[00:00:01]And right here we have uh brittleles of prehistoric times by James H. Anderson and he says the bass are of middle size compactly built robust and agile of a darker complexion than the Spaniards. So the Spaniards are dark remember. So the bas are even darker. All right. The Bass, the original Bass, their language has a resemblance to the Finnick, as well as to some of the languages of the red men of the Pacific coast and to the GIC in Ireland and Britany. An ice age probably drove himself. Some few probably survived as cave dwellers, but the larger part perished. says here, "The first inhabitants of southern Europe, Northern Africa, Arabia, France, and the British islands were a race of small men who did not average in height more than about four to 5t 4' 5 in. They were of slight build with dark complexion. They were cave dwellers emanation from Leoria, he says. All right, Leoria." So a description of the western islands of Scotland containing a full account of their situation.

[00:01:11]Uh let me see extent so product harbors bay. All right. And it keeps going. So this is from uh M. Uh Martin Martin I believe his name is.

[00:01:22]Yeah. And from 1716. All right. This book is from 1716.

[00:01:27]You can find it on archive.org.

[00:01:29]says the inhabitants of this iso are generally well proportioned and their complexion is for most part black. They are not obliged to art informing their bodies for nature never fails to act her part bountifully to them and perhaps there is no part of the habital globe where so few bodily imperfections are to be seen nor any children that go more early. I have observed several of them walk alone before they were 10 months old. They are bathed all over every morning and evening. Some in cold, some in warm water, but the latter is most commonly used and they wear nothing straight about them. All right, they're talking about inhabitants of Scotland.

[00:02:15]All right, most part black. Then we're talking about the Isil of Aan or the island of Auran. It says the inhabitants of this isol are well proportioned generally brown and some of black complexion. They enjoy a good state of health and have a genius for all Collins or or employee.

[00:02:35]All right. Brown or black complexion and the Isel of Gigay says the inhabitants are all Protestants. All right. Protestants.

[00:02:45]Remember that Protestant. I've been telling tell you guys when I say Protestants cuz a lot of the times it be like oh we had a shipload of Protestants come from Ireland or whatever and we just oh bunch of white people right that's what we're all assuming and that's why I'm trying to help break that spell. The inhabitants are all Protestants and speak the Irish tongue generally there being but a few that speak English. They are grave and res reserved in their conversation. They are accustomed not to bury on Friday. They are fair or brown in complexion and use the same habit diet that is made use of the adjacent continent isos. All right.

[00:03:30]It says about a leak further of the south. All right. So this is about the island of Judah. It almost sounds like the island of Judah. Just replace the R with a D. Judah. Judah. Says the natives here are very well proportioned being generally black of complexion and free from bodily imperfections. They speak the Irish language and wear the plaid the plaid bonnet as other islanders. All right. The plat. All right. All right.

[00:04:02]And what does it say here? Family names from the Irish, Anglo-Saxon, Anglo Norman, and Scotch considered in relations to their ethmology with brief remarks of the history and languages peoples to whom we are indeped for their origin by Thomas G. Chantry. This is from 1892. Now it says here diver originally duber from dub which means black dub black like Dublin. The city of Dublin is the city of black. Dub man a dark complexion man. Dub dur dub a dark complexion man. Degan.

[00:04:47]All right. And it says here defin black lin marry swamp just like more also means swamp a wasteland that's another definition for more just like dub also means a march because you know what a lot of these dark-kinned people were living along marshes along and it was becoming associated to them as well. So the word meant a lot more than just meaning a wasteland or marsh. All right.

[00:05:16]So, dub black lin mar said dub duffy.

[00:05:20]Duffy is also like duff duff dub pronounced dubbed or dupe or black. Dub black an individual a black person a black dub.

[00:05:31]All right.

[00:05:34]Dal or douglas. All right. Douglas, right?

[00:05:38]Douglas from black dark glass. Green gray dark green dark gray. Dug. So Douglas means black too. Douglas duga dugal from dub black g stranger a black stranger dug from the same roots. All right. All right. And this is the journal of the anthropological institute of Great Britain in Ireland uh volume 17 from 1888.

[00:06:06]Long before the Roman conquest, the intrusive Aryan Kelt had been intermaring with the older inhabitants of the country who doubtless belong to more than one race. The result being that the so-called Celtic uh race is an amalgamation all right of races dering physiologically but dominated by a common moral and intellectual character.

[00:06:31]the consequence of subjection for a long series of generations to the same conditions of life. It has become a common place of ethnology that the so-called Celtic race includes not only the fair complexion Aryan Kelt but also the black Kelt the black Kelt or Iberian with the dark skin, black hair and eyes and small limbs. The subject however is much more complex than this simple division would imply. We have seen that under the red kelt are included two distinct varieties. The black kelt is equally irreducible to the single type while the fact that two types of red and black recur in the same family. My own for example not only indicates their long continued intermixure but suggests the existence of intermediate varieties.

[00:07:20]All right but they're letting you know in this book that the kelts also were black. These selts, right? These Kelts, black Kelts. In my address to the archaeological institute of Salisbury, I have referred to the peculiarities of this district as an ancient ethnical frontier and to the existence of a small dark race of people amongst the peasantry at a present time. So the Mediterranean type of Italy and Spain, bralik, short, dark with black eyes, dark hair. This he thinks is Iberic and ultimately Berber. The Savonic type braalic with a short face, short stumpy nose and little beard. This is the turo tartar or ugric type. So this type belong the lower classes of Bavaria in southern Germany who are breasty phallic and dark while the upper classes are dosify tall and fair. The Kelts are largely mixed. Some classes are tall and redhaired, others short and dark. The Iranians and Indians originate tall and fair but much altered by climatic influence.

[00:08:24]And over here it says to make a list the black builders of Stonehenge. All right.

[00:08:29]By Elmer von Flesher.

[00:08:33]Just wanted to read this.

[00:08:36]Says in Scandinavia at least there is some evidence that the human prototypes of the elves were the short dark magic working uncanny labs who were conquered and slaved by the Gothic invaders of Scandinavia.

[00:08:49]The Fborgs, Tuata, Dan, the Ndians, etc. in Irish mythology were pygmies. The first inhabitants of Greenland in the Arctic circle were the Tua. They are mentioned in Viking saga such as the Growlandinga saga and the Eldrich saga.

[00:09:04]Eric the Red and found the Tua when he arrived in Greenland. They also inhabited northern Canada in parts of the New Foundland Massachusetts. The Norsemen called them scrailings. All the early commenters described them as being black and of short stature. See for example legal grand age cleric I the second the mystery of the artic and Ivanos African presence in early Europe.

[00:09:26]David Mcichi has written in the pendants be of work the testimony of the tradition that the scrailings were ever situated where pygmies is evident from the testimony of Olus Magnus in the accounts of the 11th century northmen fully corroborate this.

[00:09:43]All right and then this is the journal of the anthropological institute of great brain in Ireland. uh volume nine.

[00:09:50]All right. And it says here that the nick gnaks or gitanos, the gitanos or the people from the gay area, gypsies who are commonly called in France Bohemians. The former are peaceable and molded in the same civilization as the Basque. The latter, for the most part, lead a nomadic life and are repelled by the inhabitants as thieves in Bagabond, though some lead quite an unoffensive one. Like some I saw dwelling at Cyborn, a suburb of St. Gene, the loose. These are mostly fishermen. They're called cat scarro. A corruption Dr. Gilbert considers a cat's agot. He regards them as African origin. Some of them were very dark and handsome, but not so striking as our gypsies. So, let's go to the next. Right. It says, "The races of Europe by Carlton Stevens Coon." He's a Yeah, he's a He's a literal literally he's a All right.

[00:10:44]Carlton Stevens the races of Europe, assistant professor of anthropology where in Harvard University.

[00:10:53]Harvard University.

[00:10:55]All right. That the Hanss came in great numbers cannot be questioned. And that they introduced a completely alien racial type onto European soil is vividly attested by the accounts of numerous contemporary historians among whom may mention Jordanis, Sidonis, Apollinaris, and Prriscus. These authors unanimously describe the Huns as being short, broad shoulder, light, thick head, Swarty. All right. Swarty. The Huns are swarty, flatnosed, slity, nearly beerless, and bandandylegged. The Avers are described by some authors as being identical with the Huns, but by mo others as being less horrible of aspic.

[00:11:32]According to the bisonantine wit jordanis the avers defeated the Iranian speaking islands who were descendant of the surmaceians right remember them by frightening them with their faces and not my valor all right now I'm reading from this book it's called the proceedings of the royal Irish academy second volume two light literature and antiques Dublin this is published from the uh years 1879 1888 it says here I'm on page 47 of this book bring you right here. It says now at two primitive Irish races which he designates as furbulk and selt.

[00:12:11]He has given typical figures. One of these the furbbo cranium will in all probability correspond with the remarkable doli cohalic skull that I have described.

[00:12:23]These long-headed black vish dark-haired swarty aboriginals. Swarty blackhaired black visswarty swarty aboriginals possess skulls that are principally characterized by their extreme length from before backwards or what is technically termed the antero diameter and the flatness of their sides. All right. All right. Again, swarty aboriginals. He says, "In addition, now we find similar conditions of heads still existing among the modern inhabitants of this country, particularly beyond the Shannon, where the darker furb race, a darker, even a darker race than these aboriginals may still be traced as distinct from the more global headed, lighteyed, fair-haired Celtic people who live to the northeast of that river." I'm on page 53 of this book now and I go down here to this paragraph and it says the most probable explanation appears to be that it was the result of one of those piratical descents or invasions of the Irish coast made by robber Vikings Dars or Black Danes. Black Danes again black dane Danish black Normen black Vikings black Danes. Black Vikings, the six kings, Vikings bi six kings, the six Danish kings, Danites, and their ferocious allies from the islands of Scotland, which were so common in the 9th and 10th centuries. These invasions took place subsequent to and were altogether different from the Scandinavian settlements in Ireland of Lucklands or Assure Gentiles who are described in the chronicles of the time by their distinctive feature of being a white or fair-haired uh race. All right.

[00:14:14]So different from the black Danes. All right. This is the book, The Scottish Nation or The Surnames, Families, Literature, Honors, and Biographical History of the People of Scotland by William Anderson. This is volume 2, 1863.

[00:14:31]I'm on page 71 of this book. And it says here, Dove, a surname adopted from the Celtic, in which language the word means black. All right, Dove means black.

[00:14:44]Sibald in his history of F says that as Niger and Rufus were names of families amongst the Romans from the color and complexion of men. So it seems Dove was from the Swarty and black color of those of the tribe or clan of McDuff.

[00:15:03]All right. Swarty black tribes. MCDuff Duff. I'm going to read from this book.

[00:15:11]is called phases of Irish history by Aayoen McNeel, professor of ancient Irish history in the National University of Ireland from 1920.

[00:15:26]Page 62, Preeltic Inhabitants of Ireland says, "So far as the Iberian theory is not mere vacuum filling, it appears to rest on a single passage of tacitus. He is describing the silly a British people whose territory was in the south of Wales and who offered a very fierce resistance to the Romans. The swarty complexion of the selers again the swarty complexion of the silly he says the prevalence of curly hair among them curly hair and their position over against Spain argue that the ancient Iberians must have crossed over from Spain and occupied the territory. We have often heard the occurrence of similar physical traits in the west of Ireland ascribed to a more recent Spanish mixture. In 1851, a new variety of Norsemen arrives on the Irish coast.

[00:16:21]They are called the black heathens, the black foreigners, the black llanox. In contradiction to the fair heathens, fair foreigners or fair lanox who had been here before them. The Welsh chronicle, the annals Cambria makes it fairly clear that these black heathens were the Danes. They came in hostility to the Norwegians with whom they fought fierce battles. And we have already seen that for a number of years the Danes held the chief power in the Hebis.

[00:16:52]The place of the Welsh in the history of Britain by then professor Boyd Dawkins honor fellow of the Jesus College Oxford reprinted by the Manchester examiner.

[00:17:03]This is from 1889.

[00:17:05]It says here the place of the Welch in the history of Britain. Again, ancestry of the small dark Welsh. The small dark Welsh. So it says here, part two, the small dark Welsh. The Welsh, as their name implies, are simply the inhabitants of Britain, strangers to the English invaders. It would be absurd to expect that the rude warriors who pushed the inhabitants of Roman Britain before them to the west into Wales, Kumbria and the West Wales, Devon and Cornwwell would have drawn any subtoethnological distinctions to the destroyers of the Roman Empire. Their foes in Britain were Brit Brit Welsh, Brit Welsh and in Gal Welsh under which heads were included without any distinction the races which they conquered. It is clear, however, from the pages of Caesar and Tacitus that at the time of the Roman conquest, there were at least two distinct peoples in Britain. The tall, fair-haired, blue-eyed selt, identical with the Gaelic tribes and the dark complexioned wavyhaired south Welshman silly. All right. Again, two types of people.

[00:18:07]All right. Two types of Welch people.

[00:18:13]He named fair-haired blue-eyed.

[00:18:16]That doesn't mean pale. Fair-haired light blueeyed selt. That doesn't mean they were white palekin white people identical with the ga tribes. And the dark complexioned wavyhaired wavyhaired selfman. So dark complexion.

[00:18:34]They actually talk about skin here. They didn't say skin anything here. Pay attention to that. That's all right. So wavy-haired, soft Welshmen, the silly as they were called, who are compared by Tacitus to the Ietti of Spain. This comparison is now amply justified by a visit to most Welsh towns on a market day, say Denbi or St. Asov, where the small dark Welsh man is to be seen identical in everything but dressed and speech with the small dark basque of the western pyinis, both French and Spanish.

[00:19:05]All right, he just told you straight up that all these people are dark, even though they're different people. said Dark Welshman and the Dark Basque. We need not however go so far as the Pyrenees to find people identical with the small dark Welch, the small dark Irish again. The small dark Irish cuz we're going to get into the Irish. The small dark Irish of the southwest of Ireland. The small dark highlander of Scotland. All right. The Highlander who was the high the stewards were in the Highlanders and the dark inhabitants of Devon and Cornwall are physically of the same race. The recent researchers of Bedto prove also that the small dark York sharan and Derby Sherman are of the same small dark stock. All right. All these dark sworthy dark so-called black Europeans.

[00:19:58]These are not African. Nobody's talking about Africans though. You got to prove that Iberians all didn't just come from Africa.

[00:20:08]Continuing says, "On the continent, we find the same race still in Britany and in various districts in the valley of the Lori, as it is clearly proved by Dr. Broca's maps until at last we come to the Basque of the Pyrenees and the small dark population of Spain." Spain. All right. Population of Spain. Spaniards.

[00:20:28]Spanish concistador Spain. There is no longer any room for doubt that the small dark Welshman is a fragment of a people formerly widely extended over Europe but now broken up into ethnological islands by subsequent invasions. All right. What that what what what was it like formerly as he's letting you know again that it was these dark Welshmen were all over Europe. They were all over Europe. this dark population all over Europe and then they got basically put into small areas because of invasions image. All right, this is the book of Iran volume second by WM McKenzie history and folklore the Iran society of Glasgow Hugh Hopkins. Now Iran I believe is one of the ISIS in the Scotland and it says here the inhabitants of this is Iran are well proportioned generally brown generally brown and some of a black complexion. By that time of course other streams had passed into the current but isolated and sharply defined centers are conservative of the stock.

[00:21:32]The very conditions operated towards uniformity. All right. what brown generally brown and some of what black complexion in the same book down here it's talking about the Danes again it says later a distinction appears between fingal white strangers or Norse Norsemen and duck gal or black strangers the Danes black strangers the Danes So we're all the way in uh page 58 of this book and it says here we now turn to consider the planting of some left-hand stewards in Iran they're going to talk one about one of these stewards All right. Down here on the next page it says which was in existence at least by 1385 and among the perquisites of the office this John Stewart. All right this John Stewart I remember the stewards who the stewards are darkkinned people the dark complexion or black had corials in Iran. John the Stewart the black or black dark complexion or black dark complexion or black. All right.

[00:22:35]John Stewart. This is in Scotland in the Isel of Iran. All right. And this is another version of the book of Iran edited by JA Falour. All right. It says archaeology is a little different than the other one. I'm on page 96 of this book. And it says down here, from the characters of the skeletons, we may thus gather that our chamber builders were short people with relatively large long heads, high narrow faces, and well arched foreheads. In complexion, they were probably brunette. All right, brunette. They're not talking about hair. They're talking about complexion. As you can see, they're distinguishing dark hair. And when they're talking about complexion, brunette. So, brunette, dark brown, brown, brown complexion. They were certainly the same people or a branch of the same people who built the so-called long barrels. I'm on page 131 and they're talking about Bronze Age people down here. says, "In stature, these new people do not appear to have greatly exceeded the earlier Iberian settlers.

[00:23:39]And in complexion, they were probably dark like them. Dark just like the Iberians. Dark Morans Moors, right? Dark complexion. All right. So, I'm going to read from this book now. It's called Early Man in Britain and his place in the Tertiary period by W. Boyd Dawkins.

[00:24:00]And these are his titles." says, "Curator of the Manchester Museum and professor of geology and paleontology in Owens College, Manchester." All right, this is from 1880.

[00:24:12]Page 315 of this book, it says here, "The Baskque of the present day are might be expected from the many invasions they have undergone by no means uniform. But the researchers of Dr. Broca proved that the real Basque stock was small in stature, dark in complexion with black hair and eyes and with a long head. On page 316, it says here regarding some skulls they're finding there in the caves, I believe in France and Spain. Uh their foreheads are high, broad, and expanded and even flattened. Often flattened, they say. It says human remains of this kind are met with in caves and tombs in Belgium, France and Spain. Under conditions which show that the tall race occupied those regions in the Neolithic age and the occurrence of the two forms of skull with all the intermediate varieties in chambered tombs and seul caves reveals the fact that the tall invader and the small dark inhabitant the small dark inhabitant of France dwelt side by side in the same area. On page 323, the author says, "In my belief, the Iberians of France and Spain, the Celers of Wales." All right, we're going to know who they are, what they look like later on. The Legur of Southern Gal and Northern Italy, and the small dark Atruscans. All right. All these people are to be looked upon as ethnological islands isolated by successive invasions. Pointing out that if we could go deep enough in past time, we should find that the whole of Europe was inhabited solely by a swarty non-aran population. Swarty swarty non-aran population.

[00:26:04]All right. What? The whole of Europe in the past time. If we go deep enough in the past time. All right. This professor is letting you know, we would see that the whole of Europe was inhabited solely by Swarti. Swarty meaning dark-skinned so-called black non-aran population.

[00:26:27]So are you saying all these swarty population just disappeared, went extinct or ended up in Africa by the colonial times? No, they came too as indentured servants and colonists and concisadors. They were still in Europe.

[00:26:47]On page 330, it says, "The strong resemblance borne by the small dark selers to the Iberians was remarked, as we have already noticed, by Tacitus. At the present day, his observation applies equally, to the small, Swarty Welshman with long head and Iberian physique. The broad-headed dark Welshman is identical with the broad-headed dark Frenchman and the Welsh people may be defined ethnologically as principally Celtic and Iberian. Every intermediate variety between the two extremes being represented, the Celers no longer form a compact ethnological island, but are scattered and dispersed and mingled with other races. A little further down, it says in Scotland, the small dark Highlander. All right, Scotland, the Dark Highlanders. We're going to talk about who these people turned out to be later on in history. The Scottish Highlanders.

[00:27:48]All right, we're going to see that the Steuart line were basically Scottish Highlanders. And they were also what?

[00:27:54]Dark as it says here in Scotland, the small dark highlander. And in Ireland, the black selts, the black selts to the west of the Shannon still preserve the Iberian characteristics and more or less purity cross with Celtic, Danish, Norse, and English Blood full
