“Why did Dan remain in ships?” or “Dan abode in ships.” Judges 5:17 KJV In the song of Deborah and Barak, it asks: When we examine the text of the book of Judges this fits perfectly. They arrived in several waves of migrations roughly between 1200 and 800 BC. The early history of Ireland tells us of a people called the Tuatha De Danaan, which literally means the ‘people of Dan’. However it was not just limited to rivers, but also towns, cities, settlements and even entire nations would bare the name of Dan. Just take a look at the names of the rivers of Europe, we have the Dan-ube, the Dan-ieper, the Dan-iester, the Dan-au, the Daci and Davi, the Dan, the Don, the U-Don, the Eri-don, and the thousands of others Dans and Dons of ancient and early geography. Thus words like Dan, Din, Don, Dun, Den, or Dn, correspond to the name of Dan. In Hebrew there are no vowels, so the name Dan is written DN, or its Hebrew equivalent. The Children of Dan continued this practice throughout their migrations and we can find a trail of names all throughout Europe. And they called the name of the city Dan, after the name of Dan their father, who was born unto Israel: howbeit the name of the city was Laish at the first.” Judges 18:28-29 KJV “And they built a city, and dwelt therein. And they went up and pitched in Kirjath-jearim, in Judah: wherefore they called that place Mahaneh-dan unto this day: behold, it is behind Kirjath-jearim.” Judges 18:11-12 KJVĪfter they had smitten the people of Laish with the sword and burned the city, they called the new city Dan: “And there went from thence of the family of the Danites, out of Zorah and out of Eshtaol, six hundred men appointed with weapons of war. On their way, they camped in a place in Judah, which the Danites called Mahaneh-dan, meaning “Camp of Dan”: During the Judges period, 600 Danites sought a new territory in the north of Canaan. We even see this demonstrated in the Old Testament, Dan originally lived in a territory next to Ephraim, Benjamin, Judah and the Philistines. “Dan shall be a serpent by the way, an adder in the path…” Genesis 49:17 KJV In other words they would name the places they traveled and settled in after their patriarch, Dan. In the same manner Dan’s descendants would do this by leaving signs and way-marks throughout their travels and the migration routes they followed. The snake, as it slithers along the ground, it leaves a trail or a track. Jacob prophesied concerning the tribe of Dan that wherever his descendants were to go they would leave a serpent’s path. Interesting that a place would bare the name of Dan. The island Sardinia was even named after them. The truth no doubt got founded a bit and these were certainly the Israelite tribe of Dan, who was the son of Belhah. He was a legendary leader and according to the legend he was the son of a “Belas”, King of Egypt. They were said to have descended from a “Danaus the Egyptian”. They settled in Archaea, the northern part of the Pelopones Penisula of Greece, so they were also called “Archeans”. – But there is also another group that came with them called the “Danaans” or “Danoi”. – Calchol is known for setting up the city Thebes and introducing the Hebrew/Phoenician alphabet. – Darda is known for settling the region that he named Dardania and later his descendants set up Troy. This was the beginning of all Adamic nations would gradually being replaced by Israelites. They were led by Zarah’s descendants Darda and Calchol.
“The Aliens were driven from the country, and the most outstanding and active among them banded together and, as some say, were cast ashore in Greece and certain other regions, their leaders were notable men, chief among them being Danaus and Cadmus.” Diodorus Sicilus, Bibliotheca Historica 40.3 So many of the Greek were in fact Israelites, even though they didn’t realize. He also divided the people into twelve tribes” Diodorus Sicilus, Bibliotheca Historica 40.3īut also mentioned is that a vast number instead of following Moses rallied together and sailed to Greece. He instituted the holy rites and ceremonies with which they worship God and made laws for the methodical government of the state. “The leader of this colony was one Moses, a very wise and valiant man, who, after he had possessed himself of the country, amongst other cities, built that now most famous city, Jerusalem, and the temple there, which is so greatly revered among them. This shows that are records of the 12 tribes even in the Greek classics.

In the early Greek classical literature Diodorus Siculus mentions a Moses leading his people the Israelites out of Egypt during the Exodus into a region called Judea.
