  • Temple village in Midlothian was established by the Knights Templar when they arrived in Scotland. I check out the brief history of the Knights Templars and their association with Scotland, Bannockburn and the Masons!
    I'll follow up another time at Rosslyn Chapel and Gilmerton Cove!
    Thanks to everyone!

    I lived in Temple for many years. The skull and crossbones, along with the "egg timer" signifies the passage of time, as does the winged figurehead on some headstones. The village only became known as Temple in the 1500s. Prior to this its name was Baile nan Trodach which translates from Scots Gaelic as Town of the Warriors. A set square and compass engraved on headstones denoted a mason. There is a similar carving above the front door of the old schoolhouse.

    I read today that it’s generally believed now that it was more than likely built soon after the end of the Knights Templar’s by the order that followed after them - the Knights Hospitallers - who had taken over the land.
    They probably don’t even know for sure, but apparently that’s what many historians reckon.
    Fascinating video
    Cheers.

      In the New World - the Skull and Crossbones represent the "Brotherhood of Death" who were two of the Big 4 Founders of the Johns Hopkins Medical Practice. Rex Deus!!! The Hebrew and Jewish cemeteries remain, but they have destroyed the cemeteries of the Founders and their families.

    We see the skull and crossbones in many old cemeteries up here. They were a warning to us all that we cannot avoid death and no matter what our status is in life, we are all the same. It can mean "Avoid death" or sometimes especially if the grave is outside the main cemetery area that they were excommunicated. Another site I did not know about though thanks for sharing.

      Not improbable that Templars were
      ex communicado due to not taking
      the Eucharist.
      My own take on the skull symbol
      is that it’s a veiled reference to
      Golgotha,and the bones
      in the crux position
      refer to the cross.

      I worked in the cemetery industry and "Burial Practices" were changed from the original practice of Seth putting seeds in the mouth of Adam to destroying the land of God with dead bodies and carved stones. It because a "business" after the Knights Templar helped the Jesuits to win the wars in the New World. Natural living becomes a supernatural creation where ever the Crusaders land.

    This is quite an incredible place. I visited this Templar Church Cemetery 3 years ago with some friends and have many of the same pictures as you have shown. Shortly after there was some sort of new discovery unearthed here.
    Another cool place is Aberfoyle and the grave of The Reverend Robert Kirk just adjacent to a Fairy Hill where he was sad to have been taken away by the fairies.
    He also wrote “The Secret Commonwealth of Elves, Fairies and Fauna”. Quite a story so it is!

    Templars were the first to fly the Jolly Roger after their dissolution in 1307 under the name of Reconstituted Order of Christ and Supreme Order of Christ. Supposedly, they went looking for the remains of Jackes de Molay, the last Grandmaster of the Templar Knights and found only his skull and femurs giving rise to the Jolly Roger or Skull and Crossbones.

I live in the "Monumental City" of their creation. "Skull and Crossbones" aka "the brotherhood of death" were two of the "Big Four Founders" of the Johns Hopkins Medical Practice that hosted the Covid con of the 21st Century - the "New" god is "Science."

      The word "Bible" is actually a Greek word. Jerusalem was colonized by the Jesuit American Bible Society in the 1880s when the Greek Reformed Bible arrived. After the colonization, they returned to the "Monumental City" and raised the Greek Gods it's center and hosted "Death to the old Gods" and "YOUR Father, God" lost all of his power to religion and government oversight. In 2020, they added the "Brotherhood of Death" medical industry to rule as the New God that is controlling life on Earth. Rex Deus is claiming to have stolen a bloodline from Egypt and taken it back to Jerusalem for the "Crusade" of the ONE bloodline rule.

    Irish for 'free' is 'saor'
    Irish for 'mason' is 'saor'
    The Cailleach was known to be veiled. the mother of the architects.
    free mason symbols stone and apron
    the veiled cailleach dropped stones from her apron and scattered them across the Boyne Valley.
    Gobán Saor was both mythological and historical.
    Govan Stones and high crosses are quite interesting in Scotland.
    Gobán Saor is said to be responsible for high crosses and round towers.
    There is 0 proof that round towers were built with monestaries. they dont even match. Might have been pagan. one theory states they fertilised a considerable radius around their base. this is an alchemical gig though and I am not versed. they certainly were not a 'safe space' from our invaders! spray alcohol on door, set a light and you'll see everybody inside jump out from smoke inhalation. bell tower? they were added later!

    I was born in the "New World" The Jesuit set sail to create it on November 22, 1633 and 330 years later sacrificed a Roman Catholic President to further their interest in the World. The Knights Templar arrived three years after the coup with the Jesuit Army General Washington and after the Religious war of 1812, they won the Battle of Baltimore and created my birthplace as their "Monumental City."
    In 2020 - the Knights (Brotherhood of Death) created Johns Hopkins became the World "Experts" of health and "The Father of" modern medicine and modern vaccine replaced the word of God. Be safe my friend!
    The Queen just died in Scotland and America has it's first Roman Catholic President since 1963.
    The word "Bible" is actually Greek and came from Jerusalem where the Greek Christians resided - Jesus attempted to warn people, but they use him now as a why to show that you shouldn't speak out against the "order" or they will crux you too.

    Skulls and crossbones in Scotland, in graveyards usually means died of the plague. Zero to do with anything else. It's very, very normal, depending how the crossbones are laid. Soemtimes it means something else. Templar graves, normally featured a sword, as you would imagine. Viking coffins were hog bag, if they were 'Christianised'. I know examples of these close to Edinburgh. Cool you post videos, but get your history right before doing so. The more people that post history wrong then it starts becoming the reality, and skews history.

    There's no historical evidence that the Knights Templar fought at Bannockburn. However, it is thought that Scotland was a safe place for them and they did settle here, after Friday, 13th, 1314, when most of their sect were massacred. There forever Friday the 13th was ominous. The Templars wrere accused of heresy, homosexuality and other charges (bascially as they owned alot of money and the King of France was in debt to them and couldn't pay, so invented charges against them). Some did escape on ships with their wealth. Many question was the Holy Grail within that 'wealth'. Hell , I could do a better job than you telling it, maybe I should.

      In 1790, America became a safe place for them - because the "Society of Jesus" hosted a coup with their Jesuit Army General Washington and allowed them free reign over the nation. In 1826, "Religious Freedom was legislated for a "SECT" that proclaimed themselves to be "Jewish" .... the "Sect" were Templar and the "Jewish" is the Ancient Canaanite Religion.
