Excellent informative video. Thanks.

The Spanish didnt use the flask, they used a "bandolera" with the 12 "apóstoles"

Is that an Armour Class Mary Rose basket hilt I see there?

And our 21st century King comes along and rips up the original rough stone surrounding the well, part of the traditional penance of doing the pattern on your bare feet or knees!, and puts down lovely shiny gravel. How could one be so stupid? Ruined it.

The first musket is a damn beauty, aesthetical work of art. The second one also is very pretty.

Lovely man❤

partout ou étaient des paysans, ils ramassaient les pierres pour pouvoir labourer ou créer des pâtures ; ils avaient le temps, nous pas.

haha what a funny coincidence, wanted to watch something about irish stone walls and its in one of my favorite places in the world, i spent many years at the knockanstockan music festival growing up just down from here and you referance inis oirr too at the end! which was my second favoirite place me and friends used to go camping for a few summers :)

excellent presentation, especially disputing the term "12 apostles" for the nickname of the chargers on the bandolier. It was very much a later Victorian indulgence. 👍

Hi Christie, fascinating presentation and are enjoying oratory of the rich history of the magnificent Abbey. Would you know if any MacHugos are interred inside the Abbey or graveyard. Looking for Gregory,, Ulick, William and Father Anthony (Priest) said to be buried there 17th & 18th centenaries. as we are researching this line connected to our people from Kiltormer. Any information, greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. 😊

My Dad Constable Michael Kelly, who was one of the mutineers. I Wish to correct a statement you have made regarding Mee being the leader of the grou. my Dad told me he was elected the spokesman being the most senior member. My Dad was used as a primary source for Father Gauguin book. also My Dada was sent with fellow mutineer John MacNamara to America to gain support. My Dad was also wanted at this time for the killing of Smythe, but he was the one who pointed him out for the Cork Brigade of the IRA

Didn’t understand a word from this geezer can’t lie

Thank you for doing this. I've been doing a lot of data entry of records for the Clonbur/Cornamona/Maum/Leenane area into a large family tree, from b\m\d and also the Irish Graveyards website. This should allow me to do even more.

Very interesting documentary, and a superb specimen of octahedral fluorite!

great video thanks ❤

Appreciated

I'm, curious if you could point out the types of weapons used in the Battle of Beresteczko Poland [1651] What were the type of firearms -- or was it swords and lances. Thank you.

Brother Namaste 🙏 from India Bharat. You really put in great effort into the video. Congrats. You are sincere and honest. God bless you. Just one point, is "bore" number of bullets out of one pound of lead or half a pound of lead? Sorry, if I am wrong. Great effort Brother. 🙏🙏🙏

So if they are carrying 12 shots in their bandolier, when all 12 shots are done, do they go back to the pub for the day?

Bohemia has more than 600 years of gun rights of commoners to own and carry guns. Longer then any country on the globe. Even today far more than UK, Australia or Canada. It's how they could fend off Crusaders in the west and Ottoman Empire on the east, both of which use "cold arms". en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gun_law_in_the_Czech_Republic

This trade isn't forgotten, There is an apprenticeship offered in it for the last 40 yrs and its called stonemasonry and stone cutting.

In America, you had a possible's bag. This contained a powder measure, a ball starter, a percussion cap holder, patches & lead balls of different diameters.... Each patch was 10/ 1,000's of an inch or 1 caliber= one .490 round ball & 1 greased patch for .50 caliber or 1/2 inch in diameter=.050 or 50/100's of 1 inch.😊

Hello Sir, Thank you for the explanation of the restoration techniques of this beautiful bridge. Love the point work on the voussoir stones. ....Doc

Usually bandoleer or powder horn was depending on what musket you used. A caliver or arquebus would more likely use the horn and portetache and since they were lighter, more suitable for more mobile troops, nations that relied more light troops would also be more commonly seen with this setup. The bandoleer is typical for the heavy musket since the charges were also much bigger (i guess the spout would be way too large) and the heavy musket needs a different style of fighting. But of course you could load a caliver with a bandoleer.

Where can I hear you talk about the other stuff you mentioned?

2:28 "Tree" fabricators, those are some skilled craftsmen! :D

Sometimes soldiers would grind their own powder down finer, it made it burn a hell of a lot faster and produced a bigger blast.

What was the chivalrous cavalry cavliers calivers caliber?

Lovely. Now you need to visit the other John Stevens the best calligrapher in the world and see his studio if you can….

Where.s O.donnell buried?

Lovely to hear some detail about this shrine. Thank you.

So one shot would pretty much mean ur dead ?? Even if you get hit in the leg ? It seems likely to leave a gaping hole ??

It doesn’t surprise me that Gerry Burke is touring Athenry, he is very passionate about history.

A very interesting wall!

Great Irish Freedom Fighters = = Thanks.

Kevin Fife in New Hampshire would like for you to reach out to him.

Ok .We,ll go with that then.

Enjoyed that Well done Anything on the East Connemara Brigade

That the first recorded instance of a firearm in Ireland is one clan guy shooting another clan guy is the most Irish thing I have heard outside of potatoes.

I love this waller! 😊 I met him on Festival Hands across Europe!

0:40 Ha ha haaa such a BUUL aS

Absolutely love the Eddie Lenihan shirt!

Eddie, thoroughly love your wall, your stories, and that visitors chair, which I promise you, if I’m ever in your neck of the rocks….I’ll drop by for a sit! I particularly loved the expression of the rounded stone immersed in the rectangular and square. You’ve opened my mind up to the artistic breadth of wall building. Profound thanks for sharing your joy.

This is exactly what I was looking for. Just got back from a trip to the west coast and was loving the walls. I used to be a stone mason, was basically raised in the craft. I'd still like to know why some of the walls near the burren are laid up with the stone vertical. To my limited mind there is no structural reason for doing this. The walls look amazing, but why this technique?

“Tree” ingredients lol

Awesome work, great depth of knowledge :)

Thank you for the information!

Did this man just call wallnut wallnuss?
