Old European Culture



Bran Vran

Gaulish chieftains from fourth and third century BC have names whose clear etymology is preserved in Serbian. Breton, Welsh, Irish, Lithuanian and Slavic languages are the only ones which share "vran" as a word for raven and crow, but only Serbian, Croatian, Bosnian and Polish languages use Vran, Vron as a word for black. Slavic languages are the only ones which have preserved the old word Bran meaning to defend, protect.

We can see from the spelling of word for crow in Breton, Welsh, Irish and Serbian (Bran, Vran, Fran, Uran) that B, F, V, W (which later turned to U) are basically interchangeable sounds which depend on accent and dialect.

The name of Gaulish leader Brennus, Brennos could therefore be a personal name derived from a word "bran" meaning to defend: Brannas = bran + nas = defends + us = our defender.

Irish word for chief "branán, braine, braineach" as well as the Welsh word for chief "breenhín" are all derived from "bran" meaning to defend. The main role of a tribal chief was to defend its people. It is the same with Irish Surnames O'Branáin, O'Branagáin, O'Brannie.

Words "bran" meaning to defend and "vran" meaning crow, black are actually related and are both derived from the sound that crows make. The sound that crow makes is something that sounds like craaw, graaw, wraaw, raaw.

I believe that there is a very strong link Between Slavic and Celtic languages and cultures which has been so far overlooked.

Not far from the famous observatory of the sun the Stonehenge... on old maps is found Sorbiodunum. One fortress from the time before the arrival of the Romans ... that bears the name of our people and our nation with the addition of (Celtic / Welsh) - dunum.

The county in which Sorbiodunum is situated, Wiltshire, is home to some of the oldest and most fascinating archaeological sites in the country. Wiltshire is famous for its ancient landscape, which includes Stonehenge, Avebury and Silbury Hill.



The map shows the south of Great Britain, landscape west of London (at the time of the Celts).

Bielowski: "The Poles originate from the Danube from Serbian tribes Triballi and Dacians."

Other Polish scientists state: "the Poles originate from Serbian Illyria, the cradle of Slavic nations" (Critical introduction into history, 1857).

Mount Serbal and Lake Serbonis in Egypt



Mountain 2,070 meters high, and still has the name SERBAL, with which are connected early Christian communities, and traces of the monastery from 4th century AD... It is located in a part of the national park. (South Sinai)

Mount Serbal is located in Saint Catherine city in the south Sinai, sometimes known as Gebel Serbal in texts. At 2070 meters, it is the fifth highest mountain in Egypt. Serbal is part of St. Catherine National Park. Some believe that Serbal is the biblical Mount Sinai.

According to Jewish tradition, on Mount Serbal (Sinai) Moses received the 10 commandments.



Lake Serbonis, which is mentioned by Herodotus and Diodorus of Sicily. Herodotus informs us that this lake was located in the lower Egypt, where he constituted the natural border between Egypt and Syria, and that it was so old that even Zeus threw into it a mythical monster Typhon.

Nino Belov (Ninus Belus), Serb, first ruler of the world, biblical Nimrod

At that time, it was essential that the rulers identify with some deity, and he proclaimed himself the son of God Bacchus... Who was the main god and to whom they offered bulls as sacrifices every 3 years until the Christian church prohibited such ceremonies as a pagan custom.

It's an example also in ancient mythology that all the great heroes are the sons of Gods...
When someone is so declared for a successor god then he represents also his interests...

NINO is always presented as a God Bacchus (the body of a bull and the head of a man with wings) but called BELOV.



For the ancient Serbs BELOV is BELBOG and later for Slavs BELBOG is the same as Bacchus.

Additionally, Ioannis Zanarae argues that Romans called Belbog Bacchus, and the Greeks called him Dionysus which is a combination of two names: Dios/God, and Naissus/Nis (Serbia): the birth place of Bacchus

Genealogy / Are Silesians people German/Germanic? [178]

@Lyzko

First of all, I would like to say that alot of the so-called "official" history has been falsified in order to suit certain people's needs. In this case it is the famous "German school" which (for it's own selfish and personal reasons) proclaimed that Slavic people were some barbarians from the steppes who moved from beyond the Carpathian mountains and settled in Europe.

There is no concrete evidence of any great Slavic migrations especially in the Balkans. It means Slavic people were autochtonuous in the Balkan region.

To disprove this false German claim I will use in this case a Jewish source.

youtube.com/watch?v=ISHT-Tc7IPI

Benjamin Netanyahu the PM of Israel said in this press conference that Serbian-Jewish relations go back thousands of years from the time of the Roman Republic. This is a very interesting statement, because if any people have access to secret historical archives, it is the Jews. I would like to remind you that Roman Republic predates the Roman Empire therefore this proves that German claims are totally false.
