    Thank you for this terrific series of documentaries on Pictish history. I greatly appreciate the clearing away of the past and present misconceptions of why our ancestors took the time and effort to erect these structures. In my youth I have searched for and explored the stones of West Cork and Kerry. Excellent work.

    I just appreciate the fact that there are nice people who are out there documenting these beautiful sites! Thank you! Our family moved away from Scotland in 1848, but DNA testing shows that on our Dad's line we are Pict and Icelandic Scot. (Norwegian) from The Ayrshire/ River Clyde area and Aberdeen as far North as the Shetland Islands where the Pict met the Norse in our line. Also verbal and written link to Glencoe being traced by my brother. Your videos of this area help greatly!

      Paradox time.It was mystical mumbo jumbo that created them that thousands of years later archaeology attempts to understand. it is new agers who may have a better emotional attachment.

    Definitely linked to our use of headstones. The Viking burial with a stone ship outline shows representation. The stones represent people. They are from livestock farming people. Milk,cheese etc is so important to human culture. The seasons are important. People were superstitious and in touch with their spiritual side.

    I think it's enough to recognize that humans need to feel a sense of permanence; something bigger than themselves. These may or may not be static tools used to frame and measure shifting celestial changes, but either way, the construction of a lasting and invulnerable space was surely motivation enough.

  • @csluau5913

    That is a remarkable idea...and it makes sense. I think the circle is a symbol of eternity, continuity, and that all people are part of the circle / cycle of life...a clan or family. An ancient idea that is beyond the reckoning of time in many old and modern cultures. I do however think that it is a place of pilgrimage and meditation/ personal worship as well as a site of symbolic rebirth or continuity in the presence or sight of the ancestors...a memorial that draws in the energy of the living world and focuses it upon the memory of those who went before us and are still with us in a way.

    Quartz is in many ancient stone monuments made of grantite; quartz holds electrical charges.

    • @caledonianson927
      @caledonianson927 5 років тому +2

      Yes they do and any dowser worth their salt will tell you the circles are electrically connected.

      Yes. Piezoelectric transduction: the interplay between physical force and electric charge.

    They were brutal times. There was early death and suffering, no antibiotics, women and children died in childbirth, dental abscesses, ear infections. They loved, formed bonds and attachments. What a beautiful way to eternally honor their tribe.

    Thank you for the video! Fascinating theories and evidence. Was there every any evidence that the recumbent stones may have framed particular events like summer and winter solstice, perhaps being used like a seasonal calendar. They could have been used in conjunction with the burial rights to mark certain sacred burial times.

  • @JohnDelong-qm9iv

    The first wave of post flood giants built memorials to the events transpiring in the deluge. Due to inbreeding , they were easily defeated by later waves of immigrant sea going invaders.

    12:10 - 12:20 Doesn't it look like one of the Pictish "seahorses" or creatures on the stone that he's leaning on? It's shaped the same. And at 12:10 between his leg and the stone, look at the Pictish crescent. How could he miss that?

    • @heraldeventsandfilms5970
      @heraldeventsandfilms5970 4 роки тому

      That only YOU can see. They are Neolithic monuments, thousands of years before Pictish symbols. Of course Picts COULD have carved images on them but in the case of the stones in the video, they didn't.

    • @johnmorgan5495

      He has done other films on Pict symbols / images , in this one he is talking about what they 'may' have been built for. How could you miss that ?

  • @arnman2093
    @arnman2093 4 роки тому +2

    Any evidence seen on the stone surfaces such as the bore holes could have been done anytime over a period of the thousands of years. It is not necessarily part of the original construction.
