The Ancient People Who Burned Their Culture to the Ground
At a site in Spain, archaeologists piece together the last days of Tartessos, an advanced society that vanished 2,500 years ago.

Extracts:
Artifacts from the site include bronze cauldrons and braziers, highly decorated bone and ceramic plates, part of a marble sculpture imported from Greece, and other items from as far away as Macedonia. Surviving structures include the remains of a drainage system and a stone stairway that was built using a lime mortar technique previously thought to have originated with the Romans at a later date.
Tartessos was the first Iberian culture known to have traded across the Mediterranean, as far as present-day Israel, Greece, and Egypt, and its wealth was famous throughout the region. ... may have been the inspiration for the mythical Atlantis. .... Ephorus, described Tartessos as prosperous, 'with much tin carried by river, as well as gold and copper.' The wealth, advanced technology, and reach of Tartessos are also mentioned in the writings of other sources from the era. 'Their sophistication was remarkable,' says Freund.
Why Tartessos vanished remains a mystery. ...^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3. Did Queen Victoria Believe in British-Israel?
Quote: # Queen Victoria would not have been amused. As the empress of a vast proportion of the world's population she is reported to have been deeply impressed by the belief that Britain was the home of the lost ten tribes. Proof of this divine intervention was provided by juggling independent Hebrew words to construct the word British and by the presence of a smattering of Phoenician place names near the ancient tin mines of Cornwall. #

4. GI Joe cf. Joseph?
# Joe was a common term for a common man at least back during the Depression so they called each other Joe generically. G.I. Joe came from that.

5. Druids Known as Semnothei. i.e. People of Simeon?
# Some say that the study of philosophy originated with the barbarians. In that among the Persians there existed the Magi, and among the Babylonians or Assyrians the Chaldaei, among the Indians the Gymnosophistae, and among the Celts and Gauls men who were called druids and semnothei, as Aristotle, relates in his book on magic, and Sotion in the twenty-third book of his Succession of Philosophers.#- Diogenes Laertius, Vitae, Introduction, Section 1.
Semnothei in Greek connotes "People of Simeon!"
New Evidence indicates that
Simeon moved east of the Jordan to Cities of Levi and was associated with them and the future Druids!

6. King Zedekiah lost all his sons.
The House of David still existed!
20% of religious Jews descended from David?
Another 20% are from the Tribe of Levi (Cohens and Levis together).
2-Kings (NASB) 25:
6 Then they captured the king and brought him up to the king of Babylon at Riblah, and he [c]passed sentence on him. 7 And they slaughtered the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, then put out Zedekiah's eyes and bound him with bronze shackles, and brought him to Babylon.
Zedekiah however was only about the 17th King of Judah after Rehoboam. Several of the others had numerous wives and they all would have borne sons and these sons too would have had many children. each and every one was a legitimate continuation of the House of David. The seed of David did not disappear with Zedekiah!
For some reason advocates of the Theory of Tea Tephi want to believe it did.
What is the theological reason for this?
Scripture says otherwise:
Jeremiah (NASB) 33:
19 And the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah, saying, 20 'This is what the LORD says: "If you can break My covenant for the day and My covenant for the night, so that day and night do not occur at their proper time, 21 then My covenant with David My servant may also be broken, so that he will not have a son to reign on his throne, and with the Levitical priests, My ministers. 22 As the heavenly lights cannot be counted, and the sand of the sea cannot be measured, so I will multiply the descendants of My servant David and the Levites who serve Me."'

9. Ancient Mediterraneans in Scandinavia; Bronze Age Trade
https://novoscriptorium.com/2019/02/23/ancient-mediterraneans-in-scandinavia-bronze-age-trade/
Extracts:
Bronze was imported to Scandinavia from the East Mediterranean. This trading started about 1750 BC. At just the same time amber from the Baltic started to appear in Mycenaean and Minoan graves. This gives evidence of active trading between the Mediterranean and Scandinavia. The sudden appearance of picture of large ships cut into bedrock surfaces and blocks at about the same time suggests that this trading took place via visitors arriving by ships. The size of the ships seems to preclude a stepwise transfer via the river systems between the Black Sea and the Baltic, but rather a travel over the Atlantic Sea. This calls for sea-worthy ships and knowledge in geography. In the Bronze Age, only the Mycenaean, Minoan and Phoenician cultures had such ships and such skill. Reaching this far north by 1750 BC in ships following the Atlantic coast of Europe implies that those people may as well have reached much further to the south and the west than previously assumed.
In the Aegean and Near East, the Bronze Age began 3300-3000 years BC. For the production of bronze, both cupper and tin were needed. There were a lot of cupper to be found in the East Mediterranean region, not least on Cyprus. However, there was a shortage of tin. Therefore, tin or rather cassiterite ore had to be imported. Cassiterite ore was to be found in Great Britain, northwestern Iberia and southwest France. In Great Britain, the Bronze Age began around 2100 BC. This corresponds well with the proposed onset of tin exploitation in Cornwall (Penhallurick, 1986; Haustein et al., 2010). Trading abroad is likely to have commenced at the same time. Tin from Cornwall has been identified in Mycenaean-Minoan bronze objects. By about 1750 years BC something happened in Southern Scandinavia.
Scandinavia and Central Europe suddenly stepped into the Bronze Age at about 1750 years BC. The bronze objects were imported from the Mediterranean area (Ling et al., 2014). At just the same time amber started to occur in masses in Mycenaean and Minoan graves. The provenience of that amber is shown to be the south Baltic coasts. This means that we have evidence of a simultaneous import/export exchange between Scandinavia and the Eastern Mediterranean region (Morner & Lind, 2010).
At the same time, pictures of huge ships started to be carved into the bedrock and into big blocks in Scandinavia. There are thousands of such rock carvings found and recorded. Throughout the Scandinavian Bronze Age, from 1750 to 500 BC, there is an evolutionary trend of those pictures recorded, which may even serve as chronological
tool (Kaul, 2000; Ling, 2008).
It is a well-known fact that the Sun was worshiped as a central deity in Scandinavia during the Bronze Age (Montelius, 1911; Almgren, 1927; Brondsted, 1938). This is evident from extensive pictures in rock-carvings and ornaments on bronze objects, including the famous Sun chariot found in 1902 in the Danish peat bog at Trundholm.
In recent years, we have been able to identify the occurrence of archaeoastronomical observatories in southeast Sweden (Lind, 1996, 2004; Lind & Morner, 2010; Morner & Lind, 2013; Morner, 2015). .... We are dealing with stone monuments arranged as huge calendars recording the sunrise and sunset at Summer and Winter solstice and at the Spring and Autumn equinoxes, besides the daily motions of the Sun (i.e. sundials).
This is the case with 'the boy with the amber necklace', buried at Boscombe Down, 5 km SE of Stonehenge, and dated at 1550 BC (Evans et al., 2006; Evans, 2010). The isotopic composition of his milk teeth is indicative of a childhood in the Mediterranean.
The 90 amber beads in his necklace have a provenance from the south Baltic coasts. This provides evidence of long-distance migration and trading between the East Mediterranean and Britain as well as between Britain and Scandinavia.
Some of the depicted ships found in Sweden are so similar to others found in Greece that we have to say that they are 'almost identical' (cf. Morner & Lind, 2010). This is illustrated in the figure below for pictures of more naturalistic types (A) as well as quite schematic types (B).

10. Eastern Mediterranean influence and possible Colonization of Prehistoric Iberia [Spain and Portugal]
https://novoscriptorium.com/2019/10/25/eastern-mediterranean-influence-and-possible-colonization-of-prehistoric-iberia/
Extracts:
This change in funerary rituals ... expanded almost simultaneously throughout different regions of the Eastern Mediterranean basin such as Lebanon, Syria, Anatolia, Greece or Crete, and exceptionally in the Western Mediterranean in the Southeast of the Iberian Peninsula...
.... decorated whitewashed walls with geometric motifs in domestic spaces in the settlement of La Almoloya (Murcia), .... the Middle Minoan Period in Crete.
..... relatively frequent discovery of large storage vessels in levels belonging to the Late Bronze Age in the South of the Iberian Peninsula
Furthermore, the high amount of painted Mycenaean kraters with chariot scenes in tombs from Cyprus is also worth highlighting.... This suggests that the fashion for representing chariots was brought to the Iberian Peninsula by Cypriot merchants and crewmen.
From the 9th century BC onwards, the establishment of groups of eastern people in the Iberian Peninsula, particularly in Eastern Andalusia, but also in the southwest and along the Atlantic coast, resulted in the foundation of colonies, transforming these territories into areas of colonial encounters, and leading to the formation of continuing relations between geographically and historically separate communities.

Any prophetic implications?
If Canada kicks Trudeau and his Liberal party and their coalition partners out of power in the forthcoming federal election perhaps we could have AUKCANUS
PM Statement on AUKUS Partnership: 15 September 2021
Extract:
I'm delighted to join President Biden and Prime Minister Morrison to announce that the United Kingdom, Australia and the United States are creating a new trilateral defence partnership, known as AUKUS, with the aim of working hand-in-glove to preserve security and stability in the Indo-Pacific.
We are opening a new chapter in our friendship, and the first task of this partnership will be to help Australia acquire a fleet of nuclear-powered submarines, emphasising of course that the submarines in question will be powered by nuclear reactors, not armed with nuclear weapons, and our work will be fully in line with our non-proliferation obligations.
This will be one of the most complex and technically demanding projects in the world, lasting for decades and requiring the most advanced technology.
It will draw on the expertise that the UK has acquired over generations, dating back to the launch of the Royal Navy's first nuclear submarine over 60 years ago.
We will have a new opportunity to reinforce Britain,s place at the leading edge of science and technology, strengthening our national expertise.
And perhaps most significantly, the UK, Australia and the US will be joined even more closely together.
