Do you live near dragon hill ?

This is a wonderful film Martin, how evocative is this landscape? I hope to visit at some point (from Yorkshire)

Very well researched.

Another beautiful video, hard to pick a favourite Callanais site as the whole complex together is so intriguing. Have you seen Howard Crowhurst yt channel on the incredible geometry found in Megalithic sites. Sadly most of his work focuses on the Carnac area where he lives and south England, and some very interesting sites in the States. I bet the same geometry exists in the Scottish sites, as he was also inspired by the work of Alexander Thom and has found Megalithic mile measurements in American mound complexes and metres in French and other sites! I bet all the Callanais sites would fit his geometric patterns! Thanks for your amazing work 👍😊🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Lovely site and you got a lovely day to visit. There is quite a lot of houses and infrastructure in the vicinity, I somehow imagined the complex being much further away from such things . That's what they call progress I suppose.... Thanks for sharing Martin.👍🍀

Beautiful vid, ty Martin. 💛

Home sick for the home I've not yet been to. Both of my grandmothers were of Scottish descent. And I end up with a Saxon surname. HA! Go figure.

What is your favourite Callanish circle outwith the main site? Comment below.

Liked, subbed and a comment for the Algo boost!

"Marmion" was a long poem by Sir Walter Scott, a piece of historical fiction ending with the battle of Flodden. It is the name of an Anglo-Norman family.

Lovely, Maes howe would be my favorite. I gave you a plug on the Pre History Guys channel, as I thought you deserve more viewers, bit naughty but deserved! 👍🌝🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

I grew up near Cathcart Castle in the 1970s (I was born in 1960). Me and my brother often went there. Back then it was a 3 or 4 story high building and you could go inside up and up to the first level above the vaulted ground floor. The council had been trying to keep it in good odrer and they sometimes had stone masons doing maintenance work. Sadly not enough effort, or money, was spent on doing the bigger scale work that would have been needed to stop the Castle falling down so badly that it was beyond repair.

which direction is the comet stone in relation other the Ring of Brodgar. My favourite site is the Stones of Sternness. It's not as complete as some, but there was a feeling of depletion I sensed at the Ring whereas the Sternness stones seemed to be holding their own. They could all do with a good recharge, but I believe these sites are not sanctioned for Pagan use.

Like your videos, but frustrated by the lack of information in the Descriptions. What’s the Comet Stone about?

Aside from the obvious Ring of Brodgar, I would say Vestra Fiold, Sandwick because of the findings of excavations 2002-2004. This is a quarry rather than a circle. However, it does give insights on how monoliths were extracted, and prepared. My bad, Fiold, not field. It is north of Skara Brae.

Super great 👍👍👍

Thanks for this. The Broch of Gunness is my favourite.

What is your favourite site on Orkney? Comment below.

That looks a really interesting place. A great meeting place many moons ago. Does the mentioned ley line go to that small island on loch Moy.

Interesting to see you finding stone designs like here in Czechia...

I do agree with your thots re the one stone having facial features .

I have to admit, I hadn't even known about Cathcart Castle. It sounds like an interesting site. It is a shame about the state of the site.

Excellent stuff Martin. I know this site and will be doing a shorter film about it in Scots. I believe that it would have been Haley hill ( holy hill) but the transcriber has not been adept at interpreting Scots. I am indebted to you for the simulacra and the phallic insight which I was unaware of. Also Spine of Albion is a great steer. I will check oot! Thanks 🙏

Love your videos. I was born in sunny Faifley. Amazing place to grow up. So much history has been hidden in the area. I showed an Australian Aboriginal elder a sketch of the stone...and they could read it, as a star map and so much more! They also noticed that it was in the northern hemisphere...I and did tell them that..

Thanks for posting

I didn't even know it was there! Very informative as always. Thanks for this.

Interesting: shame it’s not given signage, but maybe hard to park / access amongst that busy traffic, so Council doesn’t encourage visitors? Would have liked to see an image of the outlying stone that’s in the industrial estate.

Thank you for this. Even though I have been through that area, so many times, I had no idea that Holy Hill existed.

What do you think of the simulacra and male stone, intentional?

I will be in Glasgow in a few weeks, any idea what this stones are made of?

Richard & Cummings Stone Circles A Field Guide says Achmore was exposed by gradual 20th century peat cutting. It was about 41 meters wide originally. The monoliths were not properly set in dug sockets, but held up by surrounding unstable rocks along their bases.

Very important site . Cany wait for première ...

Look like the area has so much to offer. I love remote sites like this. Thanks for sharing.

This came up on my feed and I immediately got full body goosebumps. After being on a long, intense spiritual/shamanic journey for 5+ years, I know that this is an indicator for soul calling... I have either been to this stone circle in another lifetime or am being called here now. To be explored.... Thank you for sharing ❤

Thanks for covering this lesser known iteration of the Callanish Stones. I was lucky enough to be working in Lewis in 2013 and was very impressed with this site and its awesome expansive vistas over the island and across the sea to the West. I visited here on several occasions. Your video captures the beauty of the area on what looks like a fabulous day. The video also brings to mind the question of whether raising and restoring the stones of sites such as this should be considered.

Stone circles are fascinating, aren't they? We think we know what they were for (in this case, a sort of early calendar), but they nevertheless retain a sense of mystery and offer a window into our distant past. I'd love to visit this place one day.

Fascinating as always. The whole landscape at Callanis must've looked magnificent in its day, and it's good we're still finding more of its history. Thanks for this.

Very interesting. Thanking you.

thanks so very much for adding to our awareness of our ancient ancestors.

Loved Achmore energy.Found it just before we left the island last visit & was so glad we managed to locate it.

Where are the pictures of the actual stones then? I didnt see any standing stones at all. Disappointing video 😢

Loved the video, Callanais has so much to give. Loved the 'pregnant' sleeping beauty, reminded me of the sleeping giant at lochgoilhead where people wonder whether it's a sword or an appendage on him! 😊

I lean toward a different explanation of the “sleeping beauty”. It’s quite windy up in Lewis in the winter and she put on a bit of a pot belly whilst having a few pints indoors waiting for the winds to calm down. Besides, when you’re going to have a wee bairn you’d be more comfortable sleeping on your side. 😉

You can defo see the bump in her belly in my opinion.

Do you think the ancient people seen 'Sleeping Beauty' as pregnant from this location? Comment below.

It's also a energy weapon for ET's. Only joking" But it does concentrates energy from the layline to each stone around the outside circle, And if you put your back to each stone inside the circle and the energy is now focused on the recumbent stone from every stone, Lie on it when you are feeling crap and 15 min later your buzzing with energy. Every time I went out their I got that feeling.. It's like a smaller version of the hadron collider in Geneva, Just on a smaller scale.. My Atoms are always charged when I visit the East aquhorthies steen's.

Brilliant, can't wait. Love your videos. 👍😊
