Apparently Poland was relatively isolated: "... While heavily hit regions such as the Mediterranean coast were densely interlinked with trade, the same was generally not true of Poland. ..."
And: "...In addition to Poland's relatively sparse population, a key factor is that King Casimir the Great wisely quarantined the Polish borders. ..."
That would make sense. In school system they taught us the mongols launched infected bodies into Genoa trade centers on black sea and it spread back to italy. So the flees not attracted to horses surprised me.
Another question
How did Poland not get infected? Quarantining the borders seems impossible back then. I know it was not very populous but Russia and Scandinava were not either so exactly how did they stay safe.
They didn't just pluck the idea out of the air Evidence for this theory were found A recent study suggests that the Lady of Cao, a spectacularly well-preserved mummy found in northern Peru in 2006, died of complications during pregnancy and childbirth. The warrior woman and leader, whose 1,600-year-old remains are now housed at El Brujo Archaeological Complex in La Libertad, is believed to have suffered from eclampsia, a condition that causes seizures during pregnancy.
According to Jordi Esteban Farre, a Spanish forensic doctor conducting research on the mummy, evidence from her arms and the tissue on her hands suggests that she withstood intense seizures. He further explained that the position in which she was found—with her wrists in perfect condition, even though her arms were oddly positioned—has a pathological significance, pointing to death by convulsion.
Though he recognizes that it is difficult to prove, Esteban Farre cites extensive evidence supporting his hypothesis. Eclampsia causes not only seizures, but also respiratory and circulatory problems in pregnant women. Although it is a relatively rare complication, even today an estimated 50,000 women die of eclampsia annually.
So, the Lady of Cao was pregnant—probably in her third trimester, judging by the stretch marks on her abdomen—and died during complications at birth. It is unclear if she successfully delivered or if the complications caused a stillbirth. Esteban Farre suggests that she died approximately 48 hours after the onset of labor, since her pelvic muscles and ligaments are stretched, as they would be after delivery.
One idea I read regards Astronomer 'Flandern's' theory of a destroyed planet, now the asteroid belt.
Perhaps a planet that was earth-like blew up and when it rains these objects it is debris thrown our way from the explosion. Fish etc are preserved in the cold vacuum, no problem.
Autumn, I see every correlation with Jacob, who was named Israel at Peniel, if you know your Bible. Peniel Heugh Iron Age fort is near Ancrum in the Borders, where the oldest ‘Roman’ road in the world, Deer Street, crosses the River Teviot, a tributary of the Tweed. The place where the ancient ford crosses the river is called JERDON-FIELD, or Jordan, which is Hebrew means ‘ford’. On the north side of the ford are the remains of the 12 Harestanes stone circle. The Israelites put put up 12 stones when they crossed the Jordan, on their way to Jerusalem after the Exodus. The ‘Reed Sea’ is the Solway Firth, where the Gypsies used to cross at low tide to bypass the Roman Wall at its western terminus, into Palestine, which means ‘the Land between the Walls’ (Pales/fences). I obviously have much more detail, like Perthshire being Parthia (Persia) etc., but I’m sure I could answer any questions you have about family connections or Masonic histories.
The fact that the plague spread to Europe was apparently due to gerbils spreading big time because of a temporarily changing climate and trade between Asia and Europe both by land and ship. Actually what I remember reading yesterday somewhere is that the Mongols wheren't hit by the plague that much because there were so many horses in their vicinity.
I was born in Belfast,that’s St. Brigid’s cross. It’s a pagan symbol,relative to the swastika & sun cross. (Pre Nazi abomination) You usually see it above doorways & it’s related to Imbolc. (Spring) Hope this helps. Cheers.

David Alan, do you see any correlation in the stories and timelines of Joseph, son of Jacob, and the stories of Ay? This is of great interest to me These concepts would perceive some Scottish clan descendants of the original 12 tribes. I am of the Fraser clan on my father's side, but unable to join any masonic organization with a library, as far as i know, because of my gender.
People of various ethnicities mingle and travel freely today far more so than at any point in known history, without having had their homelands conquered and forcibly integrated into a totalitarian theocracy.

Excellent and well thought-out comment
Fascinating story that I’d never heard about before – thank you! Will look into this further.
Hasn't anybody else noticed the similarities between Rongorongo and the strange script on one of the portraits of Gauguin's Tahitian wives?

This claim, "Together they had two daughters, called Isolda and Siora." in the above article, what is your source for this?
