FOUNDATION MYTHS

Once upon a time there was a king called Cruithne, son of Cing the Champion, who reigned for a hundred years. He had seven sons who were called Fib, Fidach, Floclaid (or Fotla), Fortrenn, Cat (or Caitt), Ce and Circenn.

These seven brothers divided Alba into seven portions of land each called after himself.

  • Fib ruled for twenty-four years over Fife and Kinross. Professor Watson suggests the name may be personal and the meaning obscure. In the Book of Deer the people of Fife are called the cu-sidhe - the fairy hounds.
  • Fidach ruled for forty years over Moray, and Ross. The name translates as ‘woodsman'.
  • Foltlaig or Folla ruled for thirty years over Atholl and Gowrie. Fotla was a goddess of Ireland and a name for that country. Thus Atholl means 'new, Ireland'
  • Fortria (Fortrenn) ruled for seventy years over Strathearn and Menteith. The name is thought to be the gaelicized form of Verturiones. Its meaning is obscure but may be connected to the River Forth. It might mean 'people of the slow winding river'.
  • Cat (Caitl) ruled for twelve years over Caithness and Sutherland. The name means 'cat people'.
  • Ce ruled for fifteen years over part of Aberdeenshire including Bennachie. Ce may survive in the name of Keith in Banffshire. An ancient Irish legend tells of certain Frigriu who eloped to Ireland with the daughter of a man from lona.  Frigriu is called the 'artificer of the Pictish plain of Ce' [a skilled craftsman or inventor.].
  • Cirech or Circenn ruled for sixty years over Angus and the Mearns. The name may mean 'crest-headed'. A battle was fought on the Plain of Circinn against the Scots. W.F. Skene mentions a certain Crus, son of Cirech, who was a chief warrrior of the Picts.

A little like the Jewish story of the rise of the Children of Israel, this was perhaps the Pictish way of accounting for their past. The story of Cruithne appears with variations in three of the texts of the Pictish King List, and the seven provinces are listed in a survey called De Situ Albanie attached to List One.

 Although the stones shown here are realistic representations of this Totem group in action, there is the possibility that the symbol used by this group was the Griffin and the headdress simply reflects the symbol.

The griffin, griffon, or gryphon (Greek: γρύφων, grýphōn, or γρύπων, grýpōn, early form γρύψ, grýps; Latin: gryphus) is a symbolic creature with the body, tail, and back legs of a lion; and the head and wings of an eagle; and an eagle's talons as its front feet.

The symbolism is viewed today as positive by those in power and many choose the griffon on their coat of arms or in insignia and crests, but the symbolism is actually negative. 

It is entirely masculine, the Eagle as the symbol of the empire builder has been paired and suppresses the Lion as the Intellect and Conscious self, what has been lost is all the feminine – the Subconscious has been obliterated.
