Ottema. The book is based on a manuscript that was allegedly discovered in the 19th century in the Netherlands, and it claims to be a record of the history and mythology of the ancient Frisian people. The manuscript is said to have been written in the 13th century, and it is presented as a series of chronicles, poems, and genealogies that describe the origins of the Frisians, their religious beliefs, and their interactions with other cultures. The book is divided into three parts. The first part provides an overview of the history of the Frisians, including their migration to the Netherlands and their interactions with the Romans and other neighboring tribes. The second part focuses on the Frisian religion, including their worship of the goddess Frya and their belief in reincarnation. The third part contains genealogies that trace the lineage of the Frisian kings and queens.The authenticity of the Oera Linda Book has been a subject of debate among scholars. Some believe that it is a genuine historical document, while others argue that it is a forgery created in the 19th century. Despite the controversy, the book remains an important source of information about the Frisian people and their culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
