- Ian_Adamson abstract "Cllr Ian Adamson OBE (born 1944) is a former Lord Mayor of Belfast. He is a member of the Ulster Unionist Party and is a retired medical doctor.A councillor on Belfast City Council from 1989 until 2011, Adamson was lord mayor in 1996.He studied at Bangor Grammar School then Queen's University Belfast becoming a registrar in pediatrics at the Royal Victoria Hospital for Sick Children and the Ulster Hospital.He speaks ten languages, including Scots, Lakota Sioux and Swahili.[citation needed] He is founder chair of the Ulster-Scots Language Society, and remains a vice-president. In liaison with Professor Robert Gregg in 1992, he founded the Ulster-Scots (Ullans) Academy.He is the author of several books on subjects such as folk poetry, history and religion. His 1974 book Cruthin, garnered controversy for its claims that the ancient Cruthin were a pre-Gaelic people who were driven from Ireland to Scotland and that their modern descendants are the Ulster Scots Protestants who merely returned to their old homeland during the 17th-century Plantation of Ulster. Few historians accept his interpretations, with some accusing him of creating a sectarian narrative in which northern Protestants have a prior to claim to Ireland, but Adamson denies this, claiming his interpretation of history offers "the hope of uniting the Ulster people at last". He also wrote Identity of Ulster (1982), and other works dealing with the ethnology of a group of pre-Celtic settlers in Ulster whose mentality he claims still pervades the modern province.He is president of Belfast Civic Trust, founder chair of The Somme Association, founder secretary of the Farset Youth and Community Development, Belfast. Adamson is also a former member of the boards of many other local public sector and voluntary organisations, including The Ulster Folk and Transport Museum, Ulster Museum, The Titanic Trust, The Eastern Health and Social Services Board, The Ultach Trust and a serving brother, Venerable Order of Saint John.".
