Anyone who's a history buff will love Pete Kelly's channel. History the way it was meant to be told, with facts and videos.
And aliens.
I could do without the 8 minutes and 45 seconds of bullshit before he gets to the point.
Dude i love this so much. The music, the scenery, the narration, the research... it's SO GOOD 🤩
I like the spiritual tone of this video! There is so much we don’t understand, and won’t know.
I really enjoy how you edit and present your videos. (Mini documentary's?) The narration adds a feeling of wonder to topics that some people might find dry or boring. Thanks.
I like how there's a Druids Inn pub down the road near Stanton Moor and Stanton Drew in Somerset
Your are awesome! Learned more from your channel than I ever did in school. I so appreciate all the time and effort you put into each show. Better than American documentaries in so many ways. Thank you so much Thank you Thank you. Stay safe
AGREED 🖖
Really loving the videos. The 9 ladies was one of the 1st stone circles I visited on my 1st trip to England. Thanks for sharing.
Fascinating. I had always wondered about nine maidens. My parents live in West Cornwall and there are two stone circles with that name. One at Penzance and one at Helston. I didn't realise it was so common.
Joseph Campbell and The Power of Myth I recognized that quote from the program. These stories do matter.they contain our shared human experience.
Pete your intro is brilliant! Talking about following your bliss really spoke to me!
I seriously enjoy these (for you) local vlogs where you explore sites of ancient history
You are a clever, talented, and passionate storyteller. And you are right, there IS something very special about the Peak District.
It takes courage to swim against the current. You are swimming through the currents like the brave and humble salmon . You are a much needed inspiration in these times. Thankyou for the courage and knowledge you have given our family. Mike , from terraignotauk
Interesting to note, Arbor Low is situated where nine ley lines meet. Of such significance, the crown saw fit to place energy blocks on each ley line to stop the flow into the circle. these have recently been energy cleared using crystal to allow the flow back in. Be nice to have the grid fully operative again :-)
I want to say y'all are lucky to have ancient sites to visit. Very little is "old" here. My Mom told me that they had lived in the Ozark Mountains forever, and that may be. Her tribe, like most, left no records, so who knows. Take care. I really enjoy watching y'all's videos.
Yo Pete, are you going to continue with Anglo-Saxon documentaries videos? Seems you been getting away from that. We would love so,e more stuff on the old north, early Northumbria (Edwin era) and please please please please it would be awesome if you did a video about the smaller Anglo Saxon kingdoms outside the heptarchy, like Lindsey, Hwicce, Maegan Sadie and all.
Thanks King Pete, may we serve our grand history king and let him live long and prosperous.
These videos are absolutely amazing also. But I can’t even begin to tell you how many times I have enjoyed the other ones.
Many cultures around the world have stories about groups of nine women. In Great Britain they occur in a variety of situations. In Scotland there are references to Nine Maidens, purportedly a group of,[clarification needed][1] and there were a number of wells dedicated to them,[2] but like all similar groupings would appear to have had their origin in pre-Christian times. In Arthurian material, the best known of these groups are the Nine sorceresses, Morgan and her sisters who live on the Isle of Avalon and are both seeresses and healers.[3] Another group occur in the Welsh tale of Peredur son of Efrawg, and these are the armed witches of Caer Lyow.[4] Also in Welsh mythology, we have nine maidens who tend the fire below the Cauldron of the "Chief of Annwn"; this cauldron is the target of Arthur’s raid on the Underworld in Taliesin’s famous poem Preiddeu Annwfn.
Follow your bliss and doors will open. So true
I am fairly new to your channel and have enjoyed all the episodes I have watched. This episode was so thoroughly enjoyable and engaging. What a treat to watch this today. Thanks for sharing.
I love stone circles and other megalithic monuments in part because as someone of entirely Western/Northern European ancestry they are part of my heritage.
Excellent video . I've visited quite a few circles .The energy is still there ,I tend to dowse the sites with some interesting tales
Great video, I really enjoyed the whole flow.
Thanks for sharing. 👍
I visited the nine ladies twice years ago when the protesters were there. It seemed like a pretty magical place.
Oh Goodie! Story Time, yum.
Its very nice at the nine ladies you can really see the seasons change up there if visiting on a regular basis. I prefer the nearby Doll Tor though it has a much different feel about the place, more relaxing!
fantastic, enjoyed this , interesting and very watchable , love the music , who is it Pete ?
I love your videos Pete.. seriously, you have a great talent for scripting them and you do a fantastic job with all the work that they take..
if I lived over there, I’d be traipsing all over the place to haunt the magnificent history you’re gifted with..
there’s absolutely nothing remotely comparable for hundreds of miles in any direction from me.. and where I am in New England, the “pilgrims and settlers” were notorious for erasing any bits of Native history they came across and they cut down the ENTIRE ancient woodlands for about a thousand miles 🙄😤 sigh.. if you’re interested in PRE history in the US, there’s not much to be had on the East coast..
thanks so much for sharing your videos with us, they’re just excellent!! ATB~Ruth
We have a local site near me called Ringstone Hill in Brierley near Pontefract/Barnsley. Also couple of miles south east of there they found an ancient settlement while building a housing estate in South Kirkby. They assumed it was Saxon and the estate was thus called Saxon Way. It only consumed part of the site, rest is now protected and i believe further research found that its actually a late bronze age settlement. The original Kirkby was lost to time, wiped off the map, i believe due to their association with the siege of Pontefract castle during the 2nd civil war, but might have been earlier? Harrowing, Vikings, Romans?
Another stone circle worth visiting is Castlerigg stone circle near Keswick in the Lake District. Plus the landscape is stunning and the Keswick pubs are top notch.
Great life advice!
probably just has something to do with the 9 months of child bearing.
hmm.. never thought about this way.
Did they have a concept of months?
@@leonlawson2196 Do you.
Great video Pete! I agree nine relates to childbirth- needing the help of the gods
For a good outcome-
Stay well❣️
Brilliant. Great channell and a detour from the usual stuff. keep it up, i loved the guitar , drums n acoustic work/ music.to. cheers ;)
Just like Stonehenge there is more and more proof it was for music sound purposes. I see the stone cirkels like a Ancient Festival terrain .
"Just stories?.....All things begin and end, with 'just' stories." -Ragnar Lodbrok, Vikings TV show.
Thanks Pete, that was fun and took me back. I used to be able to see Robin Hood's stride from home and we used to walk there to play.
Another fabulous videos live in the peaks but learn’t me loads xx
Great stuff Pete, thanks.
While small and not well known there are few monuments of this kind in western Switzerland. They are of course preceltic monuments. Interestingly enough they are found in the region of the celtic tribe of the Helvetians. Is it right that those kind of relicts are always found in regions that were later on home to celtic people?
I was always incredibly fascinated by celtic culture, music and legends.
A genetic test revealed that my origin is 70% of celtic origin from Ireland and Britain. Less than10% from central Europe. The rest of my genes are mainly from southeastern Europe. Amazingly enough my family lives here in Switzerland for at least 8 centuries.
Sometimes I think my ancestors fled from Britain when the last Romans left and the Anglosaxons settled there.
I start believing that the genetic background of a person has an effect on his interest and feeelings.
Hey Pete, if you haven’t read Robert Graves “The White Goddess” you should consider it. It analyzes the poetic meanings of old legends.
One place I was intrigued by is a place called the Stone Fort in Giant City State Park in Illinois USA its never been dated or explained the state has quite a few places I have visited that have captivated me since childhood. Great Stuff Love Your work and highly recommended to those I know
Nine is my number in life and you just finished speaking of the number nine at 9 minutes past here in South Africa.
A beautiful video Pete! May I ask, what music was playing? Love the guitar!
I read Joseph Campbell’s books, especially “The Power of Myth”.
In my country, i.e. Poland, northern part we have stone circles atributed to Goth settlers. And some of them have the same legend - about stoneturned dancing people. One if them, Babi Dol near Zukowo, is commonly known as Stone Wedding.
Way back in the day I read JC books on myths.
The Rollrght stones fascinate me being an older site than Stonehenge with several stories/legends attached to it, the location is interesting perhaps the boundary between the beaker people at Stonehenge and the native Britons, would be interesting to see the construction of the sides compared and the archaeology found to see if they are the same people at both sites. There is an obvious line of sites (mostly long barrows) from the river seven just past Bristol ending in Chipping Norton and the Rollrights that make me wonder if that was a boundary marked out with the ancestors ending at the stone tombs at the Rollrights and a stone circle perhaps to honour a leader/spiritual figure.
It's obviously very different to Stonehenge and Avebury.
Such beautiful scenery! I hope to visit your country someday. Unfortunately, my bliss was taken from me. That door was shut in my face, when the love of my life filed for divorce the day after our 39th anniversary, and refuses to even speak to me about it.
There's gotta be a super violent history in those parts over millennia.
Kudos for the Will Ferrell/Chad Smith clip 😊
They are certainly my heroes.
The Nine Ladies sounds like something straight out of the Witcher. But I'm pretty sure it was stories like this that inspired such modern version of European Folklore...AND I LOVE IT!
Thanks for Joseph Campbell reference. Building on the past, are we?
What else is there?
@@PeteKellyHistory i identify with that question. It's the only path to a better future!:-) 🖖
hi Mr pete,
love your work,
ever considered using a metal detector on some of your ventures ?
just wondering?
thanks again
🧓👩💻🏖️🇺🇸🤭
Are you going to do any more Anglo Saxon videos?
In india the number 108 is important because it equates to 9. They fast for 9 days and give gifts to 9 girls at the end of the fast. It's goddess worship.
Thanks, Pete...wouldn't a time machine be nice ??
What was the fiddle music Pete?
So the nine ladies got stoned and danced to Black Sabbath? Sounds like fun.
Fine modern day audio/visual storytelling Pete. though the modern day fantasy super heroes captured in cinema, film and even music are but mere marketed celebrity cartoons, like looney tune pop culture icons, contemporary legends in their own minds, created, scripted , rehearsed and held dear by fanfare as tribute paid by screen and speaker bound voyeurs, void of any enduring fabric or meddle that holds the memory of real legends steadfast through the long test of time.
hey great video as always .you say 9 is importent,i do not know if it is relatet but in denmark we have a saying, i hope this or that do not happen 7-9-13, like an old protection spell
You showed aerial footage of the lake district near the start...I mean, come on!!!!!!
More than lightly nine meteorites that entered the atmosphere!
lightly wtf
👍 👌 🖖
hey Pete, dont ya think the number 9 is significant because of the 9 months a woman carries a child?
Your friend should have a strap on his camera to wear when climbing.
I like how you appeal the mystical fancies but stick to facts. You don’t get all crazy, but impart the wonder of the places.
Another universal myth is that of the Seven Sisters of the Pleiades constellation. Is it our early ancestors calling out to us.
at 4:00 still nowt about stones :(
(01:27) a "god" is an abomination, especially Norse and Celtic "gods" who expected human sacrifice is an abomination.
Well that bullshit touchy-feely new age opening should have been left on the cutting room floor.
In the future, let's refrain from the discount rack guru nonsense, shall we?
Pfft. When my lost minimum wage job working self found that ‘touchy feely new age’ advice 6 years ago it set me on a path which led to my dream job. I will never work a day again in my life. I love what I do. The words of Joseph Campbell were a huge part of that. My CZcams channel History Time with 500,000 subscribers might not exist without Campbell’s advice to follow the ‘Heroes Journey’. Might I ask what you spend your days doing?
@@PeteKellyHistory Goddam right, sir. I have literally NO spiritual or religious beliefs, and I thought that beginning was wonderful.
Also, having been here since you still had to work that job, it's been great to see your channels grow and evolve.
@@PeteKellyHistory Touché!:-)
Off you trot then. Max Kronader. Missing you already. Not.
