        Gaelic Milesians: Descended in Ireland from *36.Gallamh (warrior) / *36.Mil / Milesius (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 and Brigia now known as Castile and Portugal who constructed Breoghan’s Tower / Brigantia in Galicia and Braganza in Portugal. One of his sons, *35.Bile became the 2nd Gaelic King of Galicia, Andalusia, Murcia and Brigia (Castile and Portugal) and it was his son, *36.Mil / *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 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 Ui Conaire Muscraige Scottii / Irishmen of the kingdom of Dal Riada (People of 70.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 / riata. *36.Mil not only succeeded his father as the Gaelic King in Spain, but was to become the direct 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 / *36 Gollamh the Scythian Celtic Gaelic Hero of Spain who was the 3rd King of Castile and Portugal is the ancestor of the Gaelic Milesian *Heberian, *Heremonian and *Irian Septs / Family Branches  in Ireland descended from 3 of his sons *37.Heber "Fionn" - of Fair Complexion the direct male line ancestor of the Heberian Septs, *37.Heremon his 7th son who is the direct male line ancestor of the Heremonian Septs and *37.Ir the direct male line 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 from the Gaelic noble - aristocratic warrior class known as the Saorchlana who became the Gaelic Kings and warriors of Ireland and of 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 joint 1st King of Tara / Eire / Erinn after initially sharing the Gaelic Milesian Kingship of Ireland with his younger 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 and Munster Province). 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" who became 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 Ui Cobhthaigh 110th King of Tara / Ireland descended from *37.Heber "Fionn's" brother, 37.Heremon and the loss by the Heberians and the Ithians of their territory in Southern Leinster to 80.Conn who would then become the direct ancestor of the Heremonian Ui Cobhthaigh Dal Cuinn (The People of *80.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 and Co. Waterford. (Later in the early 4th Century AD they would also take in Co. Clare then geographically in the far west in Southern Connacht.) Despite this the Heberian Septs would continue to try and regain control over their lost Heberian territory in Southern Leinster, that was originally in Mogha's Half, whenever the opportunity presented itself.

 

     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 one of the daughters of 80.Conn of the Hundred Battles the Heremonian 110th King of Tara / Ireland.(Dal Cuinn) (1) *85.Eoghan / Owen "Mor" was to become the direct ancestor of the Eoghanachta (The People of 85.Eoghan). (2.) *85.Cormac "Cass" - of the Curly Hair became the 2nd King of Munster and 1st King of Northern Munster / Thomond and the direct male line ancestor of the Dal gCais (The People of *91.Cas) his descendant who later became the King of Tuaisceart Mhumhain / Thomond / Northern Munster that by then would also included Co. Clare in the far - west, which was geographically on the western side of the River Shannon situated in the south of the Connacht Province. (3) *85.Cian / Keen was to become the direct male line ancestor of the Cianachta (The People of *85.Cian) whose aristocratic warrior 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 of *80.Conn of the Hundred Battles. Another son, *85.Tierney / Tighernach was to be the direct ancestor of the Cenel Cerdraige Sept, which were not to be so prominent.

Their territory originally took in territory in Northern Munster in the south of Co. Tipperary and Co. Limerick, and they were to later move further south into Southern Munster (Co. Cork and Co.

Their main Dalcassian Families later on were to be the O Briens and the Mac Namaras

Cianachta: descended from *85.Cian / Keen another of the sons of *84.Ailill "Oluimm" the 1st King of Munster and their Septs were to be spread throughout Ireland in the Munster Province, the Leinster Province, the Connacht Province and in the north - east of the Ulster Province due to the original commitment of his son, *86.Teague / Tadhg mac Cian to their maternal kinsmen the Dal Cuinn Septs under 82.Cormac mac Airt who was to become the 115th King of Tara / Ireland. Their main Cianachta Families came to be the O Carrolls in the north - east of the Ulster Province, the O Connors of Ely in the border region of Co. Offaly in the mid - west of Southern Leinster and Co. Tipperary in the north - east of the Munster Province, the O Garas and the O Haras mainly in Co.

       Another of *36.Mil's 8 sons who left aristocratic warrior Gaelic Milesian Kings was *37.Ir  who was another son of Scota / Scotia the daughter of Nectanbus the Pharaoh of Egypt and he was to be among the 5 Gaelic Milesian brothers who were to be drowned during the Gaelic expedition's second landing. He was to be the direct male line ancestor of the Irian Septs / Family Branches who initially had their territory in Ireland in the north - east of the Ulster Province after receiving the territory there from *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 become the Kings of Ulster / Ulaid and also intermittently gain the 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 set up a kingdom of their own in Southern Ulster to be known as Orghialla / Oriel. The Irians then became the Kings of Ulaid / Ulidia in the north - east of Ulster of the Dal nAraidi Sept who were to be descended from 90.Crond "Ba Drui," and the Dal Fiatach Sept who were descended from 90.Fogg Mac Dallain. They were to eventually only have control in the south of Co. Antrim and Co. Down there, as the Heremonian Ui Cobhthaigh Ui Conaire Muscraige Dal Riada Sept who were descended from 69.Conaire 11 the 111th King of Tara / Ireland and *80.Saraid another daughter of *80.Conn of the Hundred Battles, and therefore also of 37.Heremon, gained territory from them in the far - north - east of Co. Antrim. Other areas west of these two Counties were to be also eventually taken over by the Heremonian Ui Cobhthaigh Dal Cuinn "Northern" Ui Niaill Septs directly descended by that time from 88.Eogan and 88.Conall "Gulban," 2 of the 8 sons of 87.Niall of the Nine Hostages the 126th King of Tara / Ireland who was also descended from 80.Conn of the Hundred Battles, and therefore of 37.Heremon. Their main Irian Families came to be Mac Guinness, O Dunleavy and Mac Gowan in the Ulster Province, O Moore in Co.

       *35.Ithe, who was *36.Mil’s uncle ,was the first of the Gaels to discover Inish Ealga / Erie along with his son, *36.Lewy / Lughaidh and both were to become the ancestors of the Ithian and Darinian Tuaths and Septs of their own Celtic Gaelic Families after hearing of this "Far Western Isle were no serpents existed.” Although he was to be killed there in Ireland on the first expedition by the 3 Tuatha de Danann Kings who feared his expressions of exuberance over Ireland, he was to eventually become the direct ancestor of the aristocratic warrior Gaelic Ithian Families in the south of Ireland in Co. Cork in Southern Munster. They later also evolved into the Darinian Families in Southern Ireland and would absorb the many Erainn / Fir Bolg Septs located their, and evolve through one of their Ithian descendants *58.Lewy / Lughaidh who was to be the 113th King of Tara / Ireland into the aristocratic Ithian Corca Loigde Sept (The People of *58.Lughaidh.)
