BIBLICAL HISTORY
CONTINUING OUR STUDY OF WHERE THE TRIBES ARE TODAY.
THE MIGRATION OF THE TRIBES :
732-700 B.C. Israel taken into exile by the Assyrians who called them Khumri, later corrupted to Gimira.
710-590 B.C. Israelites called Gimira by the Assyrians and Cimmerians by the Greeks established a reign of terror in Asia Minor. They finally migrated to Europe to a place which they called Arsareth (Apocrypha II Esdras 13:40-44).
650-600 B.C. Israelites in Media became as Scythians.
600-500 B.C. Following the collapse of their Assyrian allies, the Scythians were driven north through the Caucuses mountains by the Medes, and they settled in southern Russia.
During the 5th century B.C. the Scythian Israelites began moving across the rivers Don and Dnieper, thus coming into collision with the Cimmerian Israelites who had earlier migrated round the west of the Black Sea.
Knowledge of their kinship having been lost during the centuries of separation, battles ensued, forcing the Cimmerians west. Some moved away to the northwest into the sparsely inhabited regions of the Baltic, where they later became known, to the Romans, as Cimbri. The larger body of Cimmerians migrated, as scattered bands, up the Danube River arriving near its source in south Germany about 600-500 B.C. There they became known as "Celts" and "Gauls". They gave the lower Danube the Celtic name "Ister", meaning lowness.
650-500 B.C. Cimmerians in Europe moved up the Danube and became known as Celts.
525-300 B.C. Others driven out of south Russia by the Scythians moved northwest between the rivers Oder and Vistula to the Baltic, where they later became known as Cimbri.
About 390 B.C. some of the Cimmerian Israelites invaded Italy and sacked Rome. About 280 B.C. others invaded Greece and as they migrated back into Asia Minor they were called "Galatians" by the Greeks. However, most of them spread west and north across France and began to cross the English Channel into the British Isles.
400-100 B.C. The Celtic expansion from central Europe : some attacked Rome in 390 B.C. and settled for 200 years in northern Italy ; others known as Galatians, after invading Greece in 279 B.C., migrated to Asia Minor. Most of them moved west into France and later to Britain.
The Celts continued to pour into Great Britain to form the "bed-rock" of the British race. One group in Spain, known as "Iberes" (the Celtic name for Hebrews) moved into Ireland as "Scots", naming the island "Hibernia" ; a name that still exists. Some Celts remaining in Spain, became known as "Basques" ; others, in France, became as "Bretons".
250-100 B.C. South Russia was invaded from the east by the Samartian tribes, who drove the Scythians northwest through Poland into Germany.
450-1100 A.D. The Romans re-named the Scythians Germans. Some of these came to Britain as Anglo-Saxons, 450-600 A.D. ; others, after moving north became known as Danes and Vikings.
Some of these came direct to England, but others settled for a short time in France and were called Normans.
