    There are quite a lot of megaliths and standing stones here in Britanny as well. It proves celtic people had a sense of what could remain through time such as stones : they are in a way their eternal traces.
    Stones have a peculiar caracteristic I could experience on my own : it is that it traps in a way the energy. If you lay your hand on one of the stones( of a megalith for example), you can feel it is full of the energy our forebears once had (or maybe other people who laid their hands there haha).
    Amazing video and very moving music...
    Keep going please. I love your content.

      I'm very interested in Brittany, it's where my old maiden name comes from supposedly - Britton. I do love hiding inside the burial chambers on rainy days :) here in South Wales it rains a lot. I learned flat stone walling a few years back and my tutor said something astonishing to me, he said "the only reason farmers do flat stone walling is because all our farmland is littered with the ruins of the past" I supposed therefore that the only reason they are called standing stones is because they were the only stones left standing.

      Those megaliths are far, far older than the Celtic people. They were created by the people before the people before the Celts.

    What People don't realise is - Most of England and Southern Scotland was in control of the Britons (Welsh) for centuries, if not thousands of years before the Irish is Scotland and English in England ever came to be. Which means, many finds from such places may well be Brythonic, as opposed to Saxon (English), Irish, Viking, or Roman.
    I also believe Northumbria was a Brythonic Kingdom, not a Saxon or Norse one. Why, Cambria is Latin for Wales and Cumbria which Rheged was an ancestor Kingdom of, was Brythonic. Why would they have such similar names?! Evidence for cultural changes as opposed to all out invasion in my opinion. You also see similarities in Wessex.
    The standing stones were used for navigation and recording the movements of the stars. The druids were known as far away as Greece for their astronomical knowledge. And many Greeks came to study with them.
    Btw, The Irish never resisted anything as the Romans never came into contact with them. Also, Most Celtic tribes Were absorbed rather than Destroyed. Espiacially in Wales. The Silures provided the biggest resistance from the Tribes that would become known as Welsh in the English speaking world. Legend even has it that The Royal family origins of these Tribes was actually Brutus Of Troy....which would go a long way as to explaining why the Romans married into local Brythonic tribes. (They would have been ancestral cousins)
    Oh, another side note....The Brythonic Celts were Christian long before Rome was. The Romans weren't officially christian until the council of Nicea. And the Emperor that did that, his Wife was a Brythonic Princess.

      I do believe however that the Britons (Welsh) were actually the Gaelic people, not the Irish. As The Roman Gallic wars were about those In Gaul and Brittania. Not Ireland. Also, Wales is still known as Galles or Pays da Galles in most Latin Languages. The Scots are even called fhe Gaels....what people don't know is the Wales, Scotland connection and how most of it was controlled by the Welsh long before the Irish, or Norse, or English ever arrived in Britain. Most major cities in Scotland to this day come from Old Welsh.
      You should look up the Hen Ogledd for an explanation if you are unaware of these histories.
