Keswick Museum
Keswick Museum and Art Gallery in the Fitz Park was built at the turn of the century for ‘the inhabitants of Keswick and the visitors thereto’. The grand opening of the museum was on Easter Monday April 11th 1898, and it has remained unchanged ever since, apart from the provision of electric lighting and heating. Its Victorian style, and the range of exhibits make it a fascinating place to visit for all the family. The picture gallery was added later through the energies of Canon Rawnsley. It opened in July 1907.The local history collection stretches back to Roman times, and includes such items as the famous 700 year old cat, a penny farthing cycle, and a man trap. One of the prime exhibits is a set of musical stones (below), variously termed the stone dulcimer, the rock harmonicon or the geological piano. It has travelled to London where performances were given to Queen Victoria. its a good Museum to visit I enjoyed it.

윈더미어에서 멀지 않은 곳에는 영국의 스톤헨지라 불리는 원형 석조물이 있다. 이 석조물은 기원전 3천 년 전에 만들어진 것으로 추정되는 선사시대 유적이다. 38개의 돌을 약 3미터 간격으로 세워 놓았다. 지름이 약 30m의 원 모양 안에는 더 작은 원모양의 돌들이 놓여 있다. 이 석조물은 종교적인 목적이나 의식에 사용됐을 것으로 추정하고 있을 뿐 정확한 내용은 밝혀지지 않고 있다. 호수 지역은 빛이 사라지면 또 다른 풍경으로 변한다. 쓸쓸하고 황량하며 거친 불모지. 그래서 이곳 사람들 또한 이 호수 지역을 황무지로 부르곤 했다.

We are most grateful to the International Commission on Stratigraphy (ICS) and the International Union of Geological Sciences (IUGS) for declaring the Meghalayan Age - a New Phase in Earth's History. It took great courage to do that. We also thank the British Natural History Museum and the University College London for unveiling the 10000 year old Cheddar Man with unprecedented accuracy. We thank Dr. Spencer Wells and other scientists who worked on the Genographic Project of National Geographic. We are indebted to Dr. Satyakam Phukan for his great book Ecossais : The Khasi Saga We are eternally thankful to Gene D Matlock who wrote about the Khasis in his books. We cannot forget the fantastic Anthropological work of British writer Leutenant Colonel Lawrence Austine Waddell, the Scottish genius, who without the benefits of DNA tests, Internet and Google wrote his famous books. We thank Google, YouTube and the Internet for the tremendous access to the greatest writers and books available.

Castlerigg Stone Circles, Keswick, Lake District Britain built by the Khasi or Cassi tribe Part 1
The Astounding Origin and mind blowing History of the mysterious and most ancient Khasis. WHO ARE THE KHASI-JAINTIA AND WHAT IS THEIR AMAZING UNBELIEVABLE HERITAGE ??. READ And BE PREPARED TO BE STUNNED. HISTORY HAS TO BE REWRITTIEN. The DNA tests on 92 LIVING KHASIS by the Genographic Project of National Geographic and subsequently confirmed by other DNA tests prove their ancient age - 57000 years. The DNA tests should be extended to many more Khasis to confirm their real age as Khasis believe they arrived about 120000 years ago at present day Khasi-Jaintia Hills, Meghalaya at the foothills of the Himalayas. They also spread out to modern day Vietnam, China, Japan, Taiwan, Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar etc. Visit the Heritage of Japan website where Researcher Aileen Kawagoe names the Waar (War) of Jaintia Hills, Meghalaya India as one of the Genetic sources of Early Japanese. The name Japan comes from the Khasi phrase 'Ai Ja Pa' meaning 'Give me rice Father'. This gradually shortened to 'Ja Pa' meaning 'Rice Father'. Other Khasi stories tell of 'Pan Ja' meaning 'Ask for Rice' or 'Ja Pan' which literally translates into 'Rice Ask' as the origin of the name Japan. From the Khasi-Jaintia Hills, the early settlers landed by boat at the place where stands now the most ancient Kashi ma Shrine and Kashima city so named after Khasi Ma or Khasi Mei or Mei Khasi meaning Khasi Mother. Like their Khasi-Jaintia ancestors who believed that they descended from Heaven, the earliest Japanese Fudoki believed that the Kashima/Khasi Ma Celestial God descended from Heaven. The Khasi have a Sun Goddess 'Ka Sngi.' The Japanese too have a Sun Goddess - Amaterasu Omikami. The Khasis have a rooster as their most important symbol. The Rooster is an auspicious symbol for Japanese Shinto. Khasis look at a 'River' & say 'Ka Wah'. 'River' in Japanese is 'Kawa' but pronounced 'ka wah'. The Khasis never had any written history just oral history. Many secrets were passed down orally among a select few. Now with DNA technology, it is time to tell these ancient stories which would have been laughed at earlier. There are many many more ancient secrets among the Khasis and Jaintias of Meghalaya State, lying at the foothills of the Himalayas. Remember, they arrived where they are at least 57000 years ago. To put that into context, the Hindu civilization is just 5000 years old. Amanda Huang in her writing 'DNA profiles of Han Taiwanese' also links the Taiwanese with the Khasi Austro-Asiatic people. From the Khasi Hills, after arriving out of Africa, about 57000 - 120000 years ago, the Khasis spread all over the world. They set up the Sumerian, Babylonian & Phoenician kingdoms. Their traces are found in so many places. Herodotus, the ancient Greek historian called Britain Cassiteriades or Kassiterides, the Khasi Tin Islands. They were all over Britain but were called different names. They mined Tin, Gold, Silver and grew wheat. Their ancient name for Britain was Ka Dew Lynnong Pyrdain or The Isle of Pyrdain meaning in Khasi ‘The Island of Wisdom’. They also called Britain 'Bilat' after the White Limestone Cliffs of Dover.Julius Caesar names a Cassi tribe which fought against the Romans under their Chief Cassi-Vellaunus. Caesar landed around the Wantsum or Wansum Channel and crossed the River Thames at the Kew ford. 'Wan Sum' in Khasi means 'Come and bathe'. The Kew or Quay Hoh Gardens are named after the Cassi or Khasi harvest chant Hoh Kew or Hoi Kew. Kew means wheat in Khasi & the Cassi tribe is known to have grown wheat in Britain. The Khasi / Cassi name for the third largest city of Roman Britain was Hangne-ruh-la-mih-Um, later shortened to Uerulamium and then to Verulamium. In Khasi it meant 'Here too water has come out'. 'La Mih Um' means 'Water has come out'. Present day Colchester city was known in pre-Roman times as Ca-mulo-don-um. 'Ka mluh don um' is a Khasi phrase meaning 'There is salt in the water'. The old name of Thames in Khasi is Them Sum. The area around the Thames was then a low-lying area covered in water, much more than now. 'Them' in Khasi means low-lying. 'Them Sum' means 'low-lying area for bathing'. It gradually became Thames. Ask any Khasi. He will say that Cheddar Man looks like a typical rural Khasi villager. THE PHOENICIAN TIN MINES OF CASSITERIDES OR CORNWALL - Tin which was used in many parts of the then world was partly obtained from the Phoenician Tin-mines of Ancient Britain. The Ictis or Mictis name was applied by the Greeks to the Phoenician tinport at St. Michael's Mount in Cornwall, on the Sea of Icht. This Western Tin-land was The country of the Kussaia or Kassi people, It thus would account for the name Cassi-terides; and Kassi is sometimes spelt with u in cuneiform script. The Greek word for Tin was Kassiteros because it was the Phoenicians otherwise known as the Kassi who were famous for mining Tin. In Britain, they were broadly known as the Keltic tribes.

We thank Google, YouTube and the Internet for the tremendous access to the greatest writers and books available. We suggest further DNA tests on 10 000 Khasis of various clans and areas, 10 000 British and Europeans and 10 000 people of other cultures in the world to confirm this link between the over 57000 years old Khasis and other people's of the world. After all who else was there so long ago. No one except Neanderthals, early human species but not our Homo Sapiens, those who remained in Africa and the Munda who preceded the Khasis by about 9000 years. This exhaustive research has been conducted by combining Genetics, Anthropology, History, Geology, Linguistics, Topography, Archaeology , Culture and ancient oral history. Before coming to the Castlerigg Stone Circles near Keswick, we attended the Eucharist at St. Martin in the Fields and Matins at Westminster Abbey to pray for the success of our historical Anthropological work. We also visited St. Mary's Community Church at Ambleside, Lake District though it was closed.
Keswick, Cumbria, England 1973
A family day out in Keswick.
There is considerable evidence of prehistoric occupation of the Keswick area, but the first recorded mention of the town dates from the 13th century, when Edward I of England granted a charter for Keswick's market, which has maintained a continuous 700-year existence. In Tudor times the town was an important mining area, and from the 18th century onwards it has increasingly been known as a holiday centre; tourism has been its principal industry for more than 150 years. Its features include the Moot Hall; a modern theatre, the Theatre by the Lake; one of Britain's oldest surviving cinemas, the Alhambra; and the Keswick Museum and Art Gallery in the town's largest open space, Fitz Park. Among the town's annual events is the Keswick Convention, an Evangelical gathering attracting visitors from many countries.
