From the Bhagavad Gita“Arjuna says to his charioteer, ‘Krishna, my limbs sink, my mouth is parched, my body trembles, the hair bristles on my flesh stand on end. The magic blow slips from my hand, my skin burns, I cannot stand still, my mind whirls. I see omens of chaos, Krishna; I see no good in killing my kinsmen in battle.
‘O Krishna, I have no desire for victory or kingdom or pleasures. What use is a kingdom, or pleasure or life itself if those for whose sake we desire these things are engaging in this battle?
‘They are teachers, fathers, sons, grandfathers, uncles, grandsons, fathers and other men of our family. I do not want to kill them even if I am killed. Krishna, I do not want to kill them even for kingship of the three worlds. How much less for the earth alone?
‘What joy is there for us in killing Dhritarashtra’s sons? Evil will haunt us if we kill them even though they are evil. How can we gain happiness if we kill members of our own family? Greed may distort their reason, blind them to the sin they commit in ruining the family and betraying friends. But we see this evil. How can we ignore the wisdom of turning from this evil that would destroy the family?
‘When a family is ruined, ancient traditions perish. With them are lost spiritual foundations of life and family loses its sense of unity.
‘Where there is no sense of unity chaos overwhelms the family. In chaos, women of the family are corrupted and when women are corrupted the intermixture of caste is the inevitable result. The intermixture drags the family and its violators to hell; the spirit of the ancestors fall, deprived of the offerings rice and water. Disorder in the family creates disorder in society.
‘Social chaos is hell for the family. It disrupts the process of spiritual evolution begun by ancestors. It is said that those whose family dharma is destroyed their place is in hell. Out of the greed for pleasures of a kingdom we are prepared to kill our family members. It would be better if my cousins kill me in battle, unarmed and unresisting.’
Overwhelmed with sorrow Arjuna lays down his bow and arrows. He slumps into his chariot in the middle of the battlefield, his mind overwhelmed with grief.â€
From the Kolbrin (book and paragraph references?)“I see no gladness in victory, if victory be granted. I crave no kingdom that I may rule over other men. What would be its pleasures to one such as I? For what do men slay one another? Which man seeks spoil and its pleasure and which man the joys of life? Against us stand men of living flesh and blood, men who have mothers and wives, men who have children, men who are good, even if those who lead them are evil. These good men I have no wish to slay, better would it be were I to be slain myself. Not a man will I slay with these hands, not even for the kingdom of the three spheres would I do it, much less an earthly kingdom. Were those who stand against us all men of evil, it would perhaps be a good deed to slay them; but in the clash of war the good slay the good and the evil ones live safely behind the shields.
“Can we slay men made in our own likeness, brother beings? What peace shall we henceforth enjoy in our hearts? Will not the memory make our hearts heavy, so that life becomes an unbearable burden? Even if there are others among these great war hosts who are so overcome with greed for spoil that they see no evil in the slaying of men, shall we not withhold our blows from this awful deed of blood?
“O doom of darkness, O day of sorrows, what evil has moved the hearts of rulers that men be slain in thousands for the gain of treasure and the rule of an earthly kingdom? What do we here on this field of blood, we who are men of peace and goodwill? Better by far that I stood unarmed, my breast bared, unresisting, and let them slay me, that I might lay in my own innocent blood.â€

From Exodus 12: 21–23: ‘Then Moses called for all the elders of Israel, and said unto them, Draw out and take you a lamb according to your families, and kill the Passover.
‘And ye shall take a bunch of hyssop, and dip it in the blood that is in the basin, and strike the lintel and the two side posts with the blood that is in the basin; and none of you shall go out at the door of his house until the morning.
‘For the LORD will pass through to smite the Egyptians; and when he seeth the blood upon the lintel, and on the two side posts, the LORD will pass over the door, and will not suffer the destroyer to come in unto your houses to smite you.’
Compare with the many references to the Destroyer in the Kolbrin.

From The Lost Continent of Mu, James Churchward, 1931‘Lieutenant Gushing lived among the Hopi Indians for a long time while he translated what have been called the Zuni Myths, which are myths only because the people into whose hands they have passed have failed to understand them. These Pueblo traditions have been handed down orally from father to son for thousands of years...
‘For example, a Zuni tradition says, “Once the earth was covered with water, no land appeared anywhere.â€...
‘Another Zuni tradition says: “Just before man appeared upon the earth, the ground was so soft and watery man could not have walked upon it, his feet would sink into the grounds, therefore he could not live upon it.â€...
From the Kolbrin, Manuscripts 1:‘Men talk of the land of Oben, from whence they came...
‘There were mighty men in those days, and of their land the First Book speaks thus: Their dwelling places were set in the swamplands from whence no mountains rose, in the land of many waters slow-flowing to the sea. In the shallow lakelands, among the mud, out beyond the Great Plain of Reeds. At the place of many flowers bedecking plant and tree. Where trees grew beards and had branches like ropes, which bound them together, for the ground would not support them.’
Jack Churchward’s Llasa records in The Lost Continent of Mu, which he claimed were ancient records he found in Tibetan monasteries and translated, tell of a land very similar to the land of Oben, which appears to have preceded the civilisation of Atlantis.

From The Lost Continent of Mu:‘The ancient Zunis, thousands upon thousands of years ago, had a perfect knowledge of the great reptilian monstrosities that frequented the earth from the Carboniferous Age down to the end of the Cretaceous Period. The traditions say:
“They were monsters and animals of prey; they were provided with claws and terrible teeth. A mountain lion is but a mole in comparison to them. Then Those Above said to these animals: ‘Ye shall all be changed into stone, that ye be not evil to men, but that ye may be a great good to them. Thus have we changed ye into everlasting stone.
“Thus was the surface of the earth hardened and many of all sorts of beasts turned into stone.â€â€™
From the Kolbrin, Gleanings 3:In olden times there were spawned great monsters and beasts in fearful form, with frightful gnashing teeth and long ripping claws; an elephant was but a cat in comparison with them. Then, because of heavenly rebellion and turmoil, and the terror overwhelming the hearts of men, The Great One hardened the face of the land, which had become unstable, and the beasts were changed to stone.

From The Lament/Admonitions of Ipuwer:After discovering 23 similarities between Ipuwer and the Kolbrin – and occasionally Exodus too, I stopped counting. Here are just a few:
FIRE RISING UP HIGH IN THE SKY
From the Kolbrin, Manuscripts‘Fire mounted up on high and its burning left with the enemies of Egypt. It rose up from the ground as a fountain and hung as a curtain in the sky.’
From Lament of Ipuwer‘Behold, the fire has gone up on high, and its burning goes forth against the enemies of the land.’
Exodus 13, verses 21–22‘-And the LORD went before them by day in a pillar of a cloud, to lead them the way; and by night in a pillar of fire, to give them light; to go by day and night:
‘-He took not away the pillar of the cloud by day, nor the pillar of fire by night, from before the people.’
THE LAND HEAVING
Book of Manuscripts, chapter 6‘The Earth turned over, as clay spun upon a potter’s wheel.’
Lament of Ipuwer‘Indeed, the land turns around as does a potter’s wheel’
In his book Legend, the ancient historian David Rohl refers to text on the walls of the Egyptian temple of Edfu (‘...the Sole Unique One without peer, who was first to fashion the earth upon his (potter’s) wheel...’ Rohl then quotes the Egyptologist Eve Raymond: “The idea of fashioning the earth on the potter’s wheel is foreign to the ideological background of the main Edfu records’, and Rohl asks, ‘Is this a surviving remnant of Mesopotamian theology in Egypt?’
WATER RUNNING RED AND UNDRINKABLE
From the Kolbrin, Manuscripts 6:‘Dust and smoke clouds darkened the sky and coloured the waters upon which they fell with a bloody hue... the river was bloody and blood was everywhere. The water was vile and men’s stomachs shrank from drinking. Those who did drink from the river vomited it up, for it was polluted.’
From Lament of Ipuwer:‘Indeed, the river is blood, yet men drink of it. Men shrink from human beings and thirst after water.’
BROTHER BURIES BROTHER
From the Kolbrin, Manuscripts 6:‘There were nine days of darkness and upheaval, while a tempest raged such as never had been known before. When it passed away brother buried brother throughout the land.’
From Lament of Ipuwer‘Indeed, men are few, and he who places his brother in the ground is everywhere.’
THE EGYPTIANS GIVE JEWELLERY TO THEIR SLAVES
From the Kolbrin, Manuscripts 6:‘The people were weak from fear and bestowed gold, silver, lapis lazuli, turquoise and copper upon the slaves...’
From Lament of Ipuwer‘Indeed, gold and lapis lazuli, silver and turquoise, carnelian and amethyst, Ibhet-stone and [text missing...] are strung on the necks of maidservants.’
Exodus, chapter 12‘And the children of Israel did according to the word of Moses; and they borrowed of the Egyptians jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and raiment.’
TERRIFIC NOISE IN THE SKY
From the Kolbrin, Manuscripts 6‘The days of stillness were followed by a time when the noise of trumpeting and shrilling was heard in the Heavens, and the people became as frightened beasts without a herdsman...’
Lament of Ipuwer‘Indeed, [...missing text...] because of noise; noise is not [...] in years of noise, and there is no end [of] noise.’
In Ignatius Donnelly’s book Ragnarok: the age of fire and gravel,1883, in which he proposes that a comet hit the earth in prehistoric times and destroyed a high civilization, he puts forward the theory that the incredibly ancient Book of Job (it’s apparently older than the rest of the Old Testament and sticks out like a sore thumb) has much in it which is consistent with cataclysmic times (from darkness to skin eruptions to terrific noise).
From Job 15: 21‘A dreadful sound is in his ears: in prosperity the destroyer shall come upon him.’
6.
From the Timaeus, Plato:‘To this city [the Egyptian city of Sais] came Solon (several generations older than Plato), and was received there with great honour; he asked the priests who were most skilful in such matters, about antiquity, and made the discovery that neither he nor any other Hellene knew anything worth mentioning about the times of old. On one occasion, wishing to draw them on to speak of antiquity, he began to tell about the most ancient things in our part of the world-about Phoroneus, who is called "the first man," and about Niobe; and after the Deluge, of the survival of Deucalion and Pyrrha; and he traced the genealogy of their descendants, and reckoning up the dates, tried to compute how many years ago the events of which he was speaking happened.
‘Thereupon one of the priests, who was of a very great age, said: O Solon, Solon, you Hellenes are never anything but children, and there is not an old man among you. Solon in return asked him what he meant. I mean to say, he replied, that in mind you are all young; there is no old opinion handed down among you by ancient tradition, nor any science which is hoary with age. And I will tell you why. There have been, and will be again, many destructions of mankind arising out of many causes; the greatest have been brought about by the agencies of fire and water, and other lesser ones by innumerable other causes. There is a story, which even you have preserved, that once upon a time Paethon, the son of Helios, having yoked the steeds in his father's chariot, because he was not able to drive them in the path of his father, burnt up all that was upon the earth, and was himself destroyed by a thunderbolt.
‘Now this has the form of a myth, but really signifies a declination of the bodies moving in the heavens around the earth, and a great conflagration of things upon the earth, which recurs after long intervals; at such times those who live upon the mountains and in dry and lofty places are more liable to destruction than those who dwell by rivers or on the seashore. And from this calamity the Nile, who is our never-failing saviour, delivers and preserves us. When, on the other hand, the gods purge the earth with a deluge of water, the survivors in your country are herdsmen and shepherds who dwell on the mountains, but those who, like you, live in cities are carried by the rivers into the sea. Whereas in this land, neither then nor at any other time, does the water come down from above on the fields, having always a tendency to come up from below; for which reason the traditions preserved here are the most ancient.
The fact is, that wherever the extremity of winter frost or of summer does not prevent, mankind exist, sometimes in greater, sometimes in lesser numbers. And whatever happened either in your country or in ours, or in any other region of which we are informed-if there were any actions noble or great or in any other way remarkable, they have all been written down by us of old, and are preserved in our temples. Whereas just when you and other nations are beginning to be provided with letters and the other requisites of civilized life, after the usual interval, the stream from heaven, like a pestilence, comes pouring down, and leaves only those of you who are destitute of letters and education; and so you have to begin all over again like children, and know nothing of what happened in ancient times, either among us or among yourselves. As for those genealogies of yours which you just now recounted to us, Solon, they are no better than the tales of children. In the first place you remember a single deluge only, but there were many previous ones...’
Like the Timaeus, the Kolbrin states that there have been many cataclysms in the past, and makes clear that each event wipes out all traces of civilisation, so that the survivors have to start all over again, like children.
From the Kolbrin, Creation 3:8‘Men and their dwelling places were gone, only sky boulders and red earth remained where once they were, but amidst all the desolation a few survived, for man is not easily destroyed. They crept out from caves and came down from the mountainsides. Their eyes were wild and their limbs trembled, their bodies shook and their tongues lacked control. Their faces were twisted and the skin hung loose on their bones. They were as maddened wild beasts driven into an enclosure before flames; they knew no law, being deprived of all the wisdom they once had and those who had guided them were gone.’
From the Kolbrin, Manuscripts 4‘When the Earth became light, next day, man saw man driven to madness.
‘All was gone. Men clothed themselves with the skins of beasts and were eaten by wild beasts, things with clashing teeth used them for food. A great horde of rats devoured everything, so that man died of hunger. The Braineaters hunted men down and slew them.
‘Children wandered the plainland like wild beasts, for men and women became stricken with a sickness that passed over the children. An issue covered their bodies which swelled up and burst, while flame consumed their bellies. Every man who had an issue of seed within him and every woman who had a flow of blood died.
‘The children grew up without instruction, and having no knowledge turned to strange ways and beliefs. They became divided according to their tongues.’

From the Kolbrin‘Of the warriors who came with us there were a score of score of men from Ilopinos. They wore helmets of bronze with plumes of scarlet and purple. Their shields were of bronze burnished, so that they shone like the sun and were edged with a band of hardened metal. In length they were two and a half cubits, and in width one and a half cubits. They had spears of unknotted wood six cubits in length, with blades of hard metal set in sockets...
‘In seven days all the ships sailed together...
Among the fighting men were some from Sparsia whose leader was Korin, called the axeman, but whom we named ‘the cunning one’...
‘The ships were divided and those who wished to set up the eagle and serpent went to the Harbour of Giants in Belharia. The same giants are builders of great temples and they are six cubits tall.
‘The ship with Korin stayed with us and he hunted them out of their caves and slew them all, save one giantess. She came to us, bound as a surety for the life of the wife of Albanik.
‘We came to a bay on one side of which was a forest and on the other a plain where herds grazed. For the men of that place it was the time of the feast of fires and they held games upon the shore and ran races in cleared land behind. At this time they would not fight, so we met them in peace...
‘Because of the feast these people demanded the giantess, and she was given over to them for the days of feasting.
‘We did not know the ways of these people and when we saw they wished us to drink blood, we drew apart from them. The headman sent a messenger to us and Korin and the giantess wrestled together, but the giantess was the stronger, so Korin lured her towards the cliff edge. Korin taunted her and laughed at her clumsiness, and then at the break of the cliff he tricked her, so that she rushed forward. As she passed beside him he turned behind her and pushed, so that she fell over the cliff edge on to a large black rock below. Her back was broken. The same black rock was later split and taken up to be worshipped.’
There are echoes throughout this text of things Ancient Greek – see the description at the beginning. Odysseus is called ‘the craft/wily one’ throughout the Odyssey, here he is called ‘the cunning one’. He sails from place to place (I’ve left out all the voyaging which appears in this piece of text). He tussles with a Cyclop and kills him.
Incidentally, I find the Giants of Beharia fascinating. Six cubits is 10 foot 4 inches tall. . And, when all the avant-garde prehistorians are tying themselves in knots wondering who built Baalbek and Stonehenge and other gigantic stone edifices, what a gift of information: ‘The same giants are builders of great temples.’

From The Kolbrin, Gleanings 8In this section, a hero called Hurmanetar journeys to the Nether World, which echoes both the Odyssey and the Aeneid in which Odysseus and Aeneas go down into the Underworld.

Genesis states the ages to which men lived in the early days of mankind – Adam 930, Seth 912 years etc. The Turin King list gives incredibly long lives to the early Egyptian rulers, whom it describes as ‘gods’.
From the Kolbrin, Gleanings 2‘It came about that the sons of The Children of God mated with the daughters of The Children of Men, who knew well the ways of men and were not reserved. The covenant had been broken and strange women were taken into the households, some even as wives, but though the daughters were lesser women, the sons were wonderfully big and mighty fighting men. ...This was when the years of man's life were lessened because he became fully Earth-sustained, but he remained full of vigour though filled with hostility, particularly towards those who loved.’
10.
In Murry Hope’s book The Sirius Connection – and in most books by the avant–garde prehistorians Hancock / Bauval / John Anthony West / David Rohl / Robert Temple etc. – the authors discuss what are termed ‘the epagomenal days:– the intercalculated or intercalary days, and the gods worshipped on those days that formed no part of the month of the old solar year’.
From the Kolbrin‘Then came the year of the great flood of waters, though some say it was before these days, when the salt seas rose upon the East and covered the land. Men were warned beforehand by the shortening of the days of the year, and the five days now added to the days of the year are days of sorrow for the alteration of things.’
11.
From -Exodus 16:35 ‘And the children of Israel did eat manna forty years, until they came to a land inhabited; they did eat manna, until they came unto the borders of the land of Canaan.’
From the Kolbrin, Manuscripts 33:21‘Honey comes airborne from Heaven, to be gathered by the bee. Once, the Earth was veiled within an awesome cloud and in those days honey fell as frost upon the ground, and it fed man and beast when the herbage withered.’
12.
From the Kolbrin, Manuscripts 1: 16–19‘In Ramakui there was a great city with roads and waterways, and the fields were bounded with walls of stone and channels. In the centre of the land was the great flat-topped Mountain of God.
‘The city had walls of stone and was decorated with stones of red and black, white shells and feathers. There were heavy green stones in the land and stones patterned in green, black and brown. There were stones of saka, which men cut for ornaments, stones which became molten for cunning work. They built walls of black glass and bound them with glass by fire.
‘They used strange fire from the Netherworld which was but slightly separated from them, and foul air from the breath of the damned rose in their midst. They made eye reflectors of glass stone, which cured the ills of men. They purified men with strange metal and purged them of evil spirits in flowing fire.’
This is surely a description of Atlantis, which Plato describes in the Critias and the Timaeus, as having roads and water channels, with a flat-topped mountain in the centre where Poseidon’s temple stood. Plato describes the city walls as being decorated with red and black. He also describes a material which men fashioned and which was highly prizes – orichalcum.
Robert Temple has identified an object in the British Museum as being an ancient piece of glass, made at a time when it was not thought that human beings had such skills – but the Kolbrin mention black glass walls and ‘eye reflectors of glass stone’.

Recent translations of Mesopotamic clay tablets indicate that the Ark in the original Babylonian flood tale was of a cylindrical shape. In the translations, reduplication of word particles was often used as a plural or for emphasis, as we find in the Flood Tale when the boat of Ziusudra is called MA2.GUR.GUR, meaning “a boat that can roll and turn upside-downâ€.
The Kolbrin supports this minute detail:
“Those who had not laboured at the building of the great ship and those who had mocked the builders came quickly to the place where it was lying. They climbed upon the ship and beat upon it with their hands; they raged and pleaded, but could not enter inside, nor could they break the wood. As the great ship was borne up by the waters it ROLLED and they were swept off, for there was no foothold for them. The ship was lifted by the mighty surge of waters and hurled among the debris, but it was not dashed upon the mountainside because of the place where it was built. All the people not saved within the ship were swallowed up in the midst of raging confusion, and their wickedness and corruption was purged away from the face of the Earth.â€

An anonymous internet blogger 322231
http://codexceltica.blogspot.com/ who researched the King’s lists mentioned in the British books within the Kolbrin came up with some surprising finds:
“We start with: ‘One hundred and sixty years after the death of Ardpeth, the last king. Twenty years after the death of Garadon Pankris. Eighty years after the death of Kelwin. One hundred years after the death of Afterid.’ Well, though Ardpeth was supposedly king of somewhere, and the name Kelwin[e] (Kelvin?) does at least sound familiar, none of these names are found in the standard sources like the Welsh Annals or the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, and the lack of any cross-referencing detail here makes this lot a dead end. Perhaps these were all local figures otherwise unrecorded. So we simply draw a blank on that one.
“Other references to kings, however, do prove traceable. One says the book was completed in ‘the 7th year in the reign of Ecgfrid, son of Oswey, king of North Saxondom’. Ecgfrith son of Oswy ruled Northumbria from 670 until he was killed by Picts in 685. This would put completion well after the US editor’s surmised end-date of 500 CE, specifically in 677 CE.
“Linguistically, this means the Celtic text could have been in a surviving dialect of Brythonic-like Welsh. Due to the English expansion splitting Britain into Celtic pockets like Wales and Cornwall, the national language began to break down into a basic form, losing its ‘classical’ declension case endings around 550, according to scholars like KH Jackson. Manuscripts created before this watershed soon became nigh-incomprehensible to later copyists, as Jackson showed in his 1969 study of the epic 6th-C. poem “Gododdin†(commemorating a raid c590 AD from Edinburgh into Northumbria). But the breakdown of Brythonic into regional dialects like Welsh meant that post-watershed works could survive in a living dialect that was evolving a written form. This is more positive evidence than the US editor’s earlier date, as it would’ve made the text more understandable to later generations of copyists.
“From our first ‘fix’ at 677 CE, we can backtrack from other given regnal dates to see if they converge on a consistent date for the book – and make sense historically.
“The death of ‘Okther’ 165 years ago could refer to Octha, founder of Saxon Kent. This would give us 677 minus 165 = 512; Octha’s death date is unknown, usually put at 522 or later. But he is not mentioned in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle and in British sources like Nennius seems to be earlier, taking over from his father (or grandfather) the legendary Saxon leader Hengist after 488.
“However, we also have 677 as year 2 of Ketwin’s kingship of West Saxondom and year 14 of Ardwulf’s reign over the East Saxons. The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle has a ‘Centwine’ ruling Wessex 677-, yielding 678. Ardwulf is not the name of any recorded Anglo-Saxon king, but there was an Aldwulf ruling East Anglia from 663/4-, which would give us a writing date of 677/678.
“The ‘fourth year in the reign of Lothir, king of all the Kents’ leads us to Kentish king Hlothhere (Latin Clotharius or Lotharius) who acceded 674/675, yielding a date of 678-9.
“There is also the death of a ‘great king’ 13 years before (=664), during ‘the devil’s breath’. The ASC for 664 refers to ‘a great plague’, which Bede also describes as a devastating plague. The ‘great king’ could be Eorcenberht, the King of Kent of whom Bede says ‘he most nobly governed’, and was first to order that all pagan idols be smashed, and was the father of Lothair just mentioned.
“It is also ‘the fifth year we suffer under the afflicting fires of the Black Bull of the North’. Despite the lack of a proper name, this suggests Pictish raids. In 672 [677 minus 5] AD, the fierce Pictish battleking Brude son of Beli came to power. His cross-border attacks would lead to a disastrous Northumbrian expedition led into Pictland in 685 by the already-mentioned Ecgfrith son of Oswy, who perished along with most of his army in the resulting battle.
“‘Kadwilan of the Firstfaith’ [i.e. a pagan] suggests the famed North Wales warrior-king Cadwallon. He died in 634, but the reference is to his slaying a 46-year old Christian king 44 years ago [677 minus 44 = 633] in a bloody ‘slaughter’. In 633, Cadwallon famously (infamously, to Bede) slew the 47-year-old Edwin, Christian king of Northumbria and his sons in a major battle, causing Northumbria to break up.
“The ‘third year in the reign of Ethelbred’ leads us to Ethelred [no b] ruler of Mercia from 674. Ethelred was not a notable king, but the reference is given with the month and approximate day – between the 7th and 10th of September, suggesting the writer lives in Mercia (in the Midlands) and is using an official local date, though I’m having to guess at the exact day.
“While nearly all these references lead to verifiable names or events, and the dates nearly all converge back within a year or two of 677 CE, we still have the problem of more general events where the date is a matter of interpretation. There’s also a reference to its being 122 years since ‘the coming of the long-sword-wielding warbands’. This suggests that the arrival of the Saxons (named after their swords, the ‘saex’ then not a standard weapon) was later than the usual date, at 677 minus 222 = 455. The Anglo-Saxon Advent is usually put at 448/449 at the latest. However 455 is often given as the decisive date of their rebellion under Hengist and Horsa, when they overwhelmed their Romano-British employers led by Vortigern, cf the ASC, sub AD 455: ‘This year Hengest and Horsa fought with Wurtgern the king on the spot that is called Aylesford. His brother Horsa being there slain, Hengest afterwards took to the kingdom with his son Esc.’
“We also get a more challenging claim: ‘It is one hundred and thirty years [=547] since the last warband came and stayed with the land they took, when Britain ceased to be, during the reign of King Ifor.’ Ifor is unidentifiable without any details or a surname [patronymic or locative], but the date 547 is the one often cited as the end of an era for successful resistance to Saxon expansion. That year, the most powerful British king, Maelgwyn Gwynedd, died and a great plague struck Britain, devastating the population. After years without any advance westward, the Saxons had by 552 crossed the watershed of central England and occupied Sarum [Old Salisbury], so that ‘Britain ceased to be’ – at least as a single kingdom.â€
The research required by hoaxers to include this level of detail would have been exhausting. And to what end? To then refrain from trying to make some financial gain out of all their hard work?

A quote from Pliny the Elder:
“A terrible comet was seen by the people of Ethiopia and Egypt, to which Typhon, the king of that period, gave his name; it had a fiery appearance and was twisted like a coil, and it was very grim to behold: it was not really a star so much as what might be called a ball of fire.â€
Pliny’s statement clearly correlates with this passage found in the Kolbrin:
“The Doomshape, called the Destroyer, in Egypt, was seen in all the lands whereabouts. In colour it was bright and fiery, in appearance changing and unstable. It twisted about itself like a coil, like water bubbling into a pool from an underground supply, and all men agree it was a most fearsome sight. It was not a great comet or a loosened star, being more like a fiery body of flame.â€

From the Kolbrin, Manuscripts 1:32 ‘He died in the manner of men, though his likeness is that of God. Then they cut him apart, that his body might make fertile the fields, and took away his head, that it might bring them wisdom. His bones they did not paint red, for they were not as those of others.’
From The Mysteries of Britain, Lewis Spence (1905) ‘Late Aurignacian burials display the first steps in the development of mummification at a period of at least 14,000 years B.C. The flesh was removed from the bones and these were painted red, the colour of life.’
[
From Wikipedia: The Aurignacian culture is an archaeological culture of the Upper Palaeolithic, located in Europe and southwest Asia. It lasted broadly within the period from ca. 45,000 to 35,000 years ago (about 37,000 to 27,000 years ago on the uncalibrated radiocarbon timescale; between ca. 47,000 and 41,000 years ago using the most recent calibration of the radiocarbon timescale). The name originates from the type site of Aurignac in the Haute-Garonne area of France.
The oldest known example of figurative art, the Venus of Hohle Fels, comes from this culture. It was discovered in September 2008 in a cave at Schelklingen in 3Baden-Württemberg in southern Germany.]

Lewis Spence in The Mysteries of Britain (1905) describes a legendary hero called Hu Gadarn who had sacred oxen and overcame evil powers.
The Kolbrin, Origins 6Hew/Hewe is described as one who ‘made the soil to be uplifted, overturning it upon the winter-held grain. He first brought the long ox-drawn fieldrakes and carried fertility to the pasturelands. Winters were no longer times of hunger, for now, all ate without stint from hide-lined cellars filled with fire-dried corn.’
When ‘wolfwretches’ [barbaric dwarf people] came in the night to steal their women, Hew led his people into battle against them and when peace was made, he took their leader’s daughter to wife as a pledge of peace.

Osiris is traditionally described as ‘a dark god’, ‘the black Osiris’. In Thrice Greatest Hermes (John Watkins, 1964), G.R.S. Mead quotes an ancient Egyptian magic papyrus, ‘He who is Lord in the perfect black’.
The Kolbrin, Manuscripts 1:21‘From the West, from beyond Mandi, came the Great One arrayed in robes of black linen and wearing a headdress of red.’

Robert Temple in The Sirius Mystery, Robert Bauval in The Orion Mystery, Giorgio De Santillana and Hertha Von Dechend in Hamlet’s Mill and many other writers use myths as a vital stepping-stone to their explorations of prehistory.
The Kolbrin, Manuscripts 1:23‘Who taught men the nature and knowledge of God, but in the years left to him could not bring them to understanding? Who, then, veiled the great secrets in simple tales which they could remember and in signs which would not be lost to their children’s children?’

Wikipedia entry for ‘Passover’‘The verb "pasà ch" (Hebrew: פָּסַח) is first mentioned in the Torah account of the Exodus from Egypt (:Exodus 12:23), and there is some debate about its exact meaning: the commonly held assumption that it means "He passed over" (פסח), in reference to God "passing over" (skipping) the houses of the Hebrews during the final of the Ten Plagues of Egypt, stems from the translation provided in the Septuagint (παρελευσεται in :Exodus 12:23, and εσκεπασεν in :Exodus 12:27).’
Exodus 12: 1-12‘And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying...
‘Speak ye unto all the congregation of Israel, saying, In the tenth day of this month they shall take to them every man a lamb, according to the house of their fathers, a lamb for an house...
‘...-And thus shall ye eat it; with your loins girded, your shoes on your feet, and your staff in your hand; and ye shall eat it in haste: it is the LORD'S passover.
‘-For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night, and will smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment: I am the LORD.’
Something clearly passed over the Israelites when they were in bondage in Egypt. In the Old Testament, what passed over is interpreted as God. The Kolbrin states what ‘passed over’ the Israelites living in the reedlands:
The Kolbrin, Manuscripts 6 ‘On the great night of The Destroyer’s wrath, when its terror was at its height, there was a hail of rocks and the Earth heaved as pain rent her bowels. Gates, columns and walls were consumed by fire and the statues of Gods were overthrown and broken. People fled outside their dwellings in fear and were slain by the hail. Those who took shelter from the hail were swallowed when the Earth split open.
‘The habitations of men collapsed upon those inside and there was panic on every hand, but the slaves who lived in huts in the reedlands, at the place of pits, were spared...
The land writhed under the wrath of The Destroyer and groaned with the agony of Egypt. It shook itself and the temples and palaces of the nobles were thrown down from their foundations. The highborn ones perished in the midst of the ruins and all the strength of the land was stricken. Even the great one, the first born of Pharaoh, died with the highborn in the midst of the terror and falling stones. The children of princes were cast out into the streets and those who were not cast out died within their abodes.
‘There were nine days of darkness and upheaval, while a tempest raged such as never had been known before. When it passed away brother buried brother throughout the land. Men rose up against those in authority and fled from the cities to dwell in tents in the outlands.
‘Egypt lacked great men to deal with the times. The people were weak from fear and bestowed gold, silver, lapis lazuli, turquoise and copper upon the slaves, and to their priests they gave chalices, urns and ornaments. Pharaoh alone remained calm and strong in the midst of confusion. The people turned to wickedness in their weakness and despair. Harlots walked through the streets unashamed. Women paraded their limbs and flaunted their womanly charms. Highborn women were in rags and the virtuous were mocked.
‘The slaves spared by The Destroyer left the accursed land forthwith. Their multitude moved in the gloom of a half dawn, under a mantle of fine swirling grey ash, leaving the burnt fields and shattered cities behind them. Many Egyptians attached themselves to the host, for one who was great led them forth, a priest prince of the inner courtyard.’
Incidentally, the historian David Rohl has suggested that the gigantic eruption(s?) on the island of Thera could have caused the destruction which is described in the Lament/Admonitions of Ipuwer - destruction which I identify with ‘The Destroyer’ in the Book of Manuscripts. However, although many of the phenomena described in the Book of Manuscripts could be attributed to a the biggest volcano of all time, others can’t. Also, the Book of Manuscripts states that the ancient land of Egypt was visited not once, but twice by The Destroyer, and that The Destroyer has a very lengthy, regular cycle. Plato also says that the same kind of cataclysm has happened over and over again at times of planetar perturbation.

The Kolbrin, Book of Britain, 5:21‘Joseph Idewin was related to Avalek, whose kingdom bordered that of Arviragus, through Anna the Unfaithful. He converted Claudia Rufina, the daughter of Caradew previously called Gladys, who married Pudens, a Roman, and had a daughter Pudentia. In his twenty-eighth year, Caradew was betrayed to the Romans by Arisia, queen of Bryantis.’
The British Museum (Hart Manuscript), the Herald's Office at the English College of Arms and Jesus College Oxford These three institutions all contain genealogies of Joseph of Arimathea and Jesus (see below). They suggest that the families of Joseph and Jesus were extremely well connected in northern Europe. When she went to live in Rome with her husband, Gladys, who is said to have been the first Christian convert in Britain, was adopted by the Emperor Claudius and renamed Claudia.
On her website ‘Unravelling the mysteries of Glastonbury’, Teresa Williams sets out these three different genealogies, and they tie in with what the Kolbrin states. (It looks as if ‘Caradew’ can be identified with Caradoc/Caractacus.)

‘From this document we learn that Ann, mother of the Virgin Mary, was married three times. Her first husband was Joachim by whom she had the Virgin Mary, her second husband was Cleophas and her third was Salome. (In Hachette's guide Bleu Bretagne there is an ancient Breton tradition that Anna, mother of the Virgin Mary, was born in Cornouaille (Cornwall?) of Royal blood. When she was pregnant with the Virgin Mary, her husband (Joachim), ill treated her and she fled from Europe to Jaffa and settled in Nazareth where Mary was born.) Ann or Anna,had a sister called Bianca who was the mother of Joseph, the Virgin Mary's husband, thus showing that he was also her first cousin.

‘In the British Museum there is the Harl Manuscript which confirms the above information. Another manuscript, held at Jesus College, shows the family tree of Joseph of Arimathea and gives confirmation that Penardin, granddaughter of Joseph of Arimathea married King Lear of Britain. Notice that far from being confined to Palestine, the Holy Family seem, through Joseph of Arimathea, to have intermarried into British royalty and to have left Palestine to live in Britain.
