MAGICAL BEGINNINGS

There are many theories of how magic arose, but they focus on three:

- The theory of One More

- The theory of migration

- The hocus pocus theory

THE THEORY OF ONE MORE

It is established that magic began with only one person: the first magician, Uno Mas. The name comes from ancient Aramaic, and means the first magician. The theory was presented by William Marangue in his book "The One More Theory". With this, he affirms that One More lived in the time of the reptiles and before the cave men, thus being the father of all wizards and witches. He was also the creator of the first wand.

THE THEORY OF MIGRATION

This is a bit more complex.

The migration theory suggests that in ancient times, wizards and muggles lived together without realizing they had magic. However, when Blizz Descent (the Ice Age) occurred, wizarding people split from Muggles and founded their own wizarding settlements and towns. Famed historian Ho Mao Tseng found clues to a vanished magical town, and Gringotts curse breakers unearthed artifacts and relics from wizards who immigrated to France during the Descent of the Blizz. The Migration Theory also holds that there is a natural progression of magic over time.

THE THEORY OF HOCUS POCUS

The Hocus Pocus Theory proposes that magic arose naturally and did not come from a "first magician". It focuses on the first known uses of magic, especially attributed to women who used it as a form of persuasion. The theory suggests that a "natural progression of magical tendencies" developed from this, where nature imposes specific habits on magical people that differ from non-magical people.

Evidence supporting this theory includes the Birch Bark Manuscript, a body of writings and observations stored in the Museum of Ancient Magical History in Brussels. Other artifacts such as Diricawl feathers, writing utensils, and unicorn horn necklaces have also been recovered and contribute to supporting the Hocus Pocus Theory.

DISAGREEMENT AND SUPPORT

The theories of One More, Hocus Pocus and Great Migration try to explain the origin of magic and its evolution over time. Although the One Plus Theory is widely accepted, Dr. Josiah Loppet defends the Anti-One Plus Theory in his book. He finds the idea of living among dinosaurs as suggested by the One Plus Theory troubling.

Scholars, on the other hand, consider the Hocus Pocus Theory to be more plausible in reality. Dr. Loppet, along with Professor Bjorken, have worked to recover manuscripts supporting the Hocus Pocus and Great Migration theories, though there were debates over who would keep them, and eventually, Professor Bjorken obtained them.

Although Ho Mao Tseng is known as the father of the Migration Theory, it is believed that if he were present today, he would have sided with Dr. Loppet and Professor Bjorken.
