he name Pict first appears in writings by Eumenius in AD297. Picti was used byomans to describe the ‘painted’ people living north of the Antonine Wall in the AD2ntury, in conflicts with Roman governor Septimius Severus.

the time of the famed battle of M ons Graupius , AD83-4, thought to have taken placthe foothills of the Grampian mountains of Bennachie in Aberdeenshire, Caledonia

eartland. In Tacitus’s Agricola–a work written to extol the virtues of his father-in-lawhe Roman general and erstwhile governor of Britain, he refers to CALGACUS as theader of the Caledonians and put into his mouth the famous speech which inanslation is often quoted:

They create a desert and call it Peace“:olitudinem faciunt pacem appellant‘

here were no major cultural or volcanic/geologically-induced breaks in colonizationorthern Britain and no signs of a large influx of people into Pictland from the end of

he Bronze Age to the Middle Ages. So it is thought Picts developed from existingroups.

he older, non-Celtic influence was strongest in north-eastern Scotland (Aberdeenshianffshire and Moray). One theory is that Iron Age Celts may have moved into Scotla

ter 500 BC, bringing culture with them. (3, 7).

owever Pictish history and myth relates how the black-haired peoples came fromcythia (old northern Persia, modern northern Iran) some time between 8thC BC andD2ndC.

he Pictish/Brittonic language was widespread. An analysis of Pictish personal andace names suggests that the people spoke a Brittonic P-Celtic language, related toumbric and Old Welsh and derived from an earlier (non-Celtic) Indo-Europeannguage.

umbric was the P-Celtic language spoken by the Britons of Strathclyde (Drumbrittonunbarton) and the Brigantes of Brigantia–covering most of Yorkshire and parts oforthern English Midlands– were also P-Celtic speakers. It is likely that ‘Lindow Man

he Druid Prince found on Merseyside in 1984 was also a P-Celtic speaker.

he same conclusion has been drawn by many authorities: that prior to Scots’troduction of the Scots-Gaelic language for common usage (early 10thC), all high-bo

nd educated classes spoke Latin or P-Celtic–i.e. Brittonic or Pictish.

is also likely that the great Queen-warrior-leader of the Iceni , Boudicca spoke Latinnd Pictish/Brittonic. Lands of the Iceni stretched from East Anglia on the east througntral Britain to the sacred Druidic island of Mona (modern Anglesey) on the West. Ias Boudicca’s gold-rich kingdom that the Romans plundered and wiped out in AD6ter twenty years of continuous campaigns.

gham inscriptions from the AD8th and 9th century show a strong presence of non-eltic elements.

nglian sources (Bede , AD 673-735 et al) confirm that (non-Celtic) Pictish/Brittonic wapoken until a late date. The Votadini of present day Edinburgh and the Lothians hadheir British stronghold sited on the plateau of Traprain Law, where their massiveoncealed gold/silver hoard was found 20 centuries after they hid it from acquisitiveoman armies in AD60. Their name has gone down in the history books as the famouctish/British tribe celebrated in the heroic poem Gododdin.

umbric, Cornish, and Welsh are all Brittonic Celtic languages–as opposed to Goidelieltic of Ireland and Dalriada.

arly placenames show the influence of P-Celtic or Brittonic Celtic. Later place nameshow the influence of Goidelic Celtic, reflecting the Gaelic of Dalriada and Ireland. Thuggests that there was a period of bilingualism in Scotland when many people spokeoth Pictish and the Gaelic of Dalriada. (3, 6)

he Pictish language is recorded in native sources:

on ogham stones ,n insular script, andn an unknown script.he ogham alphabet orginated in Ireland around AD4thC and spread to Pictland via hurch.

riginally, Pictish ogham alphabet was drawn similiarly to Irish script. As it spreadorth, ogham alphabet became more ornate—in Pictland, at least—displays on stonesve names of contemporary churchmen or peripatetic missionaries (Brandsbutt,

nverurie; Dyce, Aberdeen and Fordoun, Kincardineshire). Most surviving oghamones date from an 8th century overlay.

he unknown script appears only on one stone—at Newton House in Aberdeenshirend may be an imitation of Irish majuscule script or a 5th century Continentalanuscript hand. Some Latin texts also include Pictish names. (3)

rom the time of King Nechtan (706-734) , Latin was used as the language of theducated. It was interchangeable with Pictish/Brittonic. When the Scots of Dalriadaonquered Pictland, the educated class retreated to monastic settlements and LATIN

ontinued to be the language of international dealings, education and trade.

ne of 32 carved bull stones found surrounding the Pictish stronghold ofarvedunum, Burghead, Moray. Four remain.

arly Pictish art suggests the presence of a bull cult at Burghead, Moray, a wolf cult ohe Black Isle alongside the recognized Pictish symbols for astronomical and calendarons.

y contrast, within the (feminine) cow cave at Covesea (pronounced “Cow-sea”) there signs of human sacrifice through drowning or beheading. LINDOW MAN (Druid

rince, above) confirms a cultural royal sacrifice to placate gods, or as a gift for theessing of avoiding racial annihilation (by Romans).

. Ninian, who lived during the 4th century, established the foundation of Candida CAD397 at Whithorn and brought Christianity to some of the southern Picts. St.

olumba attempted to introduce Christianity to the northern Picts at the court of Brid

ac Maelcon (d.c.AD585). Christianity did not become widespread in Pictish areas unechtan’s reign 706-734, although some monasteries existed before then. The monastApplecross in Wester Ross was founded by St. Maelrubha from Bangor c. AD673. A

mall monastery was located on West Burra, Shetland. (3) And recent excavations on ack Isle confirm a large monastic settlement there. Nechtan’s monastery near Darley

Derilei) was located immediately south of the stronghold at Fyvie (present Fyvie Casthe hands of NTS).

he first recorded contact between the Picts and the Romans seems to be in AD43 whking of the Orkneys sent ambassadors to Claudius during his conquest of Britain.

gricola reached the Forth-Clyde line and set up Roman forts between AD82-90.

tolemy, Romano-Greek 2ndC geographer, drew on information of Agricola’sampaigns to describe the Picts—in his day morphing from Caledonii to Picti. He wrothat they were divided into 13 tribes.

TOLEMY’S ORIGINAL PICTISH TRIBEShey included the Orcades , Orkneys. This tribal name was derived from Orcoi or Orci,eaning ‘Boar People’, which is Celtic. Ptolemy’s Ebudae may be their non-Celtic, i.e ctish name. Other tribes included the Caereni, Cornavii , and Epidii–all Celtic names.

he Caereni and the Carnonacae lived in northwestern Scotland. The Cornavii and Smerved in Sutherland the northeastern tip of Scotland across the Pehtlandfjordr (Pentlandctland Firth) from the Orkneys. The Decantae lived in Caithness, north of the Black I

he Caledonii were an especially strong tribe who originally lived along Loch Ness. Eathe Caledonii and north of the River Dee (ABERDEENSHIRE) were the Vacomagi an

he Taexali. The Boresti may have lived south of the Taexali in present Kincardineshirehe ‘Mearns’. South of the River Tay were the Venicones. In the west, the Epidii lived inhe Kintyre Peninsula across the Irish Sea from Ireland. The Creones lived between Sk

nd Loch Linnhe. The Ebudae were the people of the Hebrides.

outh of these groups, but north of the Roman wall (and main presence), were theamnonii , the future Strathclyde Britons. The Damnonii centred on the Clyde and theter city of Glasgow. The Votadini (later Gododdin) lived in the East, centred at Trapraw and the estuary of the Forth. Their lands included the future city of Edinburgh. Tovantae populated Galloway and Dumfries. Selgovae dominated inland hill country.heir name comes from ‘hunters’. Like the Atecotti , this group may be part of theriginal pre-Iron Age people.

he Antonine Wall was built along the Forth-Clyde line in AD142 by Antoninus Piushe Wall was held until AD161, when he died. The northern border then moved soutHadrian’s Wall between the Tyne and Solway. Around 180 of the northern tribes

ossed the Wall and fought the Romans. At the end of the century, they were paid ofy garrisons, not to plunder and raid. By 208, Roman presence in Britain had to appea

Rome for help. Septimius Severus and his sons came and restored Roman order.eptimius Severus died in 211 in York and his son, Caracalla, returned to Rome toecome emperor. Hadrian’s Wall continued to represent the northern border of theoman Empire, the Romans periodically paying off the Picts with silver coins, from thme of Septimius Severus until the fourth century. Pictish habit was to melt downoman coinage to make silver ornaments. (3)

y AD3rd century the Picts were divided into two large tribal groups, called by Romahe Caledonii and the Maeatae.

he Maeatae lived around the Antonine Wall and the Caledonii ruled in the North. Thealedonii , first mentioned in the early AD 1stC; the Maeatae c. AD200, had by the time

oman departure (AD420) become the two predominant Pictish nations north of theWall: later North Pictland and South Pictland.

domnan mentions a people called the Miathi—Ptolemy’s Maeatae.

his division lasted until the 7th century. Bede mentions a northern and southern groPicts. According to later authors, within historic times, there were seven regions

gainst them in 343. An agreement between the Picts and the Romans was broken in 3hen the Picts allied with the Scots of Ireland and attacked. The combined armies ofcts and Scots were defeated by the Romans.

n 364, Ammianus Marcellinus describes the enemies of the British Romans as theicalydones, Verturiones, Scots, Attacotti , and Saxons. The Dicalydones represent thealedonii (split into two) and the Verturiones were by then known as the Southern Picthe Verturiones lived in Fortriu, and Forteviot is clearly formed from this Latinerivation. The name Atecotti or Attacotti means ‘very old ones’. They may represent re-Iron Age Picts.

n 367, the Picts allied with the Scots and the Attacotti and were defeated by Countheodosius. The Picts again fought the Romans from 382-390; defeated by Magnus

Maximus. In 396 to 398, the Picts fought and were defeated by Stilicho. The Pictsvolted again in the 420s. This was the last time that the Picts were allied with the ScIreland against the Roman regime. The Scots then returned to Ireland. And Roman

vacuated and retreated to Rome.

ctish events are largely unrecorded in the 5th and 6th centuries. (3, 7)

ICTISH CHRONICLEridei mac Maelcon is the first historically known Pictish king. He became king arouD550, d.585. His father may have been Maelgwn , King of Gwynedd. Maelgwn wasescended from Cunedda , a leader in the area surrounding the Firth of Forth who thenoved to Wales in the 4th/5th century. Bridei reportedly defeated the Scots and ruled

he northern and southern Picts. He also had control over the King of Orkney, holdinrcadian hostages in exchange for submission to him by the Orcadian king.

. Columba visited his court. Bridei is recorded as dying in battle at Asreth in Circinn84. Power now shifted to the south. In 603, Aethelfrith of Northumbria defeated Aeda

the Scots and ended the wedge driven by Scots into the south. Scots now turned thtention to rich Pictish landholdings in the east– as did Northumbrian kings.orthumbria Angles conquered part of Dalriada and southern Pictland.

he remaining southern lands were ruled by Gartnait and then by Drest. Dresttempted to throw off the Northumbrians but he was defeated. His successor, Brideiac Bili, defeated the army of the Orkneys and then defeated Ecgfrith of the

orthumbrians at the famed battle of Nechtansmere on 21st May 685 in Dunnichen Moss , Perthshire.

ridei reclaimed the land of the Picts from the Northumbrians.

echtan son of Derelei (706-734) ended the struggle with the Northumbrians and turnthe Northumbrians for advice in religious matters. He then sent the advisors back t

idden from view for 12 centuries, the ogham 'fish-shape' inscription on the rear of actish carved stone at St Fergus Chapel, Dyce, Aberdeen

is thought the cleric Fergus– whose foundation at Dyce, Aberdeen holds the Fergusctish stones—negotiated with the Pope on Nechtan’s behalf. After a civil war—laterechtan’s life, his successor Drust on the Pictish throne—the old king abdicated andtired to the Darley monastery at Fyvie, Aberdeenshire—his matrilineal lands.

is successor, Drust, was deposed by Alpin and finally killed in battle in 739. Alpin wturn succeeded by Oengus son of Fergus. Oengus conquered the Scots in Dalriada

nd then allied himself with Wessex and Mercia against the Strathclyde Britons.

he Britons killed Oengus’ brother, Talorcan, in battle. The Britons then defeatedengus’ army. Oengus died in 761. Dalriada defeated the Picts and regained possessiefore 778.

he power of the Picts and the Scots of Dalriada fluctuated until Kenneth mac Alpin,ing of the Scots, conquered the Picts in 843, using Norse attacks on the Pictish Northoast as a cover for his invasion from the south. While the previous rulers had co-ruloth Dalriada and southern Pictland, macAlpin coveted the northern territories andsumed ‘domination’ over Pictland after his battle 843. Scenes of this takeover are

raphically illustrated on the (now enclosed) Sueno’s Stone at Forres , Moray.

efore Kenneth mac Alpin’s takeover, three Scots kings allied themselves with the Pichrough family ties and cross-lineage. The Pictish succession was running short of maarental genes! Some latter day Pictish kings mentioned in the Pictish Chronicle also b

alriadic names.

Dalriadic ruler Constantine, son of Fergus, was also couler of the Picts through his mother’s Derilean lineage where (in Pictland) he held thame Custantin son of Uurguist . His name is commemorated on the famous cross-one at Forteviot. (The original cross-stone has now been removed to Edinburgh—ong with the precious Forteviot arch from the Pictish palace—and a replica is in plan the Forteviot hillside. Custatin’s son, Oengus II, ruled in Pictland where he wasnown by his Pictish name Unuist son of Uurguist. His son Eoganan (Euan) was joint

uler of Picts and Scots until his death in 839. Two sons of the Pictish king Oengus welled in battle against the Vikings in 839. This gave Kenneth mac Alpin the opportuntake over the lands of the Picts. (3)

emale Namesis likely that female Pictish names were derived from matrilineal connections. Th

neage of, e.g. Derilea from Derilei (current Darley in Aberdeenshire). Nechtan of erilei was the powerful 8thC Pictish King who consolidated his nation and establishrst STONE Christian churches.

s one source says, there is a “complete lack of Pictish female names”. (4) The sameuthor states that for naming purposes, it would be appropriate for a Pict to have aeltic name and that many Pictish men did have Celtic names. (5) Thus it may also (lactish times) have been appropriate for a Pictish woman to have a Celtic name.

Male Namesote: When an earlier form of the name is mentioned, that form would have been useound the 6th century and the later form refers to names used around the 8th centurlassical names would have been used by classical authors (4).

November 28, 2012 at 1:50 pm Checked the picture archive at Strathclyde for more of the Pictish letters. Amsatisfied that I have identified the letters H, L, AA, am aware of what the so-called Z-rod symbol represents, the Crescent. The letters TSU, generaly used

composite, and RAAY, three cireles two small and one large with a line throuit, reads Raay. The fist with a curled tail is T or TY, the whale/dolphin isWHAAL, the Bull MNV, the goose TSU, the eagle FVR or the deer THRN, thwolf KHNR. The arch the leter K. Many of the symbols are composite, and thstones are smashed to make reading them difficult.

It appears that no one is interested in the accurate translation, which is aGalactic one. The fan symbol is a Segment of GALAXY,and the Z-rod is in facrepresentation of the Double Headed Serpent, which has to do with travel inGALAXIES!!!

March 3, 2013 at 4:42 pm i would need to see the picture of the stone. Most have been deliberatelydamaged to conceal the science. If one was in a loch, I would suspect it wasdeliberately put there to remain hidden. once it is recoved the information ca

be released.

March 2, 2013 at 7:29 am Raymond—thank you for an inspired comment: there is indeed room for a newapproach to Pictish symbols—sound being the all-important factor that manyacademics miss. Your connection with galactic language is prescient; and now weare in the year of the serpent!Yasir: sorry not to be able to help on your symbols; Pictish designs are found in aextremely limited geographical region; so perhaps you can get local help.

Robert, thank you for reading.

All three: apologies for taking so long to reply; Raymond’s galactic hiccups serveme a generous helping of wirelessness/hibernation during solstice and solar flarehave done the rest—since. Only now getting to communicate!Old school insisted that to try to interpret P.symbols was the short route to insani

but many bright minds are starting to look more lovingly at what was an importa[deliberately suppressed] language.Thank you all for commenting.

March 3, 2013 at 11:22 pm The use of the word “hiccups” would tend suggest my comments areunwelcome, inconvenient and may be ignored. I might wonder, after the delaif there was any need to respond.Suppressed is misleading.Reserved andredacted is more appropriate.

March 3, 2013 at 8:49 pm The difficulty is that the Galctic language is RESTRICTED and concealed in thewriting of the PYTK and MAYA. PYTK is far more advanced than the MAYA andthe Hieroglyphs.

I check the word “Hiccup” and the inference is that my understanding andtranslation is a small problem, easily dismissed.

Said the KINGFISHER to the HUMMINGBIRD,where you you wish to go? ThePROTOKOL note was issued on 1 March 2013 and delived by FAX. I check this isthe year of the snake as understood by the Middle Kingdom That Was. I note ETNis active, but comment is that Etna is always active.

I am aware of the flaring HUMMINGBIRD on 31 August 2012. I am aware of KY MEN and assocated Volcanoes active at north NYPPON, so the Pacific Ring of Firis active.

You are aware HUMMINGBIRD that I can WRITE PYTK in the original and to reit. If locals here are dismissive then RTESTRICTIONS are properly left in place.

I await the local writing in 1880′s with Interest, and whether I should review myRESTRICTION. Alice looked though the looking glass, and the mad hatter wore10/6d, but the HEADPIECE with TWO FEATHERS is likewise weighted 10/6

but I leave the half sovereign at CLOSED POSITION;which means I can REFUSETRANSLATION of the PYTK at this TIME, The FOOTSTOOL weighting is at 6d,bit is in a TRIPLE YYPRAN HEADPIECE.

March 26, 2013 at 10:10 am Further revisal to Newton Stone translation.The serpent at the end is the SYSTEMSYMBOL for the Galaxy GROUP.The stone was deliberately smashed to hide theGalactic name and to make a point of withdrawal by the Galaxy Group. The barcoding is in fact the representation of the UPTURNED DRAGON STICK ,TRIPLEPANEL FOR THE THREE GALAXIES GROUP. They will BLOCK any Galactictravel and communication galaxy to Galaxy until this stone is correctly understooThe DRAGONSTICK is effectively the SWORD in the STONE and it is DRAWN

OUT OF THE STONE,once correctly understood and with the SPECIFIC name ofthe GALAXY. The Galaxy system is MASSIVE.

The DRAGONSTICK upturned represents DEPARTURE AND BREAK OFCONTACT.Correct translation WITH understanding means the GALAXYCONNECTION is REESTABLISHED, even if at present still concealed and restric

The understanding is VERY ADVANCED, and VERY DIFFICULT. Basically thesstones are like computer discs which have to be DECODED and then UNZIPPED

They have time and place markers. Refused translation in the 1860′s to 2010. Thutext is essentially partial UNZIPPING and UNDERSTANDING THE SCIENCE.T

STONES DO TALK!!!

The Science is to do with VOLCANOS ,WEATHER PATTERNS and SPINNING OTHE FOOTSTOOL, 365+1/4 days and with PRECESSON.
