    Mount benbulben is the remaining trunk of a giant willow tree . The irish willow species of tree found growing on benbulben has never been found growing anywhere else in nature other than growing high up on benbulbens crevices . The willow species of tree is different from the rest with the hormones they produce . The benbulben willow had to be one of the last giant trees on earth to perish / cut down in the bronze ages with bronze tree axes.

      In the Book of Enoch, 200 angels cut down all the ancient trees.
      Anunnaki are the angels. Benbulbin Tree was not just cut down, but heavily quarried.
