That’s from my fathers side n my moms side is from the Henderson of Glencoe that were the pipers and bodyguard of the Macdonalds of Glencoe, we were related by the marriage of the chiefs daughter to heather john n their son was John of lochsbar n became first maclain. My fathers side is related to Drudkine Mac Ferat the 69 th king of picts defeated by Kenneth MacAlpin n his son was sent away with retainers to the king of Norway Olaf 2 n married his neice n several generations later came back as commander of the army’s n fought against the Scots.

I heard on another video that it is theorised that cernunnos is likely the primordial ancient God in Europe and as time went and societies changed aswell as other influences we ended up with pagan branches based from cernuunos but in particular Odin(in whichever version you choose) and dagdha. It's believed there very likely was a basic all round God in our very early days before things became more complex and society evolved. It's even more likely since concepts of 'god of' aswell as heaven, hell and even Valhalla were modern concepts in the grand scheme of thing. We at one point wouldn't have needed many gods when everything about Hunter gatherer culture then as time evolved and things like large scale wars and separations and divides occurred with profit and privilege became a thing, every changed. Unfortunately, due to the fires of Alexandria any proper evidence based knowledge on this topic was likely destroyed forever. I should say cernunnos most likely is far from what that original God was called it's just all we have I guess to refer to them as.

Monotheism is subversive

Óðinn and Dagda do indeed have a great deal in common. Their names 'Allfather' of course. Then there is their association with the dead and mounds. Their association with ravens as Óðinn has two ravens(Huginn and Muninn) and Dagda being married to the raven goddess of war, the Morrigan. The fact that the Dagda wears 7 shrouds and Óðinn is even often referred to as Grimnir, the masked one.

Very interesting as a cultural synopsis to include the cultural correlations between that of others and their bidirectional relationship! Great work loved every min! Honestly I believe that having direct linkage to this inherent interest, culture and exposure to the megaliths such as Grianan and Newgrange, with some of my family owning some ground some monuments are on that this cultural identity can live on through folk like myself!

Real druids are bloodthirsty black magicians, and many politicians today consult and or are druids, as are many freemasons and other kabbalists. Right now the world is in the end times prophesied in the one true religion, with a great deception of false worldly "good" coming very soon, which if one is deceived by, they sever themselves permanently from GOD and are damned. So it is time to set down all fantastical delusions and focus strongly on reality to prepare for the coming spiritual war for our eternal souls.

I appreciate how much information you’ve put together here. Thanks

Thank you so much for making this video! I found it very insightful, detailed, and fascinating. Your efforts are much appreciated!

Fantastic! Thank you! I'll have to re watch so I can make note of all your text mentions. I enjoy being able to read them, if they've been translated that is.

Not a dull moment in history or on the Lugh-- thanks for passing on such knowledge.

I've already watched some videos about Dagda, but this is the first time I've watched a video with such a detailed and perfect explanation! Brilliant stuff!👏 👏👏

The Dagda as a god of the underworld (at least the good parts of it) makes a lot more sense when you consider Brigid as the Dawn goddess. The sun does appear to come out of the earth in the horizon.

I appriciate you and your content so very much. The amount of work that you must've put into just this one video is astounding. I live in the states, more specifically, Pittsburgh. We have the Carnegie Library which is one of the greater libraries in the country. But....but, the amount of time I'd have to put into JUST FINDING the literature to tell me what this hour long video tells would literally take me weeks. So, thank you very much. Liked, subscribed, shared and all that stuff. Good luck in your personal future as well as this great channel.

Aside from the good information, for which many thanks, I'm enjoying hearing you speak the old names and words.

Very well done, does not even come close to do this work justice, so all that can be said is, thank you.

Thank you so much for these videos, they're so instructing and interesting

Outstanding work. As one clarifies the characters in the myth and lore of various cultures - they can see similarities without the presumption that the deity or character had to actually be the same entities. The personification of spirits and aspects of life originally made them easier to understand. Now folks seem too literal and have lost how to get the essence of what is to be learned. You did a sterling job of covering this material. Thank you for your hard work and diligent research.

As the Dagda is referred to as holding an iron staff, we can assume that he came during the iron age either at the beginning and displacing the original stone builders or during the iron age where he introduced Druidisim, this means that he was several thousands of years later than the late stone age and early bronze age stone circles and standing stone era. Also recorded battles amongst Druids were often verbal battles over a piece of Philosophy or a new direction/ceremony rather than blood and guts fighting.

The iron age isn't the age iron was first discovered. Just because something happened in let's say the bronze age it doesn't mean only bronze was available. Those are named as such because these metals became much more common and widely used throughout.

@hawklord100

Жыл бұрын

​@@nicholasthompson6152 You are being free with the ages of discovery, the earliest use of iron so far discovered was approx 1200bc in eastern Turkey and although it fits in with the migrations of people from 'anatolia/Turkey' approx 1200bc it is unlikely to be earlier and probably quite a bit later than this earliest date. So what I am suggesting is that as the stone megalith circle and mound building time span was typically 5800bc to 1200bc stone age and through all of the european bronze age, for a 'traveller' band to show up holding an iron staff has to be later than 1200bc, well outside the construction time span of say Newgrange. but it does fit in with migrants invading and killing off either with disease or a new culture takeover which may have being what stopped the actual Stone/Megalithic buildings. So at best you are subtly correct but it is certainly later than 1200bc as iron wasn't widely known or smelted for many hundreds of years due to its rubbish properties of corrosion, brittilness and difficulty in smelting but yes a 'priest/shaman' would more likely have it than a war leader

I don't live in Erin but my people (Collins) are from Kent. Embracing my families ancestral roots I've incorporated Irish lore and mythos into my spiritual, homely and familial praxis. My great grand mother and her kin from Kent brought the faeree over with them and the subtle practice survived in my family. And I'm sure Curnnunos as the Romans called him is actually De Dagda in one of his aspects. As the cauldron was his most important tool, and it was a regeneration cauldron for the dead, it makes sense. Keep up the good work. Like the video.

This is utterly fascinating, thank you so much for all your hard work! I think "regular" Christian chroniclers might get a bad rep undeservedly. Those with an agenda - as with academics today that are trying to prove a point or make a name for themselves within the current framework of scholastics - sure, they will color their findings to suit what is "popular". But genuinely curious people who believed EVERYTHING would reflect the truth in one way or another, I think, would just record what they saw and heard of belief and folklore honestly - hoping that someone one day would understand it better. That might be naïve, but I really don't think so. It is how working anthropologists, archeologists, and free lance enthusiasts of a particular subject work to this day. Thanks again for all your work!!

You got me with 'poetry'... (added w/edit: "sweet sounding and radiant")

The Dagda has both Cthonic and Indo-European attributes. Sounds like a High King/Priest or Druid position of the pre-existing common folk. Later, Llugh is the high leader but Dagda is still present in his role. The Dagda is the only one who weds the Moriggan. Llugh only receives her blessing and she decides whether to enter the battle on the side of the Formorians, the Tuatha De/Fir Bolg under Llugh or not engage at all. So it seems the Moriggan and the Dagda may have been Neolithic roles of High PriestKing and High PriestessQueen elevated into Deities and incorporated into the new Tuatha De Danaan pantheon.

The Celts are "Indo-European"

I had a theory recently while studying celtic linguistics that Sucellos' name doesn't mean "the good striker" but rather "the well hidden" or "the good hidden one" as cellos looks to me like it comes from the root cel- meaning "to hide". I further connect this to the ethnic or tribal name Celtae / Keltoi, as I think this comes from the past participle form of the root cel which would have been celtios, in the plural celtioi, thus making the word mean something like "(they who are) hidden" perhaps a reference to the fact they believed themselves descended from Sucellos. This can be supported by the fact that Julius Caesar says the gauls believe themselves the descendants of Dis Pater, and with Sucellos likely being the celtic hades, it's an interesting connection. Also I noticed that the story of Bran's invasion of Ireland to take back his sister sounds a lot like the Persephone story of a goddess entering the under world with a distraught relative who wants them to return.

I enjoyed this very much!, thank you for your work! Beautiful in the way elemental wisdom is expressed. My takeaway is all about the water element. The element of water and the way it flows, trancends, mutates and expresses itself through the different fases of cardenal proceses (natural law) and mutible processes (imagination/spiritual/psych) ways to express. I think every person alive can learn something here ;)

Nice work

Outstanding video. I’m not too well versed in Celtic mythology. This really helped. Hope you do more.

Also the Merlin Saga by T.A. Barron uses much of the Celtic pantheon in it's story, which is what originally started me down the path of reading mythology. Highly recommend to anyone who wants Celtic or Arthurian influenced stories!

..by the light of lugh AND THE TRUTH OF THE DAGDA AND THE WANDERINGS OF ANGUS AND THE GOOD MILK OF BRIGHID ..THANKYOU

You are spot on with all you have said here. I researched this stuff all my life. Bridget was so popular the pagens made her a saint

So interesting hearing about my ancestors mythologies

Is it just me who kept hearing The Doctor? A fitting description i think and methinks

great video cheers

Great vids. I am a Christian but I love learning about various mythologies. I watched the Historicat's video on the Druids but I was disappointed because he dismissed all the written sources as being created whole cloth by Christian monks. It's nice to see a more nuanced take

Christianity is mythology too. Someday you will see.

Lugh was just the SOMETIMES king of the tuathe (the celtic bronze age Poseidon) The Dagda (or Daire as his name was) was the high god worshipped by the other sons of ethniu. Dagda is almost the god of god's (like Ra in Egypt) Lugh

What is the source for the claim Daire is another name for the Dagda? I have not been able to confirm this. However, the Genealogy of the clan of Laigda says Daire is also called Lughaidh.

​@@FortressofLugh Firstly thanks for the most interesting response I've ever had to a youtube comment. Secondly I can't recall and failed to find a source, however in looking it turns out the word "Darragh" is the root origin of both daire/dara and dagda LOL. It's very interesting Daire=Lughaidh in the Laigda geneology but clan genealogies are IMO the least reliable form of texts and generally invent a fake foreign origin like with the Macdonalds, Campbells and Frasers (all disproven with Y chromosome studies). It is still a very interesting link though.
