I have found several instances also where Barat is Interchangeable with Bharat. The one book that I read stated that the Phoenicians referred to themselves as Barat or Bharats. When I looked up my family name in a book of surnames, it said that it was from the Old Norse word "dark or swarthy ones". Funny thing about all this is that my ancestors are from the noreth of Scotland!! There is strong evidence that the Phoenicians were travelling to Britain in very ancient times. I have also read that the Phoenicians have some connection to ancient India, as well as the Rig Veda. The Saka or Scythians are mentioned in the Vedas and the people of Scotland claim that they originate from Scythia near the Black Sea.
