  • As I explained in my previous videos on Iron Age Iberia, the Roman Conquest of Hispania took two centuries to complete, one of the last regions to be conquered being that in the very northwest of the peninsula, the modern province of Galicia and its neighbours. In this video I'll look at the Roman conquest of Galicia, the foundation of its most important city, Lucus Augusti, before exploring the pre-Roman, Celtic etymology and history of Lugo relating to the Celtic God Lugus/Lugos and some related deities in the Roman Pantheon and the Norse Pantheon.

      Galicians have the highest percentage of northern african blood in the iberian peninsula due to many escaping north and westward in Reconquista. The western part of castille and leon and Galicia is an example of it. There is Celtic origin, no doubt .. but not the only one .. Spain, no matter the place, is much more diverse than just 1 origin ..

    Book of Invasions (Lebor Gabála), written by Irish monks in the 11th century. According to the legend, King Breogán (who is mentioned in the Galician national anthem as Galicia’s founder) founded a city and built a huge tower on the coast. On a clear night, one of his sons, Ith, could see a distant green land from the top of the tower and decided to sail north to explore that unknown land. This green land was Ireland that they landed on, resulting in the final wave of "Celtic" culture to the Island. Irish - Galician stare cultural connections as well as Irish connections to other peoples of northern Spain, in fact this runs deep, even on a genetic level. So maybe there is some truth to the Irish Milesian and Galician Story. "Celtic Brothers" I guess.

      The Celtic peoples inhabited the entire continent once upon a time. Eventually pushed west by the Germanic tribes who came from the north and either romanised or absorbed into other cultures through time. The region their people inhabited even stretched as far as Ukraine and Anatolia. And of course GB and Ireland.

      And that is one proof of what i' am saying... Portugal, Galicia, Asturias and Leon once were a united kingdom before roman invasion and conquest. A kingdom created by gaulish people who migrated from iron age central Europe (Bohemia, Austria, Hungary, Switzerland, South Germany) to northwest Iberia, France and British isles.
      The roman empire and the vatican divided the gaulish tribes in Iberia and they are responsible of why people don't talk galician language in Portugal, Asturias and Leon provinces. The reason why people from Galicia feels so comfortable and like the same race with their neighbors from mid and northern Portugal, Asturias and Leon provinces is because they are the same gaulish tribe of people.
      Also the gaulish tribes in Europe never called themselves "Celts", they called themselves: GAL, Gauls, Galek, Galegos, Gaels and Anglos in Great Britain (An-Galos: the prefix "an" meaning "Gallic men" or "Gauls from god or from heaven", because prefix "an" can be traduced heaven, god or man), and so on

      @@felixccaa Yes. The gaulish tribes first arrived in Iberia at what is now Galicia. Then they go southwards and eastwards creating cities, introducing GENES mixing with the natives (bell beaker white related people, galos never mixed with not white populations), expanding material culture, religion and their galician language. Their capital city when they were already a kingdom was "Oportugal" in what is now Porto city, Portugal. The city was devastated and reconstructed with different arquitecture for erase and rewrite history our history when the Galitzia kingdom fell after some centuries of wars and brave resistance against MENA and Roman empires pieces of crap.
      You can notice the root "GAL" im so many words of place names and toponyms around Europe and the world... (for example "GALeon ships for war and GALera for commerce ships"). Is really amazing, healthy and positive to know our true history and origins as galos because if you know your origins, you will know were to go in life. We were once the most greater naval power of indo european origin who ever existed. Time will do justice with GAL people and with other kingdoms of Iberia. All will be known

They were removed eventually by the Germ Marcomanni tribe. During the great migration period, slavs settled. They formed states such as great Moravia and the Premyslid dynasty (first considered as Czech) ruled the land for hundreds of years independently and under the HRE.

    The etymology of Leiden at 10:59 is wrong. If Celtic *lug- were (part of) the etymology, we would expect the modern place name to be 'Luiden'. Leiden is often being referred to as Lugdunum Batavorum, but that is a folk etymology, not its actual etymology. Instead, it probably descends from Proto-Germanic *līþa- 'canal' or *laguz 'water'.

      @ingmigueleduardo7 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      No... not related at all. But instead Lugo city in Galicia was named after "Lugh" god. Lugo means "god man" in spanish language and is the same deity as "Lugh" in gaulish "celtic" language from central Europe. So Lugo in ancient times was originally a town in Galicia dedicated for the gaulish "celtic" god "Lugh" which is the same "Lugo" of the gaulish "celtic" people of Galicia and Portugal. I don't like call them "celts" because they didn't called themselves that way. They call themselves by the names of GAL, Gael, Galos, Galegos, Gaul, Galek, Anglos (an-galos), etc.

They were independent tribes but belong to the same ethnic group and called themselves with the root word of "GAL". Varying their name depending on the places in which they settled for example in Gaul (France) they called themselves "Gauls", in PortuGAL + GALicia + Asturias and Leon (in Iberia) they called themselves "Galos or Galegos", in England they called themselves "Anglos" (An-Galos), in Ireland and Scotland they called themselves "Gaels" and so on...

Loki is mostly known for most people, I think, as a lying, scheming, manipulating trickster. Sort of the black sheep of the Asgard world. I think people are underestimating how popular he was, and how powerful he was thought to be. Anyway, Odin is ALSO a lying, scheming and manipulating character, so I guess they're fosterbrothers for a reason.

    @ingmigueleduardo7 2 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Lugo effectively is cognate with the gaulish "celtic" word "Lugh", which is a so called "celtic" god of craftmanship, war and knowledge. Lugh or Lugo is equivalent to Odin in norse religion, Hermes in Roman religion and even "Jaungoiko" in Basque folklore. So the Lugo of Portugal, Galicia, Asturias and Leon (which once were a united kingdom before roman invasion and conquest) is the same Lugh of the gaulish "celtic" tribes of central Europe.
    And this is because gaulish "celtic" peoples of Portugal and Galicia comes from the same gaulish tribes of central Europe. Even today exists the name "Galitzie" for a "kingdom" that existed in central Europe (Bohemia, Austria and Hungary) prior to the "new world era", at least the official corrupt academy recognises that.
    Gaulish elite rich tribes colonized Britain and northwest Iberia in the iron age introducing their GENES, material culture, religion and languages. Later on internal migrations on iberian peninsula, mixing with local populations (bell beaker natives), war against other tribes and MENA empires, religious conversions and erasing and rewriting of history in Iberia caused gaulish DNA becoming more dilute over time. But there are still gaulish DNA from iron age central Europe in northern Portugal and Galicia.
    Waves of Galitzie or Gaulish elite people (wrongly called "celts") from central Europe entered Britain and northwest Iberia via land from ancient Gaul (France). But also they entered those regions via maritime routes too, specially in west and north parts of Iberia. In northern Italy (northern Italy originally were ruled by gaulish "celts") in Genoa city are still some old ships in the old harbour that clearly resemble the stylish of the Gaulish "celtic" ships and navy fleets. Even there is a ship called "GALleon" that resembles very well the type and design of Portuguese and British shipbuilding
    Thats because those ships (GALeon) were built by the descendants of the same common ancestor and race of people that colonized Britain and (PortuGAL + GALicia + Asturias + Leon, all once were one kingdom named GALitzia with capital in actual Porto city, PortuGAL) in the iron age. And that is the reason why the two major naval powers in the west world were Portugal and Britain. Both with similiar but not identical naval culture, estructural design and procedures.
    I think probably there was a connection between gaulish Iberia and gaulish Britain because both had navy fleets in a certain moment in time and i am convinced that they established political and comercial relations in the region in some way. (i'm talking way long before the "new world era" from 500 BCE to 1400 CE). I also think that much of the alleged forts and ports constructed around the world by the portuguese and english of the "new world era" are wrong dated and predates that era by some centuries. Probably we have this errors in dates because there are still historic gaps to find and premeditation to hide this facts by the people who control the global narrative.
    Some historians argue that "celtic" tribes entered Iberian peninsula without leaving DNA but for me this is almost imposible. Just think how absurd is that a major naval power in his time with a culture of naval fleets like Portugal and Galicia don't have DNA from the culture who created all that advancements, technology and culture, is completely absurd
