*NOTE to Codex Sinaiticus.
The Irish are not descended from Magog,I am Irish myself and I have studied this information, and the word 'Scot' is not derived from 'Scythians' it is derived from the word 'Scotia' which was what the Greeks refered to Ireland as being that the Irish Celts migrated into Scotland.

A silly template I created, that has survived two deletion attempts so far; glad to see it's getting some use now -- though I'd probably rate only a 2 meself...!
I've worked on lots of articles, I will list only a few here:

NOTES:
Cimmerian (Gamir) or Scythian (Ashkuz) origins have been claimed for numerous modern peoples of Europe and Asia, from Ireland to Cambodia:
Irish / Scottish: tradition of Gaelic speech / ogam writing being invented by Fenius Farsa in "Scythia" a few years after the Tower fell. Name 'Scot' said to derive from 'Scythians' who migrated via Spain. Picts said to have been a branch of the Agathyrsi Scythians.
Welsh: traditionally descended from Gomer (Cymru), father of Ashkenaz (this name itself being a probable Heb. misreading of orig. name "Ashkuz".)
French: Franks' king-line traced through the Sicambri to the Cimmerians
Teutonic peoples: traditions of certain foundational Germanic groups (besides the Franks) to Scythia, notably the Saxons (< Sacae?) and Cimbri (< Cimmerians?). Saxons, in A-S Chronicle, said to have returned to 'Scythia' (mainland) for reinforcements when invading Britain. Original homeland of English - 'Angul' or 'Ongul' (a place in Denmark) ("the Oghgul race" in Nennius). Coincidentally, 'Ongul' sounds like the name of numerous other peoples of likely Scythian descent - stretching east even to Korea.
Hungarians: name 'Hungary' thought to drive from 'Onogurs'. Traditions speak of descent from Scythians, as well as Magor and Hunor; some old chronicles indicate these two are sons of Japheth (Magor = Magog; Hunor possibly 'Gomer'?).
Serbs / Croats: assimilated Slavs, but descendants of the Alans, who came from the Massagetae and Sarmatians, who were apparently a hybrid of Scythians. Poles also have some traditions of Sarmatian origin.
Bulgarians / Macedonians: assimilated Slavs, but ancestors were latest wave of Turkic peoples to settle in Europe from the steppes.
Turkic peoples: Nearly all branches are 'Oghuz'; likely connection to 'Ashkuza' or 'Ishguz' - Assyrian names for Scyths. Other branches include Kazakhs (Saks) and the Siberian people still known as Sakha (the Yakuts).
The clan of Kambojas were also apparently of Scytho-Iranian origin, and migrated across South Asia, giving their one of their names, Ashvana, to Afghans and even as far away as the royal line of Cambodia.
