Here in Galicia we still have those Celtic roundhouses still standing and being used as houses, such as in Os Ancares and in Vale de Poldros. Not only, but Romano-Celtic Britons did settled here in Galicia as well, during the Anglo-Saxon conquest of the British Isles, they settled in the northernmost part of our region, giving it the name of Britonia.
@Jordi_Llopis_i_Torregrosa96 saying that is the same as saying the Bretons in France are not brythonic but gallo-romance in terms of genetics Perhaps you should look more deep into the origins of the different native peoples of the Iberian peninsula
@@Survivethejive hope you will enjoy the place, it is quite similar to Britain and Ireland in some ways, though also very french.

Just imagine our ancestors living like this. So much respect these folk must of had a clearer view on things that matter. Thank you to them for being strong enough to allow me the privilege to have had the experiences I've had good and bad.
I think that tin mining in Cornwall was big business up until the late 1800s when it finished Cornish miners went all over the world taking their skills with them
It'd be so much fun hanging out with you during one of your sojourns. I love Celtic History and Celtic lore. My favorite era is definitely Bronze Age Europe. It feels like a time of great promise (retrospectively, of course). I also like that they had such a close relationship with Nature.
Thanks for another beautiful production, as you walked the grounds one gets the sense of the soil, stones and the elements calling out "remember those who once walked these grounds before you".
The technology and solutions ancient people used to solve their problems always seem so brilliant and elegant, melding with their surroundings. Great video as always!
Celts always have fascinated me as they do everyone. When I thought of converting to a Pagan religion, I chose between the Germanic religion of my Paternal line, or the Celtic one of my Maternal line. I still learn about Celtic religion whenever I can and I sacrifice to my Celtic ancestors during ancestor veneration as well as my Germanic ones. Hey Tom, if you read this I'd like your opinion on something. I noticed some stark parallels between the Indo-European horse twins and the story of Lewis and Clark. Two men go from the West to the East as ordered by a leader, they save a kidnapped woman, one dies and one becomes a leader, both are revered as the founders of new lands to be settled by a people. This synopses applies to both stories. Not to mention that Jefferson was the leader who sent Lewis and Clark on their expedition, and Jefferson is also the one who proposed American identity to be descended from Hengest and Horsa - the divine horse twins of the Anglo-Saxons. Is this a huge coincidence or could there be more to it?
The village I am from was once a celtic castrum, not much remains of it though, apart from some very old, short, stone walls along the roads of the surrounding woods. The main reason for it though is that the place never stopped being inhabited, the same place where Celts and Romans once lived in, is still occupied today, and who knows how long before them it was already inhabited for.
THE TWEED RETURNS. Thought your presentation delivery best I've seen from you here. You brought the attunement of the environment alive by narrating your own phenomenology on the day.
You'll need several million in party Tory party donations and lots of extra to lobby for mass immigration to inflate their price. Call them new builds and charge over the odds.
Thank you for making this documentary. I absolutely adore the Iron Age. Something so mysterious and haunting about this period of history. The Iron Age is almost like a Dark Age before the Dark Ages, a Dark Age after the Heroic Age of Bronze. The Iron Age really touches my heart because this is when Britain became Britain, and Ireland became Ireland. This is when the modern cultural ethnogenesis of this corner of the world truly began, in this seemingly temporally isolated and foggy remnant of history. Of course the Anglo-Saxons were equally as important with their cultural and genetic input, but their world wasn't shrouded with the fog of time, mystery, and break-down of global trade and commerce that the world of the Iron Age existed in.
Tom, if we go by Celtic From the West as favoured by Cunliffe and Koch, there may be some continuity from the Beaker People into the Celts in the Bronze Age. These people seem to have considered the earlier megalithic structures as sacred to the ancestors, they were still important to the Celts. Also, there actually is evidence that Celtic grain stores sometimes featured the remains of people and their bones, perhaps sacrificed, perhaps ancestors somehow put in with the grain as in the soil, as with the produce of the earth. So, there sometimes IS ritual practice with Celtic food stores. Not much of a neo-pagan myself, just wanted to leave this comment with some extra info.
Celtic from the West is wrong, although the modified version which includes parts of East-Central France as the celtic homeland as well as central Europe is plausible. The Atlantic bronze age culture was not Celtic although those people did adopt Celtic languages eventually. Therefore of course some parts of the BA culture survived into the IA. As for the megaliths, the BA people actively vandalised many of them. It was probably only later in the IA that people began to incorporate megalithic monuments into Celtic myths.
@@Survivethejive Interesting points. You’re referring to Patrick Sims-Williams? Celtic from the Centre? How do you consider it wrong exactly? You’re probably disagreeing with the pushing of Celtic (language if nothing else) too far into the Early BA? I certainly think the idea of a BA Celtic movement into the West from Central Europe may have been followed by an increased “re-Celticisation” from the West in the Late BA moving into the IA. Was there widespread vandalisation in the BA? I expect that as the Indo-Europeans spent more and more time in these Western land we gradually can expect less aggressive views towards the earlier people, such that they become one in the IA.
There are quite a few round farm steadings in my area of North East Scotland. I would guess they are around 2 or 3 hundred years old and made from local red sandstone, but possibly rebuilt from the ground up on something much much older.
I wonder how related the ancient Cornish use of stone as a building material is to their abundance of tin mining spoil, as well as all available timber possibly being used in the smelting process? Maybe they had no choice.
There are houses in Cornwall that are less than 150 years old that are built with tin mine spoil, and brick built buildings are extremely rare except for railway stations.
Hey bro can you name some traditional dances of England and some traditional ceremonies and clothes thanks and also its good that your protecting our culture
As far as ¡ know, you got more Celtic village ruins if you are interested along the north and the middle of Iberian peninsula.., and some of them in very good state of conservation,..
Excellent, this is my favourite kind of videos from you. I heared you were going to Brittany this summer, if you have the time and the possibility, try to look for the Bronze Age barrows of the Armorican Tumulus Culture. This Bronze Age culture showed continuity with the Bearker culture and was closely tied to the contemporary Wessex Culture, another proof that connections between Britain and Brittany greatly precede the Migration Era
It's also the Tumulus where the most impressive grave goods of the Armorican Tumulus culture were found but sadly they're now in the national musuem of archeology in Saint-Germain-en-Laye near Paris.
Speaking of Ancient Celts, I've recently been reading about the ancestory of the Welsh, and it seems people from the North of Wales are closely related to the Basque. Do you have any intention on diving into the origin of the Welsh or an immediate thoughts?
Hail mr Jive! Sad story to tell about Torrington where you have visited before - over the past year and a half we have been hit with a severe drought the likes of which we have never seen before. The rivers and streams are the lowest they've ever been and the earth is so dry it's almost like sand. Farmland losing it's colour and looking quite patchy. I fear the gods must want humans out of this sacred land.
Our fogou’s were very unlikely to be grain stores! 😆 you need air flow for ANY underground cold storage space. One for in flow, one for out flow! Our fogou’s do not have this! Without this grain/food wood just go mouldy.
Thomas do you know what the basis is for designating Gothic as an 'East Germanic' language and not a 'North Germanic' language? Given it came from Sweden? I suppose owed to the language drift between Crimean Gothic and Swedish. But what makes East Germanic distinct from North and West I wonder
Nice place...well preserved... if we take in consideration when it was built... i know a place with the same style of houses... stone round houses, among the huge granitic stones, along the hill... one of them has a spiral carved...

I am equally fascinated in the history of Cornwall as with the rest of the British Isles. One of my ancestors came from the Somerset area and his surname was Sims( originally Symme and other older variants ). Interestingly his ancestors were largely from Cornwall and Wales. He was a captain of a merchant ship during the 1700’s and lived on Antigua Island ( with his wife and children) in the Caribbean…his grave is there. Thanks for this very interesting video…I learned so much. Cheers from Alabama, USA ! 🇺🇸 🇬🇧🏴🏴🇮🇪🏴
I'm glad you mentioned the fact that, a lot of Britions from Devon and Cornwall went to Brittany. When you head to Brittany you can definitely see a similarity in the people of the south west England. Also some of the Gauls retreated to the south coast of England in the roman invasion I hear.
I’m a Berber from algeria and the French colonisers suffered loads of rebellions from the Berbers so they thought we were a lost Celtic tribe in North Africa
Near where I live, in south-west Germany, there are holes in the ground that are associated with the Celts and were allegedly used to store food with the same principles as the fogous.
The shots in and around the fogou are really atmospheric. I always imagine Celtic Britain to be dark and rainy (or more so than it is now lol) so the weather of most of the footage you've filmed fits perfectly with the picture I have in my head
over the past year and a half we have been hit with a severe drought the likes of which we have never seen before. the rivers and streams are the lowest they've ever been and the earth is so dry it's almost like sand.
