Tragedy of the Sons of Tuireann - An Ancient Irish Legend

[@karlheeren8727]

Thank you. It is a pleasure to hear these tales every St Patrick's. You always include especially nice visuals. Keeping the tradition of the Irish Seanchai alive is a good thing.

Cheers, I try my best. I enjoy sharing these stories every year myself. Everyone seems to know about Ancient Greek and Roman legends or Norse too, there's loads of great stories from our own ancient culture I enjoy sharing them so people can remember them or especially for those who've never heard of these tales

I am proud to bare the name of Brian, certainly one of our greatest kinsmen. Sending love from the usa to all of my Irish brothers and sisters around the world. These are tough times, but our people will certainly power through as we always have. Be well my friends, and may god give you the strength to power through!!

I came across here on my research for Tuireann as the irish equivalent of the norse god Thor, for a story I'm currently writing! Thank you for that great summarized telling of that legend! Sadly it seems to be the only famous legend about him to be found throughout the internet. I originally hoped to find other stories or facts about Tuireann himself. Can you give any tip, by chance?

All this trouble for some pig skins. Poor Sons of Tuireann... Hehehe. Glad to see you have continued this St. Patrick's Day tradition of yours on your YT channel. Love the footage of the castle ruins you used in the video. Happy St. Paddy's Day, Franklin! :-)

Cheers Jasosn. If you want to learn a little more on the location I just uploaded a new video on that :)

Name Brian did not exist until King Brian Boru 10th century , Just a heads up for future stories. Mad story that it is ..

Oh man, I love these videos Mokong! 😁

[@mokongx3m]

Cheers Kav, always think to myself when making one "hope Kav enjoys this" ;)

Very interesting story and well read Franklin, ever thought of producing some audio books? I think you would be good at it. :D Outstanding video filming that was both very beautiful and also quite haunting! I would love to be able to go back to the times that place was occupied, just to see how they lived and also to see the castle and buildings in pristine condition, it must have been a sight to see. Great video. :D

[@mokongx3m]

You get an audio book production company in touch me... so long as I get paid I'll read (almost anything) they want haha. On the location I don't think the place was ever actually "occupied"...check out my next video I just uploaded to find out way ;)

If you read on the invasion of the mysterious sea people's who collapsed the bronze age you can match the stories. The name of the water by Italy is the Turien sea. The ancient city in Lebanon is Tyre. In Spain and ancient sea culture was called Tartessos and Egypt and Greece called the sea people's Denyens or Danians and the Tarshish.
