Two of my favourite enigmas linked in one photo: the Shroud and the Brendan voyage. Nice.

The secret of the surname Brendan:
Cryptologically speaking (medieval etymology), the surname Brendan (feminine form Brenda) plays with the Latin words brandeum and its plural form brandea, i.e. a textile contact relic as substitute and can refer to a Holy relic or even the Relic of relics namely the Shroud.
Etymologically speaking (scientific etymology) this is a Celtic name that literally means “he (the Virgo male) with a stag head” referring to a young man wearing a white stag mask with real antlers symbolic of Divine Power. In the feminine form, “she (the Virgin) of the stag-headed (young virgo male)” symbolic of Materia Prima (the Human condition) in conjunction with a fecundation rite dedictated to Celtic G-od Cernunos.
Iconosteganlogically speaking, you can see the young stag head (as archaeoprareidolia
/optical illusion) in the TS man’s bloodied image of his forearms. This TS steganic image accounts for the parallelled hagiographic legends of saint Stacey/cie, saint Julian and saint Hubert.
Now:
– the scientific etymology for Stacey/cie is Greek word eu-stachys, “nice ear (of barley/wheat)” (and can be read in light of the TS weave pattern). All the more so as the latter surname plays with Greek word Anastasis, “Resurrection” too.
– the surname Julian derives from the Greek word ioulos, “whole (ear of barley)”, which echoes Stacey/cie).
– the scientific etymology for Hubert is ()possibly) Germanic hug, “thought, reflection, intellect” and bert, “to shine,enlighten, awaken”. The former copies the Aramaic word HOug, “mental activity” and Chaldaic HâGoH, “to meditate, think, reflect, reason, deduce”. In Celtic houg/huw, “meditation, thought, inspiration”.
All this speaks volumes on icono/cryptosteganology image and word interconnections.
Then finally one can also notice the word brend (“antlers”) derived from the Celtic brand “to split (a host)”, “to divide (into TWO)”. The Celtic word comes from the Aramaic word PRaD “to divide, split, share” (Heb. PâRaD). The latter plays with the Heb. Para ‘Aduma, ‘”the Red Heifer”, which plays in his turn with Heb. Phar, “bullock” referring to the covenant between G.od and Man, of a bullock cut into two. Now Torino/Turin/torino, the Italian name of the city in which the Shroud is kept is the very word for bullock…

David, now you can re-read saint Brendan’s Voyage in this crypto- and iconosteganological light. Enjoy it.

And don’t forget ‘Brendan’ is an anagram giving us the old Germanic word ‘Bandern’ -a plural form meaning ‘ribbons’ or ‘swaths’ of linen — a clever nod to the Shroud and it’s dual images.
