I've been chewing on this topic for a while now. Basically what started my search was I kept getting dreams and visions of an Egyptian looking woman in a very Irish looking place, and was super confused. I started googling "Egyptain woman in Ireland", 'Egyptian Queen in Ireland", eventually I found Scota. And something seemed to click in my brain.

According to wikipedia and other folklore I have read, she is the Egyptian princess who the Scottish people have their lineage from, and also their namesake. She was the daughter of the Pharaoh Nectanebo, and apparently her and her husband Mil's sons populated Ireland.

Other stories say she was the daughter of the Pharaoh Cingris and married Niul, who was the son of a Babylonian man who traveled to Egypt after the collapse of the Tower of Babel. This is the Irish mythology version.

There apparently is a place in Ireland where Scota is buried.

I am very interested in her as she does seem to keep visiting me from time to time in my meditations and dreams. Any Egyptian or Irish scholars out there to weigh in on this?

Bumpity bump bump.....

Bumping again, I ordered a book online to give me some more insight, can't wait to read it.
On the other hand, no more dreams regarding her, but still am meditating.

Interesting - but possibly an 11th century lineage embellishment. Might still have some spiritual resonance though.
