Finally getting to see this older video. Well done. I live a short distance from here. Lovely to see my backgarden presented so well. For anyone coming Dowth is open to public, it's in a simple field. Not much to see but useful as it's state is similar to pre restoration of the other sites. Glad you mentioned that the Boyne was the ancient main road. Many do not realise that ancient Ireland was covered in old growth forest and movement was very difficult.
Great show , I was expecting some new stuff from Éire but this was a big deal considering it was a high level culture way before there was an Abraham. Awesome , I'm going to have to visit now .Thanks for bringing it.
I saw that mace head in the National Museum in Dublin. The finishing is so perfect and the workmanship so well executed that it stands out from all the other contemporary artifacts. I wonder if it points towards professional artisans specifically creating these objects and maybe even sourced from distant communities?
Oh that must've been incredible, seeing that mace head with your own eyes. Oh my heart just started to beat faster reading your comment haha! It's one of the most incredible finds ever made in Neolithic western europe! They were incredibly skilled and I wish we knew more about them!
There is a lot of evidence of extensive trade across Europe at that time. For example, Amber has been found in Ireland which must have come from the Baltic area.
Michael Tsarion has some pretty wild stories about ancient Irish history. Whether any of it is true or not doesn’t make it any less interesting to listen to 😅
It's refreshing and appreciated that you took the time to learn and properly pronounce the place names, that speaks to an attention to detail that is missing in allot of youtube videos.
Wonderful video, Kayleigh. You're correct about discoveries that are overlooked by modern science and the reason is because the truth about such discoveries fly in the face of what's considered mainstream, accepted belief. The mounds have been studied, but not completely, because they are spiritual in nature and serve a purpose that modern science doesn't want to acknowledge. Perhaps you know this already: the mounds were built by the Tuatha De Danann, long ago. Stonehenge and many other rock formations throughout the United Kingdom and in other countries were built by them, also. All of the artifacts left behind by the Tuatha De Danann are placements and workings that enhance and protect the spiritual grid that encircles Earth. They're energy centers and they serve other purposes, as well. The origin of the Tuatha De Danann is a secret that modern science would denounce if known but is a wonderful testament to universal compassion. Thanks so much for a knowledgeable presentation.
Thank you so much! I've heard a lot about the Tuatha de Danann, but I definitely need to look more into it! I know Anthony Murphy speaks a lot about the Irish myths and legends. Sláinte! 🤗
@@HistoryWithKayleigh The Tuatha De Danann passed their bloodline into the ancient Celts and Druids and this bloodline exists today within certain people in our human population. Where the Tuatha De Danann came from, Kayleigh, is a place that the vast majority of humanity would not believe, if told. Fortunately, this knowledge will soon be shared along with many other secrets. Be ready because amazing things are coming for all of us. And don't be afraid.
I've never been afraid haha, and the Tuatha de Danann has always been fascinating to me, just when I grew up it was impossible to find good information on it besides some short snippets. Nowadays there's much more information available, mostly because of the internet 🤭
@@HistoryWithKayleigh I know what you mean about information on the Tuatha Da Dannann being scarce. I find references to them in novels, and that's about it.✌😺
I spent time in the Cook Islands. They are so remote that it showed me how much light pollution we have and its no wonder how much our ancestors were so focused on the heavens. There one felt you could reach up and touch the stars. The cycle of night and day as they moved through the seasons would be a critical factor for farming even at a basic level, failure to prepare is prepared to fail. Then there is the worship factor even today all gods are all powerful, in the Cook islands they are extremely devout, weather can often decide life and death. Today we see the world with different eyes and that makes it hard to put ourselves in the same place as the people who built Knowth. I suspect there is a lot more to understand about our ancestors but it may just take one eureka moment.
A quick glance at a map shows that a sea route from the Iberia/Spain landmass, northwards to Cornwall and Hibernia/Ireland, would have been a most likely option for southern migrants.
@@HistoryWithKayleigh the overall design, art, said purpose, size of materials, different sizes of mounds, old age. Has lidar been done or gpr? Is there more to find?
🙏 An Excellent presentation. I will have to make the trip there post covid - from Galway. This lady is obviously very well informed on the features of the Boyne Valley and is excellent at explaining them.👍
Wow! This was my second viewing of Knowth, and I picked up more info once again. The mace heads are very interesting, especially the one from the eastern passage. The artwork is stunning! To carve those spirals so symmetrical shows great talent and perseverance. The ancestors were amazing people. Great video, Kayleigh! Even better the 2nd time around.🙃🙂
The mace heads were truly beyond words. And the Megalithic artwork at the entire site is just incredible. In the future I will make a video solely about the artwork 🤗
@@HistoryWithKayleigh that will be a great video, I'm sure. All of the carvings are intriguing, to say the least. I find myself trying to ferret out meanings for them but, haven't had much luck. A bit hard to get this modern mind into thought patterns that might, possibly, be similar to theirs. 🤔 It's fun trying, though. 😀

I noticed that the mace head contained spirals forming two eyes and a beak. I call this the Owl cult and have seen similar representations from other places. I believe there are significant numbers of palm sized flat stone tablets scattered around at these sites covered with secretive figures and symbols. Much of it in miniature and on unremarkable metamorphic bedrock. So long as no one is interested enough in learning about the priest/nobility class that made this stuff there will be no accepted science establishing a technique that separates intentional representations from a Rorsarch, borrowing structures stored in the viewer's iconic memory. In my view the elite of this culture is far more sophisticated than those studying them.
I'm unfortunately not studying officially. I just love ancient stone structures as they have fascinated me since I was young. But I'm unable to work, which means unable to study without being rich and able to pay for it haha 🤗
Independent researchers like yourself have deepened my knowledge of and appreciation for our ancestors in ways that continue to surprise and delight me. I never heard of this place until today and I thank you for the overview.
Thanks, I didn't know much about this site. I wonder about the chronological sequence of construction. If the "satellite" mounds are earlier, how did they know to leave a big circle in the middle for the later, vast mound. Was it all planned? I'll try reading more.
This is in Monaghan. I have been trying to make the argument with National monuments that this is a man made structure but they dismissed it as a natural feature without coming to look at it. This looks small in the video but it is huge. It's situated on a high point in Monaghan and between two rivers. I saw what seem to me laid stones but it's hard to see as there is a lot of Heather. If you look on the hill behind the mound you can see the remains of a lot of loose stone possibly from another structure? I found small amounts of quartz stone on the ground beside it. I still dissagree with national monuments. There also is possible entrances that look like they have collapsed (this may be just the shape the stone took naturally) but to me it looks like an entrance where the top has caved in. This possible entrance is quite high from the ground which would be unusual for a passage tomb. I'm doing research on this as I truly believe if it is not a passage tomb it's definitely man made. th-cam.com/video/klseJIrnH6A/w-d-xo.html
Nicely done - lots of interesting history/facts. We've posted some similar videos - especially on the Carnac region in Brittany, France. (Our channel is "81stainless" and the playlist under "ANCIENT RUINS" has two videos on the megalithic stones of Carnac and the region.) Of particular interest is research by Howard Crowhurst on the Carnac stones as they relate to astro-geometry. He states that the locations of these ancient sites (e.g. Bro na Boinne, Brodgar, etc.) were specifically selected due to their latitude and link to exact North/South cardinal points so they could be used to accurately track and predict the movement of the sun, moon, and other heavenly bodies. I believe there is so much more to be learned.
Cairn, Carnac & Carnán etc are all words found in Ireland as names for stone monuments. It's interesting that these words are in Brittany also - we're all connected. Sláinte!
I’m so fascinated by megalithic structures. Are you going to do something on “Adam’s calendar?” I’m also interested in the astronomical, geographic and mathematical integrity in all these structures. 👍🏼❤️👍🏼 excellent video. Have you looked into Carl P. Munck and his geometry of megalithic sites? There’s a TH-cam video called “the code” by him and it will really make you appreciate the technology, math and precision they put into these thing. 🤠
These remind me of the burial mounds in Sudan, where you have all the little circles around the the larger circles. On your Sudan video I sent you a link that connects them with the Sardinia Holy Wells. Check it out if you get a second.

Fair enough that we've guessed at what the chambers were used for so here's another one. They could have been used by certain individuals as ceremonial spaces, much like Yogi's in India have created energising spaces. Without all of our modern distractions, people long ago would most certainly have been tuned into natural energies and how to use them and enhance them. It's such a shame that the Boyne valley has been over manicured and manipulated to attract tourist money.. they've even created a false chamber inside one of the mounds, citing 'safety' as the reason for doing so..
Amazing Kayleigh. Your vids are really superb. Two quick questions if you have time. Are many of these sites looted? It's hard to determine. Do you have a link for a one time donation? I don't like monthly plans. As always, thank you.
Almost all these sites have been looted, either in ancient times or late 1800's early 1900's.. unfortunately that makes it more difficult for archaeologists to date the found artefacts or understand their meaning because it's almost all incomplete.. I have a ko-fi account, ko-fi.com/P5P42ZHI2 you could buy me a "coffee" haha, but it's seen as a one time donation option where you are in charge of the amount and everything 🤗
The ancestors built on such a massive scale. The planning of the various sites for whatever purpose, was a huge undertaking. The mace head puts me in mind of sacrifice. The red near the eye, and coming feom the mouth says, to me anyways, 'strike here, expect this'. I had trauma to my face and head, (hit by a car, crossing the street)trust me, the red flows from the ears, nose and mouth. Didn't mean to get graphic, sorry. Astro archeology is still pratty new, and new ideas and archeologists...well, pretty hidebound group, overall, sadly. Some eager young astroarcheologist will tackle this incredible site. The curbstones.....in a circle. Well, to my pagan mind comes the thought of circles of protection, barriers, or containment (of magic, spirits, entities, etc.) with the symbols invoking the desired effect. If they are tracking astronomical events, wouldn't that add to the effect? I know, I'm a strange one.LOL As always, nicely done! Hugs n scritches to the furbabies. The globe...nice addition! Scholarly.✌😺
Really good video I live 15 minutes from the Boyne Valley it Madness to think that Egypt wouldn't even begin for another 1000+ years more like 2000 come on we are closer to Roman Empire than Roman Empire was to them🤯🤯
