It may have been a fort. But then the question would be : Who would literally paint themselves into a corner, with their back to the sea cliff? I wonder if instead it was a prison,. A prison with one side to the sea and a fortified wall in a semi-circular form. I also feel it might have been a sacrificial place with sentencing occurring with the prisoner(s) being pushed off those cliffs, after sentencing, or after the ceremony. Horrible but probably likely.

You are listing 4 possible purposes for this place. None of the 4 is military (fortification). I can’t believe my eyes

Excelente trabajo, amamos Japón.

Great movie

My Opinion - Andrew - If you want us to answer the phone / e-mail after hours - then you stump up with more money - this is a productivity improvement!

Looks to me like it was built by a people who wanted to see who was coming and wanted to be prepared. They were druids and worshipped the sun and this uninterrupted horizon would be a great place to track its movements

If it was a defensive structure then what was it defending?

It’s a fort . It’s literally my family history .It was built by the family /war machine - named Downey the Irish surname that means in English “belonging to a fort”. That name was changed to Downey after a massive loss in war. Irish: shortened Anglicized form of Gaelic Ó Dúnadhaigh ‘descendant of Dúnadhach’ a personal name meaning ‘fortress-holder’ . It’s in my family tree .apparently its from the 1200's BC . The Dunadhach fort under several coat of arms . Over several century’s .

Great video

That plate is double phinox Nikko Japan 1950s

Great job ,nicely done

I have some blue Willow plates that could be maybe over 70 years old could you please help me I’d like to try to find the pattern for those

The problem with this site is there is no reason for its location that we know of, it could just so happen sometime way back maybe thousands of years ago there was a collapse of land into the sea and that idea will stir up more questions as how far out into the sea did this land go, what caused the collapse, or did the sea rise, did this happen when Doggerland between England and Norway disappeared under the sea, has this anything to do with the old Irish story of Tir Na Nog

There is archaeological evidence that Dun Aengusa was at least begun circa 1100 BC. The Fir Bolg pre-dated the Danaans, who built stone dolmens, so clearly they arrived many centuries before the people you're talking about here, and their name is well explained in the Lebor Gabala from their origin in Greece. Laigin (meaning 'learned') were people from what is now called Leinster, and were not Britons. If they had anything to do with this story, they were Danaans fleeing the Milesians, who were Gaels invading from Galicia. (The earliest evidence of a Gaelic presence is circa 1100 BC.) It is probable that Danaans were entering the West Country (later Connaught) to avoid the Milesians, that the Fir Bolg of the West Country resisted the Danaans' arrival (in a late rendition of the archetypal Moytura Cong battle) and lost to them, and that Dun Aengusa was the castle they built against the Danaans. There are a few other possibilities. One is that both Dun Aengusa and Dun Conor were built because at the end of the 2nd millennium BC the weather was bad, so those were times of local conflict. Another is that at some point Fir Bolg and Danaans united to hold the Aran Islands forts against the Milesians, but they are always associated with the Fir Bolg.

My friend bought some blue willow china from QVC -- the American TV home shopping channel -- and has used it for about 20 or so years for everyday use. Thanks for giving me a better a better insight into the story of the pattern.

I’ve recently inherited a slew of dishes I was told are “Blue Willow”, I’m happy to learn more about this and sadly the pattern on the dishes I have are Courier & Ives which I find far less interesting than your video.

Humanisme poétique typique dans le cinéma japonais « classical »…👍⛩🎯👌

Heyy man I know it’s been a few years lol but please make some more Japanese tattoo videos

Those tatts back then looked better than most now.

such a pleasant voice

I wish they had put down the music score in the information area, it's beautiful! Does anyone know what it is??

It looks like this was a major city that has been bombed to smithereens, to hide it from us! It looks like a cover up! History is just bunch of bullshit stories.

Start researching melted buildings........... They are all over the realm

Where is the footage of the fudo myoo backpiece in the bath house from? Thanks in advance

Fight Arena. Like a Coliseum.

I live in North Yorkshire, UK. I have discovered thousands of shards of blue willow plates, bowls etc.. In my back garden. I believe they are not the genuine ones made in China, but in fact the European replicas. Still fascinating to find them and look at the designs. 😊

I love the video. Thanks for that, also that shirt is 🔥🔥🔥

A remarkable film!

It seems that a landslide happened there in a day and night

I wonder if the English title was correctly translated. 瞳 is generally translated as "pupil" in English, so it would be "24 pupils". This would also play well into the English double meaning of "pupil" meaning "eye" and "student". Did the director choose this kanji on purpose? Wow, deep cuts.

Thank you for doing all this research. I picked up this record because it struck me as very unique that a Korean lounge singer made it to Miami Beach in the 1960s, singing in English, Spanish, and Hebrew. I imagine these records must have been sold after performances because so many of them are signed by the artist to a fan.

「おなご先生」も本当の意味、果たして日本以外に正しく伝わるものだろうか？

It's a fort. There are loads on Inishmore. Cheveux de Fris sharp rocks to prevent horse charges. There are tunnels, narrow openings and wells for prolonged sieges.

We forget that the climate 3000 years ago was different to what we know today. The Burren was heavily forested back then and it’s likely the landscape on Inis Mor was not as we know it today, so it’s hard with our current mindset to imagine what the place must have been like back then.

great channel

This video is full of shit

Beatiful

You guys were supposed to do a documentary on Fishmans? What happened to that

The questions are:when was it built,who built it,did someone live there?/does someone still live there,what was it used for/what is it used for,where is it,what is the building,how was it built/material/how many ppl did it take to build it,who owns it,who designed it?? Pls hellppp

So basically I have to do a project on dún aengus and dun aongusa keeps on coming up are the both the same place??????

Very nice!

Thanks for this! What music is playing in the background?

Tattoos come from japan

I have 40 tattoos I love Japanese ink I have 6 Japanese tattoos

I’ve seen some theories that it was a tsunami shelter(not kidding) 1. They don’t really know how old it is so 10,000 plus years ago the Atlantic was 400 ft lower at the end of the ice age but the island itself was hundreds of feet lower since it hadn’t rebounded from the mile thick ice sheet covering most of Ireland 2. It was a full circle and the inclined bracing on the outside might have improved access for the hundreds of people running from a 30+ foot wave 3. Nowhere in the original construction did they use any of the boulders lying around tossed up by the sea during storms since they weren’t there yet 4. There’s also the “chevaux de frise “ surrounding the fort which would help deflect any waves with debris Here’s a link if anyone is interested in it. It’s a lot of reading but somewhere in there it mentions Galway Bay’s original name in Gaelic was for a lake of fresh water since with sea levels 400 feet lower it would have been more like Lough Corrib Anyway good luck if this interests you aran-islands-tsunami-shelters.com/

Just found your video as I was researching a lesson for my students about the legacy of ancient Chinese porcelain artists and I wanted to talk to them about the myth of Blue Willow. The myth of course being that it is not actually a Chinese folk tale. It's been a long time since you did this, but I found it useful.

My mama had a set of blue willow dishes in the 60's ,I bought a set 28 yrs ago they are my favorite ,thanks for this history lesson

I'm ole tednek boy love me some )blue dishes(
