Cbet nr. 3193, issued on 2012, July 26, announces the discovery of a new comet (discovery magnitude 18.0) by R. H. McNaught on CCD images obtained with the 0.5-m Uppsala Schmidt telescope at Siding Spring on July 23.7. The new comet has been designated P/2012 O3 (McNAUGHT).

Нехтан, король пиктов
Nechtan
Годы жизни: ?-ок. 732
Годы правления: ок. 706-724, 728-732
Отец: Даргарт мак Финнгуин
Мать: Дерили

Нехтан был сыном знатного ирландца Даргарта мак Финнгуина. Однако во многих летописях он фигурирует как Нехтан, сын Дерили. Возможно, у пиктов была в ходу матрилинейность. Братья Нехтана со стороны отца участвовали в ирландских междоусобицах, а братья по матери (Таран и Бриде) правили пиктами.

Беда Достопочтенный говорит, что отношения между пиктами и нортумбрийцами в это время были мирными, но "Анналы Ольстера" зафиксировали сражение между ними в 711 г. при Маг-Манонне. Пикты тогда потерпели поражение, и в бою погиб Фингуин, родственник короля.
В 713 г. Талорк, правитель Атолла, убил Киниода, брата Нехтана. Король поймал убийцу и бросил его в темницу, обеспечив себе десять лет спокойного царствования.
В начале VIII в. в Британии шла борьба между сторонниками ирландской церкви (ее духовный центр в Шотландии находился на острове Иона) и римской церкви. Эта борьба коснулась и Пиктии. В 717 г. Нехтан изгнал из королевства ирландских монахов. Тогда же аббат Кеолфрид послал к пиктам каменщиков и строителей для возведения новых церквей. Храмы в Росмарки, Раффусе и Рестеннете были посвящены апостолу Петру, святому покровителю Пиктии.
Очевидно, Нехтан был очень набожным человеком. В 724 г. он отрекся от престола в пользу Дреста и ушел в монастырь. Однако помимо Дреста существовали и другие претенденты на трон. Расправившись с конкурентами, Дрест засадил в тюрьму и самого Нехтана. (Возможно, он был просто переведен в другой монастырь, которым руководили сторонники Дреста). В 726 г. Дрест был свергнут Альпином, но вскоре Альпин был несколько раз побежден Онуистом. В 729 г. тот освободил Нехтана из заключения и вернул ему трон. Последние годы правления Нехтана прошли спокойно. Ему унаследовал Онуист.

............Гордон Кейсли из шотландского Абердина утверждает, что принц Уильям является прямым потомком "пьяницы Миддлтона", жившего в графстве Абердиншир в XVII веке.
Кейсли сделал вывод, что родословная принца ведет к Джону Миддлтону, сыну землевладельца из прихода Лутермьюир.
Дочь Миддлтона вышла замуж за предка прабабушки принца, королевы-матери Елизаветы.
Результаты своих генеалогических изысканий Кейсли опубликовал в журнале Leopard, выходящем на северо-востоке Шотландии.

При этом Кейсли не нашел никакой связи между Кейт Миддлтон и Джоном Миддлтоном из Абердиншира....

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nechtan
...................
In Irish mythology, Nechtan was the father and/or husband of Boann. He may be Nuada under another name, or his cult may have been replaced by that of Nuada. His inhabited the otherworldly Síd Nechtain, the mythological form of Cadbury Hill.^[1]
Only Nechtan and his three cup-bearers were permitted to visit the well of Segais, into which nine sacred hazel trees dropped their wisdom-bearing nuts. When Boann visited the well, it overflowed and chased her to the coast, forming the river Boyne.
The name 'Nechtan' is perhaps cognate with that of the Romano-British god Nodens or the Roman god Neptunus,^[2] and the Persian and Vedic gods sharing the name Apam Napat.[1]^{[dubious – discuss]} It may also be cognate to the Swedish mythological being Näcken, who dwells near wells and springs.

Nechtan or Nectan became a common Celtic name and a number of historical or legendary figures bear it. Nechtan was a frequent name for Pictish kings.^[3] The name MacNaughton derives from "MacNeachdainn", the son of Nechtan.....

.........Нуаду (др.-ирл. Nuada, Nuadu) — в мифологии ирландских кельтов король и предводитель богов Туата Де Дананн........

В Уэльсе почитался под именем Нудд. В римской Британии известно родственное божество Нодонс (Ноденс), связанное с культом вод и источников^[1]. Рядом атрибутов и связанных сюжетов (однорукость, утрата королевского титула, меч в качестве атрибута) он очень близок скандинавскому Тюру.
Этимологически имя «Нуаду» — причастие от глагола «давать» в сложении с прилагательным «новый» (*neuo-dont-s — «обновление дающий»)^[2].................

http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Нуаду

....."Nuada" redirects here. For the given name, see Nuada (given name).

In Irish mythology, Nuada or Nuadu (modern spelling: Nuadha), known by the epithet Airgetlám (modern spelling: Airgeatlámh, meaning "silver hand/arm"), was the first king of the Tuatha Dé Danann. He is cognate with the Gaulish and British god Nodens. His Welsh equivalent is Nudd or Lludd Llaw Eraint.

.......Nuada may be the same figure as Elcmar, and possibly Nechtan.^[6] Other characters of the same name include the later High Kings Nuadu Finn Fáil and Nuadu Necht, and Nuada, the maternal grandfather of Fionn mac Cumhaill. A rival to Conn of the Hundred Battles was Mug Nuadat ("Nuada's Slave"). The Delbhna, a people of early Ireland, had a branch called the Delbhna Nuadat who lived in County Roscommon. The present day town of Maynooth in County Kildare is named after Nuada (its Irish name is Maigh Nuad, meaning The plain of Nuada).....

......Название Nuada является родственным с тем из Ноденс , романо-британского божества, связанные с морем и исцеления которого отождествляют с римским Марсом , и с Nudd , валлийский мифологической фигурой. Вполне вероятно, что другой валлийский фигура, Ллуда Ллау Eraint (Ллуда Ордена Серебряной Длани), происходит от Nudd Eraint Ллау по аллитерационного ассимиляции . ^[7] ( норвежский бог Тюр другое божество отождествляется с Марсом, который потерял руку). ^[8...

Nuada's name is cognate with that of Nodens, a Romano-British deity associated with the sea and healing who was equated with the Roman Mars, and with Nudd, a Welsh mythological figure. It is likely that another Welsh figure, Lludd Llaw Eraint (Lludd of the Silver Hand), derives from Nudd Llaw Eraint by alliterative assimilation.^[7] (The Norse god Týr is another deity equated with Mars who lost a hand).[............

Nodens (Cthulhu Mythos)

Nodens (Lord of the Great Abyss or Nuada of the Silver Hand) is a fictional character in the Cthulhu Mythos. Based on the Celtic deity, Nodens, is the creation of H. P. Lovecraft and first appeared in his short story "The Strange High House in the Mist" (1926).

.... This article is about the Celtic deity. For the Elder God from the Cthulhu Mythos, see Nodens (Cthulhu Mythos).

Nodens (Nudens, Nodons) is a Celtic deity associated with healing, the sea, hunting and dogs. He was worshipped in ancient Britain, most notably in a temple complex at Lydney Park in Gloucestershire, and possibly also in Gaul. He is equated with the Roman gods Mars, Mercury, Neptune and Silvanus, and his name is cognate with that of the Irish mythological figure Nuada and the Welsh Nudd.^[1]^{[2].........

[show]Clan branches

Clan Macnaghten (sometimes spelt as MacNachten or MacNaughton) is a Scottish clan who claim descent from the eighth century Pictish king, Nechtan^{[disambiguation needed]}.^[3]

History

Origins of the clan

The earliest reference to the Clan Macnaghten is in connection with great Pictish rulers of Moray. The name 'Nechten' which means "pure" or "clear" was popular in the Pictish royal line. The originator of the clan is believed to have been "Nechtan Mor" who lived in the 10th Century.

13th century Castle in Loch Awe

By the time of the Renaissance, Clan Macnaghten had developed four distinct branches, or "septs," each recognized by the Crown with its own coat of arms. The senior line, MacNauchtan of Argyll, is assumed to descend from Sir Gilchrist MacNauchtan, who was granted land in Argyll in the early 13th century by Alexander III, King of Scotland. Parchments from 1247 and 1267 bearing the seal of Sir Gilchrist MacNauchtan are among the oldest existing charters in Scotland. They took up residence on an island in Loch Awe called Fraoch Eilean, which name they used as a battle cry. Also in this century the sept MacNaught broke away from the main clan and moved to Galloway and Ayrshire although they kept a strong connection with the main clan for protection.

14th century and Robert the Bruce

During the 14th Century the MacNaghtens were opposed to Robert the Bruce and his claim to the throne of Scotland; however, he did eventually become King Robert I of Scotland. As a result, the MacNaghtens forfeited many of their lands. Clan Macnaghten also fought against Robert the Bruce at the Battle of Dalrigh in 1306. The fortunes of the clan were restored, however, when King David II of Scotland granted them lands in Lewis. The MacNaughts were on Robert the Bruce's side because they lived in part of his lands.

16th century and Anglo Scottish Wars

In the sixteenth century during the Anglo-Scottish Wars the Clan Macnaghten led by Chief Alistair MacNaughten, who was knighted by King James IV of Scotland fought at the Battle of Flodden Field in 1513. However the Chief was killed during the course of the battle. The MacNaughtens did not put their faith in the Stewarts and opted more for the freedom that the presbyterian church offered.

17th century and Civil War

In the 17th century during the Civil War Chief John MacNaghten and his clan were Royalist supporters. The MacNaghtens had a strong force and joined King James VII's general the Viscount Dundee and is said to have taken a leading part when the Clan Macnaghten were victorious at the Battle of Killiecrankie in 1689. By this point the MacNaughts had a lot of septs such as MacKnight (which is the direct translation of the name into English), MacNeight, MacNett, MacNitt and MacNutt.

Early 17th century and Ulster Plantation

The MacNaughtens were one of the families brought in by the McDonnells of the Glens of Antrim. Black John MacNaughten (known locally as Shane Dhubh) became The Earl of Antrim's Chief agent. Black John was buried in the family burial ground at Bonamargy Friary near Ballycastle, County Antrim.^[3] The MacNaughts were also moved to Ulster.
