THE SKULL AND BONES YALE
The Skull and Bones is a Fraternity within Yale University, it is one of the most infamous Fraternities in the US, it's past members have went on to become Presidents, heads of Industry, Media, and sports personalities. While trying to find the origin of the symbol of the skull in front of two femur (upper thigh) bones, I found that the first use of it came from the Phoenician town of Sidon, which is an ancient city in what is now Lebanon.
The Skull and Bones Fraternity is known as "Skull and Bones 322". The 32 is said to refer to the year the Fraternity was formed 1832, and the 2 denotes that it is the second Skull and Crossbones fraternity, the first one was in a German University. There is no information available on the internet about the first Skull and Cross Bones Fraternity, or the German University. Coincidental I'm sure, but the Old Testament of the Bible contain 322 Messianic prophesies.
The Knights Templar adopted the symbol of the crossbones and skull and used it in battle, their use of it stems from a tale about a Lord of Sidon. During the time that the Templars ruled the Kingdom of Jerusalem, the Kingdom went as far as Lebanon, and it was divided into four fiefdoms. Sidon was captured by the Crusaders in December 1100 and it was given to Eustace Grenier. He became the first Lord of Sidon.
In 1187 it was conquered by Saladin, and it remained under Muslim control until 1197 when German Crusaders regained control of it.
This is the official Templar explanation as to why they adopted the Skull and Crossbones banner
A mysterious voice told him to go back 9 months later and he would have a son, he did so, and low and behold there was a skull between the leg bones! So according to this explanation, the bones are two female femur bones and the skull is that of a new born baby boy.
In another version of this fable the Lord of Sidon marries the corpse before violating her, I expect someone along the line thought the marriage, which she obviously could not consent to, gave the tale a more moral edge.
Obviously this tall tale is not the real reason they adopted this banner, but I believe that within this ditty, there are clues as to their real reason for adopting it. The Crusaders invaded Jerusalem on the premise that they were securing the land for Christendom, so naturally when they used symbolism and occult rituals that had nothing to do with Christ, they then had to fabricate some kind of explanation.
The Biblical Sidon was the son of Canaan, and the Grandson of Noah, the port city of Sidon has had a settlement since ancient times, 80 m of the shoreline there is a small Island which is joined to the city by a roadway. In the pre-Christian era a Temple to Melqart stood on the island, in the 13th century the Templars built a castle on the Island, on top of the former site of the Temple to Melqart.
It was during the 13th century that Templars began using the Skull and Crossbones banner, in 1262 they handed over possession of their properties in Sidon to the Knights Hospitallers, and it is documented that at this time the Templars were residing in the Sea Castle at Sidon. Source
The Greeks equated the God Melqart to their God Heracles, the historian Herodotus visited a Temple to Melqart at Tyre (another coastal city beside Sidon), he was impressed by two pillars in the Temple, one of pure gold the other of smaragdos (emerald). He noted that they shone with great brilliance at night. Incidentally, all Masonic Temples contain two pillars, could the Templars have brought myths about twin pillars back with them also?
Melqart was said to sleep during the Winter months, and in February he would be re-born, so he was a God of life, death and re-birth. Could it be possible that the Skull and Crossbones banner which was flown by the Templars, was actually an occult pictogram which represented Melqart?
Bones obviously represent death, life is born from woman, and new souls enter from between the female upper thigh bones, the antidote that the Templar's supplied, as to why they used this banner entails all these elements.
The costal town of Maraclea, like Sidon was on the Mediterranean coast line in Lebanon, also like Sidon it was a Crusader town, and it too had a castle. In 1271 the Mamluks destroyed Maraclea, and in 1260 the Mongols destroyed Sidon, so the use of the Skull and Crossbones as a banner with the accompanying fable was likely somewhere between the early 1200's and 1260.
Furthermore, the Lord Sidon violated the remains of the Lady of Maraclea in her tomb, the hub of the Yale University Skull and Bones is aptly named "the Tomb", and it is in The Tomb that they preform their notorious initiation rituals, there has been great speculation as to what exactly is entailed in the initiation ritual, but in the near 200 years of the fraternities existence, not one initiate has revealed details, which would led one of believe that the ritual is so perverse, that not one of the initiates is ever likely to reveal what exactly happens.
Across the pond in the UK, it has recently been reported that the serving Prime Minister David Cameron, as part of an initiation ceremony, put his penis in the mouth of a dead pig, and simulated having oral sex with the pig. In Lord Ascroft's book, "Call me Dave", he claims that Cameron put his penis in the mouth of the dead pig as part of an initiation into the Piers Gaveston Society while at Oxford University. Ascroft claims that photographs were taken of him preforming the act! Obviously being in possession of photographs of such an act, would put one in an immense position of power and control!
Could necrophilia, or even worse, necrophilia combined with bestiality be part of the Scull and Bones initiations? Well who knows, but it sure as hell would explain why in near 200 years, not one initiate has revealed the initiation ritual.
For two centuries, the initiation rite of Skull and Bones has shaped the character of the men who have shaped the American character, including two Presidents named Bush.

Now, I'm sure the above does not require further explanation, but let me put it in plain modern English! According to this antidote, the Lord of Sidon loved a beautiful lady from Maraclea, she died and was buried, on the night of her burial the Lord Sidon dug her up and had sex with her.A great lady of Maraclea was loved by a Templar, A Lord of Sidon; but she died in her youth, and on the night of her burial, this wicked lover crept to the grave, dug up her body and violated it.Then a voice from the void bade him return in nine months time for he would find a son. He obeyed the injunction and at the appointed time he opened the grave again and found a head on the leg bones of the skeleton (skull and crossbones).The same voice bade him ‘guard it Well, for it would be the giver of all good things’, and so he carried it away with him. It became his protecting genius, and he was able to defeat his enemies by merely showing them the magic head. In due course, it passed to the possession of the order. Source

11 Dec 2024:
Back in January 2016 I started this blog, I had gathered a lot more information about the Skull and Bones, but I sadly never got around to finishing it. What I had of the blog languished in draft form until today, when I was going through old blogs, and thought I might as well just publish it as is.
