Milesians - News, Updates, Images & Quotes

The Milesian colony reached Ireland from Spain, but they were not Spanish. They were an eastern people who had tarried in that country on their way westward, seeking, they said, an island promised to the posterity of their ancestor Gadelius...The sons of Milesius, Gadelius' descendants, who sailed from Spain to Ireland, were Heber the Fair, Amergin, Colpa, Heber the Brown, Ir, and Eremon. Their descendants ruled Ireland for one thousand years, the dynasty being established by Niall (Niul), who ruled at Tara from 310 to 405

In the time of Moses there was a certain king of one of the kingdoms of Greece, called Neolas. He had a son who was good looking but mentally unstable, Gaythelos [Mile] by name. Since he had not been permitted to hold any position of power in the kingdom he was provoked to anger, and with the support of a large number of friends he inflicted many disasters on his father's kingdom. He greatly outraged both his father and the inhabitants (of the country) with his violent behavior. So he was driven out of his native land and sailed off to Egypt; and there, since he was outstandingly brave and daring and of royal descent, he was united in marriage with Scota the daughter of Pharaoh Chencres [Akhenaten]

— Chronicle of the Scots; quoted by Michael Tsarion view

We are born from the children of Mile, of Spain. After the building of the tower of Nimrod and the confounding of languages, we went to Egypt on the invitation of the Pharaoh, kind of Egypt. Nel, son of Fenius and Goedel Glas were our chiefs when we were in the South. That is why we were called Fene, from Fenius, and Gaels from Goedel Glas...When we were in Egypt, Scota, daughter of Pharaoh the king, was given as wife to Nel, son of Fenius. That is why she is our ancestor and why we are called Scots from her. The night when the children of Israel escaped from Egypt and crossed the Red Sea dry-footed with Moses, son of Amram, the leader of God's people, and when Pharaoh and his army were drowned in the sea after keeping the Hebrews in captivity, our ancestors did not go with the Egyptians in pursuit of God's people and therefore feared Pharaoh's anger. They feared lest the Egyptians reduce them to slavery as they had previously done the children of Israel. So they fled one night on Pharaoh's vessels across the shallow Red Sea to the boundless ocean around the North West of the world. They passed the Caucasian Mountains, Scythia, and India, crossed the Caspian Sea which lies there, crossed the Palus Maeotis and arrived in Europe; from the South East Mediterranean to the North West, right of Africa, they passed the columns of Hercules on their way to Spain and thence to this island...It was Ith, son of Breogan

We believe the Milesians-Scythians were the belligerent Hyksos Kings of Upper Egypt.

There is no doubt in our minds, given the accounts, that Ith, Ir, Mile, Donn, and Heber, namely the "Milesians," were blood-related to the Egyptian Cult of Aton. It is these demagogues who sought to raise their own thrones upon those of the Druids, in a mineral wealthy, strategically well-placed, climatically temperate island known to them from their own childhoods as the "Fortunate Lands" in the West, beyond the "Pillars of the Giants" (The Giant's Causeway, County Antrim, Northern Ireland).

Keating assures his readers that "the Milesians, from the time they first conquered Ireland, down to the reign of Ollamh Fodhla, made use of no other arms of distinction in their banners than a serpent twisted round a rod, after the example of their Gadelian ancestors"

— James Bonwick; Irish Druids and Old Irish Religions (quoted by Michael Tsarion) view

Despite the best efforts of clerics and historians it is only the last group of invaders - the Milesians - who can positively be shown to have come to Ireland from the East for the first time. The story of the visitation of the Milesians is of central importance to our work. We will explore it in greater detail in another chapter. What interests us is that these Milesians, the descendants of Celts from Scythia, have been linked with the Israelites whose exodus from Egypt occurred after the fall of Akhenaton around 1300 BC. Historians date the Milesian invasion of Ireland to approximately 1000 BC, but we believe it to have occurred at a few hundred years earlier. This is because a daughter of Akhenaton, named Scota, is believed to have accompanied the Milesians on their journey to Ireland. Her real name was Meritaten and she (or a namesake daughter) is buried in Country Kerry. It is from the time of the Milesian invasion from the Eastern lands that Ireland's so-called "Historical Cycle" begins. According to records and accounts the Milesians regarded their predecessors, the Tuatha De Danann, as nothing less than gods.
