Andonite mother worshipers came by boat from coast of 1 paragraph

80:8.5The Danu­bians be­came mother wor­shipers as the re­sult of the work of the mis­sion­ar­ies from Crete. These tribes later amal­ga­mated with groups of An­don­ite sailors who came by boats from the coast of Asia Mi­nor, and who were also mother wor­shipers. Much of cen­tral Eu­rope was thus early set­tled by these mixed types of the broad-headed white races which prac­ticed mother wor­ship and the re­li­gious rite of cre­mat­ing the dead, for it was the cus­tom of the mother cultists to burn their dead in stone huts.

Andrew journeyed through 1 paragraph

139:1.12When the later per­se­cu­tions fi­nally scat­tered the apos­tles from Je­ru­sa­lem, An­drew jour­neyed through Ar­me­nia, Asia Mi­nor, and Mace­do­nia and, af­ter bring­ing many thou­sands into the king­dom, was fi­nally ap­pre­hended and cru­ci­fied in Pa­trae in Achaia. It was two full days be­fore this ro­bust man ex­pired on the cross, and through­out these tragic hours he con­tin­ued ef­fec­tively to pro­claim the glad tid­ings of the sal­va­tion of the king­dom of heaven.

Eve mother cult in 1 paragraph

80:7.7It was dur­ing this age in Crete that the mother cult of the de­scen­dants of Cain at­tained its great­est vogue. This cult glo­ri­fied Eve in the wor­ship of the “great mother.” Im­ages of Eve were ev­ery­where. Thou­sands of pub­lic shrines were erected through­out Crete and Asia Mi­nor. And this mother cult per­sisted on down to the times of Christ, be­com­ing later in­cor­po­rated in the early Chris­tian re­li­gion un­der the guise of the glo­ri­fi­ca­tion and wor­ship of Mary the earth mother of Je­sus.

held by predominantly Andonite tribes 1 paragraph

78:3.5As the pe­riod of the early Adamic mi­gra­tions ended, about 15,000 B.C., there were al­ready more de­scen­dants of Adam in Eu­rope and cen­tral Asia than any­where else in the world, even than in Mes­o­po­ta­mia. The Eu­ro­pean blue races had been largely in­fil­trated. The lands now called Rus­sia and Tur­kes­tan were oc­cu­pied through­out their south­ern stretches by a great reser­voir of the Adamites mixed with Nod­ites, An­don­ites, and red and yel­low San­giks. South­ern Eu­rope and the Med­i­ter­ra­nean fringe were oc­cu­pied by a mixed race of An­don­ite and San­gik peo­ples—or­ange, green, and in­digo—with a sprin­kling of the Adamite stock. Asia Mi­nor and the cen­tral-east­ern Eu­ro­pean lands were held by tribes that were pre­dom­i­nantly An­don­ite.

overrun by barbarians of Turkestan ca. 2500 B.C. 1 paragraph

80:9.7By 2500 B.C. the west­ward thrust of the An­don­ites reached Eu­rope. And this over­run­ning of all Mes­o­po­ta­mia, Asia Mi­nor, and the Danube basin by the bar­bar­ians of the hills of Tur­kes­tan con­sti­tuted the most se­ri­ous and last­ing of all cul­tural set­backs up to that time. These in­vaders def­i­nitely An­donized the char­ac­ter of the cen­tral Eu­ro­pean races, which have ever since re­mained char­ac­ter­is­ti­cally Alpine.
