        Gaelic Milesians: Descended in the main initially from *36.Gallamh - warrior - aka *36.Mil (Latin) a son of *34.Breoghan - Brigus who was of Scythian Gaelic Celtic descent who is also the ancestor of the Brigantes, and the 1st Gaelic King of Galicia, Andalusia, Murcia & Brigia - now known as Castile & Portugal who constructed Breoghan’s Tower - Brigantia in Galicia & Braganza in Portugal. One of his sons, *35.Bile became the 2nd Gaelic King of Galicia, Andalusia, Murcia & Brigia - Castile & Portugal and it was his son, *36.Mil aka *36.Gallamh who was widely respected throughout Gaul as the Celtic Hero of Spain as he had previously gone to Egypt to serve the Pharaoh - King - there and defeated the Ethiopians in battle on his behalf. Nectanbus the Egyptian Pharaoh - King then gave him his daughter, Scota - Scotia in marriage who was to give her name to Scotland through her Gaelic Milesian descendants the Heremonian Ui Cobhthaigh Muscraige Scottii - Irishmen - of Dal Riada through one of her surviving sons in Ireland, *37.Heremon, and his descendants, 69.Conaire 11 the 111th King of Tara - Ireland and his son, 70.Eochy - Cairbre “Riada.” *36.Mil not only succeeded his father as the Gaelic King in Spain but was to become the main ancestor of the aristocratic Celtic Gaelic Milesians in Ireland predominantly through 3 of his 8 sons who were to make the second Gaelic expedition to Eire - Ireland. (*36.Gallamh's name would be later changed by the Celtic Irish monks to *Milesius from the Latin term - mileadh - also meaning warrior and from there shortened to *36.Mil.)

     *36.Mil aka *36 Gollamh the Scythian Celtic Gaelic Hero of Spain who was the 3rd King of Castile & Portugal is the ancestor of the Gaelic Milesian *Heberian, *Heremonian & *Irian Septs - Family Branches -  in Ireland descended from 3 of his sons *37.Heber "Fionn" - of Fair Complexion - the direct ancestor of the Heberian Septs, *37.Heremon the direct ancestor of the Heremonian Septs & *37.Ir the direct ancestor of the Irian Septs. Their mother was Scota the daughter of Nectanbus the Pharaoh of Egypt.

     The Gaelic *Ithian Septs in Southern Munster are descended from 36.Mil's uncle, *35.Ithe and his son, *36.Lewy - Lughaidh.

      All of their descendants in Ireland were the Gaelic noble - aristocratic warrior class known as the Saorchlana who became the Gaelic Kings and warriors of Ireland and the Scottish Highlands.

                                     Heberian Septs descended from - *37.Heber "Fionn" - of Fair Complexion.                                        

 

*36.Mil's oldest surviving son,*37.Heber "Fionn" - of Fair Complexion - was to be the Gaelic Milesian 1st joint King of Tara - Eire - Erinn after initially sharing the Gaelic Milesian Kingship of Ireland with his brother, 37.Heremon in the 17th Century BC and was then to become the patriarch of the Heberian Septs - Family branches - in the southern half of Ireland (Southern Leinster & Munster). His mother, Scota - Scotia was the daughter of Nectanbus the Pharaoh of Egypt and he was to be the direct ancestor of *83.Mogha "Nuadhat" the Heberian King of Mogha's Half - Southern Ireland in the 2nd Century AD who was married to Momera - Beara a daughter of the Gaelic King of Spain. This was to be before the total dominance of 80.Conn of the Hundred Battles the Heremonian 110th King of Tara - Ireland descended from *37.Heber "Fionn's" brother, 37.Heremon and the loss by the Heberians & Ithians of their territory in Southern Leinster to 80.Conn who would become the direct ancestor of the Heremonian Ui Cobhthaigh - Dal Cuinn - (People of Conn.) Mogha's Half prior to this was to originally include both Munster Province and Southern Leinster but from then on Heberian total control would only mainly be in the south in Munster composed of the territories in Co. Cork, Co. Kerry, Co. Limerick, Co. Tipperary & Co. Waterford and later also in the early 4th Century AD they would take in Co. Clare then physically in the far west in Southern Connacht. Despite this the Heberian Septs would continue to try and regain control over the territory in Southern Leinster, originally in Mogha's Half, whenever the opportunity occurred.

 

     In the Munster Province they were to culminate into 3 main Heberian Tuatha - Family regions - and their 4 Septs - Family Branches -  were to emanate from 4 brothers who were to be the sons of *83.Mogha "Nuadhat's" son, *84.Ailill "Oluimm" who was to become the Heberian 1st King of Munster only, who was married to 81.Sadbh the daughter of 80.Conn of the Hundred Battles the Heremonian 110th King of Tara - Ireland. (1) *85.Eoghan - Owen "Mor" was to become the direct ancestor of the Eoghanachta - (People of Eoghan). (2.) *85.Cormac "Cass" - of the Curly Hair - the 2nd King of Munster and 1st King of Northern Munster was to become the ancestor of the Dal gCais - (People of *91.Cas) his direct descendant who later became the King of Thomond - Northern Munster that by then also included Co. Clare in the far - west, which was geographically originally in the south of the Connacht Province. (3) *85.Cian - Keen became the direct ancestor of the Cianachta - (People of Cian) - whose Septs were to eventually also spread out into the other 3 Provinces due to their early commitment to their maternal line from 81.Sadbh and the Heremonian Ui Cobhthaigh Dal Cuinn Sept. Another son, *85.Tierney - Tighernach was to be the direct ancestor of the Cenel Cerdraige Sept, which were not so prominent.

They were to be given the territory there by *37.Heremon when he became the sole Celtic Gaelic Milesian King of Tara - Erinn in his own right. Eventually 37.Ir's descendants were to be the Kings of Ulster and also intermittently gain the Gaelic Irian Kingship of Tara - Ireland for themselves also over a long period of time. They were to lose the Kingship of Ulster in the early 3rd Century AD when they came under siege from the Heremonian Ui Cobhthaigh Dal Cuinn 3 Colla Septs descended also from 80.Conn of the Hundred Battles the 110th King of Tara - Ireland and 37.Heremon, who then gained the territory in Southern Ulster known as Orghialla - Oriel.

Down there, as the Heremonian Ui Cobhthaigh Muscraige Dal Riada Sept descended from 69.Conaire 11 the 111th King of Tara - Ireland and therefore also of 37.Heremon gained territory from them in the far - north - east of Co.
