New Light at Newgrange

As part of our celebration of Winter Solstice 2020 with OPW - Office of Public Works colleagues, which seem to have caught the public imagination in an extraordinary way this year, we thought you might like this short film on the architecture of the Neolithic passage tomb and the remarkable Solstice phenomenon.
The film, produced by John Murray of Crossing the Line Films also highlights ongoing research being carried out by OPW - Office of Public Works and National Monuments Service - Archaeology at the monument which forms part of the @UNESCO World Heritage Site of Brú na Bóinne.
We have had two wonderful days so far of OPW - Office of Public Works Solstice coverage from Newgrange, and thank you to all our many friends, old and new, from across the globe who have joined with us all in celebrating the dark end of one astronomical year and the brighter start to the next!
FINAL DAY of OPW - Office of Public Works live streaming tomorrow from 0845am UTC/GMT at heritageireland.ie/winter-sol... and where you can catch up on the last 2 days of beautiful imagery and expert commentary by Clare Tuffy and Dr Frank Prendergast.
Happy Solstice!

    @Nautilus1972 That's right. I remember a school trip to Newgrange in 1960 when I was 7 years old. It left such an impression on my young mind that I have never forgotten it. Mind you, it was a lot easier for a small boy to walk along the passage to the centre than it would be for me now.

    correct...the sun is reborn at the winter Solstice when it reaches the Tropic of Capricorn on its ecliptic and starts rising (birth) again towards the equator...death and rebirth of the sun...Newgrange represents the coming together of the two forces of yin/ feminine and yang/masculine to create life in the womb...the emerging 'sun god'...

    A celestial calendar. Never underestimate the practicality and the importance of survival. These ancient cultures knew that they needed to keep the seasons organized, to know when to plant crops and to know when to harvest them. Blending practicality with the spiritual has always been so interesting to me. It's so human. 5,000 years later and we still seek to find spiritual meaning in practical things.

    The amount of time, research, mathematics and knowledge that went into just the PLANNING phase of these structures is astounding. Someone would have to NOTICE the short days, find out which day is the shortest day, count out the number of days until the next year, find out EXACTLY where the sun hits at sunrise...build a structure that lines interior corridors and windows up EXACTLY to that sunrise date and time. Then there's the excavating, dragging the stones and building it to these specifications! Who had time--and knowledge, to do this...I would think they'd be hunting, growing, building huts and just trying to survive the harsh elements. Just like with the Pyramids, it's incredibly hard to believe it was a primitive society, with no modern tools or education, not long removed from "cavemen" that built these monuments. Maybe someday we'll find out the truth.

    @@knov314 I agree there is ample evidence around that shows there have been many great civilisations that existed long before the Egyptians and the Greeks and so forth. Look at the temple of Gobekli Tepe in Turkey, built twelve thousand years ago by a civilisation that nobody has an knowledge of at all and its taken current day archaeologists year's to stop denying it admit they were wrong and agree with the age of the temple. Why? Because like all evidence found of great civilisations not recorded by current history it's disrupts the "agreed time line" of how the "experts" say history developed. There are new sites being discovered all the time now with the advancement of lidar aerial ground penetrative radar and its has a lot of established historians very worried as they are now feeling like the Catholic Church priests did when more and more scientists were presenting the public with evidence of history and life which contradicted that which the Church preached and enforced. Look at the recent discovery of human hand and foot prints that have been dated to being "200 thousand" years old. Think of the people at that time and the villages towns or cities they could have built, only to have all knowledge of them wiped from existence by natural disasters or disease or war. And the only remnants that remain today are enormous monolithic stone's that are so heavy that they remain in place even today or built upon by succeeding generations of humans. There are even rumoured to be ancient archaeological remains found in Antarctica dating from when the continent was ice free and like you mentioned the American military who discovered it are said to have been removing anything of grand importance for US governments own agenda. On the mention of the Atlantean civilisation you might want to look at the KZread channel Bright Insight as he has presented evidence to show what I and many others believe to be the actual location of the lost city and it's no longer anywhere near water which will surprise you and is even more believable and amazing. The fact that a CIA document on the location has only just been declassified also shows that there is something special about the location.

    The archaeologist who excavated and restored the Newgrange tumulus was a certain Dr. Michael O'Kelly. Apparently, he is still criticised for restoring the tumulus following contemporary architecture. However, I think that his critics should comprehend that it is a huge structure that was complicated to build and its had caved in before the good Dr. O'Kelly excavated and restored it. What else could the poor man do it to bring it to picture perfect without the concrete plinths and quartz outercasing? The tumulus would have collapsed without his intervention. The restoration had to allow for the mind to work out how to keep the tumulus from collapsing once again. The doorway into the building allows for the showcasing of the creativity and genius of its farmer builders. Dr. O'Kelly, well done, Sir.

    Considering the reconstruction with concrete with the refacing of the white stone wall and more importantly the increased height of the aperture of the light box and inner stones I’m surprised that they could get a idea of what was originally intended. Will it ever be restored correctly? The passageway could be LiDAR scanned and with 3D software, multiple solstices could be had under different processional times and adjustments of said light box and stone. It would be intriguing to see if the parabolic discs at the end if polished enough or covered in reflective material could send the sunlight into a spiralling loop to be observed slowly by the ancient users rather than the crude idea of a place to put bones which may or may not of happened and if it was was just some way of burying them with their creation afterwards in honour or just plain vengeance.

    The beginning of the shortest day of the year is also the beginning of the longest night. This last shaft of sunlight before that night may have symbolized the dead’s spirits ascending to an afterlife. From a Christian POV, I also consider the Diaspora (the scattering of the 10 tribes of Israel). Perhaps “sunlight” is equivalent to “Son light”…the path to return to God.

    Newgrange is certainly not the oldest construction in the world. I always wonder where 'scientists' find the proof for this kind of conclusion. An old Arabic book, the Hitat, tells us that the pyramids in Giza were built 72,000 years ago. But the reason for building both structures is the same. Ancient books as the Mahabharata from India and the Popol Vuh from the Maya tell us that the earth is suffering from a cycle of natural disasters. These disasters are causing a huge tidal wave, floods, earthquakes and a bombardment of fiery meteors. Many animals become extinct, mankind hardly survives. This creates a cycle of civilizations. One of these civilizations is, near the end of their existence, higher developed than our civilization today. They vanished 20,000 years ago because of the next recurring, thus predictable, disaster. To tell us that they existed, they constructed huge monuments like the pyramids. And Newgrange may have been a survival place. It must have a very strong roof to protect against the meteors. To learn much more about the cycle of civilizations and its timeline, recurring floods and ancient high tech, read the e-book:"Planet 9 = Nibiru" You can read it nicely on every computer, tablet or smartphone. Just search for: invisible nibiru 9

    Just because human bones were found inside doesn't mean it was a burial mound. More than anything, this looks like some form of bomb shelter to me. Why go to all this bother to bury some people? I don't think that was why this mound was built.

    Noi milanesi discendiamo dai Celti insubri e troppi secoli vicini a latini , e popoli mediterranei che ci hanno imposto la loro cultura ci ha rovinato .... Nn ultime poi invasioni nel secolo scorso di gente del Sud Italia, che sono i discendenti dei greci romani ecc E l'Italia a livelli governo centrale sempre in mano a loro 😢 Ora invasi massicciamente da magrebini ecc ecc ecc Adoro la cultura celtica e mi sono tatuato la croce anche se purtroppo da noi vieni considerato un fascista
