Abram's origins and calling[edit]
Terah, the tenth in descent from Noah, begat three sons, Abram (later called Abraham), Nahor and Haran. Haran begat Lot (who was thus Abram's nephew), and died in his native city, Ur of the Chaldees. Abram married Sarai, who was barren. Terah, with Abram, Sarai, and Lot, then departed for Canaan, but settled in a place named Haran, where Terah died at the age of 205. (Genesis 11:27–32) The LORD had told Abram to leave his country and kindred and go to a land that he would show him, and promised to make of him a great nation, bless him, make his name great, bless them that bless him, and curse "him" that curses him. (Genesis 12:1–3) Abram was 75 years old when he left Haran with his wife Sarai, his nephew Lot, and the substance and souls that they had acquired, and traveled to Shechem in Canaan. (Genesis 12:4–6)

The ten lost tribes refers to the ten of the twelve tribes of ancient Israel that were deported from the Kingdom of Israel after it was conquered by Assyria in about 722 BCE.[1] Claims of descent from the lost tribes have been proposed in relation to many groups, and some religions espouse a millenarian view that the tribes will return.
The motif of "the lost tribes" first appeared in the post-biblical era, and was subsequently elaborated upon in a number of apocryphal texts. In the 7th and 8th centuries CE, the return of the lost tribes was associated with the concept of the coming of the messiah. [2] The recorded history is at variance with the legends elaborated in apocryphal texts.
DNA studies have found no evidence of any lost tribes. DNA studies have refuted any connection between modern-day ethnic Jews and most of the ethnic groups discussed below as possible Lost Tribe candidates, with the exception of the Lemba of southeastern Africa, for whom only a Y-chromosome connection to a few ethnic Jews has been confirmed.

THE SOLAR CROSS:
The Cross in a Circle Symbol
The traditional meaning of the cross in the circle symbol was that the four equal lines pointed from the center to the spirits of the north, east, south, and west and a representation of the Sacred Four elements, the great primary forces of Fire, Air, Water and Earth.

just checking the Greek alphabet for the root of the word cross
which looks like not "tau" the "cross" ( that's why the expression "Tau cross" I guess) as one might expect, but "ro" which looks like a "P"
a stick with a wheel on the top
side note:
ray as in the rays on mythra's mitered head
root word Ra
The Cross and the Crucifixion
Ancient Greek word "cross": σταυρός. To pronounce it, say "stauros."

hey thanks for that Hans
what I am noticing is that English is somewhat descendant from an Aryan base which the so called Teutonic languages are also from
somewhat in agreement with the work of LA WADDEL I mentioned earlier, and also the theory that there is much of the story I'm investigating encoded in the very English language itself
ps
also did you see the flood/ arc tablet article posted earlier making the original arK story a non semitic one?
Im curious, if I may: what do you think of that?
