Part-7: About the name
"THEODOSIUS"
Part-7. About the name "THEODOSIUS"
By POLAT KAYA
This paper is about
the name THEODOSIUS, that is, a Byzantium name.
Contrary to
previous disinformation, the name "Byzantium" is actually
sourced from
Turkish and is a distortion of the Turkish phrase
"Beyistanum"
or "Beyistan öyüm".
"A number of
Byzantium emperors used this name in their title." [52]
THEODOSIUS I The
Great (379-395) is one such emperor.
Graham Speake
writes the following account about the king THEODOSIUS [53]:
"Flavius
Theososius, son of Valentinian's general Theodosius, was
appointed in the
east by GRATIAN after the death of VALENS, with the
primary task of
dealing with the GOTHS. His solution was the rapid
extension of 'federate'
status, whereby whole tribes were settled
within the empire.
He owes his title 'the Great' to his rigid
adherence to the
Nicene Christian creed: he deposed Arian bishops,
punished heretics
severely, and, influenced by AMBROSE, banned all
pagan worship."
The Roman emperor
GRATIAN who appointed him was also an ardent
Christian who
incurred resentment through his suppression of pagan
institutions. [54]
Thus it is clear
that they had turned against the ancient Turanian
Oguz people and
their religion which the Greeks themselves followed
before their new
religion. Since the Greeks acquired political power
after Alexander the
Great, they exersized it ruthlessly in persecuting
the so-called
"pagan" native Tur/Turk peoples all over Anatolia and
other regions of
the Greek domain of hegemonia. The name GRATIAN is a
restructured and
distorted form of the Turkish expression "GARATI HAN"
or "GARA
HANTI" (GARA HAN IDI) meaning "The lord (king) was Black"
referring to his
belief in "KARA-HAN", that is, the "evil" God.
The following
citing also verifies this intolerance of the so-called
"pagan"
religion and peoples. Phillip Sherrard and The editors of the
TIME-LIFE Books
write the following" [55]:
"Actually, it
is impossible to specify any one year as the birth date
of Byzantium.
Constantine's designation of the city as his capital
did not at once
inaugurate a Byzantine empire as distinct from the
Roman. No doubt the
seeds of transformation were present in
Constantine's
conversion to Christianity and in his founding of a new
capital on the
Bosporus; and no doubt Constantine himself possessed an
almost mystical
apprehention of the immense change he was initiating.
But in other
respects the first phase of Byzantine history—from 330 to
the death of
Anastasius I in 518—was little more than an attempt to
strengthen and
defend the old Roman Empire against the forces that
threatened its
existence.
Christianity,
meanwhile, was spreading its influence as the state
suppressed paganism
with increasing harshness."
The "immense
change" that King Constantine was initiating was the
policy to wipe out
the ancient Turanian Sky-God Oguz religion while
looting all of its
ancient traditions and culture.
The
"Greek" name THEODOSIUS is described as having the meaning of: "A
gift of God"
or "God given". [56].
The name
THEODOSIUS, when rearranged letter-by-letter as
"T-OOS-HEDIUSI"
where the bogus letter U is Y (Ye, Ya, or Yu in
Turkish) and read
phonetically as in Turkish, is found to be the
restructured and
disguised form of the Turkish expression "aTa OOS
HEDIYESI" (Ata
Oguz Hediyesi) meaning "The Gift of Father OGUZ", that
is, "The Gift
of God". Thus we have an exact correspondence that is
not due to
coincidence. In this anagram used by the ancient Greeks,
Turkish ATA written
as "T" alone means "father", OOS (having
variations of: OS,
AUS, EUS, OUS, US, UZ, GUZ, OGOZ, OGUZ, OKUS, and
others) is the
ancient name of Sky-God OGUZ, and Turkish "HEDIYESI"
means "gift
of". Thus, these Turkish words, when combined into one
compound name and
after rearranging the letters, the new word readily
becomes the Greek
"THEODOSIUS" meaning "gift of God".
With this analysis,
we have shown clearly that the source of the Greek
name
"THEODOSIUS" was Turkish rather than Greek. In this case again we
are observing, in
an undisputable way, a "stolen, restructured,
repainted and
resold car" case as were the names of the other king
names of Byzantium
that we analysed earlier.
Since it is very
related to the reign of the Byzantium king THEODOSIUS
I the Great, I want
to bring to the attention of the reader an
important name,
that is the name of SERAPIS which was the
personification of
the ancient Turanian Sky-God OGUZ.
SERAPIS is defined
as: "[Latin, Greek, Sarapis, Serapis.] A god in
whom were united
the attributes of OSIRIS and APIS." [57]
APIS is defined as:
"Sacred bull worshipped by the ancient
Egyptians."
[58]
The sacred bull
APIS was nothing but the representation of Turkish
OGUZ whose logo was
the BULL ("OKUZ" in Turkish). Oguz was the most
ancient Turkish
religious concept of the creator Sky-Father-God, the
Sun-God and the
Moon-God as we have noted earlier.
The name OSIRIS is
the Hellenized version of the ancient Masar/Misir
(Egypt) God"
OSIR" (Turkish:"OS ER", "AS ER", "US-ER",
"OGUZ ER)
meaning
"True-Man", "Peerless-Man", "Wise-Man", that is,
the Sky-God
"OGUZ-MAN".
Western sources representing this very ancient Turanian
Sky-God of ancient
Masar as the "God of dead" or the "underworld" are
spreading
disinformation. The creator Sky-God AS-ER was always
regarded as being
ONE (BIR) Supreme God of the universe whose "light
and heat"
radiating and seeing "eye" was the SUN (KUN) and His not
seeing (blind) eye
was the MOON (AY). This ONE-MAN God was known with
many different names
describing different attributes of the same god.
Ancient Masarians
knew this very clearly.
In ancient Turanian
OGUZ religion, Oguz the Sun-God, Oguz the Moon-God
and Oguz the
Sky-Father-God were religiously combined into ONE entity,
but yet separate also.
That is why SERAPIS consisted of OSIRIS and
APIS. Of cource,
the goddess ISIS representing the Moon, and also
being the sister
and wife of OSIRIS was also united with the same
supreme God OSIR.
All of these
Turanian religious concepts were looted and also killed
as the civilization
of ancient Turanians - by the ancient Byzantine
kings. In this
regard, the following excerpt from Encyclopaedia
Brittanica is very
enlightening: [59]
"SERAPIS, a
famous Graeco-Egyptian god. The statue of Serapis in the
Serapeum of
Alexandria was of purely Greek type and workmanship -a
Hades or Pluto
enthroned with a basket or corn measure on his head,
Cerberus at his
feet, and (apparently) a serpent. It was proclaimed
as the
anthropomorphic equivalent of a much revered and highly popular
Egyptian
beast-divinity, the dead Apis, assimilated to OSIRIS. The
Greek figure
probably had little effect on the native ideas, but it is
likely that it
served as a useful link between the two religions. The
god of Alexandria
soon won an important place in the Greek world. The
anthropomorphic
Isis and Horus were easily rendered in Greek style,
and Anubis was
prepared for by Cerberus. The worship of Serapis along
with Isis, Horus
and Anubis spread far and wide, reached Rome, and
ultimately became
one of the leading cults of the west. The
destruction in A.D.
385 of the Serapeum of Alexandria, and of the
famous idol within
it, after the decree of Theodosius, marked the
death agony of
paganism throughout the empire.
It is assumed above
that the name Serapis (so written in later Greek
and in Latin, in
earlier Greek SARAPIS) is derived from the Egyptian
USERHAPI—as it were
OSIRIS-APIS—the name of the bull APIS, dead and,
like all the
blessed dead, assimilated to the Osiris king of the
underworld. There
is no doubt that Serapis was before long identified
with Userhapi; the
identification appears clearly in a bilingual
inscription of the
time of Ptolemy Philopator (221-205 B.C.), and
frequently later.
It has, however, been contended by an eminent
authority (Wilcken,
Archiv fuur Papyrusforschung, iii, 249) that the
parallel occurence
of the names SERAPIS and OSORAPIS (USERHAPI) points
to an independent
origin for the former. But doublets, e. g.,
Petisis-Petesis,
are common in Graecism of Egyptian names."
This excerpt
clearly indicates that the final killer of the ancient
Turkish Oguz
religion was this Byzantine king THEODOSIUS I the Great.
Destroying the
ancient Turanian religion earned him the title of
"GREAT".
Yet he did not mind using Turkish based descriptions as his
title because he
did not have an authentic language that could
provide such titles
for him and other Byzantium kings.
Evidently, the icon
"OKUZ" of the Sky-God OGUZ was kept in the house
called
"SERAPEUM" in Alexandria. The name SERAPEUM when rearranged as
"AS-ER-P-EUM"
is a restructured Turkish expression "AS ER APA ÖYÜM"
meaning " I am
the house of Peerless Father Man" which refers to the
house where the
monument was kept. On the other hand, it is the
restructured form
of the Turkish expression "AS ER APAYUM" meaning "I
Am Peerless-Man
Father", thus referring to God himself. Thus the
Greeks knew the
utmost flexibility of the Turkish language and
utilized it
extensively for their cabalistic purposes.
Evidently the
destruction of the Serapeum by the decree of Theodosius
marked the end of
the so-called "paganism" throughout the empire.
SARAPIS, when
rearranged letter-by-letter as "SARI-PAS", is from
Turkish expression
"SARI BASh" meaning "yellow head" which refers to
both the Sun and the
Moon in the ancient Masar religion. It also
refers to
"blond headed" Turkish peoples.
Additionally,
SARAPIS is an anagram of "AS-IR-PAS" from Turkish
expression "AS
ER BASh" meaning "Top Peerless Man" which refers to
both the
Sky-Father-God OGUZ as being the creator of the universe, and
also to the
"head" of man which is also a "creator'.
And finally, this
Greek and/or Latin name "SARAPIS" has another
demonization aspect
aimed at AS-ER. When the name is rearranged as
"AS-AR-PIS",
it is the Turkish expression "AS ER PIS" meaning "the
Peerlees-Man is
filthy, foul, obscene, mean, vile, and other degrading
adjectives"
referring to the God ASER.
Of course AS-ER
(OS-ER) also appears in the form of "AESIR" in the
western literature
representing the "the chief gods of the Teutonic
pantheon. "The
Aesir included: Odin or Voden, Thor or Donar, TYR or
TIU, Balder,
Forseti, Heimdall, and other gods." [60]
>From this, the
reader will recognize Turkish ASER, OD-HAN (Günes) and
TUR names readily.
The name "DONAR" is composed of Turkish words "OD"
meaning
"fire" and "NAR" meaning the fruit "pomegranate"
referring to
its redness. Of
course, in this context, DONAR is nothing but the
Turkish "NAR
OD" or "AL OD" referring to the red Sun.
>From all this,
one gets the clear understanding that ancient Greeks
knew and spoke
Turkish, as Turkish was a world language at that time.
But the Greeks were
in the process of "nation" building from a state
of roaming
wanderers as compared to already established native
Tur/Turk peoples of
Turanians all over the continents. With the
Greeks' newly
invented religion, which was usurped and reconstructed
from the very
ancient sky-God Oguz religion, they were intolerant of
the native peoples
and their Turkish language. By usurping Turkish
words and phrases,
and restructuring and disguising them, they had
built a language
for themselves. At the same time, they continued to
annihilate the
native Tur/Turk peoples and their civilization in
Anatolia as the
Semitic Akkadians had done to the Sumerian people and
their language in
Mesopotamia. By the guidance and intrigue of the
Greek and Semitic
religious groups who had filled the cities and
organizations of
ancient Masar/Misir, so-called "Egypt", these
non-Turanians achieved
the collapse of the civilization of the ancient
Tur/Turk
Masar/Misir peoples. By way of deception, brute force and
even genocide, most
of the Turanian civilization was wiped out one
after the other.
