And yes the ancient persians were caucasians.
Josephus identified the offspring of Magog as the Scythians, a name used in antiquity for peoples north of the Black Sea.[1] According to him, the Greeks called Scythia Magogia (Ant., bk. I, 6).

The Irish are Scythians, according to their own history they are the descendents of the biblical magog who is the father of all Scythians.

Also according to ancient Irish writings there was an island off the west cost of Ireland which extended northward. A huge flood sunk it and all the inhabitants in Ireland were also killed. Ireland was uninhabitable for 300 years according to the tradition and its survivors went walkabout for a bit (ie the mummies in china, also Celtic/Scythian) before returning back only to find others had settled the land....So according the Irish there was a mass exodus from this island into other parts of the world followed by a migration back to their homelands.
Modern archeologists only talk about the migration back, they never talk about the exodus out because then they would have to admit that Atlantis was a reality and a real memory!
What is the official explanation of red haired Celts building pyramids in china anyway?...I could do with a good laugh!

I have to say, the Bible does NOT speak of any Men existing before Adam. There were Sons of God, but not Sons of Men,

And that would be incorrect. Who did the sons of Adam marry and where did those people come from?

The Irish are absolutely not scythians, the Celtic presence in Ireland goes back nearly 5000 years and they can trace their ancestry to maritime beaker culture of iberia( modern portugual). The scythians were a horse centric culture from the pontic steppes. They were as far from a maritime people as you could get.
There were no scythians in the British isle until the Romans brought them as mounted cavalry, in the later phases of the empire.
Their footprint is pretty clear, the Arthurian legends are an amalgamation of native Celtic lore and sycthian mythology.
It was scythian custom to mark a warriors grave with his sword thrust into the grave mound. This is where the whole sword in the stone mythology comes from. That combined with the scythian notion of an ancestral sword that legitimizes the claim to kingship is the basis for the arthurian legends.

The whole Celtic race has been regarded as descended from Gomer, though history suggests modern Celts are descended from both Gomer and Magog. Archaeologists and ethnologists agree that the first Indo-European group to spread across Europe were Celts. The Irish Celts claim to be to the descendants of Magog, while the Welsh Celts claim to be to the descendants of Gomer. Irish chronicles, genealogies, plus an extensive number of manuscripts which have survived from ancient times, reveal their roots. The Irish were descendants of Scythians, also known as Magogians, which is strongly supported by etymological evidence. Archaeological evidence shows that both the Celts (from Gomer) and Scythians (from Magog) freely shared and mingled cultures at their earliest stages. Russian and eastern European excavations plainly reveal the blending of these two groups. Their geographical locations (what is now eastern Europe, southern Russia and Asia Minor) were referred to by the Greeks under the name of Celto-Scythae, which was populated by the Celts to the south and west, and the Scythians to the north. The ancient Greeks first called the northern peoples by the general name of Scythae; but when they became acquainted with the nations in the west, they began to call them by the different names of Celts, including the Celto-Scythae. Celts and Scythians were considered essentially the same peoples, based on geography, though many independent tribes of Celts and Scythians existed. The Latins called them "Galli," and the Romans referred to them as "Gauls." Later names used by Greeks were the Galatai or Galatae, Getae, Celtae and Keltoi. In the third century before Christ (about 280 B.C.), the Gauls invaded Rome and were ultimately repelled into Greece, where they migrated into the north-central part of Asia Minor (Anatolia). Known as fiercely independent peoples, they conquered the indigenous peoples of that region and established their own independent kingdom. The land became known as Galatia.
Ireland was not so much settled as it was invaded by numerous waves of Magogians that invaded the sacred isle over at least a thousand years' time. Each wave of these ancient ancestors of the Irish came and placed their unique brand on the land that would eventually become known as Ireland, displacing, but not erasing, the previous sons of Magog who had come to the sacred isle to seek out their destinies. "The history of Ireland is essentially a history of invasions. So, it was for good reason that the Irish monks who compiled the most ancient history of Ireland entitled their work Lebor Gabala Èrenn, “The Book of the Invasions of Ireland”. As we have seen, the vast majority of the invaders were Scythians or related peoples, all of whom had emigrated from Central Asia in ancient times to battle for control of “the island of the West”
