Abaadir the Harari Saint

Postby grandpakhalif » Fri May 15, 2020 7:04 pm

Can someone please provide more info to this man? I know he was Sade but after doing some research behind the name after Voltage discovered GOITA and its immense meanings.

I found this from University of Michivan


Abadir or Abaddir, word composed of two Phoenician terms. It means magnificent father, a title the Carthaginians gave to gods of the first order. In mythology, abadir is the name of a stone that Cybele or Ops, the wife of Saturn, had her husband swallow in the place of the child to whom she had just given birth. The word is found in corrupted form in Isidore’s glosses, [1] where we read Agadir lapis. Barthius, [2] taking it as it is found in Isidore, ridiculously associates it with the German language. Bochart [3] searched for the origin of abadir in the Phoenician language, and believes with some verisimilitude that it signifies a round stone ; this squares with the shape described by Damascius. [4] The Ancients believed that this stone was the god Terminus [5]: others claim that the word was formerly a synonym for God.
