- Welcome back. Today we will have another video in the Old World Series where we discuss the oldest and most important cities throughout time. Our focus today will be roughly 150 Old World photographs of Belfast, Northern Ireland.
We will briefly discuss the ancient history of Belfast, according to the current narrative, as well as the many renditions of the Belfast Castle which have existed throughout time. We will also focus on the ancient foundations of Belfast and, looking into more modern times, we will discuss the shipbuilding that occurred in Belfast throughout the 1800’s and early 1900’s, including construction of some of the largest and most famous ships to ever exist.
We will wrap up the video thanking those who helped with the channel, specifically Michael Cruchley, and Bryan Goodlander. Thank you all for being here, I’d love to hear your thoughts and comments down below. I will also provide some links to further your research, enjoy!

Jared, I thought you'd like to know that me and another sub/commenter discovered that we live very close and met for coffee. You're helping to bring good people together friend 🙏🏼
Also, @9:30 that totally looks like a giants face 😳 did anyone esee that?
That's pretty awesome. Always appreciate meeting like-minded people but meeting someone from this channel or Jon Levi's would be amazing, lol. I've never met anyone from a RUclips channel but I did find my wife while randomly commenting on a Facebook post back in 2011. We talked for a year and then decided to meet. We already knew after the first few months though. Still happily married and we now have 2 children. 🤗 Holding it down in Southern Louisiana. 💪
@@Peppersfirst nice! It's funny how two people come together. I met my husband right before he deployed for 18 months and then literally the weekend he got back to the states, we happened to met again and now we've been married for 28 years with 3 grown children ❣ it was really nice getting to meet another like minded new friend from this wonderful community that ended up being also in my back yard practically 😊
@@gimomable It's known locally as "Nelson's, Wellington's, or Napoleon's Nose - depending on the individual PoV!
@@reggriffiths5769 oh nice! Thank you for letting me know. I live near Grandfather Mtn. in the applachian mountains of North Carolina and it really does look like an old Indian face but it's not laying like this guy is. Grandfather is upright on the side of a mountain. One day I may get to go to Ireland 🇮🇪, I sure would love to. My ancestral land 😏 at least many generations ago lol
Thanks for the video. I'm from Belfast and have never seen many of the images. However I did laugh at your pronunciation of Lagan as Lagawn. It's Lagan with lag an stressed syllable.
The way they pronounced farset was bad
Another Dome Looking Capital Building! 👀 There seriously everywhere! Even the Archway looks like the “Progress of Civilization Pediment” at the top of the Senate wing of the USA Capital Building. Unreal.
I am starting to become convinced that the Roman Empire quietly became the current and modern day Roman Catholic Empire (Emperors to Popes). And that they are the orchestrators of the previous reset. Running things behind the scenes to this day… 😳
Haha! But I could be crazy. 😋 Love your video Jarid! Beautiful photos as always.
keep up the great work Jarid ;}
Dito... Absolutely Mesmerizing
old photos..looking forward to this 😎
Belfast is such a beautiful City It’s been through a lot and still standing also so many great inventions have come from here and famous people like poets, musicians, sports …. I am so proud to be from Belfast …..
Jarid, great video thank you for sharing. I enjoy the old photographs and thank you for sharing this wonderful history.
Awesome cover photo!!
Thanks for all the great content! Hope you never get bored with it as I know I'll never get tired of listening.
If you stop at 9.33 lol the mountain behind the house is supposedly a fallen giant that Jonathan swift was inspired to write Gulliver's travels. What I was told when at the old docklands in belfast.
O yeh.. Gulliver
That looks like Roman nose mountain in Idaho between the great columbias' Newport wa and Montana.
Fantastic face! Thanks! Have seen too many now for it to be coincidence. The human face is very specific with its' geometries.
It’s known locally as ‘Napoleons Nose’, Cave Hill. if you imagine he’s on his back you can come up his chest onto the chin, then over the lips to his flattened nose, continue up the eye socket is clearly visible before reaching the deep brow with his hat on top!
@@speedster2464 very informative Napoleon Bonaparte is schetching on reality
Lovely work. Thank you Jared! ✨
A week in Belfast and all I remember is an small gathering, a band called "Shine Down" to which I was disgusted, an armored troop carrier with an LRAD on top, the street pavers, the dancers come to relax after work, and everyone thanking me the next day. For what, I don't know.
Fantastic offering bro!
Great video 👍👍👍🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Nice work ❤️ Jarid 👍🙏
This channel is amazing. New sub binge watching!
I'm speaking to you from Belfast, very informative.
Consistently amazing ❤️
Just found this video, great work I really enjoyed it. Love from Belfast, Northern Ireland!
hey man.. i stumbled across your channel when it was just about 500 subs.. been watching a ton ever since! glad to see you've become so successful. keep em coming. thank you
Yes he is doing such a good job. I have watched him from his start.

Thank you!
I know regrettably little about my own people, thanks for this video!
One common feature I see with most of these old world buildings is the massive triangular stonework propped up with pillars, usually with a clock or something in the middle. So I would associate Freemasonry with a lot of these (usually Government) buildings. Anyone else see that?
Almost the entire city centre of Belfast was built by Freemasonry - two of my great-Uncles who founded the first Masonic Lodge in Anne Street. I have to say that I have no truck with Freemasonry, although one has to say that most of the buildings were beautiful in their Greco-Roman architecture - many of them sadly and wickedly destroyed by terrorists during "The Troubles."
Check out how the railroad is being dug out.🤔
Norn Irish guy here, only discovered your channel yesterday! Thanks for this great video, it helped assuage my homesickness a little.
Check out Charles Reis & Co in Dublin re postcards. You'll see an ad for them in one of these photos. (around 11:50)
💚Thanks Jarid🐾🐾
great work! and i love the piano awsome.
Great video, very interesting with super photos. Well done, from a Belfast born guy
My home! Excellent work
BRAVO!!
Jarid, are you familiar with Poverty Point, Louisiana? There's an ancient earthworks site there apparently from 1500 BC. It's a UNESCO World Heritage site. I'd love for this community to have a look and hear comments/theories on what it may have been. If I'm not mistaken it may also be on the 33rd parallel.
Wow, this site looks incredible! Thanks for the info.
@@vijaysuryaaditya9860 Hey you're welcome! Pretty cool right? Obviously it could be exactly what they say it is but I always question the narrative so I wonder what else it could be. 🤔😄
@@Peppersfirst
It is a Delphi-like sound collection point, but it shouldn't be in Louisiana! 'Amphitheatres' I believe were auming sites, certain frequencies being beneficial to crop growth! In Cornwall, we have tunnels that did much the same thing. Some say The Pyramids produced a similar effect. Well, The Romans always turned to Egypts corn, in times of scarcity! One has to ask, what was wrong with Tuscany?!
@@vijaysuryaaditya9860 Right? I was so surprised the first time I heard about the site because, like you said, what's it doing in Louisiana?! My buddy said there are more mounds to the south of Poverty Point. I have to look into it.
@@Peppersfirst
Well it stuffs up their feeble narrative for a start! Good luck with it bro.
Enjoyed that thanks, sometimes we don't appreciate where we live. I work for a main contractor and have been involved in some of the recent major projects in the city. But really enjoy the history.
Nice .
Hey JB, thanks for the shoutout. I hope you received my mail with copyright free music contributions :)
TY for another jawdropping video!
Thanks for highlighting Belfast, I've lived and worked in Belfast for nearly 60 years, and know the place well. It's full of rich history, most if it generally unknown. The Cave Hill (McArts Fort) which stands out in some of the photos was known as Napoleon's Nose, and the outline appearance of a giant head inspired Jonathan Swift's Gulliver's travels. Only one note, I think there was a photo of the GPO in Dublin half way through. Again, many thanks for your hard work.
Look up learmount castle limavady Ni..my father was born there. My grandfather was coachman for lady Beresford...it had two stone wings on the sides. Demolished for some reason .. dad said it had electric light in 1900..it's been let go to collapse in side ..and now being revamped ...

thx mista Boosters...
Thumbs up!
I enjoyed the old photos of Belfast City and surrounding areas. Dunluce Castle is up on the North Coast Road just a few miles outside of Portrush a beautiful seaside town.👍🏻
1,000,000 red bricks formed and fired in one year (100,000,000 / 365 = 2,739.72 per day)! You have to dig and transport the clay, gather the other ingredients, such as chalk, shell, metal oxides etc. then mix, form and fire the ingredients into bricks, then sell and transport the bricks to the worksite, where they must be assembled using mortar which has to be made also. Don't forget the wood needed to fire the kilns! IAW the official narrative this was all done using basic tools, hand labor, transported over unimproved roads by horse and wagon etc. yeah right. Remember, all this was needed to build just one building!
I've been saying this . Battersea pumping station has 10 million bricks who dug the aggregate formed them fired them layed them with a fecking horse and shovel , you could only erect things with a pole to three quarters of the length of the pole.i know because I've done it .....it's all BS history
4:20, Odd, they are digging down to place railroad ties & tracks, when everyone else builds raised bed to place the ties & tracks on; first to get the tracks above the water level, second to ease in leveling the tracks.
9:30, is that a sleeping head of the Buddha on top, to the right of that hill?
11:19 mud flooded building if ever I seen one!
No, the silhouette of a reclining face, resembles a giant man gazing up into the sky. It was thought to inspire Jonathan Swift in his story Gulliver's Travels. JS lived near to Belfast and would see this silhouette journeying from Belfast to Kilroot.
100% mud flood

Old city maps at Beings of Belfast
Stat city ......I can't find tge old map
But every city in Ireland is a star city
A guy from Cork has a channel
He shows all the city's as star forts .....like

@@smac6880 the silhouette of the reclining face (9.30) on the hillside is on the edge of Cave Hill North Belfast, it’s known as Napoleon’s Nose, after Bonaparte. If you look closely at with the view that he’s heaven gazing you can see the reason why it’s so named. Rising up from the chest area you first reach his chin, then the lips before the flattened nose. As you continue up the face the eye socket is clearly visible followed by his high brow on which his ‘bicorne’ hat sits!
@@speedster2464 I know this, but it has been thought it also inspired GT because it looks like a reclining giant. Wouldn't it be a great tourist attraction if promoted as Gulliver. It is such a distinct profile from certain places.
This is fast becoming my favorite channel. Are you familiar with Rumble? I've been gravitating more toward that video platform more lately since RUclips censors so many content creators but you and a few other creators are here so I go back and forth. As youtube deletes more channels I assume Rumble will be where everyone ends up.
Thanks. I'd never heard of it myself.
It makes one wonder why they bother. What's in it for them, except for ever-dwindling audiences?!
@@vijaysuryaaditya9860 You're welcome! I believe all of the major platforms have been ordered to cooperate with whatever the agenda is. Beyond data collections. They've created a powerful propaganda machine. Ever research propaganda? So interesting. The founder of Netflix is related to "the godfather of propaganda". I forget if it's his grandfather or someone else. But it's an interesting rabbit hole to hop in. The Smith-Mundt Act in relation to using propaganda on U.S. citizens is worth looking into.
@@Peppersfirst
Interesting. I avoid TV purposefully, but it is All so very hard to avoid.
The World Corporation sure has its fingers in a lot of pies!
@@vijaysuryaaditya9860 So many pies! 😂
Thanks j rad
Good
Great stuff as always. I feel you talk faster now. Miss the old pace. I will still watch but can’t for as long. I enjoy the slower speak and think it’s something culturally we are losing from the old world.
Great pics and vid overall..I'm now a new subscriber..
The Potatoe Famine narrative is but a cover story for an event far far more sinister ..and it's involves the Queen Victoria ...or her Military stockpiling of All the food as they went town to town creating starvation and death for a few million souls..
73 Garrisons landed in Ireland..There's The "story" if you want to win a Pulitzer Prize.!!
Two more famous rivers that were built over, "culverted," are the River Fleet in Londen and the River Medlock in Manchester. Just found your channel today, just subscribed.
Hi from Belfast 💚
I was born in Belfast and still live here.
Regarding the Plantation - the planters received excellent incentives - free land. It was a strategy used by the English to destroy Irish dissent.
There must have been something really extraordinary in that basement for being rebuilt again and again.
P.S the potato famine was a genocide. Massive wheat production beforehand all exported. The workers had tiny patches of bad soil where only potato could grow. When the blight hit, the Brits still exported food from Ireland and set up slave houses, laundries, hard labor camps as their humanitarian efforts.
Research how many Soul- die rs and Garrisoned accross the Land of Queenie's Army were sent over to Ireland in 1845-50 ..to go out and capture in all the food they could and ship it out at 2 full ships a day full of grain and foodstocks. Blame it on a poor Potatoe who can't argue back..Genocide is what it was.!! The food stealing took more than a few months to do.
Jarid Boosters i am From Belfast at last some one has made a video of the starfort of belfast nice one
A lot of the building i see in this video are still hear today. I can still hear the old river water run under the city late at night wean the roads are quiet and no one is about.
I love rivers, the thought of a city slowly covering one up until most people don't even know its there is so sad and disrespectful. humanity is like a kid who got separated from its mom at the grocery store
The river lagan is huge, it runs from slieve croob mountain right down to belfast lough,theres alot of it you can see.
@@garyb1036 The covered river discussed is not the Lagan but the Farset which gave Belfast it's name. A bridge spanned the Farset at Bridge Street and the river was covered with what is now High Street. The Farset still empties into the Lagan near Albert Clock.
Did you know that there was no Northern Ireland until after 1921
Belfast is surrounded with
Mega stones
👍🏻👍🏻
Great information, regarding the famine, please look into this authors work.

4:18 mark, they are digging those tracks out of the ground
1:22, looks like Vienna, 👍😳 palas of Anna nahowski bought before she passes,but was it before she did. and what of the emperor having many old world living off grid buildings and painting by park with dome covered rear areas for when visiting
The image shown between 8:03 and 8:14 is not a Belfast scene but the burnt out remains of the Dublin's General Post Office (GPO) in O'Connell Street, following the 1916 Easter Rising. Mortars were fired from a British Warship which was tied up at the Customs House (some 500 Yds away) and almost half of O'Connell Street was destroyed in the process. The leaders of the uprising were tried by a military court and sentenced to death by firing squad, one of those executed was so badly wounded that he was unable to stand so he was was executed sitting in a chair, that man was called James Connolly.
so all these harbours are long gone , submerged from the climachanges and raising waters .. or is the water still at the same level ? . :-) :-)
St Patrick drove all the snakes out of Ireland. It is alleged that on the way out, he turned to them and said “ Are you all right in the back there lads?!”.
Only kidding, it was really Brian Boru.
Some fantastic pictures and information but the pronunciation of a lot of your words are odd. But still well done. I have to add very well researched.
19:05 That is the weirdest pronunciation of Lagan I have ever heard lol
Thanks for these lovely pictures I have most of them myself as I come from Belfast, the Scots came over at the Giants Causeway because in the Stone Age we were joined to Scotland through the stones but with time we broke away becoming an Island . The potato famine was caused by diseased potatoes brought back from the Americas , we usually grew wheat but because the British owners wanted to try growing potatoes they were given these diseased potatoes to plant our wet climate did the rest ! It was also cheaper to ship the people off to America as it was to keep them in the poor house. River Lagan would be pronounced Lagen ! Thanks again for the lovely positive video, I think I have an old picture of the Lagan near St Peters Hill that shows it running I will send it u 👍🥰❤️
Re the famine look into this author: Chris Fogarty (author of Ireland 1845-1850: The Perfect Holocaust, and Who Kept it “Perfect”)
@@Scotty432 Thats one i need to read. Thanks for the reminder :)
Also it was a genocide..yes there was a potato blight but please tell it how it was. Learn your history!
Are you sure you are from here?
Are you joking? You're definitely thinking of the legend of the giant Finn McCool re: the giant's causeway.
We inherited everything in this realm...
I would suspect historically it is highly Gaelic and Welsch etc? But I'm not sure

The video keeps showing photos of the Stormont Parliament Building, while talking about Belfast Castle. Also, you show photos of the more modern, 1870, Belfast Castle, while telling us about the more ancient castles.

Why are you showing Stormont Buildings and talking about Belfast castle ?
👍🏼
No not the Schwaab. Ya lets just cover that river. Love your videos. I believe Weaversville Pa. is one of the oldest Irish settlements in Pa. Early 1700's.
Justin Pawlak two vids ago I think showed a headline article or two from major newspapers clearly stating no one died on the titanic, everyone was rescued! Supposedly there were a few heads, who weren't down with the nwo and the plans to erect the private federal reserve, that were aboard
I’m a descendent of jhon decourcy I can indeed confirm he did invade and built the castle at Carrickfergus 👍
THE story starts in 1177 when the Norman soldier-adventurer, Sir John de Courcy, went north from Dublin, the headquarters of Norman power in Ireland, and arrived at Downpatrick on February 2.
De Courcy was a man of great physical strength and size. He was also brave and daring. He now attempted to conquer all of Ulster, which King Henry II had granted to him five years before. He gathered around him about 320 knights and archers, who, with their attendants, made up about one thousand men.
Downpatrick was the capital of the Gaelic Kingdom of Ulidia. But de Courcy’s men were half starved when they reached the town; they stole everything that they could lay their hands upon - they ate and drank, plundered and killed, until half of Downpatrick was in ruin.
Almost at once the Gaelic king, Mac Dunleavy, came with a large force to attack de Courcy. He went out to meet Mac Dunleavy, and chose a strategic place to make an attack. The Gaels rushed in with great bravery, but they were unable to break the ranks of the Normans and after a fierce fight they were repulsed with great loss.
But the Ulidians put up a most determined resistance. The valiant de Courcy attacked the Gaels as many as three times that year. De Courcy then suffered a number of reverses, so that it was an effort to hold his ground.
He was defeated near Newry with the loss of 450 men and was intercepted in one of his many raids by the Dalaradian king, Cumee O’Flynn. He escaped from the battlefield with only eleven companions and having lost their horses they fled on foot for two days and two nights, closely pursued, without food or sleep.
But in other battles de Courcy was victorious, so that as the year passed his position in Ulster was strengthened. Now he started to build Dundrum Castle, along with Carrickfergus at a later date. The failure of local government in Down, now prompted King Henry II to make de Courcy the justiciar - or viceroy - in Ireland. During this time Connaught was invaded, de Courcy burning and slaying after his usual fashion.
He was confronted by two kings from Munster and Thomond, who had united armies. Not venturing to make battle, he retreated northwards to save himself and his forces from destruction. He arrived in Ballysadare on the Sligo coast, with the enemy pursuing closely behind. He set fire to the buildings and fled south east.
As he was crossing the Curlew Hills de Courcy was overtaken by the Gaels, who fell upon his men and killed a greater number of them. It was with difficulty that he escaped to Leinster with what remained of his army.
De Courcy had enemies at court, chief among them being Hugh de Lacy, who poisoned King John’s mind against him. He was proclaimed a rebel and a traitor. De Lacy, now Lord Justice, was sent to arrest him.
After a number of unsuccessful attempts de Courcy was at length betrayed by some of his own servants who led him to his retreat at Downpatrick, where he was taken in 1204. His enemies came down upon him on Good Friday when he was barefooted and unarmed, doing penance in Down Cathedral. He snatched the nearest weapon, a great wooden cross, with which he dashed out the brains of many of his attackers before he was overpowered.
Between his arrival at Downpatrick in 1177 and his expulsion in 1204 de Courcy founded many religious establishments, built abbeys for the Benedictines and the Cistercians and the great fortress of Dundrum Castle, then known as Rath.
He had chosen a good site on a 200-foot high hill overlooking an inlet in Dundrum Bay in the plains of Lecale and the pass between the Mourne Mountains and the foothills of Slieve Croob.
It is not known when the main keep was built, but it was a remarkable achievement in military science and architecture by the knights who had come back from the Holy Land on crusade. The diameter of the keep is 46 feet, and it is 52 feet high.
But as a result of trouble in Downpatrick, de Courcy lost control of Dundrum Castle along with Carrickfergus Castle in Co Antrim. In the year after his expulsion de Courcy tried to recapture Dundrum Castle, now held by his father-in-law, the King of the Isle of Man. De Courcy’s attempts ended in failure and the castle became crown property. In 1218 it was visited by King John.
Dundrum Castle consisted of two storeys with wooden floors above the basement, and the original entrance on the ground floor. Chambers and passages were constructed along with a staircase rising to the walk wall.
For over two centuries from 1346 the history of the castle is barely documented. It appears that the Magennises seized Dundrum sometime in the 14th century and held it intermittently until it was surrendered to the Crown by Phelim Magennis in 1601. The Savages appear to have been the owners when the Earl of Kildare took it in 1517.
The castle was granted to Lord Cromwell in 1605, then sold in 1636 by his grandson, the first earl of Ardglass, to Sir Francis Blundell.
During the rising of 1641 the Magennises retrieved the castle, but it was recaptured by the Parliamentarians, who partly demolished it in 1652. By 1954 the castle and grounds were placed into state care.
Perhaps more than anywhere else in Ireland, Dundrum reflects the Anglo-Irish spirit - the work of the great de Courcy, the soldier-knight adventurer. Today Dundrum Castle is a ruin. De Courcy’s other achievement in Ulster, Carrickfergus Castle, is the best preserved Norman castle in Ireland.

Nearly wet myself at how French you pronounced Lagan. Haw He haw…🇫🇷

You keep on about how important belfasr waz at the time of the Norman's Carrickfergus was the main town and capital of Ireland before dublin and the pale
The picture you said was of the giants ring isn't the giants ring you showed a dolman
The potato famine was not what it appeared, there was plenty of food, for most of the harvested crops were sent to Britain and onto the Americas at the time.
The people of Ireland were just left to eat the potatoes and this happened not just once but a number of times, weakening the people further and further.
Then the Protestants set up a Soup Kitchens, where a family could be fed with bowls of soup, but only if they accepted the Protestant or Church of England faith and forsook their Catholic religious beliefs.
The Irish population never recovered, at the time was supposedly nearly 10million, now just nearer 5million and this had followed on from the Great Frost of Ireland which had occurred one hundred years before in the 1740s, again resulting in a famine.
Most have put this down to some form of arctic winter from volcanic eruptions, but the Irish population never really recovered and then when the blight fell in the 1840-1850s this forced many to flee the country, those who survived were often forced off their tenant farms, which was just an acre or two, just enough to produce crops for the land landlords with a few meagre potatoes for themselves, which couldn't be eaten, thus forcing many into indentured servitude, again many were shipped overseas as slaves, many were placed in workhouses and many starved to death.
It was an horrific time in Ireland's history and in Northern Ireland the indigenous people were displaced in favour of English settlers, brought in to farm the land.
This is what caused the troubles which exploded in the early 1900s.
On the White Star Line, most people don't realise there were 3 ships all identical, the Titanic, the Olympic and the Britannic and it is said by some that it was not the Titanic that went down that fateful day but instead the the Olympic, which had been damaged not long before and was in dock for repairs, for she listed to one side, which some were said to notice on the Titanic's maiden voyage.
Insurance scams are nothing new and especially if a company is about to lose a whole lot of money from one their ships not getting the insurance payout that they were expecting.
A fantastic comment. This Great Frost is really puzzling. I have heard Michelle Gibson mention it.
There did not seem to be much humanity towards others back then.
Yep, The Olympic, & the steel they used was too high in sulphur making it brittle.
Excellente. Lusitania was the fourth ship.
Wrong. are you Welsh?
Kate Emma. You're talking a load of shite. Where are you from

If she's wrong, then why not correct her?
Found it interesting, but your pronunciation of the river Lagan was different.
There’s no way Belfast is insignificant if that many conquers wanted it and kept “rebuilding” Belfast castle. And to have the secret River silently flowing infers the heart of the city is no conscience.
An interesting collection of photographs but badly linked together in the commentary. A lesson on pronounciation would have been necessary to make the history of this great city come alive. What you see is often not what is being talked about. Still the effort is appreciated by someone born in the city over 8 decades ago. Thank you.
Great video about my home town. First I’ve heard about a hidden river, must do some research on that. Just one point…. Your pronunciation of the Lagan is way off.
Well why would you need to rebuild a castle while being ruled by another nation?
"Plantation" has lkittle to do with slavery, or the cotton, indigo, & tobacco plantations of the American South. The government of King James (I of England, VI of Scotland) simply planted colonists from the lowlands of Scotland & Northumberland in England to Ulster in Ireland. I have ancestors from Ireland with Scottish names, such as McKissick, McKay, & McNicholl, but probably not part of the Plantation. These names are Highland Scottish, & have been in Ireland since the 14th century or earlier, being amongst the Galloglass mercenaries who supported Edward Bruce's claim to the throne of Ireland.
Not a bad wee documentary. But very inaccurate I'm afraid in relation to the ancient history aspect. Lovely nonetheless. Goid effort.
Also it's Arthur Chichester as in 'CH'ick or CHeese. So pronounced CH_eh_CH ester.😊.
At 3.13 one can see an ape lower left corner in front of a shop. He may be looking at the little white dog. What?!
It's a man sat on a window ledge
Who were the snakes that were driven out?
The Snake/Orme, is an ancient symbol of The Goddess. In this part of The World they represented Freya of Breggedd (Brigit). Normally they would be found carved on grave markers, as they are to this very day in Scandinavia. However iconoclasts removed them at a time when the new religion, Christianity, was being established. The story of Adam and Eve may have had much to do with this.
@@vijaysuryaaditya9860 I can feel that flow, interesting you mention Adam and Eve... it’s a big interest of mine , since my namesake
@@evaaboytes7271
It is a really nice name too! It comes from Hawah, meaning 'Life', but I'm sure you already knew that.
The story of Adam and Eve, is not original to The Bible. It was taken from the far earlier Babylonian 'Enuma Elish'. Only one change; the omission of Lilith, Adams first wife! It explains many, many things!
'The Story' is also told in the night sky. The constellation Virgo represents Eve, the constellation Bootes is Adam, and just beneath them, Serpens, the snake leaving The Garden in disgrace! 'Eve' can be seen stretching out an arm to reach the forbidden fruit. The name of the relevant star is in Latin, but translated, 'the fruit picker'!
@@vijaysuryaaditya9860 wow, is there a constellation for Lilith?
@@evaaboytes7271
Lilith is 'The Snake'!
The Snake, Tree, Egg, Circle, Lion, Shell/Spiral are all Goddess symbols. The Goddess is only referenced in The Bible by symbols.
It's simply deCourcy, not dayCourcy, & never just Courcy.
It's Chichester, not Chyechester. It's just a simple short "i", not a long "i".
i like that youre one of the few old world researchers i watch who realize the importance of the bible/god in all this, despite the changes made to texts and codification etc, apocrypha. it almost seems intentional when others ignore what is very obviously a book of law that all our legal systems are based on, whether we are aware of it or not. i didnt believe in the bible or scripture growing up and came to it through pure reasoning, trying to avoid it like the plague at first.
Same here. Started of Catholic as a kid, felt like something was off so by 18 years old I dove into the rabbit holes or ancient history and tried finding the origins of everything. Delved into Esoteric texts, Buddhism, Hinduism, Shamanism, Kriya, New Age, and skimmed through a few others before suddenly waking up heavily drawn to Christianity. It felt like coming home.
@@Peppersfirst and @Chance Butler: You may enjoy Stephen Pidgeon's study on the house of Esau he just did last week. They are the ones that got the talmud shoved through in places....and I am suspecting having alot to do with those flipping two pillar pyramid arrangements everywhere. My path was like yours...nothing stuck til I found Yeshua's blood, thank Yah.
