The Light of The Wihtwara

CLIMATE CRISIS (THEN AND NOW.)

THE DAY BRITAIN DROWNED (TIME TEAM PRODUCTION)

Misinformation about our his-story needs to be straightened out before a clearer picture is seen and honoured.

Our ancestors, the Suevii (the confederacy of seven tribes) who lived in the Cimbric peninsular  named after the tribe Cimbri, never called themselves "Jutes" or their land Jutland! that was penned by the monks with their pens in hand!

It is now proven that the Wihtwara, Meonwara, and Cantwara migrated to the Southern shores. First Friesland then the South coast of Britain in early Neolithic times, were settled in Wihtland,  the Meon valley, and Kent long before the Roman incursions. They are indigenous peoples who migrated from the Cimbric peninsular and settled briefly in Friesland because natural disasters forced them to move from what was a solid continental shelf called Doggerland.

 "As early as the  Neolithic era, there is now DNA evidence that the migrations from the Cimbric peninsula, (named after the tribe that lived at its point), including the confederacy of seven tribes who worshiped the Earth Mother, settled along south coast, Isle of Wight and up the eastern coast of Britain."

 

  Steven Oppenheimer writes in his seminal book, The Origins of the British, (Were the Saxons here before the Romans left.  pg 382.) :-

"In the last three chapters I have discussed genetic, linguistic, literary, and archaeological evidence for a foreign, probably German-speaking presence in Britain from before the fifth century C.E., and even before the Roman invasion. The genetic evidence points towards north-west European influence on the east and south coasts of Britain, going back to the Neolithic, and a Scandinavian influence, affecting the north-east of Britain in particular. I have cited evidence for a deeper division between the first Old English dialects with a stronger Norse influence in the north. I have suggested that the colonization of Anglian and Saxon parts of England had complex but different timescales and arose from several continental sources at different times."

   He also writes in the 'Origins of the British' (Were the Saxons in England before the Romans left'. pg 358.):-

"Bede's text reports that in Roman Britain of the third century there was Germanic ascendancy as well as 'chronic Germanic infestation' in southern England."

Archaeology has advanced to DNA profiling showing a much more sophisticated and land- settled peoples even to the Mesolithic times. It has also been discovered spiritual atunement and understanding was much more prevalent and of a deep nature.

The climatic devastation of the Tsunami and the Sworregga slide 6,200 BC which totally submerged the Doggerland and made Britain  an island, changing the land mass of Europe  forever remains in the minds, (the collective memory) of our ancestors who lost many and felt powerless against the might of the sea, creating Gods of the sea to placate and building the Norse legendary Ragnarok (the ending of the world) to remember the unnatural and violent times.

The origin of Ragnarok  

In Norse mythology, Ragnarök (also Ragnarok; /ˈræɡnərɒk/ ^ⓘ RAG-nə-rok or /ˈrɑːɡ-/ RAHG-;^[2][3][4] Old Norse: Ragnarǫk [ˈrɑɣnɑˌrɒk]) is a foretold series of impending events, including a great battle in which numerous great Norse mythological figures will perish (including the gods Odin, Thor, Týr, Freyr, Heimdall, and Loki);^[5] it will entail a catastrophic series of natural disasters, including the burning of the world, and culminate in the submersion of the world underwater. After these events, the world will rise again, cleansed and fertile, the surviving and returning gods will meet, and the world will be repopulated by two human survivors, Líf and Lífþrasir. Ragnarök is an important event in Norse mythology and has been the subject of scholarly discourse and theory in the history of Germanic studies.

The north portal of the 12th-century Urnes stave church has been interpreted as containing depictions of snakes and dragons that represent Ragnarök.^[1]

The correlation of the climatic devastation then, and the worsening climate change now is mind-boggling and very relevant to our appreciation of our ancestors, the Wihtwara, the wisdom they have passed down, and how this Solar Eclipse now, resonates with us as we honour them in the Wihtwara Sanctuary, at the King's barrow. 

We will pray.
