    Default Why Is The Pope’s Mitre Shaped Like A Fish?

    Did you ever wonder why the Pope’s mitre looks like the head of a fish?

    What are the origins of this ceremonial hat and what does it truly represent?

    What is the origin of the Pope’s hat?



    Dagon, the fish-god of the Philistines and Babylonians, wore a fish hat that is still seen today with Roman Catholic Church’s pope and bishops.

    According to Ruben Joseph’s book entitled, Why Are The Young People Leaving The Church, “The miter is derived directly from the miters of the ancient pagan fish-god dagon and the goddess Cybele. The papal miter represents the head of Dagon with an open mouth, which is the reason for the pointed shape and split top.”

    The story the church wants you to believe is provided by a PDF entitled, “The Bishop’s Vestments” while an online version of this explanation can be found here.

    What the church’s explanation fails to describe is the actual fish eye on the side of the mitre. Perhaps this is an ember of charcoal from the tongues of fire?

    Probably not, it’s a fish eye.

    The book Nineveh and Babylon by Austen Henry Layard stated:In their veneration and worship of Dagon, the high priest of paganism would actually put on a garment that had been created from a huge fish! The head of the fish formed a mitre above that of the old man, while its scaly, fan-like tail fell as a cloak behind, leaving the human limbs and feet exposed.

    The Wine of Babylon stated:


    The most prominent form of worship in Babylon was dedicated to Dagon, later known as Ichthys, or the fish. In Chaldean times, the head of the church was the representative of Dagon, he was considered to be infallible, and was addressed as ‘Your Holiness’. Nations subdued by Babylon had to kiss the ring and slipper of the Babylonian god-king. The same powers and the same titles are claimed to this day by the Dalai Lama of Buddhism, and the Pope. Moreover, the vestments of paganism, the fish mitre and robes of the priests of Dagon are worn by the Catholic bishops, cardinals and popes.

    Ea Enki, is a God of Sumerian (Enki) and Babylonian (Ea) mythology. In Babylonian mythology, Ea was a water god who was half man, half fish hybrid. In Greek mythology, Ea was known as Oannes. By any name, this fish-god can be traced back to the genetic manipulation of man by Anunnaki, as evidenced by Zecharia Sitchen’s work. It is believed that, in the daytime, this deity would emerge from the water and was responsible for teaching art, science and writing to the human race.

    Berossus, a 3rd century Babylonian priest once wrote,

    At first they led a somewhat wretched existence and lived without rule after the manner of beasts. But, in the first year after the flood appeared an animal endowed with human reason, named Oannes, who rose from out of the Erythian Sea, at the point where it borders Babylonia. He had the whole body of a fish, but above his fish’s head he had another head which was that of a man, and human feet emerged from beneath his fish’s tail. He had a human voice, and an image of him is preserved unto this day. He passed the day in the midst of men without taking food; he taught them the use of letters, sciences and arts of all kinds. He taught them to construct cities, to found temples, to compile laws, and explained to them the principles of geometrical knowledge. He made them distinguish the seeds of the earth, and showed them how to collect the fruits; in short he instructed them in everything which could tend to soften human manners and humanize their laws. From that time nothing material has been added by way of improvement to his instructions. And when the sun set, this being Oannes, retired again into the sea, for he was amphibious.


    In the book Revelation, H. A. Ironside stated:The chief priests wore miters shaped like the head of fish, in honor of Dagon, the fish-god, the lord of life – another form of the Tammuz mystery, as developed among Israel’s old enemies, the Philistines. When the chief priest was established in Rome, he took the title Pontifex Maximus, which was imprinted on his miter. When Julius Caesar (who like all young Roman of good family, was an initiate) had become the head of State, he was elected Pontifex Maximus, and this title was held henceforth by all of the Roman emperors down to Constantine the Great, who was, at one and the same time, head of the church and high priest of the heathen! The title was afterward conferred upon the bishops of Rome and is today borne by the pope, who is thus declared to be, not the successor of the fisherman-apostle Peter, but the direct successor of the high priest of the Babylonian mysteries and the servant of the fish-god Dagon, for whom he wears, like his idolatrous predecessor, the fisherman’s ring.

    Who is Dagon?

    In the bible, Dagon dates back to around the 3rd millennium, B.C., long before the birth of Jesus Christ and was first mentioned in Judges 16:23, where the Philistines offered Dagon a great sacrifice after their idol allegedly delivered Samson to them.

    Then the lords of the Philistines gathered them together for to offer a great sacrifice unto Dagon their god, and to rejoice: for they said, Our god hath delivered Samson our enemy into our hand.

    Judges 16:23

    This is just one of the many ritualistic sacrifices that we see in the bible and is no different than any modern day sacrifice, such as 9/11 or any given war.

    Many consider the Canaanites to be part of the Philistines who worshiped worshiped Baal, Astarte and Dagon. These were some of the early sun-worshiping cultures that have led to many of the metaphors we see in modern religion, e.g. God’s son/sun.

    In Mali, there is a tribe called the Dogons, whose legends from their heritage were used by the Egyptians and subsequent dynasties. The Dogon knew of constellations and alignments that we didn’t ‘discover’ until many years later, such as Sirius B.

    According to Dogon legend, the Nommos arrived from the Sirius star system in a vessel along with fire and thunder, or as we would say today, in a UFO. The Nommos were part fish and part man and could live on both land and in the sea. They are also referred to as “Masters of the Water”, “the Monitors”, and “the Teachers”.

    Perhaps frogs, dolphins and whales were placed here by the Nommos? Even the mystery of mermaids may originate from this premise.

    Throughout mythology, we see fish-like people, mermaids and mermen, such as Poseidon or Neptune. An excerpt from Ancient Pagan and Modern Christian Symbolism stated:

    According to Egyptian mythology, when the judges found Osiris [Nimrod] guilty of corrupting the religion of Adam and cut up his body, they threw the parts into the Nile. It was said that a fish ate one of these chunks and became transformed. Later, Isis [Semiramis] was fishing along the river bank when she fished up a half-man, half-fish. This sea creature was Dagon, the reincarnated Nimrod. And Dagon is the representation of Nimrod (of ancient Babylon) resurrecting out of the ocean depths as a half-man, half-fish.According to Egyptian mythology, when the judges found Osiris [Nimrod] guilty of corrupting the religion of Adam and cut up his body, they threw the parts into the Nile.

    Why do we eat fish on Friday?

    Why do we see fish frys on Friday? Did you ever wonder why practicing Catholics abstain from eating fish on all days except Friday?
    Why do we see fish frys on Friday? Did you ever wonder why practicing Catholics abstain from eating fish on all days except Friday?

    It is not because of the phonetics of Fry-Day. The origin of Friday come s from Freya’s Day. Freya (Fria) is the Teutonic goddess of love, beauty, and fecundity (prolific procreation) and is identified with the Norse god, Freya.

    The following is provided by the History of Origin of Fish Symbol:

    fish friday freya pope miterIn Greece the Greek word “delphos” meant both fish and womb. The word is derived from the location of the ancient Oracle at Delphi who worshipped the original fish goddess, Themis. The later fish Goddess, Aphrodite Salacia, was worshipped by her followers on her sacred day, Friday. They ate fish and engaged in orgies. From her name comes the English word “salacious” which means lustful or obscene. Also from her name comes the name of our fourth month, April. In later centuries, the Christian church adsorbed this tradition by requiring the faithful to eat fish on Friday – a tradition that was only recently abandoned.

    According to The Catholic Encyclopedia: An International Work of Reference on the Constitution, Doctrine, Discipline, and History of the Catholic Church:

    As to the ritual of his worship… we only know from ancient writers that, for religious reasons, most of the Syrian peoples abstained from eating fish, a practice that one is naturally inclined to connect with the worship of a fish-god.

    More fish food for thought

    In the Revelation chapter of the bible it states the beast shall rise out of the sea:

    And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.
    Revelation 13:1

    Perhaps this is responsible for the term “Holy See” (Holy Sea)?

    It is certainly no coincidence that the entire planet abides by Maritime Admiralty Law, which is the law of the sea (Holy See).



    As for the pope’s miter, it’s a fish hat and its origin is tied into mythology, ufology, paganism and sun worshiping.

    Dagon was no fish God! Dagon was Dionysus and his name is pure Greek deriving from the Linear-B
 rendering of Di-wo-ni-so-jo.

    Dionysus, was a Mycenean general who ruled the Hittites as King Tudhaliya III, and the Phillistines as Dagon! (their leader and first king) Ηe who took with him an army
 of Athenian Pelasgians in about 1400 BC and founded a colony when he
 campaigned in Syria-Palestine. The land may have been a gift from Amenhotep III for Dionysus assisting him to power.

    All the Tudhaliya kings of the Hittites were of Greek origin. Dionysus or Tauro Kranos as was his epithet, ruled the Hittites as king Tudhaliya III who has a god
cult associated with him in Asia-Minor. Deukalion who shared his wined cult
 with Dionysus was the Hittite king Tudhaliya II who shared the same god cult
 as his grandson. Deukalions bastard son Amphyction was the Hittite king
 Arnuvanda I ruling in eixile.

    According to Hittite records a God cult existed around their king Tudhaliya
II or III which continued to be practiced until about 1250 BC when Tudhalia
IV was in power. Tudhalia III was deposed as Hittite king by a coup in 1380
BC and this corresponds exactly with the time according to the traditional
chronology that Dionysus returned to Greece and drove Penthus the king of
Thebes mad.

    According to the Bacchae and other sources Dionysus conquered all of Asia
Minor including Lydia, Phrygia, Syria, and India, which historically were
all lands conquered by the Hittites under Tudhaliya III and his successor
Suppililuma during Tudhaliyas reign.

    Tudhaliya is renderd as Tarkan and in the bible
it is rendered Thurgal the king of Nations who ruled at the time of Abraham
in 1390 BC. Turkish Tar-kan corresponds exactly to the Greek epithet for Dionysus
 which was Ta(u)r(o)-K(r)an-(os).

    And the word Paki has the same root as the name "Bacteria" and the name
 "Bacchae".

    The entire region was named after the followers of Dionysus who conquered it
 in 1400 BC and since the Dionysus cult was in reality the cult of Tudhaliya
 III the king of the Hittites 1400-1380 BC that would make the Pakistanis,
 the real ones, Lydian colonists since that is where the Bacchae originated
 from.

    Dios is from the Mycenean (Arcado-Cypriot) Diwios meaning God. Dionysus is Di-Wo-Ni-So-Jo in Mycenaean so it means Only Son of God (Dion iso yios). Theos means Disposer.

    Dionysus restores Ammon as king of Egypt then conquers Damascus and all of India. The Indians and the Greeks identified the Indian God Indra 
with Dionysus.

    Probably because Jesus made fish appear in abundance for his disciples.

    NOT ONE statue has ever been found in Palestine depicting Dagon as half man half fish. The representations above are all from Mesopotamia and represent Enki.

    The Philistines were Mycenaean Greeks so the reference that Dagon predates the Sumerian Ea is ridiculous and untenable.

    The big giveaway that Dionysus was Dagon is through the reference in
 Babylonia records to an Oannes invading Babylon.

    This corroborates the Greek account of Dionysus campaigns in Syria. Oannes is exactly the same name as Oeneus who was a Calydon whose name means
 Wine Maker and to whom Dionysus is supposed to have presented the first
 vine. Oeneus was also an epithet of Dionysus.

    Further more Oannes can be seen to be a corruption of the Mycenaen Greek
 word Wanax meaning king.

    Since the Philistines were Mycenaen Greeks why would they be worshiping a Babylonian fish god. They were in fact worshiping the founder of their colony Dionysus who took with him an army of Palasgians from Athens at the
 time when Amphyction was king. They represented him as the Greeks have
 always represented him carrying fruit in his hands which is why the Bible
 refer to him that way.

    The Greek text is quoted below.

    "kai amfotera ta icnh ceirwn autou afhrhmena epi ta emprosyia amafey
ekaston"

    "and both the palms of his hands were cut of at their fore joints"
    "kai amfoteroi oi karpoi twn ceirwn autou peptwkotev epi to proyuron"
    "and both the fruits from his hands were fallen by the doorway"

    The image of Dionysus shows him holding a bunch of Grapes. It is clear that
this depiction of Dionysus is what is describe in the Bible.

    Also, another reason is that Peter, the first pope, was a fisherman.

    I found that all metaphysics can be divided into two major categories of inquiries: life and light: Christ--Life, Amun-Ra:The Light originator. I theorized that Christ was fathered by Amun(the invisible great spirit) and Ra(Maria) asexually, my own construct...Fish, I do not eat fish because I follow eastern ethic of food frugality, especially the sea fish, fish is obviously a symbol of life and rebirth, because fish is linked to Osiris`s lost penis, which was eaten by fishes. Also eastern myths have that water is linked to the spiritual world post-mortem, fish in water thus logically a sign of spiritual rebirth. Hindu brahmins are also called a "people who are reborn."--Search : Brahmins are twice born, have good qualities: Kerala High court judge.
