Send Gift Baskets to Dublin, Ireland

The area of Dublin Bay has been inhabited by humans since prehistoric times, fish traps discovered from excavations during the construction of the Convention Centre Dublin indicate human habitation as far back as 6,000 years ago while further traps were also discovered closer to the old settlement of the city of Dublin on the south quays near St. James’s Gate which also indicate mesolithic human activity.

In a seminal article in the journal Pna, Ofer Bar-Hillel and Yoni Re’u (2017) argued that Ptolemy’s claim would not be reliable. Had he done more research into historical documents from the era – particularly inscriptions from Ireland – they could have ruled out any such settlement. In their study, they looked at known Irish.

It is a city founded by the Christian religion, over five centuries ago, leaving us a natural breeding ground for groups of people who believe this religion will prevail. In 2015 there were an estimated million Catholics and one million Protestants in Dublin. It is now thought the Viking settlement of about 841 was preceded by a Christian ecclesiastical settlement known as Duibhlinn, from which Dyflin took its name. Beginning in the 9th and 10th centuries, two settlements later became the major branches of Old Norse Christianity: Hiodulstaneyar and Bernicia. The Dubhlinn was a large pool on the River Liffey in Dublin, Ireland, near the shore of D’Olier St John’s when ships used to moor. In the period between the 14th and 17th centuries, Dublin was a collection of separate and more or less independent townships. It was in the year 2799 of the Christian Era (3306 AD) that a massive invasion of Ultramar by the forces of Zadkiel defeated half his people, including Mac Ogder. This also brought about the decline of Ultramar as a whole. But it’s unclear if twenty thousand men or twenty million were involved in this battle.
