I'm completely in agreement with Kayleigh about the terrible cost of vandalism to the ancient art and sites. I wonder if, to your knowledge, there has been(or could be in the future) laser scanning of the art and the sites to at the very least give us some reproduceable record of things as they are now?

Kayleigh... and Anthony Murphy and Filmmaker Grant Wakefield... Thanks to all of you for this special video presentation and documentary. So happens that my Mother, Dorothy, is of Scotch-Irish decent and will be celebrating her 100th Birthday on September 5, 2024. History and Heritage is so important and fascinating. It so happens that Mom's Dad,, Albert Patterson, took the first commercial dog sled across Nome, Alaska on April 3, 1906... carrying dishes and kitchen ware over the ice. While most every family has a story of their history and heritage... it is most disappointing and disgusting that there are those who simply do not understand the importance and preservation of such. It is incomprehensible that throughout generations that such disrespect and vandalism still exists. 🙏
Awesome. I will definitely be watching this. There's something about (ancient) Ireland that I can't shake off... Feels like I've lived a few lives there. A strangely magical (or dare I say mystical?) island with such rich history that's hardly ever heard of. Looking forward to this. 🙂
I remember visiting Newgrange on a school trip, there was a four foot fence and gate locking us out and our teachers wouldn't allow us to climb over, we had to wait for someone to arrive with the key to the gate, but we all got to enter the passage in small groups, we were given a short lesson right at the back where there's a small chamber. This was around 1976/7 and it's no longer permitted to enter the tomb or I think even touch the carved slabs outside, whereas, we were allowed to do almost anything we wanted except climb the cairn, it's only years later that you realise how lucky you were.
I had to share this with mom immediately. Your content is always great and she's a big fan of the history of the UK and Europe. Thanks for making interesting videos!
Thank you Kayleigh for the video. I have been interested in Irish history my whole life as we knew both sides of our family immigrated from Ireland to the Americas before the American Revolution. Ten years ago I was able to track down our ancestors locations of origin in Ireland. Both ancestors immigrated around 1700 with our paternal ancestors coming from Cork and our maternal ancestors from Carlow.
What a wonderful video. It is sad that people don’t appreciate the history and would disrespect these mystical places. I only hope the dummies who did this feel guilty every day. Thank you Kayleigh for your passion and hard work that gives us a chance to see the world.
Thank you for that amazing short documentary. I have some Irish ancestry on my fathers side and feel sad that some would deface such monuments of their ancient ancestors. I think it grounds us to know where we came from as humans. And respect for that history is so very important no matter where we come from. I always hoped to visit the lands of my parents ancestries one day. But sadly have left it too late in life.
Great Doco ! I am of mostly Irish descent through both my parents, so on each visit, I felt as though I belonged ! I spent much of my time there chasing Ancient History, but was particularity taken by the Dolmens, ringforts and souterains through the Burren in County Clare ! However, when speaking of Passage Tombs one shouldn't miss he Dolmen de Menga, Dolmen de Viera and Tholos de El Romeral in Antequera, Spain. They are on the scale of Newgrange, and perhaps even more astounding in their structure ! Another particular interest is the plethora of cup-and-ring marks I've seen throughout Ireland, Scotland and The Hebrides. Some of the Petroglyphic art I've seen is remarkably similar to some of that of the Indigenous Peoples here in Australia, and the Pueblo Tribes of America, and many other people throughout the World !
I so enjoy your videos, I feel the same way, need to preserve the sites for the next generations. It is also very important to me, my ancestors are from Ireland. Hate to see the sites get destroyed. Scandinavia is also having the same problem. The rest of my ancestors came from Scandinavia. Protect all the sites, each on is so precious
Well done Kayleigh. Topographical facts are important too. As for vandals? A court of law or elder, should determine, which house they paint in the community. Love.
Such amazing photography really gives this a sense of wonder. Even a rainbow. Beautifully made documentary of an area of prehistory we don't get explored so often. Can't believe anyone would treat this beautiful sacred places with such disrespect. This is our irreplaceable heritage. May they all be plagued by evil leprechauns. The only thing missing is Kayleigh along for the ride
I used to live about 10 miles away from Loughcrew in the early 2000s. My friends and I were regular visitors to the cairns and many times found free access to the major tomb. The whole site is so wonderful and mind blowing. Talking of which, in late autumn the hillside is plentiful in hallucenagic magic mushrooms. These probably played a role in the ceremonies of the ancient peoples as much as they did for us.
* These probably played a role in the ceremonies of the ancient peoples as much as they did for us.* Not an unreasonable speculation, but be careful talking about the species. The climate when these constructions were made was probably a deal warmer and drier than today. Thay's why so many structures (and occasionally bodies) have been covered by peat since the circa.1500s BCE.
Kayleigh, thanks for sharing this documentary. To know that there were people who studied and gained the knowledge to build such works …all around the world … is mind blowing to me.
I love that spiritual art from these sites. Crazy to think of what it all meant, long ago. The rhythm and reverence these sites set for ancient villages. Speaking of reverence, hopefully Ben & Kirstie learn that lesson! @26:18
A great video. Massive thanks to you, Anthony and Grant for this wonderful exploration of Loughcrew Cairns. I'm ashamed to say that I've never visited them. Something I will have to rectify sometime soon since I'm only down in Cork. The association of the cairns with the Cailleach is very interesting. She's a figure that seems to have links with a lot of our ancient monuments. A site near where I live, Labbacallee, is a wedge tomb which translates into English as the bed of the Cailleach. We also definitely need to bring back cursing people who violate these sites. We used to be very inventive with curses here in Ireland.
I learned a lot. I was unfamiliar with the term cross corner. I'm going to watch this a few more times to make sure I caught everything. I love learning prehistory because I enjoy finding new ways that ancient people weren't as primitive as one might assume.
Awesome video!! i've enjoy a lot of your videos from the past but this one i believe i enjoyed the most. You did awesome presenting the facts and the video within the video was also awesome. i totally enjoy the narrative and scenery of Ireland. i would love to go there and view the carns & other historical sites. Great job Kayleigh!!
Thanks, Kayleigh, for posting the excellent guest video from Ireland. 👍❤ It's my belief that vandals should be dealt a much harsher consequence than the possible curse you mentioned. Orders of magnitude harsher, and irreversible.
Hi Keyliegh, I'm new to your channel and first time posting here. Can I say that I like the fact you are showing the logo of the British Heart Foundation on your tee shirt. I also love your videos. I really like the fact that you are so well informed on your subjects. The research for your videos must be a fill time job in itself.
It is lovely. I suggest you get some folks to survey along some of those long sight lines. There may be something along the path that was used to get the alignments.
Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful documentary! It was well done, interesting and informative. The photography is beautiful! I like that it was filled with information and not sensationalism. Too many history shows and documentaries are 15% facts 75% sensationalism (who were these people, aliens? giants? etc).
I love taking in history, sometimes though I think we think to much into things and put 'special' importance or significance on something that could have simply been - "we need to build shelter here, where can we get best light to come in and light the dark nest we've built" we always seem to have to place some spiritual, astrological or other significance to everything gone by, when if we stop thinking and just imagine what it would have been like to live those days, what did we need and what we would have done, when we think in basic terms, things weirdly enough seem to make more sense lol
Hey! You're back where you started Klee 😃 This is a kewl presentation. Very picturesque and informative. It's my guess that with fire as a visual cue, I imagine one could see with the naked eye one Cairn over long distances to another Cairn. So sad that a few idiots vandalized some sites ruining the chance for others to experience these ancient prehistoric locations. I hope everyone has a beautiful week. Peace and be well.
The same tragic and unnecessary damage and destruction happened to many of the Mississippi and Ohio valley burial mounds in the USA Kayleigh. It always seems to be for the same reason, people looking for treasure or anything of value. I still can't help but wonder about the similiar structure, purpose, and alignment of many of these burial sites to the sun in North America and Europe. The same goes for the Serpent Mound in Ohio, and the one in Scotland near Loch Nell. In Canada there is the serpent mounds park in Keene, Ontario. Britain had the Rotherwas serpent mound. It's like a cultural synchronicity separated by time and distance. Kayleigh, please do a video of these various serpent mounds sites if you get time to so do?
My Mom was from Ballina,Co.Mayo Ireland. She was proud of her heritage. Iam currently reading a book of her's called "The Story of the Irish Race" by Seumas MacManus. It's a very interesting book that touchs briefly on Irish History.🤓
Ive been inside!!! No joke. I was very lucky. Dated a special Irish lass for some time. Her family in Kells held the key to get in. So for a very special treat a group of us were taken inside! I have the photos to prove it too. Actual photos!! the vibe inside is amazing. The petroglyph are stunning too... and so many ruins of tombs, where farmers have used the stone, so all thats left is a cross in the ground. I will defo watch this very soon X
Shout out to Anthony Murphy and megalithic Ireland ., Lar Dooley … and the woman and men that run the megalithic center at Lough Crew! Cannot wait to see you all soon and Lough Crew is a very sacred space!!!
Kayleigh - you will cry at the grafiti in Turkey but the megalithic stones, houses and burial sites are quite beautiful! Happy Trails! oh one more thing - in the first Cairn when he shows the sunlight there is a daisy-like image (see (9:35-9:43) that I have seen all over ancient Sumer, Babylonian and Assyrian walls in their burial mounds and tombs. The men wear it on their wrists and...handbags - not joking. I had one made for my wrist because i just loved it 🙂 check it out!
Mr Murphy - are there any tombs that track Venus our Eastern Star, Western Star and/or Morning and Eastern Star? We use it sailing and I find Venus very special and important. She never lets one down, can always find your way home.
I have written about the fact that folk belief in the 1950s suggested that the Morning Star shone its light into the chamber of Newgrange once in eight years. That would be accurate based on the eight-year cycle of Venus, and the fact that it CAN indeed shine into Newgrange during that cycle.
Having spent many years in and out of Ireland, Im always amazed at the ingenuity, passion and fervor of those early " Irish" in their fixation on the concept of eternal life of the spirit, and see why Christianity, and its similar doctrine, was easily adapted by the Irish when the first Christian missionaries. arrived in the 600 AD. Finally, those who burn chruches and Synagogues are the same mindset as those who vandalize ancient monuments.
Stellar documentary K!!. My lineage goes back to the kings of Breifne, so it was kinda cool hearing the world Letrium. I'm not going to suggest there were red hair giants there. No never.😂
It's interesting how folklore fills in gaps of knowledge. It begs the question, how far back do we have to go to find the beginning of these stories. The folklore can't be that old. If the ancients had stories of how the rocks became to be on the top of the hills, that mean that those ancients weren't the ones to have put those stones there. The stories were created as legends describing events that occurred in their own undocumented history. It suggests that the stones and monuments predate these records. An even older people were the haulers and builders.
gone are those days when we humans were more attune to nature and the seasons, one day when all the modern noise subside , we will once again fall back intune with them, but I'm sad to say there will be far less of us than there is today.
Looking forward to this, and to engaging in conversation and answering questions if there are any! Anthony
Was not expecting to see you featured here. It's great to see this and hopefully it draws many more viewers for you.
I'm completely in agreement with Kayleigh about the terrible cost of vandalism to the ancient art and sites.

As a person with Irish, Welsh and Scottish ancestry, I find the history of the Celtic and Pre-Celtic peoples interesting. We know so little.
Preserve. Respect not only the past, but for our future generations.

Imagine how enchanting it would be before the English destroyed the great oak wood forests and before they exterminated all the wolves.
Great. The drawings looked a lot like other parts of the World.
My one regret is that I can only "like" this video once
I agree Jeff. 👍🏼

I have been to most of those places over the years! Sometimes it takes a stranger to point out the beauty in your own backyard
That was utterly fascinating! I love the relationship the people of that area and era had with the Sun and nature. Thank you for sharing this!
What a wonderful video. It is sad that people don’t appreciate the history and would disrespect these mystical places. I only hope the dummies who did this feel guilty every day. Thank you Kayleigh for your passion and hard work that gives us a chance to see the world.
There's always something mystical about neolithic monuments
Visted three of the tombs on the way from Dublin to Belfast, this was fascinating, thanks.
THANKS FOR TODAY! YOU ARE LOOKING WELL!

views from the site on a clear day are excellent
