Celtic Mythology - An Introduction to the Tuatha Dé Danann @saoleile-tomas

Saol Eile A short introdocution to one of the most important races in Celtic Mythology - the Tuatha Dé Danann. These were the old gods of Ireland, Britain, and much of Europe, and their tales have been preserved for us in ancient manuscripts first written by Christian monks over a thousand years ago.

And if that isn't your thing, then maybe the scenery is - I'm on top of An Cruachán, a mountain between Kerry and Cork in South-West Ireland.

Celtic Mythology - An Introduction to the Tuatha Dé Danann

Saol Eile 2017-04-25 | A short introdocution to one of the most important races in Celtic Mythology - the Tuatha Dé Danann. These were the old gods of Ireland, Britain, and much of Europe, and their tales have been preserved for us in ancient manuscripts first written by Christian monks over a thousand years ago.

And if that isn't your thing, then maybe the scenery is - I'm on top of An Cruachán, a mountain between Kerry and Cork in South-West Ireland.

Smaointe Eile ón gCruachán

Saol Eile 2017-04-26 | Leagaim amach roinnt den smaointeoireacht atá ann taobh thiar de na físeáin Bhéarla atá á ndéanamh agam. Más féidir liom duine a tharraingt i dtreo na Gaeilge le scéalta, stair, nó tírdhreach, beidh mé sásta.

Berechert ag Tulach Léis

Saol Eile 2017-02-25 | Cuairt a thug mé le déanaí ar Thulach Léis, i dtuaisceart Chorcaí, áit a bhfuil cloch ghreanta álainn ó thimpeall na bliana 800.

Nótaí ar an bhfíseán féin: Script agam an uair seo, agus ábhar níos fearr dá bharr. App ar an bhfón agam a chuireann an téacs ar an scáileán, ní raibh sé sin ró-olc in aon chor. Ní raibh seastán agam don fhón, bhí orm é a chur ar an mballa, agus bhí solas láidir ag mo chúl - beidh orm a bhí airdeallach ina choinne sin an chéad uair eile.

Teampall Brianaid

Saol Eile 2017-02-18 | Físéan gairid a rinne mé le déanaí faoi chiorcal cloiche Theampall Brianaid, taobh le Cloch na Coillte. D'fhoghlaim mé fíor-mhíniú d'ainm an bhaile, agus go raibh baint ag an ainm leis an gciorcal seo, mar sin níorbh mhór dom cuairt a thabhairt air!

Nótaí ar an bhfíseán féin: An fón i mo lámh agam, agus gan é an-seasmhach dá dheasca sin. Ní raibh script agam (mar is léir!), agus ba bhotún é sin, ní mór dom rud éigin a chur ar phár as seo amach.

Smaointe Eile Oghaim

Saol Eile 2015-05-29 | Na smaointe atá agam faoi Ogham - agus na ceisteanna atá agam ach go háirithe. Má tá na freagra ag éinne, nó a thuairimí féin, beidh fáilte agus fiche rompu anseo!

Ancient Irish writing - the Ogham stones in Múscraí

Saol Eile 2015-05-29 | I take a quick trip to the Ogham stones at Uaigh Abbán. Ogham is the first system of writing used for the Irish language, in use on standing stones between ~400 and 600AD.

Smaointe Eile ag Cathair Con Roí

Saol Eile 2015-04-17 | Na smaointe a ritheann liom agus mé thuas ag Cathair Con Roí, Silabh Mis. Téann an físeán seo leis an gceann eile, as Béalra, a dhéanann cur síos ar an siúl suas agus anuas.

San fhíseán seo cuirim ar aghaidh na tuairimí atá agam maidir le heolas, aineolas, agus an bhearna eatarthu.

The ancient cliff-fort of Caherconree

Saol Eile 2015-04-17 | Join me on a hike to Caherconree (Cathair Con Roí), a magical destination on the Dingle Peninsula, Ireland. It combines mythology and archaeology in a setting that is nothing less than stunning.
