The
Horned Hat according to me represents the "The Rowan Wood"
and is Gothic Hat.
2. Horn Hat :
According
to Lieutenant Colonel Laurence Austine Waddell :
The
Phoenician Origin of Britons, Scots, & Anglo-Saxons (1924 -
1st. edition) :
The
Horned Hat represents Goat.

The Goat was the especially sacred animal of Indara, as recorded
in the Sumerian and Vedic texts, some of which are cited in the
heading; and Indara himself was, as therein cited, called by the
Sumerians "The He-Goat"; and Thor and his Goths are also
called "He-Goats" in the Gothic Eddas, wherein Thor is
called "Sig-Father," the identical name by which Bel also
is called.' i.e., by the Sumerian
Goat name.
The title Sig or "the horned," the root of Sigga "Goat,"!
appears to have given its name to the peaked Hittite or "Phrygian
" cap Sag (seen in that figure) as well as to its wearers,
and thus explains the horned head-dress of the Hitto-Sumerians,
Early Britons and Goths. It had the synonym of Gud which seems to
be the source of both "Goat" and "Goth." Cud
or Gut appear to be appliedto the Goat itself. Hence the ruling
Hittite titles of "Sag" and "Gud" and "Gut"
would explain why the Goths or Guti were called by the Greco-Romans
both Geta and Sakai or Sacae-the latter being obviously the source
of "Sax-on," and of the royal Indo-Aryan clan of Sakya
to which Buddha belonged, and the latter Hittite tribe of "Sagas,"
who recovered Palestine from Akenaten, and whose name is defined
as "people named Kas-ia" i.e., obviously the Kasi or Kassi.
Similarly, the Uz Goat name, which appears to have become Uku when
applied to the people. seems to be the source of the name "Achai-oi"
or Achai-ans for the leading tribe of early Aryans in Greece, as
well as the Greek aix and Sanskrit aja for "goat".
The Goat appears thus to me to have been selected for this totem
position by the Early Aryans or Sumerians or Goths, partly on account
of its name resembling rebus-wise the tribal name of "Goth"
partly because of the Early Aryans having been presumably Goat-herds
in the mountains before their adoption of the settled life and their
invention of Agriculture and Husbandry, and partly because the bearded
and semi-human appearance of the Goat's head offered a strikingly
masculine yet inoffensive effigy for their institution of the Fatherhood
stage of Society, in opposition and in contrast to the primeval
promiscuous Matriarchy of the Chaldee aborigines of the Mother-Son
cult, with its malignant and devouring demonist totems of the Serpent,
Bull-Calf, Vulture or Raven, and Wolf of Van or Fen (the Wolf exchanging
also with the ravening Lion), and demanding bloody and even human
sacrifices. And the fusion of these four totems is the origin of
the Dragon.
Thus
we find that the antagonism of the Goat (or "Unicorn")
to the Lion (or Wolf or Dragon) is figured freely on Sumerian and
Hitto-Phoenician seals from the earliest period, and also on Early
Briton monuments and coins (see Figs. 59, 60), and that Indara himself
is sometimes represented as a Goat or Deer (Dara) as the slayer
or tamer of the demonist Lion, as is recorded also in the Vedic
hymn which says : "Indra for the Goat [Goths] did to death
the Lion".
Yet
so little is our modern heraldry aware of the facts of origin, meaning
and function of the "Unicorn" that it now represents that
invincible Aryan totem of the Sun Cross-and of la or Jove and Thor
and of Heaven, and of our ancestral Aryan originators of the World's
Civilization-in the form of a one-horned horse, but significantly
bearded like a Goat and bound in chains and set alongside of its
vanquished foe of Civilization, which is supposed to have been its
victor-the ravening Lion totem of the demonist Chaldee aborigines!
Whereas in the old Hittite seals, it is the Lion which wears the
collar and chain (see Fig. 59L.), whilst the Unicorn or Goat is
the victor through Indara and his archangel.
The
Goat, "the swift-footed one of the mountains of sunrise"
is represented by the Sumerians as the Sun itself and a form of
the Sun-god, though less frequently so than is the winged Sun or
Sun-Hawk or Phoenix-the horse only appearing in the very latest
period. In the Vedic hymns also, the Sun is sometimes called "the
Goat," with the epithet of "The One Step," presumably
from its ability to traverse the heavens to the supplicant in "one
step" :-
"The
Ruddy Sun . . . the One-Step Goat,
By his strength, he possessed Heaven and Earth."!
This
"One Step Goat" in the Vedas is in especial conflict and
contact with the Dragon of the Deep, just as we have seen was the
Resurrecting Sun, the vanquisher of the Serpent-Dragon of the Deep
and Death.
Rig Ved Mandala 7 Sukta 18 Mantra 17 :
In
this capacity and in its struggle with the Lion or Wolf of Death,
and as the rebus for "Goth" the Goat is freely represented
on Hitto-Sumerian seals and on Phoenician and Greco-Phoenician coins,
in association with the Sun Cross and the protecting Archangel Tas;
see Fig. 59 and also later. And significantly it is similarly figured
on Early Briton prehistoric monuments, pre-Christian Crosses, and
Ancient Briton coins, and also in association with the Sun Cross,
and often the protecting Archangel Tas or Tasc, see Fig. 60, and
further examples later.
This
picture of a "Goat" (in Old English Goot and Gote, Eddic
Gothic Geit, Anglo-S. Gat and Scots Gait) in these scenes appears
clearly to be used as a rebus picture-sign for "Goth"
(properly Got or Goti ) or Getce, Sumerian Guti, Kud or Khat; just
as the battle-axe picture-sign was used for their tribal title of
"Khat-ti" or "Hitt-ite," The hieroglyphic practice
of using rebus pictures for proper names continued popular in Greco-Phoenician
and Greek coins in Asia Minor down to the Roman period.
This
now explains also the references to the sacred Goat and Indra in
the Vedic hymns. e.g., "The lively Goat goeth straightway bleating
to the place dear to Indra. We now discover that the Sumerians and
Hitto-Phoenicians or Early Goths called themselves, or their leading
clans, by the names of "Goat," or by names which were
more or less identical in sound with their name for Goat, and so
made it easy for the picture of the Goat to represent rebuswise
their title of "Goth".
This
sacred character of the Goat as the totem animal of the Sumerians
and Goths, and the source of the legend of the Unicorn, in its victory
over the Lion, and as the hallowed animal of Indara or Andrew, now
explains the fact of the Goat being still the mascot of the Welsh
Cyrnri, and also the frequency of St. Andrew's Cross in the pre-Christian
and early Christian monuments in Wales," and in parts of England.
And the figures of the Goat in association with St. Andrew's Cross
and other solar symbols on the Early Briton coins, and especially
in the tin coins of Cornwall (and sometimes with the name Inara
and "Ando") and in forms identical with those existing
on Hitto-Phoenician sacred seals and Phcenician coins, affords still
further conclusive evidence of the former widespread prevalence
of the cult of Indara or "Andrew" in Early Britain, and
of the Barat Catti Phoenician origin of the Britons and Scots.
