“Run from what’s comfortable. Forget safety. Live where you fear to live. Destroy your reputation. Be notorious. I have tried prudent planning long enough. From now on I’ll be mad.”
Just before the year 1000 a young Viking named Thorvald the Far-farer turned his back on the pagan gods of his fathers to preach the Christian gospel, travelling to Jerusalem, the golden heart of all medieval world maps. A thousand years later Victoria Clark retraces his epic voyage to discover how the dramatic events of […]
Emperor Zero? Fiddle verb (CHEAT) UK informal : to ACT Dishonestly in order to get something for yourself, or to change something dishonestly, especially to your advantage. P.S. Been there. Done that. Seen them. Palatine Hill is amazing!
Along with Mum’s Enid Blyton books that I read voraciously as a child in Nan’s home were many others. Including a book of Grimm’s Fairy Tales and Hans Christian Anderson’s Fairy Tales. Seeing the wiki page for HCA – The Little Mermaid and the image above gave me such a jolt. Is this why I […]
OK. Work this one out (?) What connects Melisende, Queen of Jerusalem with Melusine the witch? Do I detect a FISHY PHONEY ruse to detract the “smart arse” from the truth? Yes. I do. But the why, how, where, when, what, WHO – I’ll leave up to y’all :o) Just how much more obvious and […]
Wkilidepia I’ve been asked to explain what the Outremer states are. I mentioned them in a previous post about the Teutonic Knights. If you look at the link above you’ll get a good answer. Outremer means beyond the seas. It’s also a word that means Crusader States and the Levant. I actually agree with the […]
One country that comes up time and again in my research is Iceland. I haven’t talked that much about it but I’m still very aware of Iceland’s importance in the Hidden History of the World. Few people ever think about this tiny land way up north but it is a vital piece in this huge […]
See quote above! If I jiggle around with the timelines and follow NC’s New Chronology then so very much falls into place. We have Scota the “founder”of Scotland – around 1360 B.C. Maria – 1160-1180 ish A.D. (I pick 1182….the date she disappears from History!) A Greek Prince. The daughter of a Pharaoh. 1190 ish […]
There are many examples that could be used to illustrate this point here but I’ll stick with the 3 that I know most about. Vlad Țepeș . Elizabeth Bathory. Gilles de Rais. All three of these Historical figures have had exactly the same treatment by Mainstream History. They are now known as evil, bloody serial killers with […]
Women don’t stand a chance against them. They hit you up. Charm you into bed and then…2 options for them. If you are penniless and can’t give them anything for the pleasure of their pleasuring you – They Run Away. FAST AS. If you are rich and they know it – They’ll Kill you and […]
I love that phrase. And I know someone (with more Scandinavian DNA than me) who has a far greater knowledge of the Isles than I do! Slàinte mhath, fellow Outlander :o) One day we may get to The Orkneys and the King, Hereafter.
