The ancient Celtic Carnyx.
Үй жануарлары мен аңдар
For all you Celts... at the Festival Interceltique de Lorient - The carnyx was played at Carlos Nunez concert (by John Kenny I think) - bronze trumpet wind instrument of the Iron Age Celts, used between c. 200 BC and c. AD 200. I guess the bag pipes were scarier but I don't know. You judge.
This festival was awesome. Look it up.

I challenge you to sit through some heavy shelling in a modern conventional war if you think ancient warfare is scary. At least back then you could see what the people trying to kill you, and if you couldn't see them then they probably couldn't see you. If you've ever studied WW1 history you'll know the effects of prolonged shelling aren't even limited to just a horrible death, you may live to see a fate far worse than death. Whether it's because your mind will be broken, or because the wounds you sustained end up getting infected by the filth in the trenches, or by what they call ''wet shrapnel'' (I will leave it up to you to guess what that is) is almost irrelevant. I'll leave you with a quote from a French soldier in Verdun: ''When you hear the whistling in the distance your entire body preventively crunches together to prepare for the enormous explosions. Every new explosion is a new attack, a new fatigue, a new affliction. Even nerves of the hardest of steel, are not capable of dealing with this kind of pressure. The moment comes when the blood rushes to your head, the fever burns inside your body and the nerves, numbed with tiredness, are not capable of reacting to anything anymore. It is as if you are tied to a pole and threatened by a man with a hammer. First the hammer is swung backwards in order to hit hard, then it is swung forwards, only missing your scull by an inch, into the splintering pole. In the end you just surrender. Even the strength to guard yourself from splinters now fails you. There is even hardly enough strength left to pray to God'' This is by far one of the least graphic descriptions I've come across, but I find it gets the point across rather well doesn't it?

Imagine with me for a moment. As a 20-year-old Roman soldier stationed in Britannica, the allure of exploring distant lands gripped your imagination. Marching through mist-shrouded forests in present-day lower Scotland, the haunting sound of the Carnyx preludes the thunderous charge of hundreds of Celtic warriors. True, primal fear envelops you in the realization that you're on their turf, a realm they master in combat. Confronted with impending doom, your choices narrow: fight and face certain death, flee only to meet a similar fate, or plead for mercy, perhaps sparing yourself for grim ritualistic torture. You realize that escape is an illusion as the weight of their ancestral prowess bears down on you and you're cut down and trod underfoot just as your people had done to theirs.

Imagine being the poor guy that fell asleep just before that started playing
No the player is Abraham Cupeiro, a galician carnyx player. He builds his own carnyx
primordial, beautiful.
One of the best sounds I've ever heard. Must have been absolutely terrifying to hear before battle.
Imagine your Gallic mates playing this to frighten the Romans, but all you hear from the other side is "Pullo formation!"
Chills every time this thing played. My ancestors must be from Rome because I have this deep seated unnatural terror upon hearing this damn thing. Super cool!!

Did no one in these comments take history in school? The Romans completely wiped out the Celts in continental Europe

Imagine you're one of the 40 000 Romans at Alesia. Resting in between two thin walls. Inside the walls, 80 000 Celtic, Aquitanian and Belgic warrior. and on the outside 100 000 more coming.

Note that these are not the ancient estimates, but the modern ones. The ancient ones were 10 legions (legions have inconsistent numbers so could be anywhere from 30 to 60 thousand) vs a relief force of a quarter million (+ the army inside the city)
Literally sounds like the intro credits for an epic historical film

That sounds amazing 😮
Imagine living in a time, where death was always just around the corner, born and raised in Rome, a city with 1 million inhabitants. You spent your youth working as a carpenter and built furniture for people. You decide to join the newly formed Legion and you are sent North. You make your way through the Alps, feeling a dry cold you never felt before, making your way over rough mountains and through wet and foggy valleys. You reach your destination, a small fort along the young Rhine in modern day Switzerland. You spent most of the remaining time with some woodworking, improving the fort and building furniture. After spending a harsh winter there, some of your comrades already dead due to the cold weather and disease, you are sent out to pacify a village in a nearby valley. You march out in spring, the beginning of April, foggy days and then hear this.
Minecraft cave noises were invented centuries ago
This invokes an ancestral sense that I’ve never felt before. I genuinely felt like I wanted to let out a war cry after he let out the high pitched cry.
OME it's so beautiful... ❤
Am I the only one that this calms? I love the sounds so much
