Guest guest Posted July 18, 2002 Report Share Posted July 18, 2002 Renee, I've read reports long ago --originally from about 200 years ago--about the black folks on one of the Carribean Islands speaking Gaelic, too. Yes, they were also Irish--it's acuurrate--Cromwell and other Brit kings hated the Irish with such venom that they were sent as slaves to the islands owned by the British as slaves... By the way--the Cherokees are doing pretty well as a tribe these days--both tribes of them. They are the most populous and I think perhaps the richest in tthe US. Neqrly everyone in Oklahoma is partialy native Ameircan BTW. We all intermarried in the beginning of the 20th century or else slightly earlier to get in on the Indian land before the rest of the white-only couples got to it. And there are no reservations here, Nadia, in Oklahoma. The reservations are everywhere else...in other states. Best Wishes, Denise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That may be true however the statement was that Santeria developed by the mix of Celt's and whoever when in fact it developed on a much larger scale and not by direct association with the Celt's. If you read the history in the links that I sent, you will see what I am talking about. Renee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
