A few clues needed here: There are five of them which are grouped together under one general description though they never knew each other personally. Three of them were Italian, one French and one Armenian (though France and Italy didn't actually exist as countries at the time) One was a woman and now has a capital city named after her. Another has a town in Corsica named after him (this is the one with a namesake from Crediton) Another one of these could be seen today as the gateway to Sheffield (or Derby or Nottingham if you prefer) - or even Paris/Brussels. One died at 14. The woman is often seen as the worst of the five (especially in Germany) - in fact they are better known in central Europe than in the UK where the group of 5 are often reduced to 3. Topical but becoming less so day by day.
Nope, nothing to do with Napoleon Yorkie. Bonifacio however is a lot warmer - originating from the Latin words bonus and facere which refer to the name of one of the five. This all predates Napoleon by a long time - but the five are still often referred to now by anguished people stood on fields.
Yes Yorkie - so you now know that one of the five was called Sofia (more commonly Sophia) and she was considered important enough to have a city named after her. She is/was also the last of the five - which are collectively known as.........
More well known in central and northern Europe. the group of five there is more well known as a group of three in English folklore (proven however from measurements over many years at Kew Gardens - so not just folklore). Also may have a connection to the Blackthorn in England.
Not specifically gnosticism Yorkie but it is at least one part early Christian and another part tomatoes and beans etc.
Nope, nothing to do with Ajaccio. So, to summarize we have 5 of them: 1. The first - was French (what would now be France) - other than that you know nothing as yet. 2. The second, died at 14 and his name could be said to be the gateway to Sheffield (or Brussels). 3. The third could be the Armenian 4. The fourth gave his name to the town in Corsica and had a namesake born in Crediton. 5. You know the fifth was called Sophia and the capital of Bulgaria was named after her (though she wasn't Bulgarian) In some places the fifth is said to be the worst. The group is sometimes reduced to three (often in English folklore) They all died a long time ago (or did they !) In some way they have something to do with Studies done at Kew gardens, and have something to do with things like the blackthorn, tomato plants and beans. Saints alive that should be enough
Gateway only currently leads me to trains and I have been a couple if times to Corsica and cant find the name of a town with a mans name ??
