There's an even older record of whiskey in Ireland than 1405. Well that is if you include references to aqua vitae, a recipe for which is found in the red book of Ossary, dated to 1324.

The Scottish ARE Irish - 'Scotti', Roman, for 'pirates', from the island of Ireland. More or less.

You look prehistoric

Paddy invented the hoodie.

I have a photograph of my great grandmother circa 1903 in East Boston just off the ship taken by her aunt who came to get her. My great grandmother was wearing one of these in that photograph. I also have her great kilt as she gave it to my Mother when my Mother was 12. When my grandmother took her Dad back to Ireland for a visit to his home in Galway he took her to the house he grew up in and found his cousins living there and they had a photograph of his mother on the wall in one as well and I have a copy of that photograph. Essentially my grandmother took a photograph of the photograph. I have that as well. She took her photo around 1952 and the original was taken somewhere around 1921 when she came back from her late husband's funeral after being murdered by the British for singing a song. Photographs were an expensive thing in those days and most country folk didn't have money for them so I'm not sure how that photo came about.

The thing is the Irish Americans believe the British was the ultimate evil of there ancestors but in reality the Irish Raided and captured and enslaved Welsh Scottish and English and other European costal towns

Volume low fyi.

Didn't know that, looks way better than a normal cloak. Also a heads up you can't read the captions because the channel name and title are in the way

I never realised they were part of Irish culture too! I only ever associated kilts with Scottish culture and it’s interesting to learn the history is somewhat intertwined. Thanks for creating this cool video!

Ally the Piper!

Love Ireland, love the clothes, love the visuals!

You`re a hit on the 2028 McAuliffe Gathering now mate

Cheers mate. Let`s raid

Any Chance you can cover the O'Hanlons?

It happens in Australia too

Ireland was never a unified state except under the British.

The last King of Ireland was Edward the Bruce.

Iam Kenna decent off lord turlock

@Irish Medieval History:I want to thank the "TheGhostHero" got helping me out online as well.

The only way to unite all of Ireland is to recognize that Ireland is a biblical megalithic monument. Look at the 1962 multicoloured topographic map of Ireland, there's a King 👑 holding the Holy Grail

And don`t forget the cattle raids mate

And let’s not forget that some of those Irish clans were “English”. 🤷🏻‍♂️

@Kizzmypixel2023 my granda was Irish McKenna, from Co.Monaghan, didn’t know they were part of the O’Brien’s. Heard they helped Tyrone with fighting? Just did my dna 95% Irish, rest from GB, Scandinavia and Finland. Vikings prob.

Kilts are called burkas now

Prefer whiskey myself!!

could ve kipped the adds tho

Question for ya mate - curious on your thoughts…. I am of Cornish lineage and one of our surnames is Curnow. Obviously close to Kernow , Cornish for Cornwall. One of the theories for origin is they were Irish raiders ( keen foot soldiers ) who settled and took the name Kernow , which eventually anglicized to Curnow - thoughts ?

Is there one for the surname Christian?

800 years of Irish history wiped out by an unvetted criminal. Disgusting.

"We Irish, though dwelling at the far ends of the earth, are all disciples of St. Peter and St. Paul. Neither heretic nor Jew nor schismatic is amongst us, but the Catholic Faith just as it was delivered to us by yourselves....we are bound to St. Peter's chair." St. Columbanus, Fifth letter to Pope St. Gregory

The English/British wiped out a lot of Irish history because it didn't suit their narrative

Mcdonagh number 1

As third generation Irish American I've lived the cultural, political, religious influences that have been passed down through my great grandfather and grandmother from Roscommon, grandfather and father. Not a romantic fantasy. The pride and prejudices have shaped me.

Today moore street is no longer a place of typical Irish identity

I love these. Is there one for McNamara?

Where are you from? If you are Irish, your accent isn't very thick. Not a criticism, just an observation. If you're American, there's no reason you can't talk about Irish medieval history. Just look at how many Egyptologists aren't from Egypt. Its good that you're out there spreading the info and stories

How did O'Neill and O'Neal happen just trying to learn miss about my families history.

I wonder what Ireland would have been like if Edward Bruce’s campaign had succeeded…🤔

So basically “it’s complicated”?

I'm Irish myself, that stuff is so ignorant. It seems like some superiority complex

As a McGrath I always felt a strong connection with Clare but living born and bred in Waterford I never realised the McGrath clan came from Co. Clare. So I can understand how Yanks feel about Ireland and the strong connection they feel to an area. Clare people would say I'm mad but it's true

Damn I was thinking I could pass as Irish being a ginger with cousins in Mayo but nope I’m just some stupid fat American 😂

how about the point being American first, with all respect for anyone's origins? The thought of it never crossed your mind?

Your in the minority here. Most people think it's weird that Americans that havnt stepped foot in Ireland, the last Irish ancestors having died over 100 years ago claiming to be Irish, it is absurd
