    You braved a cold morning and not only did you respect the land of past kings. I wish they could have banded together. But back then we were tribes. Land was everything. The horslips should be the background Kufic lol , but your breath is sweeter. The sound of the crows . I love that sound. They will siesta take care of out beautiful land . )0( we have such a rich history . I love my history . I can’t speak my mother tongue and that’s a new chapter. But I love this video. It’s raw and unfettered. Go raibh mile mhaith agat.

    Thanks so much for taking the time to do this, as an archaeology student in lock down this video was a God send! You really helped me understand the layout and the beauty of Tara. Also the wind sounds made it all a little more real. :-) Thanks again.

    I was there about 5 months after this video. I do not recall the work in progress when I was there. Thankfully, it was foggy when I visited so the crows were not so loud. By the way, I was able to lift my foot to the top of the Stone of Destiny. I guess I am your KING! 😂😂😂

      @@davidpryle3935 yes!! My moms grandparents migrated from Ireland to US in early 1900s. So, we have not been in America very long in comparison to our roots in Ireland. And, my grandfather's parents migrated from Scotland the same time. So, they met in America and the Irish and Scott heritage carried on here in the States. But, I've always had the desire to return to the roots. The DNA has the memories and history of thousands of years in Ireland and Scotland embedded in the body . 7

      @@maryannscanlan7819 I come from close to Tara, and I still live quite near it. It is indeed a very historical and spiritual place. It’s not spectacular or anything compared to some of the glorious scenery in other parts of Ireland, but it is a special place. You have a great lineage, from Ireland, and Scotland. It’s only natural that you feel drawn to these ancient lands of your ancestors. That said, both peoples carved out a place for themselves in U.S history. I once visited the Tenement museum in lower manhattan, and done the tour. Amazing history of the Irish in New York. Nothing as ancient as Tara of course, but just as important, in it’s own way.
