I meant kerb stone 67 when I said kerb stone 62.
Great lecture. So many new henges and monuments, Partholón and his people were very busy.
Fascinating and lovely, thank you.
Many thanks for share this amazing video, Anthony. With out doubt such beautiful landscapes and are gifts from Gods. Your work is great example to us.
Thank you for sharing this lecture. Wonderful content!
Something I stumbled upon lately:
Cairngorm is in Scotland. Blue Mountain. In Irish we refer to a black man as fear gorm but I think there is more to it than that. One theory suggests it means devil.
Cairngorm also is known as smoky quartz. Its yellow to brown to black. Given the stones in our megalithic structures around the globe are high in quartz perhaps fear gorm might mean men of quartz. Regarding Northern Africans - specifically Egypt (depending on time in history of course) Quartz in Irish is is griancloch (solar stone). Probably a dead end; the Egyptians could take or leave the ☀.
Quartz crystals maintain a precise frequency standard!
I was told many years ago that we use the term fear gorm for black man because the old Irish term An Fear Dubh (The Black Man) was the name for the Devil. This was long before Irish people knew that there were people of other races and skin colours on Earth and when Black men were discovered the Irish language added the term fear gorm for these humans since the fear dubh was supernatural.
@@seanmccann8368 yes, I was told the same. I'm of the belief the celts were well travelled though. Look at the Lunulae in the museum of archaeology. If Egyptian does spring to mind have another look. The most prominent design on them is a triangle (pyramid).
I've traced this idea to tamil in India. Place called Coonoor (like that sounds hindi) closer to connemara maybe. Blue mountains there too. Sidney has em too. I've asked some friends there to look into geology of rocks there so I'll get back to you. Too many cultures with no recollection of their ancient structures. We practiced oral lore here and yet we don't know what these megaliths are about. Why tombs??? When they perfectly align with with star constellations, solar and lunar movement. Not just ours but pyramids, Gobekli Tepe stonehenge and countless others. Everybody still has their heads firmly stuck up their primary school teachers arse. He/she never fact checked this stuff. They were taught same stuff when they were kids and on it goes!
I might be wrong but I'm at least out side of the box!
@@lallyoisin You have to remember that a lot of this stuff was invented/re-invented around the time of the rise of 'Romantic Nationalism' to create an imaginary history going back into the lost times of an 'original' Irish, British, Germanic, Slavic, whatever, roll your own foundation myth. It is likely that it was just people using what was available to do what they wanted - look at modern 'Diarmuid Bannon' type house building programmes on tv lots of glass and big white walls and open plan. As T.S. Elliot said, 'all cases are unique and exactly similar'.
@@seanmccann8368 so you don't think Gobekli Tepe was built after early dryas?
You don't think obelisks disappeared all over Europe - here too?
You believe the megalithic blocks weighing up to 1500 tonne at the base of most ancient structures are just codswallop? Have a look at the pregnant stone and tell me our stonework is evolving or devolving? Take a look at old monasteries in Peru and tell me you think it was the incas. History was falsely written by the Victors (armies not architects). Hey soldier, how long you been honing your skill set in military expertise? 20 years. Any chance you could build a colosseum? More like move in and take the spoils on account of your armour and size. Your opening sentence was a game breaker. I don't have to do anything. That's me pic and that's me name BTW!
Peace!

I'm watching this now. Go figure!?
Brilliant, Anthony!
Great video ! Great talk ! Thanks very much ! Keep up the GOOD work ! m
I am learning about Boand and the sacred well and you show the wonders of the Boyne Valley I am going there to see
This video alarmed my backward brain into looking further into the Spiral Symbol. A few hours into last night I bounced upon terrestrial magnetism. My Grandfather was a Dowser, he was shown this by his father. It must be in my blood because I feel energized @ hill of Tara. I need to look into this more 😏
Anthony I understand the spirals, but the u shaped and similar carvings what were they do you surmise?
In the Go-Spell of Mark / Marc = Target ; Set Time; chapter 3-17 we find " John ( to them they gave the name Boanerges, )" there we find Boanne, hidden and Geis means Taboo.
As some of you may have seen, according to genetic data the origin of the Celts is in the Iberian peninsula....there were several places considered for the origin.
To say the stones were set long before the druids supposes that the Druidic priest’s ignored and neglected the stones, and to propose no relationship of the druids and stones ignores the Irish mythic traditions that consider the tombs as dwelling places of the gods, and puts them in a context of the Celtic mythic tradition.
44:45 for an impressive collective intake of breath.
who died at 40? I don't believe it. People are peolple and i believe they lived longer. It wasn't because of modern science that most of my great grandparents and my grand parents lived into their 90's.
Unfortunately life in the Neolithic was quite harsh. There is a high preponderance of juvenile and adolescent bones among those found in Irish passage-tombs, and very few belonging to people who lived long lives. Your grandparents probably had the advantage of a much more varied diet and perhaps better food security than the people of the Stone Age. And they likely weren't involved in high-risk work such as building megalithic monuments which were constructed in pre-metal days. Lots of risks and injury almost always meant death...
