What is not mentioned here is that stones have been found in north America with Ogham alphabetic writing on them. Ogham is an ancient Irish Gaelic alphabet dating back to the 4th-6th century.
Exactly. I believe ancient jewellery linked to the time has been found not that long ago.
There was also a rune stone found in Minnesota that, for years, was the claim of the Norse having got there. It is a fake, but beware the "found" object without supporting science.
There is native American stories of 6ft redhead hairy men that were not of native American culture but spoke the languages by the puyute of the humbolt river area I believe this is them
Nahhh ... highly debatable... it's likely native American...similar to the Vikings were supposedly in Minnesota allegation based on the Kensington rune stone
The only people who could have written in Ogham were the Irish monks or somebody who was taught by the monks.
I highly recommend you collectively read Tim Severin - The Brendan Voyage, referred to by Caleb. It's a fascinating read. Tim also successfully completed other voyages which were considered mythical rather than historical. By completing these seemingly impossible voyages he provided us with the possibility that these so called myths, or fables were in fact, historically accurate accounts. Entertaining reads, he experienced and wrote of his experience.
What struck me when reading it, was how, ironically, he was almost killed in the little boat he built, based on St. Brendan's description, by a modern ship. The threats from the sea environment were much less. Interestingly, he commented on how other sea mammals accompanied the boat. He felt that they thought the boat was some kind of dolphin or whale, and how there must have been even more back in the 6th century accompanying the Brendan Voyage. Sad to say.
There's evidence that stone age Europeans reach north America. The ice sheet was much further south that it is now, and the Europeans used the coast line to navigate their way.
There were Irish monks known as the ‘papar’ that inhabited Iceland prior to the Norse.
Would they have been from the Celtic church or later, i.e. Roman Catholic?
From the little I know, I think it was in the overlapping period. 'Missionary' work was a huge element of Christianity, historically and I think it operated as a rite of passage sort of practice.
@@rlk54They was never an 'entity' called, or regarding itself as being, the 'Celtic Church.' The latter was an attempt by the Tractarians to whitewash History inorder to 'justify' their return 'smells and bells' Calvinism.
"Celtic Church" Irish Church surely?
No such thing as the "Celtic Church". There is the Roman Catholic Church in Ireland or Britain etc. Irish monks inhabited all the islands from Ireland to Iceland and tried to evangelise Scandinavia too
And how do we think Vikings discovered North America, Greenland, Iceland, Faroe, Britain and Ireland?
The Gaels were also raiders long before the Vikings. Lochlann.
Blue Tooth. Artwork. The culture it seems, went both ways.
Nice presentation.
The Irish had been great seafarers , they had ocean going vessels in ancient times , never forget Ireland is an Island and Islanders had to be seafarers , how their ancestors reached Ireland ? There is a rich history about 30 m ( 100 feet ) vessels used in the 6th century and before for journeys to France Spain, England and so on . No question they could travel to north America .
In the Neaolithic ages there was no Irish sea or English Channel & North sea we were joined to Mainland Europe by what is now called Doggerland now under the North Sea you could reach the British Isles (Including Ireland) on FOOT the same way north America was settled in Neolithic times using the then landbridge between Alaska & Eastern Europe!! Sadly the bulk of Americans are not Taught Ancient History in Their Education System you have to go to Uni for that they are only concerned with (White) History since the late 1700's.
@@normanwallace7658 Ouch, bro! To be fair though, Ireland COULD be walked to.... back in the low water days, so people DID walk there and then inbred themselves when the water level rose back up again. BUT.... some dudes who wanted to get away from the B.S. could watch the paths of birds, or imagine the mystery of where the sun sets, or wonder where the wind comes from, or see the effects of a volcano erupting (Iceland) and then "know" there is "somewhere" to go to. Walrus-skin boats CAN cross the North Atlantic, but you have to pull them out and camp at night on ice floes and do repairs and make adjustments. There is a ton of meat to eat along the way also hanging out around the ice floe islands where everyone has to sleep at night. It could be done in a skin boat, so it probably was done..... by adventurous young men, who have always explored and discovered everything about the world, and everything else for that matter. They didn't go back and share their knowledge, because why would you?
Northern Irish built the Titanic they where always some master ship builders.

Early north European fishermen are known to have ventured as far as the Grand Banks.
The Vatican mentioned that this was gifted to English fishing fleets as early as the fourteenth century.

We reached it in about 600bc too. Although to be fair, we were more Celt/Iberian back then.
I'm not aware of any evidence of that, but I certainly wouldn't discount it out of hand.
Absolutely possible. I wonder if many of the people in America are descendants of pre columbian ancestors

If you believe that the Vikings made it, then you have to believe their own words. The Irish were there before in the 6th century.
I heard that too.
I'm from the northeastern US, and I think that some people from the British Isles or Europe were here a long time ago. Way before St. Brendan's time.
You see, there are ruins in this part of America, mostly hidden deep in the woods, that are unlike anything in other parts of the Americas. They are strikingly similar to things found across the Atlantic.
We have standing stones, we have stone structures, we have dolmans, we have mounds. But, none of these have ever really been studied. None have been dated. These things were already here when the first colonists came, and when asked,the local tribes said they didn't make them.
I've been coming across these places since I was a kid, but only as an adult watching British archaeological shows, did I see the similarities in construction. It's so obvious.
Could you name or pinpoint any of these places
Ah, that's the Red Paint Peoples... Originally came up from Iberia into France, Denmark and Ireland. So, you could say that the Irish even beat St. Brendan to it!
@@ancientbuilds3764 aren't the red paint peoples actually neanderthals and hybrids that lived through the younger dryas by using red ochre to protect themselves from the solar flares and UV radiation?

...because native people in Massachusetts were unable to pile up rocks around a small cave or hole and build a place to store corn, gear, etc. Yes Thor Heyerdahl, it must have been the superior Europeans who sailed there in a crude boat, that's more likely. No seriously, that theory was debunked by legitimate anthropologists / archeologists in the 1950's. It's actually considered quite racist.
I read in a Science Magazine, some years ago that some Scientist were examining some old houses in Ireland & noticed that the type of timber was North American & not European. They did some Dendrite Tests & found that the dates ranged from the 6th. Century through to the 11th. Century. The investigated some early Maritine Logbooks & found that Some ships were logging voyages from say, Dublin to Liverpool but the journey was taking three or more months & the Cargo was Cords of Timber. The surmised that the Ships weren't going to Liverpool & back as recorded, but to America. The whereabouts of the where Cargo came from was kept secret.
That sounds absolutely fascinating. Do you remember any more details that might help with locating that article again?

Very interesting. Is there also any evidence that Madoc went to America in 562AD?

No,Madog went to America centuries later in 1170.
@@cymro6537 are you familiar with the work of Wilson and Blackett? Their book "the King Arthur Conspiracy" in particular proposes that the Madoc of myth lived in the 6th century, was from Morganwg and a brother of King Arthur aka Athruis ap Meurig.

I have not! But that certainly sounds like it would lend credence to this theory.
Do you have any information or links on the topic

Tim Severin built the ox hide boat and replicated Brendans voyage in it with some maties. Read his book, The Brendan Voyage.
A very interesting read
Certainly got to Iceland before the Norsemen. Maybe Greenland too ?
Bristol traders were most likely visiting North America in the 1460s.

There are Ogham carvings In North America, we also know there is significant Gaelic DNA in Iceland. Much of the history we are taught appears to be bunk.
Irish slaves. And as my Icelandic college said about the women. We kept the good looking ones.
The problem with the possible American ogham stones is that the are giverish. In ireland it can be read. The writing is a known system but nothing on the Americas makes sense
There would be Gaelic DNA in Iceland. The Vikings reputedly (I've not researched this myself) had the habit of taking women from Ireland and Scotland as both wives and slaves.
The Vikings did like to rob Irish monasteries.
I remember that explorer sailing to prove that Brendan arrived in Americas.
He proved it was possible.
Not that it actually happened.
Personally, I think he did, but there is reasonable doubt.
Tim Severin, using the same techniques and tools
The Phoenicians are supposed to have also reached America in antiquity, long before the Vikings and St. Brendan and his crew of fellow monks.
Except we don't have even written accounts of such a journey ever undertaken by the phonecians.
@@alangervasiswhat about the Michigan copper ingots found in the shipwrecks of the Phoenicians in The Mediterranean? And if you want a written record there is The Book of Mormon.
The Book of Mormon !!!😂😂😂
The Phoenician may have visited or lived in Ireland, as they visited the South coast of England.
@@rconger24 The Phoenicians were not good navigators and there is no proof they ever crossed the ocean, but they were merchants and could have traded goods for items imported by others. I hear sunflower seeds have been found on Roman ships in the Mediterranean too.
Brendan out here looking for more eyes of Crom.
It is already know in the Faroe islands were first discovered by the Ireland, for on the Faroe islands they had a stamp to recall this last year or the year before.
When the Vikings arrived later they were told of the land in the West by the early Irish settlers, and the same thing happened with Iceland, with the arrived there first and then the Vikings later arrived and were told of the great land in the West (America)
Columbus was in Galway, Ireland a long time later to find out more of this voyage to the New World, he took a different root thought he has over sailed and thinking he had landed in India, later the name of The West Indies was given to the group of islands.
Thank you, thank you, superb. Hate to admit I was only aware of Columbus and Vespucci, both in the 1400s. So really interesting.
I think you will like American Gods by Neil Gaiman :)
Where did you find accounts of the Norse meeting Irish monks in North America? You would think it would be mentioned in the sagas or christin scriptures.
Stop
because there ARE no such accounts, Mr Blue, you are absolutely right
There are written accounts, The Navigatio provides information on the voyage by Brendan the Navigator, Tim Severin used it as a guide.
The White Sands footprints are 23,000 years old - probably pre-Irish.
If you visit the town Galway on the west course of Ireland you find a stature commemorating the visit of columnist who they say discovered the Americas in b the 14th century. In a church there was documents from the time of St brendan where columnist spend weeks studying the documents telling of the lands to the west of Ireland.
It is likely that there were many visitors to North America prior to Columbus and even the Vikings in the millennia before them, but that they have not been historically verified. The Bretons were known to have fished on the Grand Banks off Newfoundland and there is a suggestion that a Welsh voyager, Madoc, may have made it to the Americas. Thor Heyerdahl's Ra voyages show that even the Egyptians could have made the crossing many thousands of years before that. Of course, there is also some evidence that Europeans may have crossed the Atlantic during the Ice Age, over twenty thousand years ago. So, it's not so far fetched to think that Brendan could have made the trip too.
The Egyptians were there ,there are Egyptian carvings in the grand canyon
The biggest block to believing the Irish didn't reach America first is anti-Irish/anti-Catholic bigotry from Britain. The Vikings learned about seafaring and navigation from Irish missionaries in Scandinavia which included enlarging their currach in the form of longships. Tim Severin proved this in the 1970s. Also, it doesn't fit the Protestant narrative of the USA.
Prince Madoc of Wales also went over to America and there are stones with Cymric Welsh on them.
You would think there would be some kind of account of any early Irish monks in North America by the indigenous peoples. There is some evidence in New England with unexplained stoneworked areas and structures that may be Celtic influenced.
To be fair, I don't think there are any indigenous accounts of the Vikings arriving, and yet we know for a certainly that they did arrive there.
Unfortunately the European new arrivals have over the past two century's spent more time trying to iradicate the Indigenous tribes for greedy financial gain rather than showing any interest in the origins & history of the Indiginous peoples & done thier best to iradicate Americas true History & the moneyteristic Government still continues to pay lip service rather than investigate America's true wealth??
Stones with ancient Ogham Irish Gaelic alphabet (4TH-6TH century) letters on them have been found
The Paradise of Birds could have been the islands of St Kilda, but that also would lie on the arc joining Ireland to America in fact probably more on route than the Faeroes. Anyone living on the coast of ireland would have been aware of the large number of nesting seabirds, eg today there's 75,000 nesting Gannets on Skellig Michael off the Dingle Peninsula. St Kilda has similar if not even greater numbers of Gannets and other seabirds (I've visited both Skellig Michael and St Kilda myself)

Enjoyable story, well told, but those cherries are *very* carefully picked.
My favourite bit is calling superficial similarities between Columbus' description of *the Bahamas* and Brendan's "description" of (presumably) *Newfoundland* "evidence".
Also the claim that a stopover by a peripatetic monk is the cause of introduction of domestic sheep to the Faroes.
Hi Stephen, thanks for the comment.
I wasn’t comparing the description of Brendan’s island with Columbus’ description of the Baharmas. I only mentioned Columbus in the sense of that general era of history.
Whether Brendan himself introduced sheep or not is frankly beside the point and skirts around the point of the video.
The evidence found on the Faroe Islands shows that settlers had reached them by that time. There is no getting round that this ties in well with the record of a voyage that appears to have stopped off at those very islands at that very time. The record of Brendan explicitly shows that he was not the only one making that journey, so his personal circumstances, such as his position as a peripatetic mon, are irrelevant.
Is there a reason that this video has skyrocketed in views recently? Was it posted on some popular website or something?
such is the way of the youtube algorithm. doesn't have to be any other reason. btw. according to wilson/brackett, the welsh also went to north america in the 6th century...a couple decades earlier, I believe.
I’m canadian of Irish descent on both sides. This is fascinating
@@meatsaxs5203 I'm glad you found it fascinating!
Excellent deduction 👍
Thank you!
Why do people mention the lie, that Columbus reached mainland America?
He did not !
The closest he ever got was when he landed on the island of Cuba.
He never set foot of mainland America in all his 4 voyages there looking for spices.
I like the book by Tim Severin, where he wrote of his journey, tracing the steps of St. Brendon. The book was called, 'The Voyage of St. Brendon', and it covered many aspects that St Brendon covered in his book, 'The Chronicles of St. Brendon'.
Tim Severin's book was evidence that St. Brendon did in fact make that journey.
Very convincing argument. I have read the Tim Severin account and would recommend it. A much different version from that of Christy Moore.
Nice story. Another piece of the puzzle of humanity!
What did they bring back, what church is it in to be dated?
The Irish Church 400-700 CE operated seperately from the Church of Rome.
had no connection to Rome
Very convincing!
I’m glad you thought so!
St kilda could also match the paradise of birds description although longer leg to iceland
Very insightful. The Phoenicians sold tobacco and cocaine to the Egyptians 4,000 years ago.
They also provided Cedar wood.
If you look at the Trade Winds, the winds going from Africa to Brazil, there was a Phoenician colony on the coast of Africa. At the point where the trade winds reach Europe from the Americas, there is a lighthouse on the Northern Coast of Spain. Interesting stuff.
@@blueocean2510 Cedar trees are native to Lebanon...?
I think that he did make it to North America , totally plausible and the written account matches exactly what you'd see if you made the same journey
I want this to be true because I am about half Irish.
By the time the Vikings got to Ireland Ogham had been out of use for hundreds of yrs.
There is considerable evidence for the Norse and the Irish. More legendary are voyages of the Welsh and West African
The language of the Duhare tribe was allegedly similar to Irish Gaelic.
That’s very interesting. Thanks for commenting!

No linguistic proof of celts being mixed in with the natives has been found.
Are you aware that the celtic cross way procedes Christianity and allows both longititude and latitude be calculated? A couple of originals celtic crosses were discovered in the Egyptian pyramids.

@@ryanmassey586 Can you let me know where they are mentioned in medieval Irish literature?

The answer to your question is "No". But they could have reached Iceland, in skin boats (Currachs), after a sustained volcanic eruption that showed them that there was a place to reach, how far away it was, and in what direction. Inspired/driven monks could do it. Giant plumes of smoke and ash are easy trail-markers to follow. And Eskimo/Inuit people have paddled to Scotland and Ireland historically in kayaks from Greenland. They are the source of the "silkie" legends.....people who can turn into seals and vice-versa. Bottom line is that the first people in the Americas came from Asia, and across the Pacific using boats, possibly before the last ice-age. Ironically, the words "Currach" (skin boat stretched over a wooden frame) and "Kayak" (skin boat stretched over a wooden frame) stem from the same ancestral word dating back to deep antiquity, so that's pretty interesting, right? How is that possible?
It's a fact they were in Iceland first where several place-names refer to them. I was told this by an Icelander in 1970.
@@daraorourke5798 I'm pretty sure that I've read that when the Norse arrived in Iceland, Irish monks were already there. But as for the Irish reaching the American shore, nobody knows. It's not impossible. It would've been a great adventure. There are true accounts of red-headed Eskimos, but that could have come from later-day whalers. There are also a large body of Algonkin legends that seem as if derived from Indo European myths.....so that could be a clue about anonymous, unrecorded contacts with European peoples. But whether that comes from the Greenland Norse or from other earlier contacts,....that's up for grabs to be discovered.
I think it was mostly one way. Do you have any evidence of eskimos in Ireland arriving on kayaks?...
@@artseosamhogriobhta Scotland and the Faroes, yes. It's a pretty major, undiscussed reality. They didn't colonize, but men and women both arrived in skin kayaks.

The Vikings encountered Irish monks on Iceland not North America
I heard the Vikings found obvious remnants the Irish had been in Iceland before them. Does anyone suspect that some of them went to Vineland.

@@calebhowells1116 I was half asleep when I made that comment. No, the Kolbrin which allegedly came from the MiqMaqs who also allegedly spoke a form of Welsh.

@@gerardtimings5625they didn't speak a form of Welsh for no reason.

America was actually known as the great land of Ireland even long before Saint Brendan before Christianity.
This is noted in our folklore and handed down through generation to generation.
Interesting as st brendan is said to have followed the 'voyage of the teyrn'. With the teyrn being the high king of britain its exciting to think what our welsh/british forefathers acheived!
That claim originates with Arthurian researchers Wilson and Blackett. I have never been able to find such a statement myself. However, what is interesting is that the guide who took Arthur to 'Avalon' was said to have been St Barinthus, and it is this exact same figure who tells Brendan of the mysterious land across the ocean (i.e. America) in the Voyage of St Brendan. So I do think that there was likely a connection between the two voyages, although Brendan's probably occurred first.
@@calebhowells1116 we'll have to find the primary reference, but i've no doubt wilson and blackett are right, as the 'teyrn' is the british monarch. This tells me that it was the british who got there first. But as you say we need to find the reference to make it rock solid😉
Prince Madog’s voyage to the new world was used by Elisabeth I as justification for claiming sovereignty over all of North America was it not? But great to know our Celtic cousins made it there too and not surprised this great achievement was never recognised.
There were Irish High Kings and some of their lands stretched over to Britain. Never heard of a British High King
@@seanochroidheain6687 Arthur was referred to as the ‘Primo Thalmus ‘ of Britain by a Papal emissary I believe?

It was the descendants of Nimrod and the Medes who arrived first in Central America.
you are right omec people came from tower of babel hope people can start see how it fits together
@@rickyodom1201 Yep! I have it all almost figured out: Enough with all of the disinformation. Neanderthals are Eurasians and Denisovans are a mix of Eurasians and Sino Canaanite tribe of Sinim with the D y-hg in Asia and or the House of Nimrod with the C y-hg both of which are Hamitic.
Evidence shows that Native Americans crossed the Atlantic to Central America from the Mediterranean Sea. There are four or more haplogroup lineages that show this migration route, the A C&D maternal lineages and the Q paternal lineage as well as probably the C paternal lineages made this same crossing.
People are ignoring actual known human history. The actual historical records and DNA migrations show that everyone spread out from Mesopotamia. Ancient history is essential for everyone to know, especially the sixteen original civilizations… from the sixteen grandsons of Noah. We should learn ancient history before trying to learn science.
1. The first inhabitants of Italy (K) Tubal
2. Thracians (L) Tiras
3. Greek sea people (T) Javan
4. Siberians & East Asians (NO) Magog
5. Eastern Europeans & East Eurasians (P) Meshek
6. Medes (Q) Madai
7. Western Europeans (R) Gomer
8. Hebrews and Arabic (IJ) Arphaxad
9. Elamites (H) Elam
10. Assyrians (G) Asshur
11. Arameans (F1) Aram
12. Lydians (F2) Lud
13. Cushites (AB, C) Cush
14. Egyptians (E3) Mitzrayim
15. Canaanites (E2, D) Canaan
16. Original North African Phoenicians (E1) Phut
The D paternal haplogroup Sino descendants of Canaan migrated from Canaan east to China all the way to Japan and Tibet. The C paternal haplogroup descendants of Nimrod migrated as far as South Asia, Australia, the Pacific, Mongolia and all the way to the Americas accounting for the Olmec civilization in Central America as well as the Q haplogroup descendants of Madai ancestor of the Medes that crossed the Atlantic to Central America.
The A maternal mtDNA haplogroup belonging to the Semitic N lineage accompanied the Eurasian Q paternal haplogroup to Central America. The C&D maternal haplogroups belonging to the Eurasian M lineage also accompanied the Atlantic crossing of the Q paternal haplogroup Medes and probably the C paternal haplogroup to Central America. The Semitic B maternal mtDNA haplogroup seems to have crossed the Pacific Ocean to South America.
The Mediterranean paternal R1b and the maternal X2a also found in Galilee represent another Atlantic crossing of the Phoenicians in the days of King Solomon considering also the Mediterranean paternal Y chromosome haplogroups of T, G, I1, I2, J1, J2, E and B in addition to the R1b in Native American Populations. J1 and J2 is Arabs and Jews. (I1 is most likely Dan and I2 resembles the movements of the tribe of Asher)
Of course there is also the Cohen modal haplotype of J1 P58 as well which identifies the IJ lineage of Hebrews and Arabs that are descended from Arphaxad. J2 M172 is the largest group of descendants probably of the House of the kings David and Solomon. Now you know a lot more of what is verified human history.
Neanderthals were Eurasians descended from Japheth and Denisovans are a mix of Eurasians and Canaanites and or Cushites descended from Ham. We know this because people living today have Neanderthal and Denisovan DNA.
The mtDNA lineage of the out of Africa claim goes from African to Eurasian and then to Semitic while the Y chromosome lineage goes from African to Semitic and then Eurasian. So according to that Africans produced Semitic males and Eurasian females who then produced Eurasian males and Semitic females. *The reality is that all of these lineages had to have existed simultaneously.*
The strongest evidence in my opinion is the presence of Duendes in Mexico. Duendes are Mexican gnomes, there's a lot of footage on the interwebs. They are very similiar to leprechauns except they speak spanish and eat spicy foods. They even wear the same pointy hats! Its seems obvious to me the leprechauns must of stowed away on the leather Irish boats and then jumped ship when they made landfall. They then migrated to Mexico, because, because I don't know why but thats where they went. There are plenty of videos of them on the interwebs and they are all real!
many millions lived in nth sth america before it was "discovered"
I have you down as the next chancellor of our University, your intellect is way beyond our present one, our present one does not exist, neither do you.
I'm sure you didn't discount the original people on purpose but you did not consider them. The first people to reach North America were most likely of Asian origin. They came perhaps 50,000 years ago via a land bridge that would have connected Alaska to Russia. North America was completely inhabited long before anyone from Europe came in the past two millennium. Having said that I would assume that it was very likely if not surely true that Irish people came here in the 6th century or perhaps before.

I wonder. Is there ANY, and I say ANY proof whatsoever to substantiate the delusional propositions in this column??
Hi, thank you for commenting! Did you watch the video? 🙂
So I have Google Earth installed on my phone, but the app is hidden!! lol They might have reached N America but they need to leave or be American!
Irish were really reglious until the English invaded Ireland in 10th century thet were druids
Those Irish followed in the steps of St Patrick. But things changed.
@@pinkiesue849 no they didn't lol Irish were druids and Catholic until 1155 when English invaded Ireland with pope permission ti invade Ireland from Vatican because Irish still cellabrated pageb druids beliefs lol no proof st Patrick ever lived
until archaeologists start considering "stories" like native american lore, celtic tales, the bible.... this will all just remain a nice story. i hope as we become more aware of our roots that stories will be discouvered as reality.
Archaeologist study the material record - not folklore and legends. If there was material evidence it would be found.
Next the Irish will claim to have been first to the moon
we were
We were
buzz aldin momon on the moon lol
Your 'island hopping' theory is all dependant on the assumption that the Celts knew the Atlantic was void of other islands. The fact is that the Celts (and others) knew absolutely that over the horizon were a plurality of islands and the Otherworld (an ancient concept) was populated with all manner of inhabitants. The sailors at the time sailed without maps and had no concept of the North Atlantic's shape. And, importantly, the Voyages of St Brendan are a compendium of earlier stories of a similar nature. This is the Immram literature of Old Irish. The evidence for this collected-stories blended into one (St Brendan) is overwhelming.
Thanks for the comment. Unfortunately, we actually know from Gildas that the western ocean was viewed as unnavigable in the sixth century. So, yes, island hopping *around* the western ocean actually makes perfect sense with what we know.
It's true that the Celts had a concept of the Otherworld as an island far in the western ocean. But that does not mean that they believed you could just sail right to it, straight across the ocean.
We know that the story of Brendan's voyage has been around since at least the eighth century, just two centuries after his lifetime. It's true that many scholars like to use later medieval Irish material to try to reconstruct what legends may have existed in ancient Ireland, but such work is highly speculative. It may be, in fact, that those other 'mythological' style legends actually come from the historical discoveries of Brendan, rather than the story of Brendan coming from those stories blended together.
@@calebhowells1116 Being unnavigable means what? People had been sailing all along Europe's western coasts for a considerable time before the Brendan epic. Being unnavigable means boats cannot survive in dangerous waters. That is simply not the case. They may have gone out and got lost or been sunk by storms, but a huge area without obstructions is not unnavigable. :)
Apparently the Pope founded Australia when he arrived on a giant golden barge
😮😆😂
The Irish weren't the first. My ancestors were here long before.
Who are your ancestors and where were they from? Thanks
Highly unlikely.
HISTORICAL REVISIONISM 🦅🦅🦅🦅 Non-factual. Fantasies of the Master Race stuff. The Irish were No Where near the Americas in that time. Theories are Not Facts. Rewriting Facts is denial. As a person that has studied in meticulous detail: American Indian history, politics, material culture, languages, religions, cultures, anthropology etc. for over 20 years, I find this kind of thing remarkably ignorant and ficticious. If the Irish had 'landed' it would be well embodied in the 'oral traditions' and 'dialects' of Native peoples on Turtle Island. Where in the historical records is the facts to back up these claims? Historical Revisionism is extraordinary in all of it's attempts to erase from genetic memory the facts of time and place in the human experience 🦅 🟥🟨⬛️⬜️ 🦅. Aho
Razor thin, my boy.
I suppose the native Americans or at the time Asians got their first
when add new dna it tends to be on top while older dna is pushed down or out there test that show asian dna is not that old as far as ice bridge try to cross with just pointy stick with rock hello lunch
I HOPE NOT.
WHY???
Americans on your channel are telling an Irish person whi knows history and archeology about history
Sorry, I’m not sure I follow what you mean. Could you explain that again?
@@calebhowells1116 Americans don't know all irish history u just need ti look up irish history druids were still around in 6th century druids beliefs carried on in Ireland until Britain invaded Ireland ti get rid of druids beliefs in 1500
No it was the Welsh. Diolch
Vikings brought slaves there
No , cos the brits wud hv buried that story altogether
Iomramh Maoile Dhúin
There were people in North America for around 30,000 years before any of this possibly happened.
They arrived on the Cruise ship Orlando from Spain 30,000 yrs ago,
Read manuscripts for what they are. Legends
All ancient documents were written on manuscripts. How do you decide which ones are legends and which ones are legitimate historical accounts?
You study history and historical methodology
@@janjordal9451 Indeed, and I have spent years doing that. :) One can only determine whether a record describes real events or not by looking at the source in question and comparing it with the facts.
I'm sure lots of our European ancestors did manage to reach America, including the vikings. However the groups that would have went and stayed would have been small. One to two boths max. Small groups would have either died out over there or assimilated themselves into the local population. None of these voyages would have been recorded bar by educated monks like you refer to in your video.
We know that the Vikings were able to maintain a settlement and record their journey, so why couldn’t the Irish?
@@calebhowells1116 Something not mentioned here is that Brendan made the trip because a Monk from an existing settlement in " America " came back and asked Brendon to visit. Also he left from Wales . ( All Gaelic speakers were at times called Irish. ) 😄
@@AlanMcKinnon-xc8vnthat is interesting
No.
Sorry... logic is not proof.
Salutreans got there first. Iberians for the win
in other words phoecieans which was one there many colony's
Vikings kidnapped there irish as slaves and brought thek ti Iceland as slaves sold them ore kept them as there iwn slaves uo ti date vikings dna high in irish dna lol
not so, the Irish monks were all over the place, not just in Scotland but also Europe, they brought Christianity to Europe after the Romans left, probably were the first to populate Iceland as there is evidence of the Monks being there. You could learn to write properly before you enter this world, maybe you were a slave yourself you little crackhead.
the irish were the first slaves brought to America England would give them a way
And where did you spring from, the bottom of a Viking Boat most likely cleaning it out with your well used tongue, there are always little shixxts like you who crawl up out of all kinds of holes to interact with us real folk and cause all kinds of problems for mankind. can you remember who you are or where you are from, or did you read it all in a book, a book written by the Devil himself, yours Ragnor
