Chapter 1
The Theory of Uno Mas- *theory states that all magic began from one person: the first wizard, Uno Mas, the given name was translated to The First Magi. * Uno lived in the time of reptiles and before cavemen. He is believed to be the father of all wizards and witches. *The theory also states that Uno created the first wand as well, making him the literal father of magic. The Migration Theory- *Believing magical and Muggle kind lived side-by-side for years of migration, it is thought that wizards and witches didn't know they had magic. * when the Descent of Blizz (also known to Muggles as the Ice Age) hit, magical persons left the Muggles and created their own groups and settlements. The Theory of Hocus Pocus- * idea that magic came out of thin air naturally, and did not come specifically from a "first wizard." * theory suggests that women began to use magic as a form of persuasion and that from this came a "natural progression of magical tendencies." This term -- natural progression -- simply means that nature has a tendency to force specific habits upon humans who react differently than a magical person would. * This theory focuses primarily on the first known uses of magic, as opposed to who first used magic. * ”Those who support the suggestions found in the Theory of Uno Mas mistakenly claim we lived among the dinosaurs. If this claim were to be true, then our relations to such ancestry should worry even the most liberal of conservatives.” (Loppet, 124) * Although the Theory of Uno Mas is most widely accepted among individuals, scholars tend to believe that the Hocus Pocus theory is more suited in reality. * Dr. Josiah Loppet- wrote a book to refute this theory, entitled: "The Anti-Uno Mas Theory".
