    On the coast of Northern Ireland, a vast plateau of basalt slabs and columns called the Giant’s Causeway stretches into the ocean. The scientific explanation for this is that it’s the result of molten lava contracting and fracturing as it cooled in the wake of a volcanic eruption. But an ancient Irish myth has a different accounting. Iseult Gillespie recounts the Giant's Causeway myth.
    Lesson by Iseult Gillespie, animation by Dylan Glynn.

    It's amazing how on the opposite side of the world, on the philippine island of Bohol, there's a bunch of hills called the chocolate hills and the locals' myth was 2 giants were throwing earth at each other to form the hills.

      Kairu Sky - The myth is not about how the rocks came to be in the water way. It's a lesson to teach younger generations of how to protect their homeland from superior forces. Don't face a superior force head on. Instead, retreat, regroup and use your cunning. The lesson could also be applied to life in general.

      Yeah definitely the culture in Ireland before England ruled it was different under Brehon law (tge old law of ireland in the 1400s I believe) Women could own proper and get divorces etc the society was quite fair to women so a lot of myths have women as hero's.But when Christianity came and the whole 'Adam and Eve' story meant women got unfairly treated under common law (the old English laws)

    I had heard the same story albeit a little different. When Oona says that her husband and child eat the same type of bread, she asks Benadonner to check the baby's teeth to see how sharp it is. Benadonner does that and his middle finger is ripped by Finn. Since Benadonner's entire strength was on his middle finger, he thus has no strength left and is forced to run away.

    This is quite different to the one i know. Fionn wasn't a giant, he was just a famous irish rí who used to brag a lot about his talents, and then challenged benandonner. The scottish giant benandonner heard of him, and built the bridge between scotland and ireland so he could come challenge fionn. Una then devised the plan with the baby because finn and her knew he couldn't win. Then he fled back destroying the bridge as he went.

    Ireland is rich with folklore and myths, the giants causeway is one of my favourite stories but there are so many other good stories like the ones about banshees, leprechauns, and my personal favourite Cú Chulainn, an Irish warrior who fought like a god and single handedly defended the north of Ireland against an entire army around 2000 years ago. He also managed to kill an Irish wolfhound with one shot of a sliotar (a small leather ball used in hurling) when he was just 10 years old.

    Something I find really funny about old mythology is how their can be such differing versions of the same story
    The tale of the Giant's Causeway that I've always knows was it was a Giantess in Scotland and a man from Ireland who fell in love from looking at each other over the sea. They threw rocks to make a pathway to each other, but could not make it long enough. Before giving up, in a fit of rage the Giantess threw a chunk of land into the ocean which made the isle of man

      Yup plus the story i heard was had two more differences
      1- Fionn bragged and the Scottish Giant wanted to fight to see who was stronger so sent a letter Fion built the causeway so he could cross
      And 2- Una first heard of the Scottish Giants size not Fionn
      But then again depending on the county the myth changes

      perharbs the myth is that he was as strong if not stronger then the giants which is why he was so special

    This feels a lot like an old fairy tale I used to hear. I guess it would make sense that a lot of old fairy tales would just be retellings of old myths so that way you don't get in trouble for talking about them, but it is still great to know where it came from.
