WHY is the narrative that "early" man didn't know how to build boats? Why must we always restrict ourselves to man "walking" all over the earth. If Noah could build a big boat (or Gilgamesh), surely boats had been around even before then.
I am inclined to think Darwin has hoodwinked most people into believing that since apes don't build boats, early man didn't either. Phhht.
Most of them were as much good as contemporary women politicians...absolutely worthless! Women are not likely to be good rulers, administrators, and organizers until they assume equal responsibility with equal privileges or rights.
When a male leader makes a mess of things, other men call him out-whereas when a woman makes a mess of things, chivalry and gynocentrism enter the picture (not to mention a lot of feminism) and any criticism or accountability is banned.
of course it takes an eternity to reluctantly discover that there were females rulers, 'modern' men interpreting the past. Reminds me of the cave drawings that 'modern' men have decided must be prehistoric porn.
Have you read "Carmilla" by an earlier Irish author - Sheridan Le Fanu. It is a relatively short Gothic novel pre-dating Dracula by about 20 years (there are a number of similarities (not least of all the isolated Castle...)? It is dated but still a good read.
I have to agree with the other person who responded to your comment.
Where in anything of the article above can you find something that could be classed as "Christian propaganda". You make is seem as Christianity and Celtic Legend/History were not compatable - when in deed they were sufficiently interlinked to have what was known as the Celtic Christianity.
The Abhartach legend involved a christian monk coming up with the solution to the scourge.
How are the "celt" or celtic people being demonised? This is not the most scientifically rigerous site (nor is it supposed to be) but we should stop short of subjective unsubstantiated statements which turn out to be incorrect.
There is no suggestion anywhere in the legend or associated myths that implies "interracial blood" - You are applying word-logic, however you are doing it in English rather than "as Gaelige".
In response to your comment above I would like to ask were you are getting your "information".
In the Irish tradition Fairies are not seen as Demonic. They are called Aes Sídhe in Ireland to differnetiate from other similar legends. Also the origin myths for aes Sidhe are concerning (fallen angels who did not follow satan to hell, undead who could not get to heaven or even children of Eve - then there are the non-religious myths which have them as the old race to have been displaced and are now in hiding.
There is no evidence that megalithic sites were built on any type of energy "line" or such - let alone any hint of these places being where demons manifest.
Everybody agrees crop circles are a modern hoax - End - what have haunted houses and UFOs got to do with anything.?
You seem to be eager to link any myth to some satanic superstition without any objective evidence.
this only reflect badly on your position.
The Buttermilk Creek, TX site yielded dates between 13.2-12.9 kya (thousand years ago). The Pedra Furada, Brazil site yielded dates between 10.5-12 kya. The Monte Verde, Chile site yielded dates between 18.5-14.8 kya. There are actually several sites in South America that have yielded dates older than 11,000 years ago.
Funny thing about “Hard Evidence”...In the end it is also just Speculation and Conjecture based on Thesis derived from just a few rare fragments found. It is all still just “Best Guess”.
Actually, age erases the sagital suture on almost everyone. most people over 50 have skulls that lack this landmark of the skull. The skulls in question are simply the skulls of old people.
`Work on Kumbhalgarh only began in 1443, nearly fifty years before Columbus sailed the Atlantic Ocean and discovered another, even larger, wall in China´
Please!..you need someone to get their facts straight!!
Columbus did not discover China and the Great Wall. While he did sail west to look for China, the continents of the Americas came between him and China, which frustrated him no end!
An obvious fake worthy of the Freak Show. These types of anatomical monstrosities are still commonly found in curio collections around the world. The most commonly seen are "mermaids" created by stitching the body of a monkey to the tail of a fish. This "hand" was made by setting the phalanges of a normal 5 fingered hand together to create 3 extra long fingers and setting them in a clay matrix. there are 2 dead giveaways. 1) the bones of the fingers are out of order with a random mix of distal and proximal phalanges that is inconsistent from one finger to the next and 2) the central "metacarpal" of the "hand" is actually a backwards facing human ulna. The other metacarpals appear to be broken bird bones that have been randomly scattered in the matrix to give the appearance of a hand.
To the fellow who is upset at any claim that Celtic warriors might have been in pre-Hellenic Egypt, Yes, it is true that Anglo-Europeans like to say that ZImbabwe and other places couldn't have been black-African, but, Egypt was never Nubian. They were distinct ethnically, and in terms of appearance, even if, as regional neighbors, they influenced each other.
To the white-european guy claiming the Egyptians were genetically European, you are so wrong, wrong, wrong. Yes, the Ptolmeys were Hellenic-Macedonian. But, the Egyptrians were clearly an Afro-Asiatic people.
Here you can navigate quickly through all comments made in any article sorted by date/time.
The remaining sites are under water, but no one wants to search.

Back to the kitchen, ladies...
'modern' men are emasculated by modern cultures.

Rumors have destroyed many Cultures and Civilizations.

Very true… I stand objectified...

BS. Period. http://www.peruthisweek.com/blogs-calm-down-the-paracas-skulls-are-not-f...
'Nuff said.
BTW, the photos in the above article CLEARLY demonstrate that the Paracas skulls do indeed posses sagital sutures.

That's a lovely stone structure.
I wonder how long it will be before the Taliban decides its not Muslim enough and blows it up?
