    It kind of reminds me of the Epic of Gilgamesh when Gilgamesh and Inkidu meet and fight and can't beat the other.

    such amazing research again! I was thinking the whole time that the story sounded similar to something I had heard before and then you mentioned the Brothers Grimms tale, thats when it clicked, growing up in Germany I had read those as a child. Thank you very much for the video!

    Good stuff ,sir, interesting to see how the sources are across northern Europe, Beowulf springs to mind ,and the real life story of Lamnguin (Whiteblade ) ,King /Saint Oswald, or Saint Winifrid over the Dee (another Brytonnic name like Aber,) at Tryfynon/Hollywell, the jury is still out about good old Saint Patrick, s origin, however there's still a spring here on the wirral, at Spital/Bromborough/Brunanburh called Saint Patrick's well, where he evangelised, keep up the great work that you do.E.

      @LiathWolf  3 года назад +3

      Thanks for the information. I wonder if there is a dutch connection to the origin of the tale, since we know of a greman connection.

    What is this game? 16:00 looks like hockey on a football pitch, at first I thought it was lacrosse

    • @LiathWolf
      @LiathWolf  2 года назад +1

      It is called Shinty, a Scottish game resembling hockey, played with curved sticks and taller goalposts and derived from the Irish game of hurling.

    Ok, this is now my new favorite info channel. Not only is your accent incredibly easy to listen to, but I am fascinated by the stories. I'd like to start a RUclips series with your stories telling the backstory of the painting. Of course, you'd be linked and credited. If that's suitable let me know!
    Great channel!🩷
