Again, not a whole lot of art for the Dagda, and there's no unifying description for him.

A little bit more about the Dagda's club. It was said to have a single wheel built into it so that he could pull it around, and so large was the wheel that wherever he pulled it it tilled the ground beneath, causing crops to grow. For this reason, he was seen as somewhat of a fertility god.
Not really, the wheel was meant to represent his dominion over the thunder and rain, just like Taranis in Gaul was featured with a wheel and Iuppiter was given wheel shaped cakes.
It took me awhile to get in touch with the Dagda, but now I see him as a mighty and loving father figure, since I lost touch with my own dad decades ago. He's kind and strong and encouraging.
a fighter, a cook and a musician, a fellow of diverse skills
*husbando material
And he look like hagrid
All those skills are closely related.
The best skills
Xxx X8 thanks
He looks like a really sweet guy and one hell of a drinking partner.
Why, thank you! 🤗
He looks like he would help you move your couch upstairs
That's the first thing I thought when I saw him.
Sláinte!
Just don't let him near your wife 😅
"Other tales however are far more incredible .." He says after talking about a flying harp killing 9 men and then playing three songs that make people weep, laugh and sleep.
GG, Dagda OP, plz nerf
Acording to my scale he is stil one of the weaker head gods in mythologys. Because most others like Ra crated the whole universe.
@@cherechesalexdaniel811
It's possibile that the Dagda did it too.
But for obvious reasons the christian monks ignored this fact like many other aspects of the character
Best myth is his giant nuts would hang out and in view as he walked by being gigantic himself giving everyone that sweet sweet upskirt angle
So many unconnected ancient cultures with such similar tales, certainly food for thought.
You don't see the Patriarchy at work ????
Most of the cultures with the Allfather + Pantheon thing are Indo-European, and likely share a common origin. Zeus, Jupiter, Odin, Indra, and Dagda are probably all derived from the same character, back before the Indo-European migration all over the world.
Pantheons from non-Indo-European cultures are pretty darn different. In Japanese Shinto, the highest deity is Ameratsu, a mother goddess of the sun.
First of all, it's Amaterasu. Get it right you hack.
And second, Ammy is certainly the most prominent but she isn't the highest order. Above her are the divine pair Izanagi- and Izanami-no-Ookami, who among their accomplishments count the creation of the whole of the Japanese archipelago and birthing most of the other Gods - Ammy included. And above them there's yet another deity (or pantheon of deities, there isn't much on these louts so it's a toss-up) powerful enough to tell Nagi and Nami to get down and shag it up. Get it right you hack!
+Náisiúnaí na hÉireann The connection is the unknown source of their mythology, the cultures themselves were not. The point I was making.
Similar concepts but differing characters. Basically the same archetype but incarnate in different manifestations and stories
I hope you cover Cernunnos next. He's my favorite deity from celtic mythology so far.
That formless blob who thinks a virgin witch is good civilization, that same Cernunnos?
I AM ALIVE !!!!! This one.
@@bingo784 lol, what are you on about?
@@Arthurian_Rabbit An anime by the name "Maria the Virgin Witch".
@@bingo784 interesting, I'll have to give it a look.
Saw the thumbnail, first thing that came to mind "Hagrid?"
I guess this guy was the inspiration for Hagrid huh
Hagrid became a god
Interesting theory. Stacks-up...
I loved Exploring Norse Mythology because i've loved that stuff for over two decades but I knew most of it. But Celtic myth is something else. I'm so glad you did this series because I didn't know a ton about it and it's pretty cool. Dagda is pretty awesome.
Sometimes he's as jolly and kind as santa claus, and other times he's the terminator.
Interesting to see the traits and artifacts across the indo-european cultures and see what servives with what roles for which gods.
Absolutely love your channel mate! It’s great to see a growing interest from You-tubers to cover the stories I was told as a child and to see what others gather on them, as Irish mythology is mostly told through stories that are embraced somewhat sparingly on the isle. Also, I had previously checked out your Cthulhu Mythos vids and it definitely helped to paint a better picture of his stories (as to be honest, some of them get a little mucked up with his peculiar writing style) and helped me look at them in new ways!
Seven seals
Seven rings
Seven brides for the scarlet king

Don't get it. °xD
@@Matagu1 In the game Shin Megami Tensei: IV Apocalypse (A 3DS JRPG) You meet Dagda in the game after you are killed and you make a deal with him for him to bring you back to life. The deal is basically to kill God aka YHVH the God from Christianity as well as kill Lucifer and many other Gods and demons from other religions and mythologies.
@@raffleslovecraftfriends8375 Ah okay. Never played that game. Thanks!
@@Matagu1 No problem. It's a great game I recommend checking out if you have the time for it. It's apart of the SMT series the same series as Persona.
can't wait for the next video, loving the Celtic mythology serious please continue.
Please include Welsh, Cornish and other oft overlooked mythology from the Celts. So many focus only on Ireland and Scotland.
Awesome podcast plug too
Thank you! As a new worshipper of the Dagda, I found this helpful, informative, and pleasant to listen to.
Loving your videos ❤
I like how most of your thumbnails is artwork from heroes of Camelot
syanide27 they have another one where the picture of the video is from the video game Smite.
An Daghdha is basically developed from the proto-indo european Dyéus Pháter, the god of skies and time, he who controls weather and lightning.
Who put hagrid in the video?
He’s a Kul Tiran. Bard class confirmed.
😂
Shin Megami Tensei IV Apocalypse brought me here :)
Thanks for inspiring my new d&d character!
This sounds like the Irish legends. Since the Celts originally lived in places from Ireland to Turkey it's likely that their legends and mythology varies a lot.
Although its true that the celts used to span a very large portion of the planet, generally when reffering to celtic in the modern day, it only means Scottish, Irish, Welsh, Cornish and Bretons
Dagda is a God of the Gaels ( Irish)
@Fianna well said, the Celt theory is now considered lingustic
Awesome. Really liking these.
Thank you for telling the tales of THE DAGDA The master is the master, ancient gods hold true.
If they want to find out the truth.. Time for them to admit how great THE DAGDA IS.
Zeus is almost literally the All-Father, being the father or grandfather of most the gods and demi-gods.
The Romans had a god called Dispater which is thought to mean divine father with the dis part of the name possibly deriving from Deus/Zeus. Direct translation would be godfather which is quite appropriate for an Italian god.
@@Catubrannos dispater was the lord of the underworld literally "Father Dis". So equated with Pluto / Hades, not Zeus
Awesome, can you please do videos on Nuada and Lugh, please?
get a load of The Dagda shredding a wicked solo at 2:33
I think the Dagda is the possibly same entity as Freyr and also the Green Man in Medieval Christian architecture and paganism. I also think I met this entity while on a psychedelic trip recently. He was wonderful.
Unironically my ancestor
Ill be honest, i came to this channel for the SCPs, but these videos are just so cool. Keep it up!
Can you do Mannanan Mac Lir next?
Dagda, the good god
1:52 that's not Dagda that's a Hagrid/Shrek hybrid
There's some evidence that Thor (and possibly at an earlier point, Tyr) was once the primary God among the Norse/Germanic people's and that Odin's kingship was a later promotion. The Dagda and his stories sound very similar to Thor. Both pantheons evolved from the same proto-Indo-European pantheon, so it makes sense.
The picture reminds me of Boraicho from Mortal Kombat.
So what's up with so many weapons and artifacts in Celtic myths killing "9 foes with a single blow"? it's mentioned like thrid time in your Celtic series already.
Nine is the old sacred number of the Celts, same way 7 is considered "lucky" across most of Western civilization.
he is literaly the Father of all the Bards.
Just wanna let you know that Celtic mythology does not just include Ireland, there's Scotland Wales, Cornwall a few others
so he's like a wholesome version of daddy Nurgle minus all that disease stuff
I've not seen anything about Braun warrior poet who was listed by a witch and ultimately beheaded and head was said to tell tales
Sounds like Thor on Vacation post stealing the giants beer brewing caldron
My family line runs back to Scotland and it took me a long time to figure this out as no one before me really gave it any thought. So I was wondering what mythology covers my family past?
P Todd celtic pretty much
Gaelic celtic, celt is just a term for a massive group of people connected thru language and culture to some degree, celts went from ireland to spain and from spain all the way to anatolia in turkey
You are more likely to be a brythonic celt. You are a servant of the good.
I think i find it sad that the fate of those fomorians that heared the 3 melodies of the harp.
its like they know there doomed by it then it got enhance by melody of sorrow, as it change to melody of joy I can imagine them laughing, embracing, dancing with tears still on their eyes and finally they heared the melody of slumber a worst fate than death that may give them unknown dream or nightmare for eternity...
The dagda lives on through his kin for all eternity
all praise to the all-father, King Hagrid!
Hail!
Crushing it with the like to dislike ratio
He is basically the Sky Father of the irish.
I might pose the idea if the "Dagda" was a real cheften at one point. The harp was likely a metaphor for his wife, or a strong female he held dear.
Another Celtic god that would be op in Smite. I predict he will be a Guardian or Warrior.
Whos your dagda?
The dagda seems like a cooler version of Thor
I figure if Norse and Celtic gods met, The Dagda and Thor would probably become friends really quick.
It looks like connor McGregor's face on hagrids body
I wanna see Celtic mythology covered in God Of War
An Daghdha was indeed the father of the gods.
Just like, Bórr, Ouranos, Iuppiter and Dyaus Pitr, he developed from the actual Sky Father from the Proto-Indoeuropean Religion.
As the Sky Father, he had control over the weather, which gives him the ability to use the thunder, so he is the actual God of Thunder. The Sky Father among the Indo-Europeans was God of Time, Thunder, Weather.
Im an Irish celt
This guy is the pied piper king... Fuck yeah!
Hagrid
The godfather
You forgot the time Resurrected a kid to kid kill all other gods and kill his friends.
Eochaid Ollathair
What happened to the gods if they died? Is there another place for their souls, or is it a case of if a deity dies, that’s it? Etc...
The Celts believed that a death in our world meant a birth in The Otherworld and vice-versa. So I assume he was reborn in Otherworld (also known as Tir Na Nog).
@@jdrvargo287 thank you
@carolynnewalters4881 You're welcome. Also The Dagda apparently got better after the whole "being dead" thing, since when The Sons of Mil took over Ireland from the Tuatha De Danaan (long story) they made a deal with The Dagda when their crops and herds began to fail.
Since The Sons of Mil thing happened after The Dagda's supposed death, that means he must have somehow recovered. Which is good to know, he seems like a pretty cool figure and I'm sure his wife The Morrigan was happy.
the first abuser of multi-class synergies
An endlessly hungry giant with a magic harp thteatens to smash up some bones? Why does this sound farmiliar? I wonder if any later fairy tales were crudely inspired by this mythology.
The dagrid
80 gallons of melk
You forgot that the Dagda, survived his mortal wound for 80 years while on the throne. He died from the wound after the 80 years were up.
An octopus compared to the largest creature on Earth, the midgard serpent.
@@scottc3668That's a giant octopus with 140 limbs and 4 heads. Show proper respect.
He’s a big guy...
You know? Dagda sounds like a nice fella, probably even husbando material
Listen, if you gpt a bottomless cauldron, you can father all the bastards you want. If none of your kids are going without, and all your mistresses enthusiastically consent, its fine by me.
🍀...........
A club or a hammer?
5:50 Evil hate symbol detected, reported.
What
That painting was made in 1872 fyi
@@hankhill242productions6 I see a blonde white guy with _that_ symbol and he's hammering a guy with slightly darker skin. Any other context is irrelevant.
Really with humans developed documenting much sooner so sad that there's lots we will never know since it was never written
Things like polish mythology since the myths predate written language in Poland it's hard to keep track of them
Its hagrid!
its literally gragas
It’s pronounced ‘die-da’ good video tho
Hagrid wtf 0:11
i cant wait for kratos to kill this god from another realm
I’m here from god of war
Could have explained in short who Formorians are for low IQ people like me… Oblivious to Celtic myths.
Wow see a difference between Norse mythology and Celtic mythology and how much they sound similar well they were worshipped by barbarians back down with the Romans
Advertising viking stuff on a Celtic video? Poor taste.
The Dagda is called the Good God but I dont think he is. A good guy wouldn't cheat on his wife.
Discount God found.
Dime a bleeding dozen.
Never liked the dagda.
@Eivar for not liking something?
@Eivar No reason, just dont.
@Eivar Whats he done right?
Irish mythology is lame
Geralt of Rivia You're lame.
Ironic you say this, considering how much The Witcher series takes from Celtic mythology.
No u just don't get it....
Fuck you... It’s the best I’m not even Irish...
