Lots of books were destroyed by the British when they invaded. A professor from Trinity college dublin visiting england in the 1890s was asked by a Lord he was visiting to examine a book that the Lord thought might be egyptian. He said it was in his family for generations but he didn't know where it came from. The professor looked at the book and i quote from his diary." I turned pale and then feared the Lord saw this, for if he knew he had a book of ancient Irish laws(brehon laws) he would have surely throw it in the fire" so he told him he didnt know but could he take it back to ireland to study. The lord agreed and needless to say he never got it back. Still can be seen in trinity college. Can you imagine what was destroyed when they invaded. We never will know the full extent. But interesting he taught it looked egyptian.
Fairytales. Brehon Law doesn't even pre-date Christianity let alone the pyramids of Egypt, which is the only reason anyone ever mentions Egypt. If anything was lost due to the same Brits who created Trinity College burning a few books, it was only the codifications created by their subservient serfs n their lackeys.
@@SPIDERM0OSE wow you must be the most educated UA-cam researcher iv every came across. Stonehenge is a cute little pile of rocks compared to Newgrange which is a couple of thousand years older then Stonehenge
This is why materials as this are frequently classified as "Ephemera." As a child I inherited my grandmother's 700 volume library. I had a pile beside my bed to throw at my younger brother when he bothered me. When I went off to college my sister boxed them up and announced to my mother she saw no reason why I would ever want old books anyway. My father died shortly after my parents 50th Anniversary, I helped my mother clear the house in preparation to sell it. It was then, decades later, I discovered he had preserved and protected them for me. Many turned out be early commercial publications of the likes of Greyfriar's Bobby and my Grandmother's correspondence with the author. One was a water damaged copy of Seven Pillars of Wisdom by T.E. Lawrence that had intrigued me in my early teen years. It had eventually lead me to spend almost 6 months travelling Iraq, Syria Jordan and Palestine with a map I'd copied from it. At one time I was an Archives and Special Collections Librarian and I never got over my veneration of old books. So very much is lost, because no one appreciates its potential.
I held my breath reading this, fearful that the volumes were lost to you! Thank you for your understanding and dedication to the continuation of knowledge. Our change to the digital medium makes me fear for our ultimate future, along with the loss of traditional ways and peoples. I'm deeply happy that your story had such a happy ending, and your sharing it. --from a fellow bibliophile, library included. ❤️
💯💯💯💯💯 This was the first channel I ever heard speak of Irem. Before then, it was something spoken among us Sufi (Melchizedek Order) & kinda in hushed tones. We never spoke of it with others, so hearing it on Mysterious Middle East, really felt welcoming. Thank you🙏🏿
There are specific scary stories Iraqi grandmas tell about the 'sluagh' which I know is part of Gaelic folklore. Some of these stories are passed down through generations and predate the internet. My grandmother heard it from her grandmother and both women lived most of their lives in a village near the marshes. I have also noticed other ties to Irish folklore specifically. I have always felt connected to Celtic traditions too (since I was a kid) and have never really understood why or where it came from.
its indoeuropean not celtic. The indoeuropean white persians brought those stories to you. We germans, the english and even the indians have the same myths
Fact our word "druid" comes from sandkrit "driú vid". "Vid" meaning knowledge. "Vid" is the same root work for the vedas, the hindu texts. The druids were the priestly knowledgable class
I think the fact that we're always so mystified about our ancestors achievements displays our inability to understand that they were far more sophisticated than we've been led to believe.
Today, we are led to assume that anything older than our own culture must necessarily be more primitive. This is a destructive logical fallacy that follows a long tradition of erasing history. My ancestors were Vikings, and Christianity appropriated, absorbed or destroyed almost all traces of my culture's heritage.
I’m from Iran. Born and raised. I look like a typical Persian, white skin, almond brown eyes, dark brown hair. When I took a DNA test for my tribal ancestry, my highest genetics match was to Northern Ireland, followed by Southern Ireland and then to Caucasians of Afghanistan ( by a large margin). I was shocked. I had plenty of Northern Europe in the mix. Years later, I had a child with an English man and my son was born w red hair. A very Irish thing. To have a red hair baby, one must be a recessive. I know of no one w red hair in my family. Anyhow, the whole thing is very mysterious.
Norma Jeane what’s funny is that my husband was married to a full Irish woman and had 3 children. She was an Irish person w a redhead mother and 2 redhead siblings. None of my husband’s 3 children w her have red hair! His child w mine does. Genetics is a weird thing.
Norma Jeane in Iran, we always called our heritage as true Arians and that’s what Iran means. I had heard similar things about the name of Ireland.. I wonder if iranians and Irish are related and seperated from the original Aryan group that was in Central Asia/north India? Not sure. I know Afghanistan was also called Ariana. That was the original name of Afghanistan. .
That is extremely odd, I'm alot irish-scott-english-german and I have had a lot of people even Americans of African decent say something about my race, my hair is extremely dark my eyes a very light hazel with olive skin and even some Asian traits my eyes are not as round as a anglos and my headshape is more similar to a person from the Mediteranian. I would not look out of place in most of north Africa to Iran to Eurasian countries. I would like to get DNA tested sometime.
I am 2ed gen Irish born in the states on both sides of my family. My husband was German and Dutch. Our son did a DNA test that traced back to the middle east. We were utterly confused and assumed the test was flawed. This video makes SO MUCH sense to me now !!
I am Moroccan amazigh aka berber and my mom looks Irish never noticed it since we are so mixed in my family but when I immigrated to the US I always felt something weird when I looked at poeple from Irish descent it's like they are my family they reminded me of my courageous grand father who lived in the mountains and the beautiful face of my mother and never understood how can my mother family all look Irish and still tell her when I talk to her that she does but she doesn't understand where that part of the world is or look like.
I'm Irish, Swedish and German. Got a dna test and was all those things as thought, but I was 10% Palestinian. Where the hell did that come from? It makes more sense now lol
@Michael Sean May I ask, what country you live in? This is ALL so incredibly interesting to me. Our last name is O'Reilly. My father was the name sake of a Irish Catholic priest who stood along side the Irish immigrants (him being one) in the war ( more like street fight) of NY , back when it was New Amsterdam. If you watch the movie "New Amsterdam " with Leonardo DiCaprio, the priest was depicted in that movie. That movie is kinda like the "Titanic". Mostly historically accurate. ......with the exception of the "Rose and Jack" story line........New Amsterdam is a great movie if you can sit threw the 3 1/2 hours. Hahaha. My husband past away when my youngest was 3 months old. I am doing my best to trace down his lineage, but so far............well if my son didn't look exactly like me, I might think I brought the wrong kid home with the DNA he has come up with. Hahaha, China, Pakistani, Spain, India.......if you look it follows the East Indian trade routes. Then there is Viking (who invaded Ireland) I just find it SO fascinating. Where we all came from, where we ended up. How we can trace our lineage and compare it to our DNA. I am telling you it is an AMAZING time to be alive.
@@Storytime23144 My mother and father looked SO MUCH a like that when she was pregnant with me, people always asked my father "Oh, when is your sister due?" Hahaha it pissed my mother off to NO END because my father finally gave up explaining and would just say "She's due in November ". 😃😃 My Grandmother used to say "That is because our family's were part of the same tribe." I can't tell you how many times I have had actual ARGUMENTS with people who SWORE I was someone I wasn't, or that they JUST saw me some where I had never been. I don't know if you or your wonderful mother have ever taken a DNA test but it is worth the $125. !! From there you can search the internet and trace your lineage. It may sound boring but it is SO fascinating that it becomes an addiction almost. One way or another, weather you have Irish lineage or not.......you and your wonderful, courageous family are ALWAYS welcome as extended and honored cousins. For such a small island, that almost perished under genocide and has been (and STILL is) an occupied country, we have spread far and wide. We say "everyone is Irish on St. Pat's day" but most of us see being Irish as NOT only being from Ireland, or DNA but a set of values and state of mind. Erin go bragh, cousin. Sla'inte is ta'inte to you and yours !! 💰💰🍀🍻
Watching from Australia here, just letting you know this channel is so good guys! The production quality of these videos are too good, keep up the great work boys!
I am of Irish descent and I always do this. There were about three or four colonizations of Ireland the stories of the fearlaeth and the ferBolga I'm using talk to text and it just won't copy correctly and the tautha du dannin. The melanesians. The giant balllor of bales. The one-eyed for formoan king. Who was a pirate from an island. My grandmother's hair was as black as silt. And so was her daughter's. And the Irish had gypsies too. Though they had a different name. The island was originally uninhabited until the older tribes the formoans came from the middle East. They wared with the children of Danu. Until peace was made through marriage everybody in the world is related to somebody else so the kings of old are the ancestors of the present-day people I am a direct descendant of Cormac McCarthy high King of all of Ireland. And Ballor of Bales. The king of the formoans. The McCarthy's lost the high seat to the O'Neal's. We also sided against Queen Elizabeth and with the Spanish. For some reason I'm thinking 1540 but the Spanish Armada was 1599.and Here's a little bit of information for you. Leprechauns and fairies both exist. Although I've never seen a banshee.
Yes, I met a red haired Irish "Gypsy" and I know that fairies exist, in another realm, not necessarily of the material but could be.... Melanesians you say, they are people like the indigenous from New Caledonia, so that is a long way from Ireland. Hmmm... not sure about the Melanesians but I think I know where you are "coming from" - pun partly intended ;)
@@johnpatrick5307 Indo Europeans are pale skinned invaders from Western Asia, who invaded via The Black Sea and The Caucasus. So yes, 'Modern Irish' (Viking invasions) are Indo Europeans. But they are NOT the native, indegenous population of Western Europe. They are historically recent (11 centuries ago) Germanic/Saka/Turkic invaders.
A very long time ago I recall reading about a nomadic tribe in Morocco who's language is so similar to Welsh that the 2 ethnic groups could easily have a full blown conversation with no problems understanding each other.
8:44 "this is only a theory ..." As a scientist, I feel compelled to point out a couple of things here... First of all, a "theory" has greater certitude and is a higher level of organization of information than is a "fact." many facts are required to develop a theory. So the phrase "only a theory" is both nonsensical and grossly misleading. Secondly, what then follows this misleading phrase is not a theory, it is a hypothesis. Fortunately, the phrase, "this is only a hypothesis..." makes perfect sense. It is important to contribute to scientific literacy, and we do so when by getting our concepts correct. Peace 🙏
As a north african berber I have noticed a striking resemblance in the paterns used to decorate traditional carpets, they either came to us or we went to them for sure.
@@kevinjones3900 so did Greeks, Romans et al. My daughters dna can be traced from saudi through North Africa ( Berber) across Spain to Scotland. Mine is Scots and Irish mainly. Her father is from Tunisia, ( Berber).
Always amazing content. When i visited Ireland, i learnt the Irish also historically had a strong oral tradition much like the Middle East and was something that struck as being very similar to the Jewish and Arab cultures. The Irish are naturally very expressive in their words and maintain knowledge of their folklore through poems and songs. This being a tradition continued on from the Gaelic people.
I thought I was the only one who had made this observation, I spent 14yrs going back and forth to Ireland and had the pleasure of growing up around two Irish families in London, the cultures are incredibly similar as you stated, maybe Catholicism had a part to play keeping communities together
Every people group on earth had and some still have strong oral traditions and has nothing to do with arabs or jews, its just basic human behaviour, why not compare it to the ancient Greeks or Persians as the same can be said about them, and arguably they are the source of arab oral traditions. The Irish are closely related to the Basque's of northern spain The Basque's being one of if not the most persecuted people in history. The Basque's not only being the closest mainland relation to the indigenous Irish but are also very closely related to the indigenous peoples of Japan the Ainu. The narrative of history as given to us is incorrect.
Back in the day, the sea wasn't a barrier. It was land-travel that was very difficult. The sea was the path of least resistance for people, goods, and ideas. The Romans hated the water. They were a land-centric empire. And this has had a distorting effect on how we look at antiquity.
This is so true! Native American tribes used waterways for extensive trading. We had a pre colonial city called Cahokia that was as big as London and was a huge trading center from what is Mississippi and the Gulf of Mexico all the way into Polynesia….boats ;)
@@lunakat6369 it was similar in pre-Roman Europe. Ireland had trade links all the way to Afghanistan. I've been down the Mississippi. Was intrigued by Cohokia but never had a chance to really look into it. Not too civilized around that neck of the woods these days. Seemed very desolate.
Spain was Celtic long before Muslim or Roman conquest and has many artifacts from far away places. There is even evidence that there was once a city called Tartessos that mysteriously disappeared from historical sources. Likely Spanish Celts traded with their northern counterparts.
Seems like we’re rooting up more evidence every day that illustrates that we really don’t know what has been going on in the past. Information like this tends to make today’s issues seem not so unusual.
Yes indeed-‘today’s issues seem not so unusual.’ They only seem impossible to understand when looking a history in the flat earth modern day mindset of evolutionary archaeology/biology... As it obscures these extremely close connections we have to the past. Whereas evolutionary biology makes us think we are long separated... But at the same time it also seems kind of ridiculous how we (naturally) will only look back so far, like a few generations in our traceable family tree and then act like that is our origin point. It reminds me of how Hollywood or folklore even, will only look back to a certain (usually) deified person, not continue back further to the origins of the deified person... like all the super hero movies, never explain the source of the source... Like they don’t want to mess up a ‘good’ story with the real story-‘our’ (/‘the’) true/ultimate origin story...
@@GMC-qo9xi nope, just going beyond a certain latitude will cause new stars to appear which is solid proof for spherical earth. But very interesting question indeed , thinking about it I just realised that flat earth comes from ancient Greece who were not particularly good at navigation. Where as the rest of the world had perfected navigation for example Scythians, Vikings , Indians etc. But the Greeks were not privy to these secrets of the universe and hence made fantasy tales for authentic geological models, fomenko argues that all history before 11th century is just pure fantasy tales made to cover up the real events. And that this mainstream history is an altered version of the real events from 11th century onwards made to look way more antique than they were
My 81 year old father had a genetic test. Tracking back 500 years, his entire genetic background was located in a 30 mile square of the Roscommon/Galway border. They still call him a "Blow in" 😃
Holy Crap, a place with Ross in it still in Ireland! I thought you renamed most of those after Ross' Occupied you guys and went around naming stuff after Ourselves. Example would be the Town Major General Robert Ross (who sacked DC) grew up in, it was named Ross something, but than you guys renamed it...
@@randyross5630 btw "Ross" means either "Headland" (New Ross, Roscarbery) or "Woods" (Roscommon). The surname is after the place not the other way around 🙂
@@MrRugbylane Wrong!!! Ross' hail from the once War Masters of Scotland the Chiefs of the Great Clan Ross the Earls of Ross! And since the 1st Stuart King married as his Second Wife the 1st official Ross the 4th Earl of Ross, Hugh Ross 1st to take on the Surname long before the Advent of Surnames, Daughter a Countess Ross and their 4 Royal Children became the Heirs to the Stuart Kingship or Queenship that one time, the Stuarts did not like having so many cousins that had fallen into commonality, because we had to many children for any amount of titles to keep up with, so all Ross' that could not prove their pedigree by paperwork become MacKenzie's, and for centuries Ross was a protected surname like it was also in the past, and since Britian ruled Ireland, and Ross' many of your actual Gentry Occupiers, no one in Ireland once you had to have surnames could pick Ross! And all those places with Ros or Ross this, are places we named after ourselves during our Occupation, and most Ross' in Ireland are Ross' and not named after where they were born, similar to how the Chief of Ross the 4th Earl of Ross took on the Surname for the Earldom he Ruled, the Earldom of Ross, and since we were the Richest and most Powerful Pedigree, Family, Clan! In the Highlands second only in power to the King who was also our Cousin generally, no one could name themselves Ross in the past either. Not even in England, for long before the Stuarts as Royals we bred with all the other Royals, like the English Crown, French Crown and the Sort! So we named those places after us, and one of us, named himself, after the Earldom and Clan he ruled. However since we are Sycthians which is in Russia, and Rossiia's true name is Rossiia or Rossiya I don't think we are getting the completeness of the Name Ross! Odd the Scoti who where Sycthians would name the Heart and Blood of the Highlands, Ross-shire, since our original Homeland (after Egypt) was later also called Ross, or should I say Ros like we both use to be named... Odd and surely allot more to this story...
On my first visit to Morocco 40 years ago, I was watching four street musicians, two violin players and two percussionists. The rhythms and scales were a bit alien to my ears to start with but the musicianship was superb so I tipped them and hung around a while. I noticed that I coud count in both threes and fours and then one of those cold shivers went down my back as the thought came out of nowhere that if the Irish band The Chieftains were here they would be jamming effortlessly within a couple of minutes with these street performers. The name of one of the percussive instrument was called bendir which was very similar to the Irish bodhran.
Bagpipes definitely don't come from the Celts or Brits or whoever, they are also played in India, so they've been around far longer than many of us thought.
In terms of archeology and genetics arguably one of the earliest records of human activity in Ireland was the remnants of a butchered deer bone found in a cave in either Kerry or cork I believe that dates from 30,000 years ago. And is one of the oldest artefacts for human activity in the British isles. And in Irish mythology the coming of people to Ireland is seen in waves and this is reflected through history too. Where we had prehistoric hunter-gatherers, neolithic farmers, and then the bronze age Smith's and craftsmen. And these peoples likely came here through boat or through land bridges just at the end of the last ice age. And in our mythology you have the fomorians, the tuatha de danann, and the Gaels (with the fir bolg shoehorned in as well). We learn a lot of this from the pseudohistorical book of invasions in which the Irish are the descendants of Noah after the flood and eventually they split into three groups the tuatha de dannan, the fir bolg, and Gaels. The fir bolgs go to Greece where they are enslaved and made to carry bags of soil for agriculture (hence fir bolg means men of bags), the tuatha went to the north to 3 cities where they learned magic and sorcery. The Gaels went to Iberia where they learned warfare, crafting, smithing, and how to work the land and one of their soldiers was the Míl Espaine or (the soldier of Spain). First the fir bolg came who where then conquered by the tuatha and their magic, then the Gaels came who conquered the tuatha due to their better mastery of the land. While pseudohistorical the idea of our ancestors coming from Iberia is found not only in Irish texts but also in a few other medieval Christian texts and it is described as the "motherland of all races". But let's go back to the historical people's. You have prehistoric hunter gatherers who were then conquered by neolithic farmers who there then conquered by bronze age Smith's and craftsmen. Now post-glacial we find the emergence of the ancient Version of the Basque language spread throughout Europe going north, followed by Indo-European language spread in the early neolithic times spreading west, followed by the Semitic languages coming up the western coast of Europe. And in fact, the "Celtic language" emerged quite later in Europe. The term Celtic in fact is really only a linguistic term for la guage groups and at best a cultural one too, but it is not a genetic or ethnic term. An interesting features in all of this is the bell-beaker culture which was a style of pottery and arguably people that we think came from Portugal and spread out all over Europe at the time and some of the earliest recorded evidence we have of this comes from Iberia and Portugal. This pottery made its way to Ireland and is believed to have lasted in Ireland for a period of time after the decline of this culture in mainland Europe. And it is widely believed that the Celts came from central Europe. However, this translation is based on a mistake. When the historian Herodotus beloved that the Danube started in the Pyrenees and that the homeland of the Celts was at the sources of the Danube. So later on, scholars in the 19th-20th centuries had better maps and knew that the Danube started in central Europe and so this account of Herodotus was changed to it meaning central Europe, even though everything thing else Herodotus states says the Celts originated in Iberia. So we have archeological evidence stating that there is a great link between Ireland and Iberia, and also written accounts from Ireland and Rome stating yea the Celts came from here. But what about genetics? Well it has been found that in terms of blood groupings and DNA evidence that the Basque peoples, modern day Iberians, and modern day Irish and Scottish people and linked closer to each other than any other peoples in Europe. So we can pretty much say that the ancient Irish came from somewhere in the Iberian peninsula. Moreover due to the Iberian peninsulas close proximity to North Africa and it being on the Mediterranean and that Iberia has one of the highest levels of North African DNA in Europe and can be found all the way back to Carthaginian times if not perhaps before this also. So there is a strong link between Ireland and North Africa. Plus if we go into Christian times in the early centuries in Ireland a lot of the artwork teachings brought to Ireland from missionaries who came from the Mediterranean and Roman Britain settled here and directly had an effect on early Irish-christian culture. However, in terms of bel and ba'al. It's likely that bel wasn't an Irish god and merely a creation of early Irish Christian scholars because they did in fact make up characters and stories. For example, the children of lir is an entirely Christian story. Moreover, his association with the festival of Beltane is an entirely a modern belief as with all Irish festival they used to mark certain dates in the agricultural year. It doesn't mean fire of bel it most likely means bright fire and was used to mark summer and the return of good weather. Moreover, we can tell which gods in Irish mythology were real and which ones were fictional through entomology, archeology, and depiction. For example Lugh is most likely an Irish version of the Indo-European god Lugus as their name is the same and they have similar associations. And moreover lughs depiction Irish mythology is never consistent he is either a great hero, a magical human, a druid, a spirit, and that in the story of the tailteann games is seen to be be victorious over the spirits of the otherworld seemingly implying he's not one. Bel has none of this and just vaguely appears. It's likely that early Christian scholars were aware of this demon in Christian belief and while writing about Ireland's ancient past put him as to highlight Ireland's pagan past with a demon they were familiar with.
It is important to consider that the size of the population of Ireland post ice age would have been very small. So even a small arrival of new settlers would go on to have a big impact on genetics and also on linguistic development.
Oh my goodness thank you THANK YOU GOD THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS EVER SINCE I SENT YOU THE ARTICLE ON PATREON ABOUT THE SCARAB FOUND ON TARA HILL I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS VIDEO PATIENTLY! GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR RESEARCH AND YOUR TEAM!
There is an entire intact city sitting under 1600 feet of water off Cubas western coast. Sonar shows temples, pyramids and many other structures. One geologist stated the last time the land was above water was at least 50,000 years ago. Another pushed the date even further back. This area should be the first place looked at, and is not that far from the Bimini Road.
16% of Irish people have the RH- negative blood gene including myself so I would love to see a video on this & where exactly my RH- ancestors came from?
I'm Scotch Irish German decent and A. Indian with RH- also. I don't know about you but it seems in our family has a strong psyche since, the women especially sensitive to sickness and death. Example, my grandmother, the foot of her bed would shake and lift up slam to the floor 3 nights in a row a week before a family member passing. Also a relative of ours was one of the Salam witches burnt at the stake. It would be fascinating to learn more sound proof if there is any
@@arosefortes6507 I come from a family of white whites & psychics. My grandmother read tea leafs & I would dream events & know when close friends are pregnant or about to get pregnant.

And to answer that the origin ancient stone I saw as a child around 9 or 10 .. Im not 5 times that .. :) was carved in Ogham ..and 3 gliphs Egyptian .. .I cannot be sure I was but a child but it looked that way. I heard the story of a Wedding from a sea crash on the western coast of an Exotic Princess from where her father was a pharoh.. and she married an Irish High Chieftain and they were in a great battle .. the Queen Scotia faught bravely for her kin then fell and yet they won the battle ..her descendants went on to another land and Formed Scotland in honour of her and her descendants became the Gael... .. anyway that is the story.. from a resident as child below Scotia Glen ... ... later generations formed trading routes and also moved further up the west to Galway to give Grainne Mhaol... or Bald Grainne a female whom became a chieftain 11 Husbands and scoffed at Queen Elizabeth the 1st.. anyway.. North Africa Berber.. Irish.. totally the same go look at Irish Aran sweater and compare to Berber weaves and knots... :)
The Irish are Indo-Europeans, from the Steppes. They are the whitest people in Europe See son of manu But Berbers are found in Scotland, though See: Extraordinary Scottish DNA
Exactly this. Egyptian beads in an Irish grave from the 1300s completely ignores the presence of the sea king ‘Vikings’ in Ireland in previous centuries too. They had extensive trade networks and arabic coins frequently turn up as grave goods in archeological digs. Not too much of a stretch to apply a rational, logical explanation, surely?
@@_Vikingr This whole subject matter is rife with woo. Not only did ancient people trade possessions, they also traded ideas. I am totally open minded but extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence and the crumbs we’re left with from deep antiquity pose many questions but leave few answers, especially when it comes to the topic of a sophisticated and technologically advanced pre ice age civilisation, giants, ancient aliens etc. There are too many true believers who don’t understand the difference between secondary and primary evidence and so they rely not on first hand investigation but on what they read, which is often based on skewed interpretations of “evidence” that authors twist to support their confirmation biases and beliefs. This is so frustrating because it keeps the truth at a distance. Ego in this area is particularly dangerous - too many middle aged men resolute that their theory is the right one. The truth is that in many cases, they do not know. Hawass may be right, he may be wrong, Hancock has been proved right in America Before but not the Younger Dryas impact hypothesis, Bauval may never be proved right etc.
Thanks for this wonderful job of historic insight and paranormal constituants of two very closely related civilizations ... moreover, as an Algerian, I have always found striking similarities between Irish and berber music ( Algerian province of Kabylie ).

Celtic music is distinctve in that the beat and order of the notes follow the Sanskrit music still played in India. We know that European languages are Indo European in their roots.
This is basically what the Oera Linda book says as well about the phoenicain/Gaul connection to Ireland and Britain. The Gauls/Golen were Phoenician priests that came from the Levant or modern Lebanon area.
This is right on! Keep up the excellent research work. This is best place for nonbiased journalism of this nature. Don't allow anything to entice you into changing except in the ways you need to as your methods and confidence expand.
The Irish come from galicia, in Spain. They're redheads. First king "father of the Irish race'" was gallego. The redheaded berbers were the "moors". All the above speak a form of Gaelic. I'm gallega, and dna says I'm part Irish and north african. Yes, redhead, so there was much dna shared there.
Can't be a long term trade hub without marrying people from other cultures, adapting material culture, and adjusting language to facilitate communication.
We can only speculate about how ancient people ended up where they did. We are all children of the first men and women, every single person today has a direct and unbroken decent back to the beginning of people regardless of what they believe they are. And within our DNA we hold a tiny piece of every person who makes up our being!!It's truly amazing!!
There was a stone called the Benben stone in the ancient temple of Ra, Heliopolis. I live in Egypt but come from Ireland. I thought of this when I saw this stone, we have a mountain in Ireland called Benbulben and I wondered about that at the time. There are also depictions of Celtic Warriors here. In Ireland a traditional Irish name is Niamh (pronounced Neeve), here in Egypt Neeven is a popular name. I wondered about that too. Also the name Norah which is common here and in Ireland.
The Scots origin was half Egyptian and half Greek the subject has been well covered on U TUBE. The Druids who are the Druze of today are descendants of Ishmael , mentioned in the bible. He was of mixed blood a Hebrew and Egyptian. ?
Excellent work here. In the 1990’s I came across an article that stated the Irish bag pipes and kilt came from the Middle East. I never forgot that and here many years later I come across this amazing video. Thanks for your work.
I wonder if this could explain Melungeons of the Appalachian Mts- my family is melungeon characterized most notably by the dark/black curly thick hair and the deeper olive /darker skintones ofte There are a lot of theories about where these traits come from or whether melungeons exist at all. However after doing a recent DNA i was surpised to find out i waz 75% irsh/scotch 10% Sub sahara African and 15% eastern european. The Appalachians were notably settled by the scotch and irish. This is fascinating
I watched a history of “gypsies”,of whom some settled in USA. And wondered if melungeons have any DNA testing relating to gypsies. Never even thought about this thread! Your mention of Eastern European made me think gypsies. Their language, though, is related to Indian dialects. So complex!
Beware the sub Saharan markers. I've seen evidence of them falsifying this result for people of European descent. Of course it could be true, idk you, I know if I had it in my results it would be fraudulent though.
In the 1970s, when we were still in high school, an Irish correspondent told a friend that the Irish were or considered themselves the Arabs of the north. with regard to the structure of Richat, if you do further research you will find similar structures in the Saharan south of Algeria. here we call "haouche" (house), a dwelling with outbuildings or an agricultural estate. Greetings from Algeria! (i subscribe too )
But the Arabs only settled North Africa in the 7th century AD. The connection of the Irish and the Middle East is supposed to go way back in history. At least that's what some people claim.
@@mr.dorianblackwell …. There is no dna connection special to the Irish from the Middle East . The nearest thing to it is the Early European Farmer (Neolithic) dna from Anatolia. However this is found too in all Europeans … greater in the Mediterranean region and to a much lesser extent in Northern Europe. In fact the Irish are quite low in this genetic make up. I believe this video and this channel in general to be purposely extremely misleading.
@@raffles7556 Yes, you're probably right. And if their is a genetical connection, it's between all European people and the Near East/Middle East. Funny how some people think the Arabs were an important source of genetics, when they only settled these parts in the 7th century during the Islamic conquests. There were other people in the Middle East and Northern Africa who don't exist anymore. Maybe only as assimilated into other nations. I wrote about it in another comment, how the Egytians of today have nothing to do with the Egytians of ancient times. Weird, isn't it? About the channel itself, I haven't seen enough of the other videos to have a full picture. But from what I've seen these are actually just theories and not factual history. Especially when you look at those mythical stories.
terrible misunderstanding that the deity Baal is worshipped in Ireland. Simply not true, he is exaggerating to fit his narrative, the festival he mentions as "Balt "is bastardisation and exaggeration of the word Beltaine , pre celtic festival of the beginning of the gregorian calender of /summer/May. Terrible and presumably deliberate misunderstanding. It is gaelige. notto be pronounced or confused with any english similar sounding word.
Most of the older mummies had red hair. There was an ancient culture and civilisation that predated the first era Egyptians and even the Sumerians, it was called Tartaria, the cabal has done their best throughout history to erase any evidence of their existence.
Our system in the world a long time now is built on lies but because of the GREAT awakening worldwide about our lying his-story we start to understand more. It is about to search for words origin for example the word extraterrestrial which means extra land and NOT something in the sky above in a fabricated space. That is an eye opener for sure to investigate the words origin as a start. Ignore these who laugh at this discoveries and understand more I use to say and exactly as U say as well it’s about to hide the real world by the globalists/luciferians and make their own Artificial one which they control completely in their Matrix=masonic trix. If U want U can tell me more about this ancient Tartaria because I know about these extra land beyond which the cabal’s members desperate have try to hide for the public and that is why they have controlled our realm so long time with their sun-worship agenda and more sad to say. The real bible doesn’t have 66 books no there are so much more books in the REAL ancient one than in these jesuit corrupt lying controlled script-ures. They removed Enoch’s book so they could hide our real realm and that is why that book is banned from the religious leaders worldwide, because religion is brainwash for control by the cabal in conquer and divide as we have understand who are realistic when we look at the religious system in our world now. Well… There are more to it but it is very interesting indeed… 🤔

Of note - I am of Gaelic/Celtic descent and can trace my ancestry through Scotland, the Hebrides, and Ireland. I have had my DNA extensively tested and can confirm that prior to my ancestors arrival in Hebrides, my paternal line traveled through the middle east and then on to Norway. We really are all one people, if you go back far enough. Enjoyed this vid - thanks for featuring my culture - and much love!
@@vipr1142 While sourced in mythology, the notion that individuals from the Middle East migrated through the north (including my direct ancestors through the Hebrides, Scotland and Ireland) is anchored by solid genetic science. Much love!
@@make.and.believe No they didnt. Might have shared really old ancestors like the Yamnaya, but that Middle Easterners would have gone to Ireland is foolish Much love!
@@vipr1142 what a weird thing to argue about. Perhaps you didn't read or comprehend what I wrote. I've extensively had my DNA tested an it's conclusive, my ancestors were absolutely 100% from the middle east, before they migrated through the northern reaches (specifically Norway) and then settled for a long time in the Hebrides - I even know which small island in the Hebrides they settled on. Then they moved through Scotland and into Ireland, before coming across the pond to America. Even in America we continued to migrate all the way west (I'm in California presently). This isn't speculation, it's my ancestral lineage (paternal specifically) traced through documented records and backed up by DNA evidence. I honestly find it weird that you (or anyone for that matter) would find this strange in the slightest. Humans are a quite migratory species, and we always have been. Anyway, I'm not really here to argue, just thought I would share my own personal evidence that supported this videos thesis. Have a nice evening.
Intregued and mystified as I am, I am getting frustrated with the inconsistant change of info given here. EX: at 2:52 it sais that Egyptian princess Scotia was buried in Scotia's Glen (south western Ireland) and that Scotland was named after her... ok? Not gonna divulge anymore? Were we talking about Ireland or Scotland? What was the relation here? Why was Scotland named after her when she died in southwest Ireland? Then they just move on with a change of subject... At 3:20 he sais "in an ancient text written by an Egyptian..." & they literally start showing you Greek alphabetic text... He also does this at 7:26 he starts saying how these creatures came from Northern Africa, & then he switches up and references an example to Greece... well was it North Africa or Greece? I find the music a very enchanting filler that carries you through the odd inconsistencies of the stories here. I could go on with examples. Don't get me wrong I believe there is something going on here, I have studied Gaelic, and it is unlike any other European languege, it sounds middle eastern at times, also the pentacle found in the middle east really is a celtic knot, so yes I do believe there was some kind of connection or interaction here. I'm just getting frustrated with all the holes in their delivery here.
My dutch mother thinks has celtic origins she loves it and she married my maroccan father .... somehow attraction but now i know why she was just picking her own people.
The "upright position" only came in at the turn of the last century when Ireland was trying to develop its own culture, so instead of the free form Sean-nos (old way) of dancing where arms, upper body and legs were moving, only the legs were moving. So sorry, no. Its nothing related to Dabke dancing. Only an attempt at creating a cultural identity.
The causeway is basalt formation and not that gigantic. Would be like tiny fairy steps to a real giant. Don't forget us Irish tell tall tales during long nights of winters and embellish/exaggerate to keep things interesting and exciting. Eg..the cat sat on the mat. Irish version? ..A large green eyed persian cat with the softest fur of white you could imagine..didn't she lay down there on the rug before the fire to contemplate life before we settled in for the night. See? Keep the pinch of salt handy around story tellers. We tell the truth but expand on it.
Another Masterpiece WELL DONE team. “Hi five” That eclipse immediately before the credits looks amazing. Another all around great video. When i see this channel in my feed, it’s always my first watched video. KudoS
If you can, please do a video on Southern Italians, not just Sicily, but places like Accettura, which is in the deep south of Italy. I'm half Southern Italian and Greek on my father's side, and I've researched that Arabs, North Africans were in that part of Italy. Thanks much.
Another posible reason for this is the theory posted by Michael Tsarion in his books The Irish Origins of Civilization. If I remember correctly he postulates an original migration from west to east of the original settlers of Ireland the ones that were later remember in folklore as the Tuatha de Danna. He says that the TdD migrated to the Erupean mayland from Ireland to avoid a series of cataclysm like floods and earthquakes. There, for the next few hundreds or thousands of years, they spread both themselves and their idiology and mythological motifs throughout Europe, some parts of north Africa (Egypt) and the Middle East. They maybe why some of the motifs like astrotheology, a solar hero, a dying sun god, the number twelve, lions, goats, tree worship, a world tree(polar axis?), a tree of knowledge and the serpent (draco constellation?) are found throughout this areas. That it was later that their descendants started to move from east to west, some of them in an attempt to return to their ancestral land of Ireland.
@@vgernyc I think he mention a group of people called the Milesians that I think were in what is now called Spain but it went by another name. They were there before they invaded and tried to conquer Ireland from the TdD's descendants that remain in the isle and keeps their history and idiologies mostly intact but the exact details excapes me. Mostly he talks about the connection between Ireland, the TdD and the druids with Egyptian (Amenist) theology, history and culture. He also talks about the rouge pharaoh Akhenaten, the one that f'd up Egypt's theology whit his own (Atonist) theology and his connection to the Hiksos dynasty, their connection to Judaism and druidism and how he's follower/descendants are the ones that finally "got rid" of the TdD in Ireland and throughout Europe.
@@vgernyc Think of the name Galicia/Gaelic. There's a myth in Galicia that their King, Brogan (Irish name) sailed to a green island in the north we know as Ireland. The celts of Spain and Britain are all the same haplogroup, too.
The Phoenicians had blue eyes and red hair. That is why the Greeks named them the 'red ones' (Phoenichi) not because of the red dye produced by the Murex mollusk when it was ground down. The Maori and Aborigines speak about the Phoenicians living among them. Many artefacts including the Swastika attributed to the Phoenicians have been found in South and North American archaeological digs. The Vikings' Longboats are copies of Phoenician boats.
It’s both. Blonde, red or brown/black hair, painted their skin red with ochre and grease to protect from the sun. Made reddish purple dye from the mollusks, red striped sails, etc. Also Phoenician was more of a slang term
You sound no different then an Afrocentric who claim Egyptian are ancient Sub-Saharan because of the reference of the black land. Referring to the fertile black soil. You are practicing confirmation basi.. fo off of facts like DNA. And tangible proof. In this case you are correct but not using the correct logic. You are using the logic of a basic thinker. Be better.
@@nocarrotjuststick3375 The Maoris & Aborigines of Australia, also said the Phoenicians had 'red hair'. The Phoenicians' purple dye, 'Tyrrian red' (after their city of Tyr), is a well-known fact and the only one that is ever mentioned. The Henna, red clay pack is not something that is solely Phoenician. Many cultures use it.
@@nocarrotjuststick3375 Nobody knows what the Phoenicians were really called. Phoenician is the moniker that the Greeks gave them for being red-haired! N.B. the Prophet Mohammad had red hair and blue eyes (so it could be a recessive gene popping up). Lebanon was heavily forested so protecting themselves with mud was not necessary. Their country ran along the Mediterranean on the western side and protected by mountains on the eastern side (snow covered in winter). So no mud packs were necessary. Warm clothing was more appropriate. Have a nice day.
This makes perfect sense to me, the north of Africa is not far from Spain, then Spanish have gone to Ireland from their country, it makes sense that the Irish could be descendants from the so called chosen people of god, I think its possible people originated from here or at least one lot of people. I've known about the language similarities for some time.
2:20 - Considering the amber road was active from scandinavia to egypt in the bronze age its not exactly far fetched that beads found their way through intermediaries from egypt to ireland. Considering the active tin trade in southern england it makes it even more likely. On a sidenote, the Welsh were reported to be darker skinned and darker haired than the rest of the continent by the early Roman sources, guessing that they had come from Iberia. The previously mentioned tin trade comes to mind.
Yes, and Barbara Apes found at Emhain Macha in Armagh, coins from Afghanistan at Uisneach/County Meath, a pharaoh (Menes) buried in Knockmany & an Egyptian princess, Scotia, buried in Kerry.
The iberians were redheads. The galician (redheads, I am one of them) king was "the father of the Irish race'. Give me a break, stop believing that all Spaniards are dark.
Yesterday I dreamed of seeing a great lion with a sickly appearance, with a patchy coat, and he was lethargic. He was standing in the distance and stared at me awhile. I wanted to help him but I knew that I need not try. After a bit he turned his back to me and walked to an ancient tree covered in vines. He put his paws up to the tree and began to climb to a limb. He stood there on the limb high up the tree and was looking at me again and he yawned greatly and licked his lips. I watched him as he sat on the limb quietly. I felt it was time to leave and turned away and when I looked back he was resting on the limb with his head up in the breeze. And that was the last I remember of him when I woke. I lay there with my eyes closed and my dream continued. I could still see the ancient tree but the great lion was gone. I felt that he found his Tree of Life. I look forward to seeing him again where I will also enter the Great Sanctuary hidden here on Earth, the Garden of Eden. For me there is no doubt.
That's gnarly. My grandma she was Black Irish, a white/light tan girl with long dark hair and dark colored eyes.

A lot of people invaded Ireland 🇮🇪 Vikings were the most influential besides the British (specifically the English) But then you’d find the Spanish French & probably Portugal were all peoples and nationalities that shipped west to Ireland 🇮🇪
One additional thought to support your idea. St Patrick supposedly drove all the snakes out of Ireland which is a metaphor for the removal of the Serpents that were the priestly class of Ba al or Bel. The Biblical Tribe of Dan used a snake as their symbol and of course in Ireland we have Danu and the Tuatha De Danann. In the middle east they referred on occasion to Giants as Tutannu or Titans in the Greek and Roman versions. Seems to line up mythological, historically, and linguistically. Then if you go back to Sunmerian text you get the Supreme Leader as Anu whose name is encased in these terms as well as in Uranus as an example. There is a common thread that was disheveled during the Tower of Babel incident and we are having to reverse engineer with what info we have.
@@little_wonderer9290 the Túatha Dé Danann were not serpents. If anything, religiously they were portrayed as giants, and then later as the Aos Sí (the fairies). Source: Irish, and a worshipper of the Túatha Dé Dannan
@@roxxybabee The snakes were the Druids, corrupt and way too powerful, like the Filí who came after them right up to the Renaissance had as much power as Chieftains, that type of power back then was open to high corruption.
Perhaps you start at chapter two. The communities that lived in northern Scotland, including Orkney, Scottish Western Islands and Ireland, suddenly disappeared. Shortly thereafter stone circles appear in Northern Sudan and ancient Egyptian mummies are blue eyed and ginger/blond haired. Did their descendants then return to their ancestral homes in Ireland and Scotland? Are you joining in the middle of the story? There is a link to ancient mummies found in China too - what were the people of Scotland and Ireland looking for?

My mother inherited a braid of hair that is blond and has glass, gold and shell beads woven in. When she got it, it was being kept folded in a piece of very old Irish linen which was in turn kept in a solid silver (about 88% silver with other metals) box and lid with Celtic knotwork chased into it. Mom told me that it had been handed down from mother to daughter for hundreds of years and had come from a female ancestor who had been sacrificed. I had it checked out. An antique appraiser told me that the silver box is about three hundred and fifty years old. A university near me tested the linen and that was radio carbon dated as between 1900 and 2200 years old. The braid of hair was radio carbon dated at between 3100 and 3500 years old. I took it to another lab for dna analysis. This is not a normal commercial dna test. This was done by a lab that normally does forensic dna testing for law enforcement but also will do almost any other kind of dna test for a fee. They took a small sample of the hair and a similar sample of my hair. The person the hair comes from shares the same female line haplogroup as I have and is not excluded as my female line ancestor. Going back that far it is impossible to perform an accurate maternity test but the interesting thing is that there are only an estimated 3000 to 4500 people alive today who belong to that haplogroup and most live in Ireland. My grandmother's mother was born in Ireland as was her mother and her mother going back generations. So of course now I have more questions than answers. One thing is for sure. I have likely the oldest family heirloom passed down from one generation to the next in an unbroken chain that anyone has. An anthropologist from another university that I took it to looked at it and says it is likely ancient Celtic in origin and she said (without knowing any of the back story) that she believed it to be between 3000 and 4000 years old based on the style of the braid and the beadwork and demanded that I tell her where I got it and she thought it was priceless. It is priceless to me. The braid is about 31 inches long but very frayed at both ends. It is about an inch and a half wide and about 7/8 of an inch thick. There are approximately 21,000 strands of hair in each of the three braided locks. They are light blond in color. The gold beads are about 21kt which I have been told is consistent with some ancient gold jewelry from the middle east. The glass beads are nearly identical with those common to Rome circa 100 A.D. to 400 A.D. and the shell beads radio carbon dated to 1150-1400 B.C. and are of a species of snail from the Eastern Mediterranean. To my knowledge I am the only male to have owned this braid. According to my mother it was supposed to have been given to a female descendant but none were interested in having it. So I am at the moment just a custodian until a female descendant shows interest. I'm not much of a believer of paranormal things but my sister and female cousins are seriously creeped out by it. My cousin held it in her hand for about three seconds, dropped it and ran from the room. She won't enter any room where it is kept. Before I took it to all the experts I was convinced it was just a much more recent Victorian era mourning artifact. It was common practice of the Victorian age to keep locks of hair from a deceased relative as a keepsake and often they were braided into jewelry or other decorative items. But the experts are all quite adamant that it is not of that category.
This brought tingles to my skin and tears to my eyes. Thank you for your care and research! Perhaps we are related, Irish descent (like plenty of persons). One sister has begun with basic DNA. Your pursuit inspires me to follow up for my being and (blond) offspring. Thank you again for your inspiration along with this YT presentation!
Another excellent episode, thank-you. This is now more personal to me as my fathers people came to the country we have lived in for some few centuries now from a place in Northern Ireland called Ulster Plantation. At the time of their leaving Ireland they were principally Scots living on land granted to them in Ireland. Unfortunately, or fortunately for them they had backed the crown in the English Civil War, which led to them being dispossessed from lands in Ireland to come to a new land. It was said by some that Fomorians had come from the area of Greece, where they had at one time been slaves. I enjoy your content very much, and again thank-you.
The Ulster Plantation was an ethnic-cleansing event whereby the British forcibly "dispossessed" the native Irish of their land and "granted" it to their Protestant soldier/mercenaries in lieu of payment. Resentment has lasted centuries. Is it so difficult to understand why?
If anyone is interested in the Irish language (Gaelige) without learning it, Manchan Magan has some fantastic books such as '32 words for field' outlining how incredibly descriptive and poetic it is.
yes! he is brilliant, '32 words for field' and 'listen to the land speak' are wonderful books. :) he also does an irish word of the day on his instagram.
Those of European descent and in the Middle East are far more closely connected than we realise! In my DNA test I had a good echo of Middle Eastern DNA From a Distant past.
What a great documentary. Loved it and so fascinating. I love the unknown history exactly what this is about, the missing pieces of humanity or better siad the unspoken history. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼❤❤❤
Your documentary holds numerous mistakes and inaccuracies, which is understandable since one needs to be fluent in the Irish language to really understand our culture. Foreigners tend to become fascinated by us and drape us in their own ideas, which have nothing to do with us. Edit; Also, we are a seafaring people who travelled all over the world, there is no great mystery about the fact that we inherited some DNA from other countries and cultures.
The only foreigners on the land of Ireland are what is now the Irish people. Compare the age of the rest of the world’s proven archaeological records to yours. Your a young race and you are not an indigenous one as genetic research has proven. So you are the foreigner and there is no proof of your great seafaring race found anywhere else in the world outside of a relatively small area. Meanwhile there are multiple proofs and theories showing older civilizations were seafaring nations exploring and conquering uncivilized.These aren’t just foreigners being fascinated by your culture they are showing you that you didn’t develop in a vacuum and where you came from. If that hurts your apparent fragile nationalism, get over yourself. Because science isn’t here to stoke your ego it’s here to find the truth based on facts. Which are constantly reviewed and attacked by peers for intellectual eternity. Also the research on your DNA isn’t some it’s the majority of you as a nationality. Perhaps you should look into the mathematical probability of just a few compared to how many truly old Irish families with that trait shows it. Now I’m just an old guy who spent to much time in school for far to many decades and my ignorance is quite profound. However, I truly hope my rebuttal to your statements gets the fires of your intellectual anger going. Or for that matter anyone else’s because that’s what got me going to prove others wrong and me right. Only to find there is more to knowing the truth than what we are told before you walk out the door to find it for yourself and frankly I’m still looking, good luck on your search and proofs of your theories.

When my mother-in-law first met my parents (who came to the states in1958) said "oh, I am part Irish, mostly Italian through" my dad turned and said "oh, black Irish, of course". He wasn't being demeaning in anyway, he meant olive toned skin, verses the pasty white typical Irish. He said folklore tells the tales and sad to say, most don't tell the stories anymore.
I heard of the black Irish too from my Irish family. They were a different race of Irish that were olived skinned with dark hair. The other Irish are pale skinned with red hair. My family descended from the black Irish..
Why would he say that, when you have an Italian there? "Black Irish" - thats a Yankee thing, a Know Nothing thing. Its the British who are Black - they were colonised by Middle Eastern farmers.

Heckuva lot of "well, isn't this interesting" and "how about this coincidence", but very little, if any, modern scientific backing. There was trade between Europe & the Middle East, so some items being found in Ireland could be expected. The linguistic similarities aren't backed by modern studies & the Celt language is entrenched thoroughly in Indo-European. Giants are found in mythologies worldwide. A colony or settlements would leave a larger linguistic, genetic, & cultural footprint that could actually be traced back to its origin. I guess a fun supposition for believers in Atlantis & Nephilim.

I had my dad do a DNA test for genealogists in New Mexico, USA. My family descend from the Conquistadors that came to New Mexico from Spain and Iberia. My grandfather was blond and blue eyes, his brother had red hair and blue eyes. This is not unusual in the Spanish people of NM. Red heads pop up all the time. What was unusual is that my father's DNA was 33% British Isles. We were able to view a map with other people with the same haplogroup. He matched a lot of people from County Cork, Ireland. My family has been in NM over 500 years. Our haplogroup is JM172, Jewish. I keep asking these genealogist and historians where this British Isles DNA comes from because my father's family is well documented way back into the 1500's. This video really made me think about other ways we could have so much Irish DNA.
My maternal grandfather was born in Ireland. He often talked about the eastern Mediterranean influences on the Irish world. The Laudabiliter issued in 1155 basically gave England the authority to occupy, govern and subdue Ireland and its own unique customs. History reveals that those ways were significantly different.

The writing on the gravestones was this beautiful script to me it looked like Arabic or something but it was actually Gaelic. I definitely have Irish ancestors as well and on that same trip a man gave me a four-leaf clover that he had been carrying in his wallet since 1970s I believe he was Irish as well.
Brilliant video, Conor MacDari has a book Irish wisdom preserved in the pyramids, very complimentary to this topic. Irish Moroccan here so I need no convincing of this 😊
Finding this amusingly interesting, my great grandfather who was born in Ireland, always said we originated from the black Irish, due to some of the family's typically Mediterranean appearance. The rest of us were all pale, red hair & green eyes, yet I always attributed the throw back in looks to his grandmother who was Eastern European, likely a Jewish gypsy who had fled persecution during conflict. Although Christian the women of my family always held some pretty alternative beliefs, more akin to Buddhist, yet all wore the star as a family tradition. My mother wears hers to this day! So basically we are all just travellers passing through this life & all sons & daughters of refugees, aye makes sense!
@alan dickson which makes “racism” null and void if everyone realised they were mixed race; but they’re too ignorant to see/recognise or even consider one’s own roots!
Mediterraneans are not black ,there is no black irish but the inhabitants of these coastal lands in ancient times came from middle east or mixed but black ! lol no
You can't be a Christian and Buddhist at the same time. You have to pick a side. "You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons too; you cannot have a part in both the Lord’s table and the table of demons." -- 1 Corinthians 10:21

What most people do not realize is the Irish have a strong Middle Eastern tie. My line, my literal last name, is translated to mean the brown Warrior. There was a high population of Portuguese and Syrian immigration Ireland. The Irish, are known as Europe's appendix, as they have retained knowledge from pre-written history through oral tradition and was one of the first ethno groups to start practicing the written word due to the Middle Eastern influence. In particular Irish lineage lines you will find many Middle Eastern characteristics which is in my family. It's very fascinating and it is so nice to see a video that touches upon this.
Lots of books were destroyed by the British when they invaded. A professor from Trinity college dublin visiting england in the 1890s was asked by a Lord he was visiting to examine a book that the Lord thought might be egyptian. He said it was in his family for generations but he didn't know where it came from. The professor looked at the book and i quote from his diary." I turned pale and then feared the Lord saw this, for if he knew he had a book of ancient Irish laws(brehon laws) he would have surely throw it in the fire" so he told him he didnt know but could he take it back to ireland to study. The lord agreed and needless to say he never got it back. Still can be seen in trinity college. Can you imagine what was destroyed when they invaded. We never will know the full extent. But interesting he taught it looked egyptian.
Fairytales.
Brehon Law doesn't even pre-date Christianity let alone the pyramids of Egypt, which is the only reason anyone ever mentions Egypt.

This is why materials as this are frequently classified as "Ephemera." As a child I inherited my grandmother's 700 volume library. I had a pile beside my bed to throw at my younger brother when he bothered me. When I went off to college my sister boxed them up and announced to my mother she saw no reason why I would ever want old books anyway. My father died shortly after my parents 50th Anniversary, I helped my mother clear the house in preparation to sell it. It was then, decades later, I discovered he had preserved and protected them for me. Many turned out be early commercial publications of the likes of Greyfriar's Bobby and my Grandmother's correspondence with the author. One was a water damaged copy of Seven Pillars of Wisdom by T.E. Lawrence that had intrigued me in my early teen years. It had eventually lead me to spend almost 6 months travelling Iraq, Syria Jordan and Palestine with a map I'd copied from it. At one time I was an Archives and Special Collections Librarian and I never got over my veneration of old books. So very much is lost, because no one appreciates its potential.
So very cool!!

There are specific scary stories Iraqi grandmas tell about the 'sluagh' which I know is part of Gaelic folklore. Some of these stories are passed down through generations and predate the internet. My grandmother heard it from her grandmother and both women lived most of their lives in a village near the marshes. I have also noticed other ties to Irish folklore specifically. I have always felt connected to Celtic traditions too (since I was a kid) and have never really understood why or where it came from.
The other way around.
Anything that is folklore predates the internet ahhahahah WWII predates the internet.
Not “predates the internet”! Ancient! 🤣💀
its indoeuropean not celtic. The indoeuropean white persians brought those stories to you. We germans, the english and even the indians have the same myths
Fact our word "druid" comes from sandkrit "driú vid". "Vid" meaning knowledge. "Vid" is the same root work for the vedas, the hindu texts. The druids were the priestly knowledgable class
I think the fact that we're always so mystified about our ancestors achievements displays our inability to understand that they were far more sophisticated than we've been led to believe.
Who's led you to believe that?
Today, we are led to assume that anything older than our own culture must necessarily be more primitive. This is a destructive logical fallacy that follows a long tradition of erasing history. My ancestors were Vikings, and Christianity appropriated, absorbed or destroyed almost all traces of my culture's heritage.
They were just like us, only less well educated in the 'modern' sciences.

I’m from Iran. Born and raised. I look like a typical Persian, white skin, almond brown eyes, dark brown hair. When I took a DNA test for my tribal ancestry, my highest genetics match was to Northern Ireland, followed by Southern Ireland and then to Caucasians of Afghanistan ( by a large margin). I was shocked. I had plenty of Northern Europe in the mix.
Years later, I had a child with an English man and my son was born w red hair. A very Irish thing. To have a red hair baby, one must be a recessive. I know of no one w red hair in my family.
Anyhow, the whole thing is very mysterious.
Oh my god - I just made a comment (before I saw yours!) That I'm from Ireland and a large part of my DNA test came back Iranian😱 this is crazy!
Norma Jeane wow!
Norma Jeane what’s funny is that my husband was married to a full Irish woman and had 3 children. She was an Irish person w a redhead mother and 2 redhead siblings. None of my husband’s 3 children w her have red hair! His child w mine does. Genetics is a weird thing.
Norma Jeane in Iran, we always called our heritage as true Arians and that’s what Iran means. I had heard similar things about the name of Ireland.. I wonder if iranians and Irish are related and seperated from the original Aryan group that was in Central Asia/north India? Not sure. I know Afghanistan was also called Ariana. That was the original name of Afghanistan. .
That is extremely odd, I'm alot irish-scott-english-german and I have had a lot of people even Americans of African decent say something about my race, my hair is extremely dark my eyes a very light hazel with olive skin and even some Asian traits my eyes are not as round as a anglos and my headshape is more similar to a person from the Mediteranian. I would not look out of place in most of north Africa to Iran to Eurasian countries. I would like to get DNA tested sometime.
I am 2ed gen Irish born in the states on both sides of my family. My husband was German and Dutch. Our son did a DNA test that traced back to the middle east. We were utterly confused and assumed the test was flawed. This video makes SO MUCH sense to me now !!
I am Moroccan amazigh aka berber and my mom looks Irish never noticed it since we are so mixed in my family but when I immigrated to the US I always felt something weird when I looked at poeple from Irish descent it's like they are my family they reminded me of my courageous grand father who lived in the mountains and the beautiful face of my mother and never understood how can my mother family all look Irish and still tell her when I talk to her that she does but she doesn't understand where that part of the world is or look like.

@Michael Sean May I ask, what country you live in? This is ALL so incredibly interesting to me. Our last name is O'Reilly. My father was the name sake of a Irish Catholic priest who stood along side the Irish immigrants (him being one) in the war ( more like street fight) of NY , back when it was New Amsterdam. If you watch the movie "New Amsterdam " with Leonardo DiCaprio, the priest was depicted in that movie. That movie is kinda like the "Titanic". Mostly historically accurate. ......with the exception of the "Rose and Jack" story line........New Amsterdam is a great movie if you can sit threw the 3 1/2 hours. Hahaha.

I am of Irish descent and I always do this. There were about three or four colonizations of Ireland the stories of the fearlaeth and the ferBolga I'm using talk to text and it just won't copy correctly and the tautha du dannin. The melanesians. The giant balllor of bales. The one-eyed for formoan king. Who was a pirate from an island. My grandmother's hair was as black as silt. And so was her daughter's. And the Irish had gypsies too. Though they had a different name. The island was originally uninhabited until the older tribes the formoans came from the middle East. They wared with the children of Danu. Until peace was made through marriage everybody in the world is related to somebody else so the kings of old are the ancestors of the present-day people I am a direct descendant of Cormac McCarthy high King of all of Ireland. And Ballor of Bales. The king of the formoans. The McCarthy's lost the high seat to the O'Neal's. We also sided against Queen Elizabeth and with the Spanish. For some reason I'm thinking 1540 but the Spanish Armada was 1599.and Here's a little bit of information for you. Leprechauns and fairies both exist. Although I've never seen a banshee.
Yes, I met a red haired Irish "Gypsy" and I know that fairies exist, in another realm, not necessarily of the material but could be.... Melanesians you say, they are people like the indigenous from New Caledonia, so that is a long way from Ireland.

8:44 "this is only a theory ..."
As a scientist, I feel compelled to point out a couple of things here...
First of all, a "theory" has greater certitude and is a higher level of organization of information than is a "fact." many facts are required to develop a theory. So the phrase "only a theory" is both nonsensical and grossly misleading.
Secondly, what then follows this misleading phrase is not a theory, it is a hypothesis. Fortunately, the phrase, "this is only a hypothesis..." makes perfect sense.
It is important to contribute to scientific literacy, and we do so when by getting our concepts correct.

When i visited Ireland, i learnt the Irish also historically had a strong oral tradition much like the Middle East and was something that struck as being very similar to the Jewish and Arab cultures. The Irish are naturally very expressive in their words and maintain knowledge of their folklore through poems and songs. This being a tradition continued on from the Gaelic people.
You sir/madam, have absolutely won the internet today with your fantastic UA-cam username. Well played. 10/10
I thought I was the only one who had made this observation, I spent 14yrs going back and forth to Ireland and had the pleasure of growing up around two Irish families in London, the cultures are incredibly similar as you stated, maybe Catholicism had a part to play keeping communities together
Every people group on earth had and some still have strong oral traditions and has nothing to do with arabs or jews, its just basic human behaviour, why not compare it to the ancient Greeks or Persians as the same can be said about them, and arguably they are the source of arab oral traditions.
The Irish are closely related to the Basque's of northern spain
The Basque's being one of if not the most persecuted people in history.
The Basque's not only being the closest mainland relation to the indigenous Irish but are also very closely related to the indigenous peoples of Japan the Ainu.

Back in the day, the sea wasn't a barrier. It was land-travel that was very difficult. The sea was the path of least resistance for people, goods, and ideas. The Romans hated the water. They were a land-centric empire. And this has had a distorting effect on how we look at antiquity.

Spain was Celtic long before Muslim or Roman conquest and has many artifacts from far away places. There is even evidence that there was once a city called Tartessos that mysteriously disappeared from historical sources. Likely Spanish Celts traded with their northern counterparts.

Yes indeed-‘today’s issues seem not so unusual.’ They only seem impossible to understand when looking a history in the flat earth modern day mindset of evolutionary archaeology/biology... As it obscures these extremely close connections we have to the past. Whereas evolutionary biology makes us think we are long separated... But at the same time it also seems kind of ridiculous how we (naturally) will only look back so far, like a few generations in our traceable family tree and then act like that is our origin point. It reminds me of how Hollywood or folklore even, will only look back to a certain (usually) deified person, not continue back further to the origins of the deified person... like all the super hero movies, never explain the source of the source... Like they don’t want to mess up a ‘good’ story with the real story-‘our’ (/‘the’) true/ultimate origin story...

@@MrRugbylane Wrong!!! Ross' hail from the once War Masters of Scotland the Chiefs of the Great Clan Ross the Earls of Ross! And since the 1st Stuart King married as his Second Wife the 1st official Ross the 4th Earl of Ross, Hugh Ross 1st to take on the Surname long before the Advent of Surnames, Daughter a Countess Ross and their 4 Royal Children became the Heirs to the Stuart Kingship or Queenship that one time, the Stuarts did not like having so many cousins that had fallen into commonality, because we had to many children for any amount of titles to keep up with, so all Ross' that could not prove their pedigree by paperwork become MacKenzie's, and for centuries Ross was a protected surname like it was also in the past, and since Britian ruled Ireland, and Ross' many of your actual Gentry Occupiers, no one in Ireland once you had to have surnames could pick Ross! And all those places with Ros or Ross this, are places we named after ourselves during our Occupation, and most Ross' in Ireland are Ross' and not named after where they were born, similar to how the Chief of Ross the 4th Earl of Ross took on the Surname for the Earldom he Ruled, the Earldom of Ross, and since we were the Richest and most Powerful Pedigree, Family, Clan! In the Highlands second only in power to the King who was also our Cousin generally, no one could name themselves Ross in the past either. Not even in England, for long before the Stuarts as Royals we bred with all the other Royals, like the English Crown, French Crown and the Sort! So we named those places after us, and one of us, named himself, after the Earldom and Clan he ruled. However since we are Sycthians which is in Russia, and Rossiia's true name is Rossiia or Rossiya I don't think we are getting the completeness of the Name Ross! Odd the Scoti who where Sycthians would name the Heart and Blood of the Highlands, Ross-shire, since our original Homeland (after Egypt) was later also called Ross, or should I say Ros like we both use to be named... Odd and surely allot more to this story...

On my first visit to Morocco 40 years ago, I was watching four street musicians, two violin players and two percussionists. The rhythms and scales were a bit alien to my ears to start with but the musicianship was superb so I tipped them and hung around a while. I noticed that I coud count in both threes and fours and then one of those cold shivers went down my back as the thought came out of nowhere that if the Irish band The Chieftains were here they would be jamming effortlessly within a couple of minutes with these street performers. The name of one of the percussive instrument was called bendir which was very similar to the Irish bodhran.

In terms of archeology and genetics arguably one of the earliest records of human activity in Ireland was the remnants of a butchered deer bone found in a cave in either Kerry or cork I believe that dates from 30,000 years ago. And is one of the oldest artefacts for human activity in the British isles. And in Irish mythology the coming of people to Ireland is seen in waves and this is reflected through history too. Where we had prehistoric hunter-gatherers, neolithic farmers, and then the bronze age Smith's and craftsmen. And these peoples likely came here through boat or through land bridges just at the end of the last ice age. And in our mythology you have the fomorians, the tuatha de danann, and the Gaels (with the fir bolg shoehorned in as well). We learn a lot of this from the pseudohistorical book of invasions in which the Irish are the descendants of Noah after the flood and eventually they split into three groups the tuatha de dannan, the fir bolg, and Gaels. The fir bolgs go to Greece where they are enslaved and made to carry bags of soil for agriculture (hence fir bolg means men of bags), the tuatha went to the north to 3 cities where they learned magic and sorcery. The Gaels went to Iberia where they learned warfare, crafting, smithing, and how to work the land and one of their soldiers was the Míl Espaine or (the soldier of Spain). First the fir bolg came who where then conquered by the tuatha and their magic, then the Gaels came who conquered the tuatha due to their better mastery of the land. While pseudohistorical the idea of our ancestors coming from Iberia is found not only in Irish texts but also in a few other medieval Christian texts and it is described as the "motherland of all races". But let's go back to the historical people's. You have prehistoric hunter gatherers who were then conquered by neolithic farmers who there then conquered by bronze age Smith's and craftsmen. Now post-glacial we find the emergence of the ancient Version of the Basque language spread throughout Europe going north, followed by Indo-European language spread in the early neolithic times spreading west, followed by the Semitic languages coming up the western coast of Europe. And in fact, the "Celtic language" emerged quite later in Europe. The term Celtic in fact is really only a linguistic term for la guage groups and at best a cultural one too, but it is not a genetic or ethnic term. An interesting features in all of this is the bell-beaker culture which was a style of pottery and arguably people that we think came from Portugal and spread out all over Europe at the time and some of the earliest recorded evidence we have of this comes from Iberia and Portugal. This pottery made its way to Ireland and is believed to have lasted in Ireland for a period of time after the decline of this culture in mainland Europe. And it is widely believed that the Celts came from central Europe. However, this translation is based on a mistake. When the historian Herodotus beloved that the Danube started in the Pyrenees and that the homeland of the Celts was at the sources of the Danube. So later on, scholars in the 19th-20th centuries had better maps and knew that the Danube started in central Europe and so this account of Herodotus was changed to it meaning central Europe, even though everything thing else Herodotus states says the Celts originated in Iberia. So we have archeological evidence stating that there is a great link between Ireland and Iberia, and also written accounts from Ireland and Rome stating yea the Celts came from here. But what about genetics? Well it has been found that in terms of blood groupings and DNA evidence that the Basque peoples, modern day Iberians, and modern day Irish and Scottish people and linked closer to each other than any other peoples in Europe. So we can pretty much say that the ancient Irish came from somewhere in the Iberian peninsula. Moreover due to the Iberian peninsulas close proximity to North Africa and it being on the Mediterranean and that Iberia has one of the highest levels of North African DNA in Europe and can be found all the way back to Carthaginian times if not perhaps before this also. So there is a strong link between Ireland and North Africa. Plus if we go into Christian times in the early centuries in Ireland a lot of the artwork teachings brought to Ireland from missionaries who came from the Mediterranean and Roman Britain settled here and directly had an effect on early Irish-christian culture. However, in terms of bel and ba'al. It's likely that bel wasn't an Irish god and merely a creation of early Irish Christian scholars because they did in fact make up characters and stories. For example, the children of lir is an entirely Christian story. Moreover, his association with the festival of Beltane is an entirely a modern belief as with all Irish festival they used to mark certain dates in the agricultural year. It doesn't mean fire of bel it most likely means bright fire and was used to mark summer and the return of good weather. Moreover, we can tell which gods in Irish mythology were real and which ones were fictional through entomology, archeology, and depiction. For example Lugh is most likely an Irish version of the Indo-European god Lugus as their name is the same and they have similar associations. And moreover lughs depiction Irish mythology is never consistent he is either a great hero, a magical human, a druid, a spirit, and that in the story of the tailteann games is seen to be be victorious over the spirits of the otherworld seemingly implying he's not one. Bel has none of this and just vaguely appears. It's likely that early Christian scholars were aware of this demon in Christian belief and while writing about Ireland's ancient past put him as to highlight Ireland's pagan past with a demon they were familiar with.
This makes a lot of sense and has been spoken of by Robert Sepehr, a superb anthropologist, historian, etc. Absolutely fits for me.

It is important to consider that the size of the population of Ireland post ice age would have been very small. So even a small arrival of new settlers would go on to have a big impact on genetics and also on linguistic development.
Oh my goodness thank you THANK YOU GOD THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS EVER SINCE I SENT YOU THE ARTICLE ON PATREON ABOUT THE SCARAB FOUND ON TARA HILL I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS VIDEO PATIENTLY! GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR RESEARCH AND YOUR TEAM!
Someone found a scarab on Tara? Fascinating.
Would you still have a link or know who wrote the article?
There is an entire intact city sitting under 1600 feet of water off Cubas western coast. Sonar shows temples, pyramids and many other structures. One geologist stated the last time the land was above water was at least 50,000 years ago. Another pushed the date even further back. This area should be the first place looked at, and is not that far from the Bimini Road.
16% of Irish people have the RH- negative blood gene including myself so I would love to see a video on this & where exactly my RH- ancestors came from?
I'm Scotch Irish German decent and A. Indian with RH- also. I don't know about you but it seems in our family has a strong psyche since, the women especially sensitive to sickness and death. Example, my grandmother, the foot of her bed would shake and lift up slam to the floor 3 nights in a row a week before a family member passing. Also a relative of ours was one of the Salam witches burnt at the stake. It would be fascinating to learn more sound proof if there is any
@@arosefortes6507 I come from a family of white whites & psychics. My grandmother read tea leafs & I would dream events & know when close friends are pregnant or about to get pregnant. I sometimes see auras but I must say my biggest gift from the gods is my dreams. Sometimes it’s like I watch a movie before the event happens. My family in the states visit Salem regularly. I have been there myself. I tend to be more drawn druids sites in Ireland where I live, one of my favourite places is newgrange & hill of Tara but I also found The Pipers Stones, such a fascinating place.
@@alisonuibhroin3109 I've always been interested in Ireland and would love to see it someday.
That's what our gift is too! My daughter and I both have vivid dreams about someone that are true without seeing the person, several times we've had the same dreams, also past relatives I'll see in my dreams that they have something to say. I've also had my grandparents come to me in my sleep to say goodbye and one man from the nursing home I worked at that I took care of. All of them were so happy and light in the same way I knew them but more so. Thank you for sharing with me your experience

And to answer that the origin ancient stone I saw as a child around 9 or 10 .. Im not 5 times that .. :) was carved in Ogham ..and 3 gliphs Egyptian .. .I cannot be sure I was but a child but it looked that way. I heard the story of a Wedding from a sea crash on the western coast of an Exotic Princess from where her father was a pharoh.. and she married an Irish High Chieftain and they were in a great battle .. the Queen Scotia faught bravely for her kin then fell and yet they won the battle ..her descendants went on to another land and Formed Scotland in honour of her and her descendants became the Gael... .. anyway that is the story.. from a resident as child below Scotia Glen ... ... later generations formed trading routes and also moved further up the west to Galway to give Grainne Mhaol... or Bald Grainne a female whom became a chieftain 11 Husbands and scoffed at Queen Elizabeth the 1st.. anyway.. North Africa Berber.. Irish.. totally the same go look at Irish Aran sweater and compare to Berber weaves and knots... :)
Amazing. I did not know that.
The Irish are Indo-Europeans, from the Steppes.
They are the whitest people in Europe

One word - TRADE

Case solved.
Never let the truth get in the way of a good yarn
Exactly this. Egyptian beads in an Irish grave from the 1300s completely ignores the presence of the sea king ‘Vikings’ in Ireland in previous centuries too. They had extensive trade networks and arabic coins frequently turn up as grave goods in archeological digs. Not too much of a stretch to apply a rational, logical explanation, surely?
@@_Vikingr This whole subject matter is rife with woo. Not only did ancient people trade possessions, they also traded ideas. I am totally open minded but extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence and the crumbs we’re left with from deep antiquity pose many questions but leave few answers, especially when it comes to the topic of a sophisticated and technologically advanced pre ice age civilisation, giants, ancient aliens etc. There are too many true believers who don’t understand the difference between secondary and primary evidence and so they rely not on first hand investigation but on what they read, which is often based on skewed interpretations of “evidence” that authors twist to support their confirmation biases and beliefs. This is so frustrating because it keeps the truth at a distance. Ego in this area is particularly dangerous - too many middle aged men resolute that their theory is the right one. The truth is that in many cases, they do not know. Hawass may be right, he may be wrong, Hancock has been proved right in America Before but not the Younger Dryas impact hypothesis, Bauval may never be proved right etc.
So nice to encounter a sensible person.

Thanks for this wonderful job of historic insight and paranormal constituants of two very closely related civilizations ... moreover, as an Algerian, I have always found striking similarities between Irish and berber music ( Algerian province of Kabylie ).
Yes we're definitely related.

If you listen, you can hear a distinct Middle Eastern influence in Irish music.
True, I've noticed that before, but never thought much about it.
Yes your right
Phrygian scales have nothing to do with the middle east altough ancient phrygia was located in modern day west turkey.
Celtic music is distinctve in that the beat and order of the notes follow the Sanskrit music still played in India. We know that European languages are Indo European in their roots.
Listen to Canadian singer Loreena McKennet and you will hear the middle Eastern in the Celtic
This is basically what the Oera Linda book says as well about the phoenicain/Gaul connection to Ireland and Britain. The Gauls/Golen were Phoenician priests that came from the Levant or modern Lebanon area.
This is right on! Keep up the excellent research work. This is best place for nonbiased journalism of this nature. Don't allow anything to entice you into changing except in the ways you need to as your methods and confidence expand.

The Irish come from galicia, in Spain. They're redheads. First king "father of the Irish race'" was gallego. The redheaded berbers were the "moors". All the above speak a form of Gaelic. I'm gallega, and dna says I'm part Irish and north african. Yes, redhead, so there was much dna shared there.
Can't be a long term trade hub without marrying people from other cultures, adapting material culture, and adjusting language to facilitate communication.

We can only speculate about how ancient people ended up where they did. We are all children of the first men and women, every single person today has a direct and unbroken decent back to the beginning of people regardless of what they believe they are. And within our DNA we hold a tiny piece of every person who makes up our being!!It's truly amazing!!
I love this channel so much thank you guys for all your hard work.
There was a stone called the Benben stone in the ancient temple of Ra, Heliopolis. I live in Egypt but come from Ireland. I thought of this when I saw this stone, we have a mountain in Ireland called Benbulben and I wondered about that at the time. There are also depictions of Celtic Warriors here. In Ireland a traditional Irish name is Niamh (pronounced Neeve), here in Egypt Neeven is a popular name. I wondered about that too. Also the name Norah which is common here and in Ireland.
The Scots origin was half Egyptian and half Greek the subject has been well covered on U TUBE. The Druids who are the Druze of today are descendants of Ishmael , mentioned in the bible. He was of mixed blood a Hebrew and Egyptian. ?

I wonder if this could explain Melungeons of the Appalachian Mts- my family is melungeon characterized most notably by the dark/black curly thick hair and the deeper olive /darker skintones ofte There are a lot of theories about where these traits come from or whether melungeons exist at all. However after doing a recent DNA i was surpised to find out i waz 75% irsh/scotch 10% Sub sahara African and 15% eastern european. The Appalachians were notably settled by the scotch and irish.
This is fascinating
I watched a history of “gypsies”,of whom some settled in USA. And wondered if melungeons have any DNA testing relating to gypsies. Never even thought about this thread! Your mention of Eastern European made me think gypsies. Their language, though, is related to Indian dialects. So complex!
It doesn’t. “Melungeons” were invented to cover for people who were mixed race with Black ancestry.
Beware the sub Saharan markers. I've seen evidence of them falsifying this result for people of European descent. Of course it could be true, idk you, I know if I had it in my results it would be fraudulent though.

In the 1970s, when we were still in high school, an Irish correspondent told a friend that the Irish were or considered themselves the Arabs of the north.
with regard to the structure of Richat, if you do further research you will find similar structures in the Saharan south of Algeria.

But the Arabs only settled North Africa in the 7th century AD. The connection of the Irish and the Middle East is supposed to go way back in history. At least that's what some people claim.
@@mr.dorianblackwell …. There is no dna connection special to the Irish from the Middle East .
The nearest thing to it is the Early European Farmer (Neolithic) dna from Anatolia. However this is found too in all Europeans … greater in the Mediterranean region and to a much lesser extent in Northern Europe.
In fact the Irish are quite low in this genetic make up.
I believe this video and this channel in general to be purposely extremely misleading.
@@raffles7556 Yes, you're probably right. And if their is a genetical connection, it's between all European people and the Near East/Middle East. Funny how some people think the Arabs were an important source of genetics, when they only settled these parts in the 7th century during the Islamic conquests. There were other people in the Middle East and Northern Africa who don't exist anymore. Maybe only as assimilated into other nations. I wrote about it in another comment, how the Egytians of today have nothing to do with the Egytians of ancient times. Weird, isn't it? About the channel itself, I haven't seen enough of the other videos to have a full picture. But from what I've seen these are actually just theories and not factual history. Especially when you look at those mythical stories.
Stop trying to destroy the legitimate history of the Gaels
terrible misunderstanding that the deity Baal is worshipped in Ireland. Simply not true, he is exaggerating to fit his narrative, the festival he mentions as "Balt "is bastardisation and exaggeration of the word Beltaine , pre celtic festival of the beginning of the gregorian calender of /summer/May. Terrible and presumably deliberate misunderstanding. It is gaelige. notto be pronounced or confused with any english similar sounding word.

Most of the older mummies had red hair. There was an ancient culture and civilisation that predated the first era Egyptians and even the Sumerians, it was called Tartaria, the cabal has done their best throughout history to erase any evidence of their existence.

Our system in the world a long time now is built on lies but because of the GREAT awakening worldwide about our lying his-story we start to understand more.
It is about to search for words origin for example the word extraterrestrial which means extra land and NOT something in the sky above in a fabricated space.
That is an eye opener for sure to investigate the words origin as a start.
Ignore these who laugh at this discoveries and understand more I use to say and exactly as U say as well it’s about to hide the real world by the globalists/luciferians and make their own Artificial one which they control completely in their Matrix=masonic trix.
If U want U can tell me more about this ancient Tartaria because I know about these extra land beyond which the cabal’s members desperate have try to hide for the public and that is why they have controlled our realm so long time with their sun-worship agenda and more sad to say.
The real bible doesn’t have 66 books no there are so much more books in the REAL ancient one than in these jesuit corrupt lying controlled script-ures.
They removed Enoch’s book so they could hide our real realm and that is why that book is banned from the religious leaders worldwide, because religion is brainwash for control by the cabal in conquer and divide as we have understand who are realistic when we look at the religious system in our world now.
Well… There are more to it but it is very interesting indeed… 🤔

Of note - I am of Gaelic/Celtic descent and can trace my ancestry through Scotland, the Hebrides, and Ireland. I have had my DNA extensively tested and can confirm that prior to my ancestors arrival in Hebrides, my paternal line traveled through the middle east and then on to Norway.
We really are all one people, if you go back far enough.
Enjoyed this vid - thanks for featuring my culture - and much love!
This is mythology
@@vipr1142 While sourced in mythology, the notion that individuals from the Middle East migrated through the north (including my direct ancestors through the Hebrides, Scotland and Ireland) is anchored by solid genetic science. Much love!
@@make.and.believe No they didnt.
Might have shared really old ancestors like the Yamnaya, but that Middle Easterners would have gone to Ireland is foolish
Much love!
@@vipr1142 what a weird thing to argue about.
Perhaps you didn't read or comprehend what I wrote.
I've extensively had my DNA tested an it's conclusive, my ancestors were absolutely 100% from the middle east, before they migrated through the northern reaches (specifically Norway) and then settled for a long time in the Hebrides - I even know which small island in the Hebrides they settled on. Then they moved through Scotland and into Ireland, before coming across the pond to America. Even in America we continued to migrate all the way west (I'm in California presently).
This isn't speculation, it's my ancestral lineage (paternal specifically) traced through documented records and backed up by DNA evidence.
I honestly find it weird that you (or anyone for that matter) would find this strange in the slightest. Humans are a quite migratory species, and we always have been.
Anyway, I'm not really here to argue, just thought I would share my own personal evidence that supported this videos thesis. Have a nice evening.
@@make.and.believe It's so long time ago, it doesn't matter.
You dont look like them, and they dont like you because you dont share their religion
Intregued and mystified as I am, I am getting frustrated with the inconsistant change of info given here.
EX: at 2:52 it sais that Egyptian princess Scotia was buried in Scotia's Glen (south western Ireland) and that Scotland was named after her... ok? Not gonna divulge anymore? Were we talking about Ireland or Scotland? What was the relation here? Why was Scotland named after her when she died in southwest Ireland? Then they just move on with a change of subject...
At 3:20 he sais "in an ancient text written by an Egyptian..." & they literally start showing you Greek alphabetic text...
He also does this at 7:26 he starts saying how these creatures came from Northern Africa, & then he switches up and references an example to Greece... well was it North Africa or Greece? I find the music a very enchanting filler that carries you through the odd inconsistencies of the stories here.
I could go on with examples.
Don't get me wrong I believe there is something going on here, I have studied Gaelic, and it is unlike any other European languege, it sounds middle eastern at times, also the pentacle found in the middle east really is a celtic knot, so yes I do believe there was some kind of connection or interaction here. I'm just getting frustrated with all the holes in their delivery here.
My Lebanese husband always commented how Irish dancing is very similar to the Lebanese Dabke dancing. Very upright position of the upper body.
My dutch mother thinks has celtic origins she loves it and she married my maroccan father .... somehow attraction but now i know why she was just picking her own people.
A Palestinian told me the same thing, that their dance is strongly similar to Irish
The "upright position" only came in at the turn of the last century when Ireland was trying to develop its own culture, so instead of the free form Sean-nos (old way) of dancing where arms, upper body and legs were moving, only the legs were moving. So sorry, no. Its nothing related to Dabke dancing. Only an attempt at creating a cultural identity.
Wow amazing!! It makes so much sense, the red headed giants like Kandahar and Irish giant folklore about the causeway. 🤯
Exactly luv!
The causeway is basalt formation and not that gigantic. Would be like tiny fairy steps to a real giant. Don't forget us Irish tell tall tales during long nights of winters and embellish/exaggerate to keep things interesting and exciting. Eg..the cat sat on the mat. Irish version? ..A large green eyed persian cat with the softest fur of white you could imagine..didn't she lay down there on the rug before the fire to contemplate life before we settled in for the night. See? Keep the pinch of salt handy around story tellers. We tell the truth but expand on it.

If you can, please do a video on Southern Italians, not just Sicily, but places like Accettura, which is in the deep south of Italy. I'm half Southern Italian and Greek on my father's side, and I've researched that Arabs, North Africans were in that part of Italy. Thanks much.
Trapani is an Arabic italian city.
Another posible reason for this is the theory posted by Michael Tsarion in his books The Irish Origins of Civilization. If I remember correctly he postulates an original migration from west to east of the original settlers of Ireland the ones that were later remember in folklore as the Tuatha de Danna. He says that the TdD migrated to the Erupean mayland from Ireland to avoid a series of cataclysm like floods and earthquakes. There, for the next few hundreds or thousands of years, they spread both themselves and their idiology and mythological motifs throughout Europe, some parts of north Africa (Egypt) and the Middle East. They maybe why some of the motifs like astrotheology, a solar hero, a dying sun god, the number twelve, lions, goats, tree worship, a world tree(polar axis?), a tree of knowledge and the serpent (draco constellation?) are found throughout this areas. That it was later that their descendants started to move from east to west, some of them in an attempt to return to their ancestral land of Ireland.
Does he mention Spain in his books? I’ve read Spain was Celtic in preRoman times.
@@vgernyc I think he mention a group of people called the Milesians that I think were in what is now called Spain but it went by another name. They were there before they invaded and tried to conquer Ireland from the TdD's descendants that remain in the isle and keeps their history and idiologies mostly intact but the exact details excapes me.
Mostly he talks about the connection between Ireland, the TdD and the druids with Egyptian (Amenist) theology, history and culture. He also talks about the rouge pharaoh Akhenaten, the one that f'd up Egypt's theology whit his own (Atonist) theology and his connection to the Hiksos dynasty, their connection to Judaism and druidism and how he's follower/descendants are the ones that finally "got rid" of the TdD in Ireland and throughout Europe.
@@vgernyc Think of the name Galicia/Gaelic. There's a myth in Galicia that their King, Brogan (Irish name) sailed to a green island in the north we know as Ireland. The celts of Spain and Britain are all the same haplogroup, too.

The Phoenicians had blue eyes and red hair. That is why the Greeks named them the 'red ones' (Phoenichi) not because of the red dye produced by the Murex mollusk when it was ground down. The Maori and Aborigines speak about the Phoenicians living among them. Many artefacts including the Swastika attributed to the Phoenicians have been found in South and North American archaeological digs. The Vikings' Longboats are copies of Phoenician boats.
It’s both. Blonde, red or brown/black hair, painted their skin red with ochre and grease to protect from the sun. Made reddish purple dye from the mollusks, red striped sails, etc. Also Phoenician was more of a slang term

The Henna, red clay pack is not something that is solely Phoenician. Many cultures use it.
@@nocarrotjuststick3375 Nobody knows what the Phoenicians were really called. Phoenician is the moniker that the Greeks gave them for being red-haired! N.B. the Prophet Mohammad had red hair and blue eyes (so it could be a recessive gene popping up). Lebanon was heavily forested so protecting themselves with mud was not necessary. Their country ran along the Mediterranean on the western side and protected by mountains on the eastern side (snow covered in winter). So no mud packs were necessary. Warm clothing was more appropriate.

2:20 - Considering the amber road was active from scandinavia to egypt in the bronze age its not exactly far fetched that beads found their way through intermediaries from egypt to ireland. Considering the active tin trade in southern england it makes it even more likely.

Yesterday I dreamed of seeing a great lion with a sickly appearance, with a patchy coat, and he was lethargic. He was standing in the distance and stared at me awhile. I wanted to help him but I knew that I need not try. After a bit he turned his back to me and walked to an ancient tree covered in vines. He put his paws up to the tree and began to climb to a limb. He stood there on the limb high up the tree and was looking at me again and he yawned greatly and licked his lips. I watched him as he sat on the limb quietly. I felt it was time to leave and turned away and when I looked back he was resting on the limb with his head up in the breeze. And that was the last I remember of him when I woke. I lay there with my eyes closed and my dream continued. I could still see the ancient tree but the great lion was gone. I felt that he found his Tree of Life. I look forward to seeing him again where I will also enter the Great Sanctuary hidden here on Earth, the Garden of Eden. For me there is no doubt.

Excellent! Loved this video. Early man's migration has always fascinated me
A lot of people invaded Ireland 🇮🇪
Vikings were the most influential besides the British (specifically the English)
But then you’d find the Spanish French & probably Portugal were all peoples and nationalities that shipped west to Ireland 🇮🇪
One additional thought to support your idea. St Patrick supposedly drove all the snakes out of Ireland which is a metaphor for the removal of the Serpents that were the priestly class of Ba al or Bel. The Biblical Tribe of Dan used a snake as their symbol and of course in Ireland we have Danu and the Tuatha De Danann. In the middle east they referred on occasion to Giants as Tutannu or Titans in the Greek and Roman versions. Seems to line up mythological, historically, and linguistically.
Then if you go back to Sunmerian text you get the Supreme Leader as Anu whose name is encased in these terms as well as in Uranus as an example. There is a common thread that was disheveled during the Tower of Babel incident and we are having to reverse engineer with what info we have.
My thoughts as well - the snakes he drove out were the serpent race of people.
Wow that's fascinating. Another linguistic support - the Danavas are a race of giants described in ancient Vedic texts (India).
@@little_wonderer9290 the Túatha Dé Danann were not serpents. If anything, religiously they were portrayed as giants, and then later as the Aos Sí (the fairies).
Source: Irish, and a worshipper of the Túatha Dé Dannan
@@roxxybabee The snakes were the Druids, corrupt and way too powerful, like the Filí who came after them right up to the Renaissance had as much power as Chieftains, that type of power back then was open to high corruption.
Yes! That's what I'm saying! This stuff goes sooooo deep, it's incredible 👏 🙌 😍 👌
Perhaps you start at chapter two. The communities that lived in northern Scotland, including Orkney, Scottish Western Islands and Ireland, suddenly disappeared. Shortly thereafter stone circles appear in Northern Sudan and ancient Egyptian mummies are blue eyed and ginger/blond haired. Did their descendants then return to their ancestral homes in Ireland and Scotland? Are you joining in the middle of the story? There is a link to ancient mummies found in China too - what were the people of Scotland and Ireland looking for?
The Sun, moon=Humans have always had to travel due to earths cycles (effected by the sun& moon & other planetary alignments)…unfortunately, the burning of the Library’s (like Alexandria) our true history’s are mostly lost….our Ancestors were looking to do the one thing innate in all beings ….Nature is our greatest teacher (hence, they do lie to us in school) but-the current volcanic eruptions, the drive up of great water resources (Lake Mead & Powell) lush lands turning to deserts=Their WILL TO SURVIVE was strong so, they migrated (which of course would cause trouble (Indigenous/English)…I’m fascinated by what new we could learn (Nothing new under the sun)….The Silk Road is important =currently under construction but just may well connect the dots (red haired people’s council in Asia)…

My mother inherited a braid of hair that is blond and has glass, gold and shell beads woven in. When she got it, it was being kept folded in a piece of very old Irish linen which was in turn kept in a solid silver (about 88% silver with other metals) box and lid with Celtic knotwork chased into it. Mom told me that it had been handed down from mother to daughter for hundreds of years and had come from a female ancestor who had been sacrificed. I had it checked out. An antique appraiser told me that the silver box is about three hundred and fifty years old. A university near me tested the linen and that was radio carbon dated as between 1900 and 2200 years old. The braid of hair was radio carbon dated at between 3100 and 3500 years old. I took it to another lab for dna analysis. This is not a normal commercial dna test. This was done by a lab that normally does forensic dna testing for law enforcement but also will do almost any other kind of dna test for a fee. They took a small sample of the hair and a similar sample of my hair. The person the hair comes from shares the same female line haplogroup as I have and is not excluded as my female line ancestor. Going back that far it is impossible to perform an accurate maternity test but the interesting thing is that there are only an estimated 3000 to 4500 people alive today who belong to that haplogroup and most live in Ireland. My grandmother's mother was born in Ireland as was her mother and her mother going back generations. So of course now I have more questions than answers. One thing is for sure. I have likely the oldest family heirloom passed down from one generation to the next in an unbroken chain that anyone has. An anthropologist from another university that I took it to looked at it and says it is likely ancient Celtic in origin and she said (without knowing any of the back story) that she believed it to be between 3000 and 4000 years old based on the style of the braid and the beadwork and demanded that I tell her where I got it and she thought it was priceless. It is priceless to me. The braid is about 31 inches long but very frayed at both ends. It is about an inch and a half wide and about 7/8 of an inch thick. There are approximately 21,000 strands of hair in each of the three braided locks. They are light blond in color. The gold beads are about 21kt which I have been told is consistent with some ancient gold jewelry from the middle east. The glass beads are nearly identical with those common to Rome circa 100 A.D. to 400 A.D. and the shell beads radio carbon dated to 1150-1400 B.C. and are of a species of snail from the Eastern Mediterranean. To my knowledge I am the only male to have owned this braid. According to my mother it was supposed to have been given to a female descendant but none were interested in having it. So I am at the moment just a custodian until a female descendant shows interest. I'm not much of a believer of paranormal things but my sister and female cousins are seriously creeped out by it. My cousin held it in her hand for about three seconds, dropped it and ran from the room. She won't enter any room where it is kept. Before I took it to all the experts I was convinced it was just a much more recent Victorian era mourning artifact. It was common practice of the Victorian age to keep locks of hair from a deceased relative as a keepsake and often they were braided into jewelry or other decorative items. But the experts are all quite adamant that it is not of that category.
Wow.. amazing stuff....why do your female relatives think it's some sort of curse?
Wow thats incredible.
You are a Guardian of a great Artifact.
Nonsensical write up . Eurocentric lies
This brought tingles to my skin and tears to my eyes. Thank you for your care and research! Perhaps we are related, Irish descent (like plenty of persons). One sister has begun with basic DNA. Your pursuit inspires me to follow up for my being and (blond) offspring. Thank you again for your inspiration along with this YT presentation!

The Irish folk dance is very similar to Dabkeh from Syria/Lebanon.
Another excellent episode, thank-you. This is now more personal to me as my fathers people came to the country we have lived in for some few centuries now from a place in Northern Ireland called Ulster Plantation. At the time of their leaving Ireland they were principally Scots living on land granted to them in Ireland. Unfortunately, or fortunately for them they had backed the crown in the English Civil War, which led to them being dispossessed from lands in Ireland to come to a new land. It was said by some that Fomorians had come from the area of Greece, where they had at one time been slaves. I enjoy your content very much, and again thank-you.
Your father’s people and my fathers people have the same history. Maybe we were neighbors centuries ago.
@@Market_time799 Perhaps.
The Ulster Plantation was an ethnic-cleansing event whereby the British forcibly "dispossessed" the native Irish of their land and "granted" it to their Protestant soldier/mercenaries in lieu of payment. Resentment has lasted centuries. Is it so difficult to understand why?
It was the Fir Bolgs who were slaves in Greece. The Formorians are said to have been Pirates.

If anyone is interested in the Irish language (Gaelige) without learning it, Manchan Magan has some fantastic books such as '32 words for field' outlining how incredibly descriptive and poetic it is.
Gaeilge I think it is
yes! he is brilliant, '32 words for field' and 'listen to the land speak' are wonderful books. :) he also does an irish word of the day on his instagram.
Smogail na róin translates as Snot of as a Seal,meaning Jellyfish
Cornfield to fairy field to playing field ,its confusing 😂
I'm northern Irish would love to learn the language thanks
Those of European descent and in the Middle East are far more closely connected than we realise! In my DNA test I had a good echo of Middle Eastern DNA From a Distant past.
What a great documentary. Loved it and so fascinating. I love the unknown history exactly what this is about, the missing pieces of humanity or better siad the unspoken history. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼❤❤❤
Your documentary holds numerous mistakes and inaccuracies, which is understandable since one needs to be fluent in the Irish language to really understand our culture. Foreigners tend to become fascinated by us and drape us in their own ideas, which have nothing to do with us. Edit; Also, we are a seafaring people who travelled all over the world, there is no great mystery about the fact that we inherited some DNA from other countries and cultures.
Care to identify and correct those mistakes and inaccuracies? At least a few?
The only foreigners on the land of Ireland are what is now the Irish people. Compare the age of the rest of the world’s proven archaeological records to yours. Your a young race and you are not an indigenous one as genetic research has proven. So you are the foreigner and there is no proof of your great seafaring race found anywhere else in the world outside of a relatively small area. Meanwhile there are multiple proofs and theories showing older civilizations were seafaring nations exploring and conquering uncivilized.These aren’t just foreigners being fascinated by your culture they are showing you that you didn’t develop in a vacuum and where you came from. If that hurts your apparent fragile nationalism, get over yourself. Because science isn’t here to stoke your ego it’s here to find the truth based on facts. Which are constantly reviewed and attacked by peers for intellectual eternity. Also the research on your DNA isn’t some it’s the majority of you as a nationality. Perhaps you should look into the mathematical probability of just a few compared to how many truly old Irish families with that trait shows it. Now I’m just an old guy who spent to much time in school for far to many decades and my ignorance is quite profound. However, I truly hope my rebuttal to your statements gets the fires of your intellectual anger going. Or for that matter anyone else’s because that’s what got me going to prove others wrong and me right. Only to find there is more to knowing the truth than what we are told before you walk out the door to find it for yourself and frankly I’m still looking, good luck on your search and proofs of your theories.
@@oneper13 😌 Well, 20% is not a majority, you spelt (I’m not American) “too” incorrectly twice in one sentence. I think you need to go back to school. Also, why so aggressive?
@@oneper13 stop talking rubbish nothing in this video is true or shows any facts it's full of fairytales.. words in this video it's believed..it's suggested there was similarities it could be said 😂😂😂 give it a rest we irish have solid knowledge and evidence who we are and where we came from and believe me it isn't from the middle east or Africa there is no way we would have pale skin tones if this was true and as for we are a new race you need to stop reading all these fantasy books and do some reading on real history monsters aren't real 😂😂😂
@@oneper13 you are correct in a lot of your post, majority of the Irish today are immigrants. Its that little word " ish' like bluish reddish British Jewish. The ancient people of Ireland were slaughted enslaved and scattered. Those who survived were quickly out bred by the new comers.
Just because the name of new comer was changed to sound local and the children learnt English with in say 3 generations, they then believed that their ancestors, have always lived in Ireland. They really should look into their ancestry.
And history of what was happening in Russia Poland India etc from the 1800's and mass immigration during World War 1 an 2.
When my mother-in-law first met my parents (who came to the states in1958) said "oh, I am part Irish, mostly Italian through" my dad turned and said "oh, black Irish, of course". He wasn't being demeaning in anyway, he meant olive toned skin, verses the pasty white typical Irish. He said folklore tells the tales and sad to say, most don't tell the stories anymore.
I heard of the black Irish too from my Irish family. They were a different race of Irish that were olived skinned with dark hair. The other Irish are pale skinned with red hair. My family descended from the black Irish..
Why would he say that, when you have an Italian there?
"Black Irish" - thats a Yankee thing, a Know Nothing thing.
Its the British who are Black - they were colonised by Middle Eastern farmers.

Its rubbish - give an example of there "Black Irish".

This video is based on fiction not real facts good luck taking it serious
The prophet Mohammed was apparently red haired. You can even pull up photos of his directly descended great grandson who is a hell of a ginger.
Also jew though Russia European Irish middle eastern- no brainer
Red hair also ties in with Giants of the middle east lol
@@darrenfry4695 yeah I heard a story about some red haired giant in Afghanistan that the US military came up on and ended up having to to kill after taking some heavy casualties
Your video agrees with a theory I’ve had since college in the 1970s! I am glad that somebody out there has seen the same link that I have! Thanks!
Heckuva lot of "well, isn't this interesting" and "how about this coincidence", but very little, if any, modern scientific backing. There was trade between Europe & the Middle East, so some items being found in Ireland could be expected. The linguistic similarities aren't backed by modern studies & the Celt language is entrenched thoroughly in Indo-European. Giants are found in mythologies worldwide. A colony or settlements would leave a larger linguistic, genetic, & cultural footprint that could actually be traced back to its origin.
I guess a fun supposition for believers in Atlantis & Nephilim.
I'm Blackfoot, Cherokee and Irish mixed, I'm proud of everything that made me ❤wado/ thank you for this much appreciated history much love and appreciation

I had my dad do a DNA test for genealogists in New Mexico, USA. My family descend from the Conquistadors that came to New Mexico from Spain and Iberia.
My grandfather was blond and blue eyes, his brother had red hair and blue eyes. This is not unusual in the Spanish people of NM. Red heads pop up all the time.
What was unusual is that my father's DNA was 33% British Isles. We were able to view a map with other people with the same haplogroup. He matched a lot of people from County Cork, Ireland.
My family has been in NM over 500 years. Our haplogroup is JM172, Jewish. I keep asking these genealogist and historians where this British Isles DNA comes from because my father's family is well documented way back into the 1500's.
This video really made me think about other ways we could have so much Irish DNA.
I wonder if the Jews originally had blonde hair and brown hair, hence the red hair?
@@KristenKras We know the Bible describes David as having a ruddy complexion. I don't really know, but maybe.
My maternal grandfather was born in Ireland. He often talked about the eastern Mediterranean influences on the Irish world. The Laudabiliter issued in 1155 basically gave England the authority to occupy, govern and subdue Ireland and its own unique customs. History reveals that those ways were significantly different.
When I was visiting in Vermont once I was taking a walk and I almost felt led to this cemetery. The writing on the gravestones was this beautiful script to me it looked like Arabic or something but it was actually Gaelic. I definitely have Irish ancestors as well and on that same trip a man gave me a four-leaf clover that he had been carrying in his wallet since 1970s I believe he was Irish as well.
Figured out I'm Celtic the other day and now this pops up.
Brilliant video, Conor MacDari has a book Irish wisdom preserved in the pyramids, very complimentary to this topic. Irish Moroccan here so I need no convincing of this 😊
Finding this amusingly interesting, my great grandfather who was born in Ireland, always said we originated from the black Irish, due to some of the family's typically Mediterranean appearance. The rest of us were all pale, red hair & green eyes, yet I always attributed the throw back in looks to his grandmother who was Eastern European, likely a Jewish gypsy who had fled persecution during conflict.
Although Christian the women of my family always held some pretty alternative beliefs, more akin to Buddhist, yet all wore the star as a family tradition. My mother wears hers to this day!
So basically we are all just travellers passing through this life & all sons & daughters of refugees, aye makes sense!
@alan dickson which makes “racism” null and void if everyone realised they were mixed race; but they’re too ignorant to see/recognise or even consider one’s own roots!
Mediterraneans are not black ,there is no black irish but the inhabitants of these coastal lands in ancient times came from middle east or mixed but black ! lol no
You can't be a Christian and Buddhist at the same time. You have to pick a side. "You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons too; you cannot have a part in both the Lord’s table and the table of demons." -- 1 Corinthians 10:21
The Irish migrated to the Middle East then came back. They did not originate there as dark skinned people
@@jaysparrow6631 exactly its utter stupidity to think of ourselves as in some way separate!
I used to think of myself as Scottish & Irish mixed heritage, then I found out I've French, Armenian etc in the family tree.

What most people do not realize is the Irish have a strong Middle Eastern tie. My line, my literal last name, is translated to mean the brown Warrior. There was a high population of Portuguese and Syrian immigration Ireland. The Irish, are known as Europe's appendix, as they have retained knowledge from pre-written history through oral tradition and was one of the first ethno groups to start practicing the written word due to the Middle Eastern influence. In particular Irish lineage lines you will find many Middle Eastern characteristics which is in my family. It's very fascinating and it is so nice to see a video that touches upon this.
