Chapter 2
- Theories of Magic Origins: Uno Mas, Migration, Hocus Pocus
- Uno Mas Theory: Originating from a single person, believed to be the first wizard
- Migration Theory: Wizards and Muggles coexisted, magical migration led to separate settlements
- Ho Mao Tseng: Discovered evidence of magic-practicing people through manuscripts
- Gringotts Curse-Breakers: Unearthed artifacts of early magical settlers, supporting Migration Theory
- Natural Progression of Magic: Emphasized by Migration Theory, challenging traditional beliefs
- Theory of Hocus Pocus: Magic originated naturally, not from a specific first wizard
- Focus: First uses of magic, natural progression of magical tendencies
- Supporting Evidence: Birch Bark Manuscript, artifacts recovered by curse-breakers
- Disagreement: Dr. Josiah Loppet opposes Uno Mas theory, supports Hocus Pocus and Great Migration
- Support: Scholars lean towards Hocus Pocus theory's realism
- Collaboration: Dr. Loppet and Professor Bjorken retrieved manuscripts supporting Hocus Pocus and Great Migration
- Influence: Ho Mao Tseng, supporter of Migration Theory, believed to align with Loppet and Bjorken's views if alive today
