"The Gingaskin are the original Scots, not Scottish"

SUMMARY"The Gingaskin are the original Scots, not Scottish" (Tito, Nov 3, 2026; from memory). LENS; OPEN. RECORD hooks: (1) Latin "Scoti" first meant the Irish/Gaels (300s–400s AD), not people of Scotland; the name moved later. (2) Scotland's own origin legend (Scotichronicon, 1440s; Irish Lebor Gabála) says the Scots descend from Scota, daughter of an Egyptian pharaoh, which ties to the Egypt lead (P185–P187). (3) The Declaration of Arbroath (1320) says the Scots came from "Greater Scythia" by way of Spain. (4) At the court of James IV, Edinburgh 1507–08, the "Tournament of the Wild Knight and the Black Lady": the king played the "Wild Knight," and a Black woman of the court was the "Black Lady." The wild man and the Moor at the Scottish throne (ties to P189). TO DO: confirm whether "Scott" (or variants) appears among Gingaskin/Eastern Shore free families in the 1813 Northampton deeds and the 1800s censuses; Tito to share the family memory behind this.
