KOGAION - SACRED MOUNTAIN OF THE DACIANS

On the sacred mountain of the Dacians was much talk but researchers have not yet managed to reach a consensus regarding its location. Some are of opinion that this would be massive ancient sacred Bohemians, again others say that this massive so revered as the ancient preelene Bucegi mountain.What is right? Starting to judge by law exclusivism, only one of two opinions can be true! That is why? I see the extent that we allow documents!
I will ask apology from the start, for now I will not treat this problem very comprehensive sacred mountain but will draw attention to matters that can not be overlooked. Depending on your interest but I will return with another editorial about it.
To show that the sacred mountain of the Dacians - Kogaion - the holy mountain of antiquity, we turn to historical sources mythology, the symbolism and geography! Let's see what existing evidence tell us about Kogaion location - the ancient sacred mountain, considered the center of old traditions and world pole.
Location Kogaion by Strabo's words
Strabo tells us explicitly: "Just this massive has been recognized as sacred and as Getae call it, his name Kogaionon was just named the river flowing along (Geography, VII, 3.5) The same author says that here there is the cave where the high priest's retreat which I named Zamolxis being considered a god himself: "At first he (Zamolxis) was selected high priest of the most revered god of them again after time was considered a god himself. He then withdrew into a cave, inaccessible to others and there spent a long time, meeting people is rare outside, but only with the king and his ministers "
From Strabo's testimony but also draw another conclusion that but we will not discuss in this study.Catehizarea ( catehizare - it is another job to teach the truth of faith and morals ) usually not a Christian because it was practiced from the beginning Zamolxis cult.Therefore, we have testimonies that are not about God but with Zamolxis Zamolxis Priest, elevated to god through catehizare!

V. Kernbach but we fully clear up the argument, following Strabo's text: "Housing if the high priest was in a grotto in Kogaion here in moments sweep came to advise or consult oracles voices probably King Dacians. Greek authors says that priests called Dacia <path by nori>; here seems to result at least as the main sanctuary was reached on a massive clouds "

Strabo we signal the presence of water which flowed along the sacred mountain and indeed, Ialomita river  springs near the pole of heaven, mentioned in ancient tradition, consisting of peaks Gavanu, devious and Omu Peak. Avoid bad beyond this plateau Babele feet reaching the cave that bears his name.
Babele - "Old womens"

V. Kernbach and Strabo tell us that Zamolxis withdrew a cave entrance where they had just king and his ministers to keep the tip of mystery in the country's problems. Once reality can be verified in the field.

Sacred grotto reputation that we have a show name, kept the tradition of the furthest point reached her - at the altar. In addition, former name of Ialomita Cave is "Decebal cave" once one of the caves is called just "Decebal room", which shows that if the king-hero, as he used to come here and not only predecessors or Burebista them.

Thirdly, V. Kernbach our attention over "Journey through the clouds", as priests were called Dacians, hence the conclusion that the high priest is based on reaching a massive clouds. It is known that Omu Peak is always shrouded by clouds or above them!. Look, therefore, where there is pre-Hellenic Olympus speaking Hesiod and Homer.

BUKOVINA

Bukovina region was part of the historic principality of Moldavia, the region known as Upper Country, early in its existence. In these territories were first residence of the princes Moldovan, Baia, Siret and Suceava, the famous capital the great king and ruler Stephen the Great and Holy. Moldova name itself comes from the Moldova River, river flowing through the beautiful lands of Bukovina. Grand Prince Stephen, along with his followers, the famous monasteries were built here Moldovita SuceviÅ£a Putna, Humor VoroneÅ£ Probota monasteries which are now on the UNESCO list are considered monuments of global concern.


Between 1775 and 1918, this ancient Romanian kept busy by the Habsburg Empire, the period also dates and names of Bukovina (Buchenland, in German, meaning Country of beech).
In 1849, Bukovina achieve autonomy and became the capital of Grand Duchy in Czernowitz, Romania holding a majority in the Diet, whose president is Eudoxiu Hurmuzachi.
Chernivtsi city (now incorporated into the Ukrainian State) becomes an important cultural center in 1875 is established here  Franz Josef University, renowned university in Austria-Hungary.
Great personalities of Romanian culture, study and create here, and composer Porumbescu, the great historian Dimitrie Onciul director of the Romanian Academy, scholar and revolutionist Aaron punch or great national poet, Mihai Eminescu, journalist and politician.
Following the dissolution of Austria-Hungary at the end of World War I, and the threat exerted by Ukrainian forces, the National Council of Bukovina, met on November 28, 1918 in Chernivtsi, and chaired by the old union decides Iancu Flondor with United Romania Romanian territory. Internationally, this decision was recognized in 1919 by the Treaty of Saint Germain.
Following the Ribbentrop-Molotov Pact, signed on 23 August 1939, Romania asked the Soviet Union in June 1940, northern Bukovina, as "damages for losses suffered by the Soviet Union after 22 years of Romanian rule in Bessarabia.
Following these requests, the Crown Council, chaired by Charles II king, he betrays the Romanians in Bukovina and Bessarabia, ceding Bessarabia, Northern Bukovina and the Herta region, without any resistance.
During 1941, the Romanian army, led by Ion Antonescu reconquers territories occupied by the USSR in 1940.

In 1944, the Soviet Union conquered new territory in northern Bukovina, which will be part of this time the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic and the USSR after the dismantling of an independent Ukrainian state.
Slavizare Soviets commence a process of land, much of the Romanian population was massacred or deported to Siberia (or Fountain massacres of White Meadow).
This process of denationalization and continuing after Ukraine gained independence in 1991. Romanian population of the territory of present state Ukraine is divided by the rulers of Kiev on the basis of geographical area, the Romanian and Moldovans, as there are two names for the same people. Ukrainian State currently leads an illegal political Ukrainisation population, denying the constitutional right of Romanians to study in their mother tongue. Thus, Chernivtsi region, of the 92 Romanian-language schools existing during the Soviet state, there are now only 80.
Instead of helping those oppressed by history vitregiile in 1997, Romanian politicians betray their brothers again, signing a treaty with Ukraine, which recognize the 1944 borders illegally.
In these circumstances, we, we can learn to speak the language our ancestors, we have a duty to think and not to forget those who can not enjoy these rights.
