Dutch/Frisian Alternative History?

Hey there, I’ve been really interested in connecting with my ancestry, and so I’ve looked into the official history of the Netherlands. However I’m very aware that there is so much manipulation, cover ups and total whitewashing with history… there’s been many resets in the past that go under the gui...

Re: Best way to learn Frisian/Fryas?

Nice! Yeah I’ve started learning how to read Dutch with an app called LingQ, it’s great. The plan is to let it inform me enough to understand more Frisian and the OLB better.

Re: Too close to Christianity?

Interesting, yeah perhaps they did copy it from the OLB.

Re: How do they know this was spoken?

Yeah that’s true. No way to know I guess.

I appreciate all the work you do here! I really want it to be authentic!

Archaeological Evidence and Fryas Script found elsewhere

Are there any examples of artifacts with Fryas script on it or anything related to things in the OLB being physically found anywhere? If Fryas script was found elsewhere in the world that would definitely prove its authenticity, but if it hasn’t been found anywhere, that would definitely not help it...

Best way to learn Frisian/Fryas?

Reading the OLB it is odd to me how simple and easy it is to read. It partly makes me suspicious that it’s authentic, but when I see the Fryas word and how the translation was derived, I notice how rich it is. Is there a good source/website for learning Fryas to be able to understand it? I know mode...

How do they know this was spoken?

This exchange between Frana and the Magy is really riveting… but I wonder, how was this conversational exchange known if it was just the Magy, the Magys chieftains and Frana? Who would have been there to remember she said this? Some kind of psychic channeling or something? Things like this make it s...

Too close to Christianity?

Anybody else bothered by the very Christian type of language and philosophies within the OLB? A whole lot of talk about false gods, idolatry, idol-worshippers, etc, etc. Is there any Pre-Christian religion or spirituality that constantly negates other Gods and deities like this? Suspicious if you as...

Most Relevant Germanic Paganism for Frisians?

Asatru? Heathenism? Theodism? Irminism? Anglo-Saxon? Norse? Scandinavian? I know that the Frisians definitely were involved in this mythology (after the events of the OLB it seems). I’m wondering what anyone’s recommendations are for this? Netherlands is a weird place in that parts of it are Celtic ...

Re: Most related spiritual traditions to Frya tradition

Awesome! Thank you very much. I am a big fan and practitioner of Eastern teachings like that. They have far more useful applications for well being than Western religions. That’s awesome you live there! I want to visit Friesland sometime in my life. Being in Germany a couple times was a very resonan...
