son and return Hector’s body. He invokes the memory of Achilles’ own father, Peleus. Priam begs Achilles to pity him, saying "I have endured what no one on earth has ever done before - I put my lips to the hands of the man who killed my son". Deeply moved, Achilles finally relents and returns Hector’s corpse to the Trojans. Both sides agree to a temporary truce, and Hector receives a hero’s funeral. Achilles further goes on to give Priam leave to hold a proper funeral for Hector complete with funeral games. He promises that no Greek will engage in combat for 11 days, but on the 12th day of peace, the mighty war between the Greeks and the Trojans would resume. Priam is killed during the Sack of Troy by Neoptolemus (or Pyrrhus) son of Achilles. His death is graphically related in Book II of Virgil's Aeneid. In Virgil's description Neoptolemus first kills Priam's son Polites as he seeks sanctuary on the altar of Zeus. Priam rebukes Neoptolemus, throwing a spear at him, which misses. Neoptolemus then drags Priam to the altar and there kills him too. It has been suggested by Hittite sources, specifically the Manapa-Tarhunta letter that there is historical basis for the archetype of King Priam. The letter describes one Piyama-Radu as a troublesome rebel who overthrew a Hittite client king and thereafter established his own rule over the city of Troy (mentioned as Wilusa in Hittite). There is also mention of an Alaksandu, suggested to be Paris Alexander (King Priam's son from the Iliad), a later ruler of the city of Wilusa who established peace between Wilusa and Hatti (see the Alaksandu treaty).
HELENUS - Helenus, High King of Troy, King of the Scythians and King of Epirus, he was born in Troy, Turkey. Only two sons of Priam mentioned by Homer are said to have survived: Helenus and Agathon. Helenus of Andromache had Franco of the Scythians. Helenus, like his twin Cassandra, possessed the power of prophesy. He was captured by the Greeks and disclosed to them how Troy could be captured. This traitorous act may have been the reason why he fled from Troy after its destruction and the inhabitants chose a new ruler. Herodotus also mentions a royal tribe or clan, an elite which dominated the other Scythians. On the other side of the Gerros we have those parts which are called the "Royal" lands and those Scythians who are the bravest and most numerous and who esteem the other Scythians their slaves. The elder brothers then, acknowledging the significance of this thing, delivered the whole of the kingly power to the youngest. From Lixopais, they say, are descended those Scythians who are called the race of the Auchatai; from the middle brother Arpoxais those who are called Catiaroi and Traspians, and from the youngest of them the "Royal" tribe, who are called Paralatai: and the whole together are called, they say, Scolotoi, after the name of their king; but the Hellenes gave them the name of Scythians. Thus the Scythians say they were produced; and from the time of their origin, that is to say from the first king Targitaos, to the passing over of Dareios [the Persian Emperor Darius I] against them, they say that there is a period of a thousand years and no more. This royal clan is also named in other classical sources the "Royal Dahae". The rich burials of Scythian kings in (kurgans) is independent evidence for the existence of this powerful royal elite. Although scholars have traditionally treated the three tribes as geographically distinct, Georges Dumézil interpreted the divine gifts as the symbols of social occupations, illustrating his trifunctional vision of early Indo-European societies: the plough and yoke symbolised the farmers, the axe - the warriors, the bowl - the priests. According to Dumézil, "the fruitless attempts of Arpoxais and Lipoxais, in contrast to the success of Colaxais, may explain why the highest strata was not that of farmers or magicians, but rather that of warriors." Ruled by small numbers of closely-allied élites, Scythians had a reputation for their archers, and many gained employment as mercenaries. Scythian élites had kurgan tombs: high barrows heaped over chamber-tombs of larch-wood - a deciduous conifer that may have had special significance as a tree of life-renewal, for it stands bare in that may have had special significance as a tree of life-renewal, for it stands bare in winter. Burials at Pazyryk in the Altay Mountains have included some spectacularly preserved Scythians of the "Pazyryk culture" - including the Ice Maiden. Scythian women dressed in much the same fashion as men, and at times fought alongside them in battle. A Pazyryk burial found in the 1990s contained the skeletons of a man and a woman, each with weapons, arrowheads, and an axe. In the 1998 NOVA documentary "Ice Mummies", an archaeologist explains that, "The woman was dressed exactly like a man. This shows that certain women, probably young and unmarried, could be warriors, literally Amazons. It didn't offend the principles of nomadic society." Anthropologist Hermann Baumann recorded male-to-female transsexual priestesses among the Scythians as well, pointing to a broad range of gender expression in the culture. As far as we know, the Scythians had no writing system. Until recent archaeological developments, most of our information about them came from the Greeks. The Ziwiye hoard, a treasure of gold and silver metalwork and ivory found near the town of Sakizsouth of Lake Urmia and dated to between 680 and 625 BCE, includes objects with Scythian "animal style" features. One silver dish from this find bears some inscriptions, as yet undeciphered and so possibly representing a form of Scythian writing. Homer called the Scythians"the mare-milkers". Herodotus described them in detail: their costume consisted of padded and quilted leather trousers tucked into boots, and open tunics. They rode with no stirrups or saddles, just saddle-cloths. Herodotus reports that Scythians used cannabis, both to weave their clothing and to cleanse themselves in its smoke (Hist. 4.73-75); archaeology has confirmed the use of cannabis in funeral rituals. The Scythian philosopher Anacharsis visited Athens in the 6th century BCE and became a legendary sage. Herodotus wroteabout an enormous city, Gelonus, in the northern part of Scythia (4.108): "The Budini are a large and powerful nation: they have all deep blue eyes, and bright red hair. There is a city in their territory, called Gelonus, which is surrounded with a lofty wall, thirty furlongs = ca. 5,5 km each way, built entirely of wood. All the houses in the place and all the temples are of the same material. Here are temples built in honour of the Grecian gods, and adorned after the Greek fashion with images, altars, and shrines, all in wood. There is even a festival, held every third year in honour of Bacchus, at which the natives fall into the Bacchic fury. For the fact is that the Geloni were anciently Greeks, who, being driven out of the factories along the coast, fled to the Budini and took up their abode with them. They still speak a language half Greek, half Scythian." (transl. Rawlinson) Herodotus and other classical historians listed quite a number of tribes who lived near the Scythians, and presumably shared the same general milieu and nomadic steppe culture, often called "Scythian culture", even though scholars may have difficulties in determining their exact relationship to the "linguistic Scythians". A partial list of these tribes includes the Agathyrsi, Geloni, Budini, and Neuri. Herodotus presented four different versions of Scythian origins: Firstly (4.7), the Scythians' legend about themselves, which portrays the first Scythian king, Targitaus, as the child of the sky-god and of a daughter of the Dnieper. Targitaus allegedly lived a thousand years before the failed Persian invasion of Scythia, or around 1500 BCE. He had three sons, before whom fell from the sky a set of four golden implements - a plough, a yoke, a cup and a battle-axe. Only the youngest son succeeded in touching the golden implements without them bursting with fire, and this son's descendants, called by Herodotus the "Royal Scythians", continued to guard them. Secondly (4.8), a legend told by the Pontic Greeks featuring Scythes, the first king of the Scythians, as a child of Hercules and a monster. Thirdly (4.11), in the version which Herodotus said he believed most, the Scythians came from a more southern part of Central Asia, until a war with the Massagetae (a powerful tribe of steppe nomads who lived just northeast of Persia) forced them westward. Finally (4.13), a legend which Herodotus attributed to the Greek bard Aristeas, who claimed to have got himself into such a Bachanalian fury that he ran all the way northeast across Scythia and further. According to this, the Scythians originally lived south of the Rhipaean mountains, until they got into a conflict with a tribe called the Issedones, pressed in their turn by the Cyclopes; and so the Scythians decided to migrate westwards. Persians and other peoples in Asia referred to the Scythians living in Asia as Sakas. Herodotus describes them as Scythians, although they figure under a different name: "The Sacae, or Scyths, were clad in trousers, and had on their heads tall stiff caps rising to a point. They bore the bow of their country and the dagger; besides which they carried the battle-axe, or sagaris. They were in truth Amyrgian (Western) Scythians, but the Persians called them Sacae, since that is the name which they gave to all Scythians." (Herodotus 4.64) Helenus of Troy King of the Scythians and Andromache had the following child: Franco.
TITANS - Hesiod states the Titan offspring of Uranus and Gaia were Oceanus, Coeus, Crius, Hyperion, Poseidon (father of Atlas), Theia, Rhea, Themis, Mnemosyne, Phoebe, Tethys, and Cronus (father of Zeus one of the Titan Olympian gods). Eight of the Titan brothers and sisters married one another: Oceanus and Tethys, Coeus and Phoebe, Hyperion and Theia, and Cronus and Rhea. The two others married outside the family. Poseidon married his niece Clymene, daughter of Oceanus and Tethys, Crius married his half-sister Eurybia, daughter of Gaia and Pontus. The other two Titan sisters, Themis and Mnemosyne, wed their nephew Zeus. From Oceanus and Tethys came river gods which encircled the entire world, and Oceanid nymphs. From Coeus and Phoebe came Leto, another wife of Zeus, and Asteria. From Crius and Eurybia came Astraeus, Pallas, and Perses. From Hyperion and Theia came the celestial Helios (Sun), Selene (Moon), and Eos (Dawn). From Poseidon and Clymene came Atlas, Menoetius, Prometheus, and Epimetheus. From Cronus and Rhea came the Olympians: Hestia, Demeter, Hera, Hades, Poseidon, and Zeus. By Zeus, Themis bore the three Hours, and the three Fates, and Mnemosyne bore the nine Muses. Some descendants of the Titans Oceanus and Tethys, Cronus and Rhea, Themis, and Mnemosyne are not Titans, however, Leto, Heylel / Helois, Atlas, and Prometheus, at times are referred to as Titans. Atlas, son of Poseidon, plays a role in the Greek heroes: Hercules and Perseus. He became identified with the Atlas Mountains in Africa and was the first King of Morocco. Atlas was skilled in philosophy, mathematics, and astronomy and invented astronomy. Atlas wed the goddess Clymene. The "Atlantic Ocean" is derived from "Sea of Atlas". The name of Atlantis per Plato's Timaeus' dialogue means "Atlas's Island". In Greek mythology, Atlas was tasked with holding up the heavens after the Titanomachy.
ZEUS - Zeus, son of Tital Olympian’s Cronus and Rhea, he wed Hera, and had Ares, Eileithyia, Hebe, and Hephaestus. At the oracle of Dodona, per the Iliad, he and Dione had Aphrodite. Theogony states Zeus' first wife was Metis, and they had Athena. Many stories exist of Zeus’ erotic escapades leading to divine and heroic offspring, including Apollo, Artemis, Hermes, Persephone, Dionysus, Perseus, Heracles, Helen of Troy, Minos, and the Muses. Tails of Dardanus, Zeus’ son and the Pleiad named Electra, exist in many Greek tails. Arcadia tells us, Dardanus wed Chryse, and had sons, Idaeus and Deimas. After a great flood, Dardanus and his tribe moved to Samothrace and later Asia Minor to find fertile land. Virgil's Aeneid states, Dardanus was born in Italy, after his mother Electra wed Corythus, king of Tarquinia. Zeus was the brother of Poseidon and uncle of Atlas.
DARDANUS - Dardanus was the King of Dardania and the son of Zeus and Electra. Electra was one of the Pleiades, the seven daughters of Atlas and Pleione. She lived on the island of Samothrace. Electra was connected with the legend of the Palladium, the sacred statue, which became the talismanic protector of Troy. Dardanus was the brother of Iasion and Harmonia and Emathion. From Arcadia, Dardanus married Chryse, with whom he fathered two sons, Idaeus and Deimas. Dardanus later married Batea, the daughter of King Teucer, and founded the city of Dardanus on Mount Ida, which became the capital of his kingdom. He also founded the city of Thymbra and expanded his kingdom by waging successful wars against his neighbors. Dardanus had several children with Batea, including Ilus, Erichthonius, Idaea, and Zacynthus. He reigned for 64 or 65 years before being succeeded by his son Ilus.
ILUS - Ilus was son of Dardanus and Batea, he wed Eurydice. He was the founder of the city called Ilios or Ilion to which he gave his name. When the latter became the chief city of the Trojan people it was also often called Troy, the name by which it is best known today. Ilus was son and heir to Tros of Dardania and brother of Assaracus and Ganymede. He won the wrestling prize at games held by the King of Phrygia and received fifty youths and maidens as his reward. The king also, on the advice of an oracle, gave him a cow and asked him to found a city where it should lie down. Ilus did so. Ilus then prayed to Zeus for a sign and at once saw the Palladium fallen from heaven and lying before his tent. He made offerings to Athena. Ilus preferred his new city of Ilium to Dardania and on his father's death he remained there, bestowing the rule of Dardania on his brother Assaracus instead and so the Trojans were split into two kingdoms. Ilus was father of Laomedon who succeeded him. His wife was said to be either Eurydice (daughter of Adrastus), or Leucippe. Other children of Ilus included, Themiste (or Themis) and Telecleia, who wed Capys and Cisseus, respectively.
LAOMEDON - King Laomedon of Troy, son of Ilus and his wife Strymo. When Laomedon refused to give the gods Apollo and Poseidon a promised reward for building the walls of Troy. Laomedon had a number of sons, including Lampus and Priam, Clytius, and several daughters, including Hesione. Priam though was not named Priam at this time for he named Podarces, and his change of name has to do with the actions of Hercules and Priam's father, Laomedon. Laomedon was buried near the Scaean Gate, and, was told as long as his grave remained undisturbed, the walls of Troy would stand. The temple of Aphaea on Aegina depicted Hercules’ sack of Troy; and are on display in Munich’s Glyptothek. The west pediment of the same structure depicted the famous Trojan War. An oracle revealed to Laomedon that the only way to save Troy would be to sacrifice his daughter Hesione, so Hesione was bound to a rock to await her death. But Hercules, stepped forward and offered to rescue Hesione in exchange for Laomedon’s divine horses. (Zeus himself had given the horses to Tros, Laomedon’s grandfather, in exchange for Ganymede - Tros’s son and Laomedon’s uncle - whom Zeus, had kidnapped.) Once Hercules saved Hesione, however, Laomedon refused to give up the horses. Hercules left Troy and returned with a band of warriors, captured the city, and killed Laomedon and all his sons except Priam and Tithonus. Hercules gave Hesione to Telamon, who bravely fought at his side. Hesione later became the mother of legendary archer Teucer, who was praised in Homer’s Iliad.
PRIAM - Trojan ‘High King’ Priam King of Troy and King of the Scythians and son of Laomedon of Troy, and his wife Strymo. He wed Hecuba of Phrygia, children were: Troan, Alexander "Paris", Helenus, Creusa, Laodice, Polyxena, Cassandra, Deiphobus, Hector, Pammon, Polites, Antphus, Hipponous, Polydorus, and Tro. Strymo was born in Troy, Macedonia, Turkey. His first wife was Arisbe and by this marriage they had son Aesacus who met his death before the advent of the Trojan War. Priam later divorced her in favor of Hecuba (or Hecebe), daughter of the Phrygian king Dymas. By his various wives and concubines Priam was the father of fifty sons and nineteen daughters. Hector was Priam's eldest son by Hecuba, and heir to the Trojan throne. Paris, another son, was the cause of the Trojan War. Other children of Priam and Hecuba include the prophetic Helenus and Cassandra; eldest daughter Ilione; Deiphobus; Troilus; Polites; Creusa, wife of Aeneas; Laodice, wife of Helicaon; Polyxena, who was slaughtered on the grave of Achilles; and Polydorus, his youngest son. Priam was originally called Podarces and he kept himself from being killed by Hercules by giving him a golden veil embroidered by his sister, Hesione. After this, Podarces changed his name to Priam. He remains the most famous name from Greek mythology among the Greek gods and goddesses. When Hector is killed by Achilles, Achilles treats the body with disrespect and refuses to give it back. Zeus sends the god Hermes to escort King Priam, Hector’s father and the ruler of Troy, into the Greek camp. Priam tearfully pleads with Achilles to take pity on a father bereft of his son and return Hector’s body. He invokes the memory of Achilles’ own father, Peleus. Priam begs Achilles to pity him, saying "I have endured what no one on earth has ever done before - I put my lips to the hands of the man who killed my son". Deeply moved, Achilles finally relents and returns Hector’s corpse to the Trojans. Both sides agree to a temporary truce, and Hector receives a hero’s funeral. Achilles further goes on to give Priam leave to hold a proper funeral for Hector complete with funeral games. He promises that no Greek will engage in combat for 11 days, but on the 12th day of peace, the mighty war between the Greeks and the Trojans would resume. Priam is killed during the Sack of Troy by Neoptolemus (or Pyrrhus) son of Achilles. His death is graphically related in Book II of Virgil's Aeneid. In Virgil's description Neoptolemus first kills Priam's son Polites as he seeks sanctuary on the altar of Zeus. Priam rebukes Neoptolemus, throwing a spear at him, which misses. Neoptolemus then drags Priam to the altar and there kills him too. It has been suggested by Hittite sources, specifically the Manapa-Tarhunta letter that there is historical basis for the archetype of King Priam. The letter describes one Piyama-Radu as a troublesome rebel who overthrew a Hittite client king and thereafter established his own rule over the city of Troy (mentioned as Wilusa in Hittite). There is also mention of an Alaksandu, suggested to be Paris Alexander (King Priam's son from the Iliad), a later ruler of the city of Wilusa who established peace between Wilusa and Hatti (see the Alaksandu treaty).
HELENUS - Helenus, High King of Troy, King of the Scythians and King of Epirus, he was born in Troy, Turkey. Only two sons of Priam mentioned by Homer are said to have survived: Helenus and Agathon. Helenus of Andromache had Franco of the Scythians. Helenus, like his twin Cassandra, possessed the power of prophesy. He was captured by the Greeks and disclosed to them how Troy could be captured. This traitorous act may have been the reason why he fled from Troy after its destruction and the inhabitants chose a new ruler. Herodotus also mentions a royal tribe or clan, an elite which dominated the other Scythians. On the other side of the Gerros we have those parts which are called the "Royal" lands and those Scythians who are the bravest and most numerous and who esteem the other Scythians their slaves. The elder brothers then, acknowledging the significance of this thing, delivered the whole of the kingly power to the youngest. From Lixopais, they say, are descended those Scythians who are called the race of the Auchatai; from the middle brother Arpoxais those who are called Catiaroi and Traspians, and from the youngest of them the "Royal" tribe, who are called Paralatai: and the whole together are called, they say, Scolotoi, after the name of their king; but the Hellenes gave them the name of Scythians. Thus the Scythians say they were produced; and from the time of their origin, that is to say from the first king Targitaos, to the passing over of Dareios [the Persian Emperor Darius I] against them, they say that there is a period of a thousand years and no more. This royal clan is also named in other classical sources the "Royal Dahae". The rich burials of Scythian kings in (kurgans) is independent evidence for the existence of this powerful royal elite. Although scholars have traditionally treated the three tribes as geographically distinct, Georges Dumézil interpreted the divine gifts as the symbols of social occupations, illustrating his trifunctional vision of early Indo-European societies: the plough and yoke symbolised the farmers, the axe - the warriors, the bowl - the priests. According to Dumézil, "the fruitless attempts of Arpoxais and Lipoxais, in contrast to the success of Colaxais, may explain why the highest strata was not that of farmers or magicians, but rather that of warriors." Ruled by small numbers of closely-allied élites, Scythians had a reputation for their archers, and many gained employment as mercenaries. Scythian élites had kurgan tombs: high barrows heaped over chamber-tombs of larch-wood - a deciduous conifer that may have had special significance as a tree of life-renewal, for it stands bare in that may have had special significance as a tree of life-renewal, for it stands bare in winter. Burials at Pazyryk in the Altay Mountains have included some spectacularly preserved Scythians of the "Pazyryk culture" - including the Ice Maiden. Scythian women dressed in much the same fashion as men, and at times fought alongside them in battle. A Pazyryk burial found in the 1990s contained the skeletons of a man and a woman, each with weapons, arrowheads, and an axe. In the 1998 NOVA documentary "Ice Mummies", an archaeologist explains that, "The woman was dressed exactly like a man. This shows that certain women, probably young and unmarried, could be warriors, literally Amazons. It didn't offend the principles of nomadic society." Anthropologist Hermann Baumann recorded male-to-female transsexual priestesses among the Scythians as well, pointing to a broad range of gender expression in the culture. As far as we know, the Scythians had no writing system. Until recent archaeological developments, most of our information about them came from the Greeks. The Ziwiye hoard, a treasure of gold and silver metalwork and ivory found near the town of Sakizsouth of Lake Urmia and dated to between 680 and 625 BCE, includes objects with Scythian "animal style" features. One silver dish from this find bears some inscriptions, as yet undeciphered and so possibly representing a form of Scythian writing. Homer called the Scythians"the mare-milkers". Herodotus described them in detail: their costume consisted of padded and quilted leather trousers tucked into boots, and open tunics. They rode with no stirrups or saddles, just saddle-cloths. Herodotus reports that Scythians used cannabis, both to weave their clothing and to cleanse themselves in its smoke (Hist. 4.73-75); archaeology has confirmed the use of cannabis in funeral rituals. The Scythian philosopher Anacharsis visited Athens in the 6th century BCE and became a legendary sage. Herodotus wroteabout an enormous city, Gelonus, in the northern part of Scythia (4.108): "The Budini are a large and powerful nation: they have all deep blue eyes, and bright red hair. There is a city in their territory, called Gelonus, which is surrounded with a lofty wall, thirty furlongs = ca. 5,5 km each way, built entirely of wood. All the houses in the place and all the temples are of the same material. Here are temples built in honour of the Grecian gods, and adorned after the Greek fashion with images, altars, and shrines, all in wood. There is even a festival, held every third year in honour of Bacchus, at which the natives fall into the Bacchic fury. For the fact is that the Geloni were anciently Greeks, who, being driven out of the factories along the coast, fled to the Budini and took up their abode with them. They still speak a language half Greek, half Scythian." (transl. Rawlinson) Herodotus and other classical historians listed quite a number of tribes who lived near the Scythians, and presumably shared the same general milieu and nomadic steppe culture, often called "Scythian culture", even though scholars may have difficulties in determining their exact relationship to the "linguistic Scythians". A partial list of these tribes includes the Agathyrsi, Geloni, Budini, and Neuri. Herodotus presented four different versions of Scythian origins: Firstly (4.7), the Scythians' legend about themselves, which portrays the first Scythian king, Targitaus, as the child of the sky-god and of a daughter of the Dnieper. Targitaus allegedly lived a thousand years before the failed Persian invasion of Scythia, or around 1500 BCE. He had three sons, before whom fell from the sky a set of four golden implements - a plough, a yoke, a cup and a battle-axe. Only the youngest son succeeded in touching the golden implements without them bursting with fire, and this son's descendants, called by Herodotus the "Royal Scythians", continued to guard them. Secondly (4.8), a legend told by the Pontic Greeks featuring Scythes, the first king of the Scythians, as a child of Hercules and a monster.

ADAM AND EVE TO CURRENT TIME
Billions of years ago, God created Ether within the ordered universe, he was also known as Chaos. Diethyl Ether, (C2H6) 20, a primordial deity in Greek mythology, embodies the essence of light and the radiant blue ether of the heavens. God then created Hemera, often referred to as the divine mother and creator Goddess, saying, “let there be light.” Hemera was source, sunlight, heat and the goddess of the daytime. Diethyl Ether is a highly flammable liquid under pressure and an explosive hazard when exposed to heat. From this union a combustible chemical reaction occurred causing the big bang which created all that exists. God also created Archangels, allowing them to possess intellect and power to assist Him. Archangels serve God and carry out His purposes, and are His soldiers on earth.
~ 4.5 billion years ago the creator Goddess Gaia came into being and is often referred to as mother earth. Gaia’s husband was Uranus (sky) who was created by Gaia to be her spouse. From their union, she bore the Titans: Tethys, Oceanus, Coeus, Crius, Hyperion, Creator God Poseidon (God of the sea), Theia, Rhea (Goddess of fertility) , Themis, Mnemosyne, Phoebe, and Cronus (God of time). Gaia and and her consort Archangel Heylel (son of Archangle Michael and Goddess Hemera) were romantically involved and had many children.
~ 4.5 billion years ago - Poseidon (Cronus and Gaia’s son) created Poseidonis, later named the Garden of Eden, still later renamed Atlantis after Atlas. He was father of the Merpeople (Mermaids and Mermen), a sea god, god of earthquakes, storms, horses, mortality, craftsmanship. He wed his cousin Clymene, a Titan Goddess of fame and renown, and the daughter of Oceanus and Tethy, she was the mother of Atlas. Their other sons were: Prometheus, Epimetheus and Menoetius. She then wed the sun God Heylel and had seven daughters and a son named Phaethon. Poseidon’s other sons were Azaes, Gadeiros, Diaprepres, Elasippos, Euaimon, Mestor, Mneseus, Autokhthon, Ampheres, Theseus, Polyphemus, Belus, Agenor, Neleus, Orion, Pelias, Polyphemus, Benthesikyme, Rhodos and Triton. His symbols are the Trident, Fish, Dolphins, Horse and Bull.
~ 3400-2200 BC - Inanna is the ancient Mesopotamian goddess of love, sex, sensuality, fertility, procreation, and war. She later became identified by the Akkadians and Assyrians as the Goddess Ishtar, and further with the Hittite Sauska, the Phoenician Astarte and the Greek Aphrodite, among many others. She is associated with beauty, divine law, and political power. She was known by the Akkadian Empire, Babylonians and Assyrians as Ishtar, but was originally worshiped in Sumer.
~2762 BC - Adam was divine father by way of Uranus and his wife Eve was divine mother by way of Gaia. Adam was incarnate throughout the eons as many well-known entities: Uranus, Ramses II, Osiris, Prince Coh, Akhenaten, Shamshi-Adad V, King Ahab, Mark Antony and many others. Eve was incarnate throughout the eons as Hemera, Gaia, Rhea, Clymene, Queen Moo, Cleopatra, Isis, Nefertiti, Nefertari, Semiramis and many others. They were both fractal’s of the divine father (Uranus) and the divine mother (Gaia).
~2200 BC - Osiris, a great prince of Atlantis wed Isis and became parents of Horus a god in the form of a falcon. Isis, determined to bring her husband back to life, used her magical powers and temporarily revived Osiris. It was during this brief period, she conceived Horus. This miraculous conception has led some people to draw comparisons between the birth of Horus and the virgin birth of Jesus,
~2000 BC - Atargatis is said to be the mermaid who was the original inspiration for all mermaid stories. She was an Assyrian Goddess. She was said to be the goddess of the moon, fertility and water and was worshipped 3000-4000 years ago in ancient Assyria and later all over the Mediterranean.

Some scholars have compared this to the earlier Mesopotamian myth of Oannes, one of the apkallu or seven sages described as fish-men in cuneiform texts. While Oannes was a servant of the water deity Ea, having gained wisdom from the god. Oannes, in Mesopotamian mythology, an amphibious being who taught mankind wisdom. Oannes, as described by the Babylonian priest Berosus, had the form of a fish but with the head of a man under his fish's head and under his fish's tail the feet of a man.

MERPEOPLE
The Merpeople came to Earth because of their deep desire to give to and interact with other lifeforms - and because they were needed. The heart of what many of you fondly remember or sense as the Lemurian way is in truth the Siran dolphin and merpeople way. And yet, that too became jaded over time. About fifty years into the colonization of the Lemurian continent - approximately 136,000 years ago - Pleiadian and Andromedan hierarchies had established a fourth - though sixth-dimensional City of Light inside a 14,000-foot mountain at the exact center of that continent. This peak was very similar in shape to Mt. Fuji, and was the first mystery school to be established on Earth since the long Ice Age.
The last period of significant deglaciation marked the end of the most recent ice age, about 8,000 -17,000 years ago. The Younger Dryas episode in the middle of a period of global warming caused an extremely cold span hit the planet once again. It was a period known as the Younger Dryas event, a time on earth of almost unprecedented violent, long-lasting weather conditions. It reveals that there is more to prehistory than we have previously thought. The Younger Dryas was the last stage of the Pleistocene epoch that spanned from 2,580,000 to 11,700 years BP and it preceded the current, warmer Holocene epoch.
During this time period, the Holocene breached the natural dam that made its eastern border and catastrophically drained eastward, creating the Great Lakes and the Niagara Gorge and Falls, and St. Lawrence River. The huge amount of fresh water that the ‘Niagara’ dumped into the Atlantic Ocean disrupted the thermohaline circulation system and affected the climate. The Younger Dryas [~12,900 - ~11,700 years BP], was a return to glacial conditions which reversed the gradual climatic warming after the Last Glacial Maximum [~27,000 - ~20,000 years BP].
The clearest example of merfolk in Greek mythology was the son of Poseidon and Amphitrite called Triton. Did the Younger Dryas cause mankind to transform into a creature who could live underwater until it was safe to return to land? Mermaid myths began about 3,000 years ago in Assyrian and have artifacts dating back to 8,000 B.C. The Yoruban civilization predates western society by 5,000 years and their gods are arguably the oldest. In their folklore we see a likeness in both Olokun and Poseidon.
One of the most famous sighting was done by Christopher Columbus himself, who wrote in his logbook that he had seen three mermaids, but they were not beautiful, as they had the face of a man. We were introduced to Mermaids in the “Odyssey” written by Homer, who explains how the hero Ulysses had himself tied to the mast of his boat in order to listen the mermaids songs without any danger, although he is not the only one who managed to be uninjured, the Argo ship crew commanded by Jason was also unharmed. They managed to escape the bewitching melodies of the Mermaids thanks to a magical song sung by Orpheus, son of Apollo, who traveled with them.
In roughly 1000 B.C., goddess Atargatis was the first mermaid of record in Assyria, which is present day Syria and Northern Iraq. The first known mention in human history of a human figure with a fish tail is from about 5000 BC, where Babylonian mythology described him as having the body of both a man and a fish. Ea was later known by the Greeks as Oannes, and by some Semitic tribes as Dagon. Nereus, father of the Nereids, was one of the Titans and was the oldest son of Pontus (the Sea) and Gaia (the Earth). He was considered the Old Man of the Sea, and was depicted as a human with a long fishlike tail. His wife Doris was the daughter of Oceanus and Tethys, both of whom were children of Uranus (the Sky) and Gaia. When the Titans were overthrown by Zeus and his siblings, Nereus was replaced as ruler of the seas by Poseidon.
The first stories about mermaids, though, come from thousands of years ago. They’re from ancient Assyria. These stories say that the goddess Atargatis changed herself into a mermaid. In many other cultures, however, mermaids were seen as good creatures. They brought good luck.. These stories say that the goddess Atargatis changed herself into a mermaid. Old stories often blame mermaids for storms and shipwrecks.
ROOT RACES
Root races by Helena Blavatsky - Began about 150 million years ago
1st root race – Polarians (started around the North Pole). Were mind creatures. Ethereal. Could assume shapes of objects or animals.
2nd root race – Hyperboreans.
The first and second root races were etheric and gradually evolved in physical form in the middle of the 3rd root race of Lemuria. Human bodies were enormous in those times but through development of the mental principle, became smaller and more refined.
In the middle of the 3rd root race, a spiritual event occured. The coming of the Lords of Flame (KUMARA). They imparted the spark of mind to humanity and given to only members of the animal kingdom with animal instinctual awareness and no mind. This period is known as individualization.

Billions of years ago, God created Ether within the ordered universe, he was also known as Chaos.

MERPEOPLE
The Merpeople came to Earth because of their deep desire to give to and interact with other lifeforms - and because they were needed. The heart of what many of you fondly remember or sense as the Lemurian way is in truth the Siran dolphin and merpeople way. And yet, that too became jaded over time. About fifty years into the colonization of the Lemurian continent - approximately 136,000 years ago - Pleiadian and Andromedan hierarchies had established a fourth - though sixth-dimensional City of Light inside a 14,000-foot mountain at the exact center of that continent. This peak was very similar in shape to Mt. Fuji, and was the first mystery school to be established on Earth since the long Ice Age.
The last period of significant deglaciation marked the end of the most recent ice age, about 8,000 -17,000 years ago. The Younger Dryas episode in the middle of a period of global warming caused an extremely cold span hit the planet once again. It was a period known as the Younger Dryas event, a time on earth of almost unprecedented violent, long-lasting weather conditions. It reveals that there is more to prehistory than we have previously thought. The Younger Dryas was the last stage of the Pleistocene epoch that spanned from 2,580,000 to 11,700 years BP and it preceded the current, warmer Holocene epoch.
During this time period, the Holocene breached the natural dam that made its eastern border and catastrophically drained eastward, creating the Great Lakes and the Niagara Gorge and Falls, and St. Lawrence River. The huge amount of fresh water that the ‘Niagara’ dumped into the Atlantic Ocean disrupted the thermohaline circulation system and affected the climate. The Younger Dryas [~12,900 - ~11,700 years BP], was a return to glacial conditions which reversed the gradual climatic warming after the Last Glacial Maximum [~27,000 - ~20,000 years BP].
The clearest example of merfolk in Greek mythology was the son of Poseidon and Amphitrite called Triton. Did the Younger Dryas cause mankind to transform into a creature who could live underwater until it was safe to return to land? Mermaid myths began about 3,000 years ago in Assyrian and have artifacts dating back to 8,000 B.C. The Yoruban civilization predates western society by 5,000 years and their gods are arguably the oldest. In their folklore we see a likeness in both Olokun and Poseidon.
One of the most famous sighting was done by Christopher Columbus himself, who wrote in his logbook that he had seen three mermaids, but they were not beautiful, as they had the face of a man. We were introduced to Mermaids in the “Odyssey” written by Homer, who explains how the hero Ulysses had himself tied to the mast of his boat in order to listen the mermaids songs without any danger, although he is not the only one who managed to be uninjured, the Argo ship crew commanded by Jason was also unharmed. They managed to escape the bewitching melodies of the Mermaids thanks to a magical song sung by Orpheus, son of Apollo, who traveled with them.
In roughly 1000 B.C., goddess Atargatis was the first mermaid of record in Assyria, which is present day Syria and Northern Iraq. The first known mention in human history of a human figure with a fish tail is from about 5000 BC, where Babylonian mythology described him as having the body of both a man and a fish. Ea was later known by the Greeks as Oannes, and by some Semitic tribes as Dagon. Nereus, father of the Nereids, was one of the Titans and was the oldest son of Pontus (the Sea) and Gaia (the Earth). He was considered the Old Man of the Sea, and was depicted as a human with a long fishlike tail. His wife Doris was the daughter of Oceanus and Tethys, both of whom were children of Uranus (the Sky) and Gaia. When the Titans were overthrown by Zeus and his siblings, Nereus was replaced as ruler of the seas by Poseidon.
The first stories about mermaids, though, come from thousands of years ago. They’re from ancient Assyria. These stories say that the goddess Atargatis changed herself into a mermaid. In many other cultures, however, mermaids were seen as good creatures. They brought good luck.. These stories say that the goddess Atargatis changed herself into a mermaid. Old stories often blame mermaids for storms and shipwrecks.
ROOT RACES
Root races by Helena Blavatsky - Began about 150 million years ago
1st root race – Polarians (started around the North Pole). Were mind creatures. Ethereal. Could assume shapes of objects or animals.
2nd root race – Hyperboreans.
The first and second root races were etheric and gradually evolved in physical form in the middle of the 3rd root race of Lemuria. Human bodies were enormous in those times but through development of the mental principle, became smaller and more refined.
In the middle of the 3rd root race, a spiritual event occured. The coming of the Lords of Flame (KUMARA). They imparted the spark of mind to humanity and given to only members of the animal kingdom with animal instinctual awareness and no mind. This period is known as individualization. The presence of these 105 kumaras created a great influx of force so powerful that a mighty storm raged over the planet destroying most of the animal kingdom (dinosaurs and humans). The spark of mind was implated in humanity. The vibration had an immediate effect of its presence caused the death of the animal form creating the immediate possibility of the newly vitalized soul bodies for the purpose that new physical bodies were taken for incarnation.
This occurred in the 3rd branch race of the third sub race of the 3rd root race. Lemuria is expressed as 3 3 3. 21.6 million years ago. These souls were hermaphrodite (male and female), thus reproducing themselves without a mate. Over a 3 million year period, the physical body separated. The process was completed by the 5th sub race of Lemuria
