I read a lot this morning about the Merovingian line and I’ve got tons of questions but I’ll boil it down to a few. But first I have to review so
that I can keep it straight in my head.
Here are a few observations:
The Arcadia Languedoc connection
The Franks, and therefore the Merovingians, claimed to be descendants of the Visigoths.
The Visigoths are a branch of the Goths and believed to have been from Scandinavia.
The Visigoths first arrived on the scene when they invaded the Balkans Peninsula in the
late 3rd century. The Visigoths were Arian Catholics.
Ancient Arcadia was located in the Balkans, the middle of the Peloponnesus to be more precise.
One thing worth noting: in 681 The Bulgars win the war with the Byzantine Empire; the latter signs a peace treaty, which is considered as the
birth-date of Bulgaria.
“Peace 681”
Now oddly enough one crime both the Templars and the Cathars were accused of was homosexuality, specifically buggary.
Buggary:
It was as a result of this particular belief that the term "buggery" was coined (after the 'Bulgars', or 'Bougres', or followers of the
Bogomils) since if they were to give in to sexual temptation, this would at least ensure that no children resulted.
Interestingly enough the Bogomils were Bulgars aka Bulgarians! Odd connection considering the Visigoth history of the Languedoc area!
The Salian Franks’, a branch of the Franks, first king is considered to be Pharamond, but he could be a fictional character. So lets say the first
real king of the Franks is Clodio. Clodio’s wife is pregnant when she’s raped by a Quinotaur. Clodio’s wife gives birth to Merowig who the
Merovingian line is named for.
The idea of having sex or been raped by a sea creature is not that uncommon in classic mythology, especially in Greek Mythology. If we can trace the
Franks to the Visigoths to the Balkans Peninsula it’s not too far of a leap to assume that they heard some of the stories of Poseidon and his
conquest of human women and that it may have traveled with them. See www.pantheon.org for more into on Poseidon.
So would I be wrong to assume that the possible origins of the Merowig is just another adaptation of classical mythology in an attempt to show divine
right? If it specifically said a fish or fish like creature I personally would be inclined to agree with those who think it’s a hidden reference to
Jesus, the whole fish thing.
And who could forget Et in Arcadia Ego?
Knight Templar and Sigebert 4 and the Dualistic Nature of Jesus
The grave marker of princes Sigebert 4, Sigebert 5 and Bera 3 had an image of two knights on a horse.
One of many symbols of the Templars was two knights on one horse
The Knights Templar was founded in 1118ad and the earliest know time this symbol was used by the order was 1158ad. Sigberts tomb was created in 771ad,
386 years earlier!
According to the Templars the two knights on one horse represent the dualistic nature of the warrior/monk as well as the vow of poverty. But I think
it could represent the Dualist nature of Christ as believed by the Arian Catholics as well as the Cathars.
Now it’s also speculation that Sigebert IV (676-758) was also known as the 'Plant-Ard' - from whom Mr Plantard took his name!-: Sigebert V
(695-768), Bera III (715-771), Guillemon, Bera IV (755-836), Bera V (794-860), Hildéric I and finally Sigebert VI known as 'Ursus'. From this
lineage came the Blanchefort family who gave three centuries later a Templar Grand Master, Bertrand de Blanchefort.
From Wikipedia
Bertrand de Blanchefort or Blanquefort (c. 1109-January 2, 1169) was the sixth Grand Master of the Knights Templar, from 1156 until his
death.
Now he was the 6th Grand Master, check this out…
Peace 681: 6+8+1= 15 1+5=6
Rennes Church was completed in 771ad: 7+7+1=15 1+5=6
Death of Marie de Saint-Clair, grand master of the Priory of Sion and descendant of Henry de Saint-Clair, Baron of Rosslyn in Scotland, who
accompanied Godroi de Bouillon on the First Crusade - 1266 1+2+6+6=15 1=5=6
Jacques de Molay claims to have joined the Templars in 1266 1+2+6+6=15 1=5=6
See
en.wikipedia.org... two different theroies on when he joined 1266 or 1265
The Roman numerals LIXLIXL on one of the graves at Rennes:
L IX L IX L = 50, 9, 50, 9, 50 = 168 (if you add a 1 to the end of this number you get the Year of Marie's death as inscribed
on the headstone). Also if you rearrange the numerals you get 681, a number which revealed itself in the large manuscript, PAX 681 and 6+8+1=15
1+5=6
or
Finally the numbers can be written as LIX LI XL which translate into 59, 51, 40 which when added together yield a total of 150. 1+5+0=6
Lastly there are 6 dots in between the legs of the creature at the base of the headstone of Marie 6 dots in between the legs of the creature at the
base of the headstone.
Is this just a co-incidence or am I just looking to close to see the whole picture?
Interestingly; Marie Hautpoul de Blanchefort a descendant of Bertrand de Blanchefort is the women rumored to have given Antoine Bigou the scrolls that
Saunière found at Rennes!
From:
www.bibliotecapleyades.net...
In the Heraldry foundations of France, the lineage maps from Bertrand de Blanchefort, 4th Templar and Sion Order Grand Master, go directly
back to Meruvingian King Dagobert II, who was assassinated on December 23rd
This makes my head hurt!
Ok,
If Mary and Jesus came to the South of France, how do the Merovingians link to them if they came from Northern France?
Are we sure that PAX681 is to mean Peace? PAX could also mean:
1. A small flat tablet adorned with a sacred image that worshippers kiss when offered the kiss of peace. Are we missing something in Saunière’s
restoration of Rennes?
2. The kiss of peace.

Anyone have a thought as to what God’s Horse is all about?
What's with all the 6s?
And finally If Marie Hautpoul de Blanchefort gave these documents to her priest and not to another family memeber, could we surmise that she was the
last of the line directly related to Dagobert II?
That's all I can think of for now.....
