Knockroe Winter Solstice
Knockroe passage tomb in the valley of the Lingaun River in south Kilkenny is unique in Ireland. Though smaller than the great tombs of the Boyne valley, it features #megalithicart similar to that found on its Meath cousins. However, what makes Knockroe stand out from all other Neolithic passage tombs in Ireland is its dual alignment on both the rising and setting sun of the #wintersolstice.
The monument features two burial chambers, one with a short passage facing southeast towards the rising sun on the morning of the 21st December, and a second, highly decorated burial chamber, facing the sun as it sets in the evening.

Newgrange Winter Solstice
zhlédnutí 18KPřed 6 měsíci
Newgrange is best known for the illumination of its passage and chamber by the rising sun at the Winter Solstice. Above the entrance to the passage of the mound there is an opening called a roof-box. On mornings around the winter solstice a beam of light penetrates the roof-box and travels up the 19 meter passage and into the chamber. As the sun rises higher, the beam widens so that the whole c...

I have heriditary hemochromatosis due to my Irish genes. Thanks a lot. Not.
Fairly sure my DNA drinks whiskey and sings maudlin songs with its eyes closed. Da was Clancy and Ma was Flannery. But hilariously, I would not have been eligible as my one was from south Tipperary and one was from western Mayo. But both pairs of great grandparents were local to those areas.
Someone send the introducing woman to toastmasters to learn how to speak without saying umm and uhh over and over again.
What a pleasant comments section. The racists and bots haven't found this video yet obviously 😂
The incessant um's and ah's is extremely annoying and distracting!
My great grandparents, my grandparents, my parents are from Ireland/Northern Ireland and for a time I grew-up in Northern Ireland. I've got native Irish, English Planter, not much thankfully (4.4%), Scots Planter and 17.6% Scandinavian DNA, apart from the percentages for the English and Scandi, it was pretty much what I expected. I was surprised at my YDNA Haplogroup - Irish Type 2, the Northern branch R-A212, I didn't see that one coming. My mtDNA was a surprise too, my g.g.g. grandmother came from Scotland - K1a2a - arguably a Pict Haplogroup. Unfortunately, one great grandmother is outwith the 50Km radius, and by a lot (116 kms), so I can't participate in Irish DNA Atlas. It will be interesting to see what DNA will offer up to us, in the future.

İt seems that Irish have quite a lot of background from Turks....
Quite inflammatory to label DNA from the southwest of Scotland that migrated into Northern Ireland as "British." Obviously an English perception, not a Scots one.
Britain refers to the whole island, of which Scotland is a part of. Scotland and Wales are both inarguably British. To say otherwise would be like the Portuguese saying we’re not Iberian to distance themselves from the Spanish.
So in other words genetics has added almost nothing to the well established historical record
It will all be Nigerian pretty soon!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I read the first Irish were from Africa!
King James 1 of England, (James VI of Scotland) was descended from the Irish High Kings.
I have wondered about the "Ulster Scots" name. It seems from what I have pieced together that the same group of people, the Gaels, moved between N. Ireland and W. Scotland for a long time and well before the plantation started. I think I heard that the DNA backs this up-that they are genetically the same group
I have an Irish surname, but Dupuytren's Contracture runs in the family. DC is highly correlated with Norwegian and Icelandic populations. Apparently, genetically, the "Irish" side of the family looks Scottish with some Norse descent.
It would be interesting to compare iron-age Irish DNA to Spanish DNA. I suspect the Iberian Celts contributed greatly to Irish DNA and language.
The really interesting slides start at 15:00 . You can begin watching there, skipping the preliminaries.
An aunt in Ireland, one of a dozen, is different from her siblings for being six foot & platinum blonde.
Many years ago, I read that virtually all Irish actually came through England (from Europe), or rather, Britain. Some settlers (in England) had been there some considerable time (decades to hundreds of years). So...
Stands to reason. The ancient Brittons were Iberian. Later the corded ware people come in. Celtic was less a people than a culture. And still essentially a Germanic tribe.
My Irish ancestors came to Argentina throughout the XIXth century.
Shame there was hardly any information regarding South Wales and Southern Ireland interchange, as this is a rich and interesting topic worth exploring in detail.
He's using "British" in a non-scientific way

That was superb, just brilliant!! Thoroughly enjoyed the presentation and have come away from the lecture with a deeper understanding and empathy for not only our ancient Irish past but with the Tasmanian People. How the lies and brutal destruction of the Tasmanian First peoples has always been a stain on the White settlement of Australia. To see how the very same broken ideas on island culture were projected on to Irish Ancient History was eye opening and at the same time not surprising. Thank you for bringing these excellent lectures to us, the public.

"Race" and "Nationality are Irrelevant...as there is no one in the World who is of a Singular Race or Ethnicity....There are hundreds of thousands of people, if not millions upon millions of people who have migrated thru out History. Either naturally or thru land hungry Kings, Queens and warlords... Damn how smitten we are with identity...As Ethnonationality is problematic as it is a cause of wars, murder, mayhem and chaos in the World...Just as there is no such thing as an African American U are either African or U are American U cannot be both as this is Historical Incorrect...U cannot be more than what U are...And not just by comparisons...We are all unique just as others are unique in themselves, this the only way we can learn from each other...Cleopatra never claimed to be Egyptian although she ruled over Egypt for 25 to 30years. And her Dynasty last somewhere 300years. There was soo much peace, prosperity and progress. That was when women ruled the World... Haha... But of nowadays the Leftist and Wokeist who want U to cut yourselves up into quarters, halves and three quarters just to please them. Besides the ultimate question is that Cleopatra SHARED the Egyptian culture as never claimed to be Egyptian...Just as people wanted her to be black or blue or whatever colour they chose... Just because U don't look like Cleopatra doesn't mean U not Egyptian.😃...So as to end, Just because my father was born in China it doesn't make me a Chinaman...😃😅😂🤣. So even if your DNA says U are Irish which is really irrelevant...It still doesn't make U an Irishman...As the DNA might prove that have ions of cultural blood in U, but not just stopping at your door of being Irish, Mongolian, German, English or whatever...😃😅😂
I'm a bastard, my father's DNA places him in . I have 49% of that DNA.

Hello my Somerled brothers and sisters.
My mother was a Roche from Ballyhack on the River Sure. I found out sometime ago that her ancestry was likely related to a serf or slave group known as the Yola who were brought to Eira by Normans in the 12th century. There is very little information on the Yola aside from a few CZcams videos. They are probably too small a group to show distinctly on a genetic survey, but if anyone could point me towards any new works on these people's I would be grateful.
Yola is a dialect , not a people . A mixture of Flemish Old English and Norman French .
Roche is a French name (likely came over with the Normans). Also, as someone else already pointed out, Yola was a dialect of middle-English spoken in Wexford. BTW, it's the River Suir, not 'Sure'.

In my fifties I discovered that my father’s (US) second wife’s ancestors were from within five miles of my mother’s in Northern Ireland. My father’s ancestors are Welsh and British. It wasn’t their location in the US because his family are early California residents and the two women were not raised near each other.
