I'm American, but I'm second generation Scottish on my mom's side (my grandma is from Glasgow). I always find it very frustrating when I try to learn about my ancestors and their mythology because they never bothered to write any of it down. So I just have to settle for whatever the Romans were...uh... kind enough to write about their enemies. I do remember reading some stories where the beings of Celtic mythology coexist with a christianized Scotland, so I thought that was pretty interesting. I've heard some Europeans still believe in those beings in the same way some Americans believe in ghosts

Ryan: Unfortunately, the Prose and Poetic Eddas were written by Snorri, a Christian scholar. There are, in fact, basically no true Nordic sources of Nordic mythology. There simply is no way of knowing how much of the Eddas is really Nordic or embellished or perhaps complete insertions of Snorri. The best YT channel for Nordic mythology is Dr. Jackson Crawford, who teaches it at the University of Colorado. Boulder.

I love this channel. I'm Slavic and this Celtic mythos reminds me of our ancient Slavic history. The druids, people of the mounds and of course Mother Goddess worship. In my eyes Christians won the war and so they changed the way history flows. Even when it comes to the Bible there are suspicions about it being edited. Slavic derived from slave in English, but in Polish it's derived from Word as SŁOWO. It is said that the word came first. Our king Chrobry which basically means Tough Guy was poisoned while taking the communion and his successor is called Mieszko which basically means Money and of course he is the king that introduced Christianity to our land (Dagome Index or Iudex is the document about this, if anybody is able to decipher). Now I don't blame anybody as the lost war stems from the weakness, but we were robbed from our culture, traditions and history. Now we have Jesus cult followers in Poland who can't accept the simple thought of anything being different. Now it might all seem as a stretch, but you would have to understand the ancient Slavic language to get what I'm talking about and there a lot of questions still.| Also surprising how Bloodborne game takes on this, even though it's very not in your face way. The Phetumeru which sounds a bit like from your video are major fraction there, of course shrouded in mystery. There a lot more themes there, like Lovecraft and stuff. I highly recommend playing it, just be open minded. Peace (piss?) Eng LICH or just ENG owie, but who can understand me. On the map we are scrubs being fucked left and right. SMH

''The following agreement in the writings under the names of "Matthew," "Mark," and "Luke," regarding the impression made upon the people by the teachings of Jesus, is an example which shows plainly the work of the forging priests. It would be impossible for such agreement to have occurred in the original writings of any three men writing individually and independently...Here is forged testimony: Matthew says: "They were astonished at his doctrine" (22:33), Mark says: "They were astonished at his doctrine" (1:22), Luke says: "They were astonished at his doctrine."(4:32).''-Conor MacDari.

Anyone interested in the Tuatha de Danann should also research the Tuadhé Anu of Scythia, which connects them to the Anunna gods of the Persian gulf (Anunnaki). Then I highly recommend people go learn about the Finnish Väinämöinen mythology and see what you notice. The Mesoamerican gods can also draw specific parallels to these more northern stories. What I'm getting at is that the lost civilization of the ice age that Graham Hancock and many others allude to, are all hidden in mythology and folklore. We are quite literally talking about caucasians whether its Quetzlcoatl of the Maya, Enki-Ea of Sumer/Babylon, or Fionn Mac Cumail of Ireland, which literally translates to White Stranger. This is our lost history, shrouded in fiction.

I think it is worth pointing out that the concept f a Celtic people is a modern idea, applied to various people groups whose ethnolinguistic origin were the same. The reason why it's important to point out this difference is that Celtic peoples spread all across Western and Central Europe, not just the British Isles. The Celts of the Isles were the Insular Celts, as opposed to the Continental Celts, whose mythology and language diverged substantially by the time of the rise of Rome a millennium later. Furthermore, the Insular Celts of the Isles can be divided into the Britons (of Britain) and the Gaels (originally of Ireland, later also of Northwestern Scotland). To put it mildly, the Gaels and the Britons did not like each other. So to see them as the same makes about as much sense as seeing Portugal and Spain as the same. Later on the Gaels invaded Scotland and the Anglo-Saxon invaded England, splitting the Britons into their modern incarnations of Wales and Cornwall (though at the time there were still substantial Britonnic populations up in Northern England and in Western Scotland. My point? This "Celtic" mythology is really just Gaelic mythology.

Some in accuracies in this bit the biggest one was Danu cited as Goddess of the Earth. That's not true. Danu was the Earth as a divine being. Danu was not a humanized God.

My grandad on my mother´s side used to class his grandchildren according to their most prominent tribal characteristics. The broadest brushes were Fir Bolg, Tuatha Dé Danann and Milesian. Although Balor was Lugh´s grandfather no one was ascribed descent from the Fomorians.

This is so interesting. Thank you so much for sharing. I’m actually researching and writing about the tuatha de dannan. They are so interesting to me. Any more information you have on them would be greatly appreciated. I can send my email if you do have any more information about them. Or if anyone does please feel free to contact me. I appreciate you all! Blessings 🙏🏼

mythologies and other sources. Japanese works actually quite have them even though not much in anime but at least in light novels and mangas tho I can't give some sauce but they do, Japanese writers love reading other mythos and incorporating some of their Indo-Chinese beliefs in the artistic symbolisms and inspirations in their works

Remember, King Arthur is technically celtic myth, they share similar elements, such as the magical weapons, a recipient that offers mdevine nourishment(The Holy Grail)and a supernatural tree(Merlin Tree). I hope you do a video on welsh mythology too!
