Leprechaun-size doorways in Ancient Irish churches, and 'Fairy Rings'!?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 14 авг 2024
- Irish people will stay away from fairy rings which are ancient ring forts. I assume the shorter people of the past, were (rightly) scared of vikings or something.
Not sure if these are all for actual leprechauns or simply because they wanted the door to be small for some structural reason. These doorways are located, from memory, in the monastery at Cong.
They make a nice opposite to the giant's doorway at Baalbek!

I love the vids Charlie, keep it up! I grew up and still live in NY but I am from Ireland and go back often. I was over just last month and went to Newgrange, Hill of Tara, and castles in Trim, and a few more spots. I love Ireland and the history and I like your views on Atlantis. My great grandfather had found Viking jewelry on his farmland, in Co. Galway, as well as remnants of a foundation of a small castle or stone structure. This farmland is still in our family and I have always wanted to do more maybe metal detecting or something to see what else is out there.
There are other explanations for very small doorways. If it is an entrance to a holy place, small doorway would force you bow your head as you enter. Small doorway is also a good defensive precaution against unwanted guests. I've read this kind of architecture was common in some parts of ancient Britain.
Many ancient buildings in Eire have the ground filled in with gravel, this might raise the floor level, and lower the doorway height. They fill in Souterrains and level the ground so tourists can walk in the sites.
Had an actual experience in 1985 in the Midlands of England near Sherwood Forest that might interest you. A couple of friends and I were walking down one of those famous small English hedgerow single lane roads in search of a church cemetery. We met an elderly "little" woman about 4 1/2' feet tall wearing a "liberty cap" coming the other way. Her name was "Mrs. Mar-i-son". She gave us directions to the church and to a quaint little tea house nearby. The doorway to the tea house was about 5' (I'm 6' and had to duck down). It was quite pleasant. We did feel a bit large.
oh wow!!!!
they used extra large stones at the doorway to prevent battering in.
Brian Boru was from the O' Cenneide Clan and was an ancestor of "The Kennedys". I think you'll like that little bit of info. The shortest men in Ireland are in Galway and are descendents of the Fir Bolg translates to The Dark Men. The taller fairer men in Ireland descended from the De Danen or Na Fianna. They were fierce enemies. These are pre historic stories of invasions handed down orally through the generations. A scientific survey was carried out on our DNA recently and it emerged, much to our surprise, that a lot of Irish people share a genetic marker with The Basque people.
Julian May spun the myths of the world together in The Pliocene Saga epic. It is a very long story arc overall, but the Irish myths can be found in the Antagonist Duality of the Tanu ( elegant tall aliens) and their biologically entwined opposites the Firvulag ( mutated cave dwelling dwarves) excellent scifi series.
My fathers side is from Galway and it's obvious the genetics are similar to those of the Basque in Spain such as the darker skin and jet black hair. My mothers side hail from Co. Meath and the genetics are different where more fair and freckled skin and lighter hair such as blonds and reds. Both sides have a lot of blue eyes I do notice. I end up fair and freckled, blue eyed and dark hair. Go figure..
The Basque people that look similar to the Irish in appearance today, actually look like the fair/pale blue eyed type Irish. The Basques are mostly pre Moorish invasion of Spain, Iberians. The dark types in the very west and a pocket in Dublin city for some reason, could be of North African admixture. There are some people in Connemara with frizzy hair and wide noses like Sub Saharan Africans. Its amazing how people can look so different just 30 miles down the road in this small country.
Small doors were also more efficient at keeping in the heat
These tiny doorways were built in for sheeps, pigs and chicken, simply househeld farm-animals. People lived with these together inside their homes.
The short doors may be for a religious purpose.
The act of having to bow while entering a sacred space has significance.
The ancient Toltec Indians used to practice this, would not surprise me if other ancient people were doing the same.
Rheyza the entrance to a huge stone parmeter stone wall in play del Carman mexico, had a short narrow tunnel entrence. at 6 ft I had to crouch low to get threw. who ever the walls were built for, was too big to get through the opening hence no physical gate on a fort.
Maybe entryway for Irish Wolfhound
are the tiny doors on the North side of the structures? reminds me a lot of "Devils Doors" you see in many middle ages Churches in England, especially in Sussex.. The idea behind "devils doors" was to allow the devil an exit when he was cast out during Baptisms
I'm curious why there would be bars on the window. Any idea what purpose they serve?
making people bend down as they enter a place from outside as a security measure is used in japanese culture. these small doors would work well for that.
They would enter on there knees that’s why the doors are short
I'm off the wall, but the fort looks like a human cell that's dividing... Just a thought. Could the "fort" actually represent life? If so, where did the knowledge come from?
Maybe the small doorways were for dogs, for security etc
Where I live in Leicestershire its great for anient monuments ! The Jewry Wall I think you should look it up. They say its 2000 years old from Roman times. The biggest roman wall in the UK.
Nice! Wow, havn't heard of the Jewry wall.
In Irish mythology they were called the fairy mounds or a sidhe in Irish. It is said that that the Tuatha de Dananns fled to these after being expelled by the Milesians and that if you go into these you could get trapped in the underworld were they dwell.
the door ways were small to help keep the heat in. they were tall enough to let the cattle and sheep inside for they were a source of heat as well. The little people were wicked little critters and you always left the last bite of your food for them. the eldest child was to put it out every night for them as a sign of respect. if they didnt like you they could cause all sorts of mischief. to keep them from hanging around the walls were topped with standing stones because this is where they liked to sit and watch you. My cousin told me of a man who took out a ferries tree so it would make plowing the land easier because the tree was dead. it was less than a month ad he was dead. superstition? they dont think so. Ireland is 159 mi wide and about 300 mi long and you cant go a mile without some sort of ruins or artifacts. and the people are friendly My advice go if you can for it will be an adventure of a lifetime. and clime mount knock
Grampa
A lot of the churches in Devon have tiny 3-ft doors complete with spiral stairwells etc...definitely made to be used as you can see the erosion on the steps. Usually the churches are in the middle of nowhere, but if you ask around the locals will tell you the Black Death wiped out the whole village way back when...was the Black Death genocide against hobbits? :/
The tiny doors might be an ancient sort of metal detector, not in the literal sense however. The walls with the stairs look like a system to allow defenders to move in any direction, as you can go from bottom to top rather quickly without breaking stride (the great Incan road has similar staircases, I read that people believe that they were for runners to be able to pass messages between one another and not break pace)
Anyways, back to the metal detector theory of mine. Bandits, Vikings and the local populace were probably the day to day threats...Causing people to bow down, kneel, or even crawl through the doorways are obviously good tactically for those occupying the structure, but it could also in essence, betray any weaponry or stolen goods that might be hidden on someone entering or leaving. Those inside could "detect" what someone has on them simply by making them bend over lol.
The tiny doors break someone's pace no matter what their original intent. Most structures (from forts to places of worship) seem to be made for function and not "artistry" like they are today. So keeping that in mind, there's a practical reason people were being made to kneel down when entering buildings or certain areas of buildings I'd think.
I also like the pious aspect as well, the act of groveling before entering. It's probably a combination of the two, defensive in some places and apparently religious in nature in others. The monks do love their golden relics and such, which the vikings were all about. We might be seeing, in these tiny doors, a spur of the moment advance in technology to counter a new threat.
However I can't shake the idea that so many of these ringed structures suggest a fort system and less a religious, sort of pilgrimage system of monasteries. Imagine if wood didn't rot or burn...how crazy some of these places would be, the roofs, bridges, etc. that have long since turned to dust and charcoal.
nice video! just one tiny correction to that Iceland example: vikings were the first women and men to settle that big Island... before vikings there was only male monks who left before vikings made Iceland to their demographic republic... but in other countries vikings did just that what you said expect in America... keep doing these great theories!
Thank you! woohooo! Good info!
they used small doorways that people could squeeze through but their cattle could not. Who wants smelly cows in their home ! QED !
The belief fairies protect these sites. Not that people believe in fairies. It's just that you don't want to take a chance on pissing them off.
Dublin was a Viking settlement Brian boru was from the west chased and fought the Vikings in Dublin on the shore and a Viking killed Boru in his tent with a axe and Irish blood is mostly Basque with some Viking DNA
Charles. have. u. seen. the. little. mummy. found. in. ireland
No, I havn't!
Danny Staton im irish and have never heard of that either
Dublin was founded by Vikings so leprechaun's would more likely be found anywhere else but Dublin. Modern DNA research has shown that Viking and English genes only penetrated about ten percent of the population. Brian Boru was the first king to unite Ireland in a fight against an outside invader and they say he was killed after the battle in his tent by a Viking assassin.
Will future archaeologist finding doll houses believe they represent the size of ancient beings.
Haha possibly. One thing I know, the future archaeologists will look at our brick houses and say "'stone age civilization', 4000 BC-2500 AD"
I watched this video again and it's very funny to me when you say the 'dubs' , as we call them, are short. There was an area called 'the pale' which was a walled in area around dublin city built in the middle ages to protect the english invaders from the indigenous irish. So maybe that's why they're little they all descend from the brits/normans. While the rest of us descend from vikings and celts. It cracks me up when you say the dubs are little ( it's a rivalry thing) Up the tall rebels hahahaha
The Irish are very serious about the little people (Leprechauns). When I traveled all over I'd ask, "why is that little boat sitting in the middle of the river? Ah," they'd reply," the little people use it every night to cross over." Totally straight faced. After awhile I took it not as legend, but fact, although I never saw one. There were many "Tinkers" (Irish Gypsys) traveling in beautiful colorful carved wooden wagons pulled by tired horses. The entire country was to my 20 year old American mind, full of mystery and possibilities. Y
Tinkers in coloured wagons?? How old are you a hundred?
@@23Dawnay I was in Ireland (Republic) in 1969-70. No, not 100. Y
My take is that from a structural engineering side, the huge blocks above and to the side of door entrances are needed to either distribute weight or counter weight. Also, from an artistic view, it looks nice. There are not a lot of possibilities ppl had in terms of 'what can I do to make it pretty / grand with these rocks we have laying around' ? Also, fairy.. Faroe.. ? And didn't the legend of Atlantis speak of circular cities? Regarding the doors in short height, for churches it creates an atmosphere of bowing to the Lord when entering the church (submission). And it might be a built-in safety feature. If an intruder enters a building / house and has to duck / crouch to get in, it creates an opportunity for defenders to defend the property more easily.
Yes, the Atlantis legend was very explicit about these concentric circles. Interesting! Wow!
Charles Kos Charles in Tolumn Mexico the had tiny doors too. many times three doors with winged falling man.
also obvious "Roman " arches in the front of the buildings.
the main temple, a person would have to be only a meter tall.
oh nice!!!! Thanks for the info, Rocket!
My first grade teacher had us out on the fence line of the playground staring at a rabbit hole...she convinced me and two girls it was a leprechauns hole...Darby Ogill one of my favorites...how about those humanoid fossils and skeletons less than a foot long...cat scans say they are real...the ancient world must have been wonderful
Not too bad, but there is no need to rush through your video. Slow down, speak distinctly, and..slow down. The cover photo is beautiful. Why not tell us the dimensions of the structure? Are the walls two feet, six feet, ten or twenty.? Keep up your work.
Hi Charles, I loved this video, it asks so many questions. I've always thought that the Egyptian god Bes resembles a leprechaun...short, plump, with a long red beard? Be careful as you investigate these ruins, as the fairy folk are easily offended and can be spiteful. Remember to leave them a gift if you wish to avoid trouble. As for Brian Boru, I recall being taught a very old song about this national hero, as a small child.
When I was nine years old, I noticed a big old tree in the middle of a cultivated field one day, and asked my father why the farmer didn't remove it before he ploughed the field. He replied that it was a fairy tree and the farmer didn't want to incur the wrath of the little people.
As for those stone beehive cells, we're told they were built by the first monks. I doubt that the first monks were master stone masons and would suggest that they were built long before the first Christians showed up. No doubt, the monks made good use of them but I seriously doubt that they built them.
Thank you very much, Coney Island. YES, Bes also reminds me of an Olmec Statue. Very interesting. Oh wow!
Those stone built structures are not fairy forts.. Fairy forts are grassy stony mostly circular mounds and there is always either white or black thorn or both.. U never cut down the tree and never step on the mound.. But the structures in the video are man made.. Not fairies..
"The Irish are afraid to go there" Who the heck mows the grass? j/k
haha true!
credibility was lost at Leprechaun DNA.
Cat doors
The 'Slavic' genes give you the upper edge on height @ 6' 2" .... not a hobbit
lol thanks.
Yep they sure were real, just like the Hawaiians having the Menehune. An the Polynesians having their own small peeps.Was also more recently found that Irish were black, an it took 3 gens for them to become a white race. Great work as usual. Yeshua is king!
I know of the Fir Bolg , Tuatha De Danann , Fomorians and Melisians but not of any black race to arrive in ancient Ireland. Is there a link to this recent finding.
It was at a private conference, where they tell you to turn off all the cameras and no pictures, then they release the info for about an hour, then turn back on the cameras to continue, i think dmurphy25 has great info on blacks being the first race on earth, take it with a grain of salt, like all information, but i can tie it in back to the Australians Aboriginals, only a father and son duo whos the only ones researching and has proved multiple times that the mainstream will not acknowledge, an just this week, they came out an said no one came from africa and we all came from europe now, i mean its a big effin joke with these aholes, but that new jaw piece was a blackmans and its over a million years old, an the rebuilt face shows him a normal looking dude, i think they pushing it because this Australian connection is starting to pickup steam, an these same ancient aussies say their land is red, because of the blood that was spilt on the land, which if you study MudFossils, just makes sense, we are all just pieces to a large puzzle. didnt realize in the earlier bibles it mentions how whites came into play, an like Moses was dark skinned and then turned white to show the power of God, when he went to retrieve the commandments. An i think it was caine that was born white as a punishment. Fascinating information out there. Yeshua is All.
What?
The Smithsonian has skeletons of giants and they hide them from the public so god only knows what the truth of our origins are.
It's probably lying in the vaults of some museum hidden from the public because it upsets the evolutionary applecart.
WRONG on so many of your statements especially about Brian Boru being a Viking......Dude research properly before making wild statements.....Your right it about it annoying the "right people"......It annoys anyone who knows the RIGHT FACTS.......Like your videos in general though......
