Is This THE MOST INCREDIBLE Historic Site? 

On better thoughts a wid prefer a guided tour by yersel as your better then aw ma history teachers when at school in the 70s.. I live near Kinross and love my history around here, it's mind-boggling how much is based around my home..

Grand presentation as per usual but thought to let you know, it took me quite a while to work out why that red squiggliness with a North arrow was staying on the screen... hmm... it might work better if the dot representing you stayed put and the map slid around under it, like on a FPS game, which is easily understandable to youths of today. Hmm... in fact, I might do that myself.... Aye.

G'day Bruce, Just came across this. Did you score yourself a part? Nicely done old mate. Big time movie star. You lovely mug appears at 0:28 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Bgv6KHeAFeY.html

This could have easily become a video on the history of the Shellfish...with a side track feature alluding to their relationships with various human tribes...who just so happened to co-inhabit this place...

I have entered a reply and mentioned this site, which alike Iona, Tintagel, Avebury and Glastonbury, and others. These sites are all linked to the period mentioned in the video, was it 3000 BC, and close to the time of the Great Pyramid? I sense there was a spiritual renaissance that emanated out of Sumeria...who lent their wisdom in the building of the Pyramid...this is a special place with connections on high, and linked to the predicament of humanity and the Last Judgment. INterestingly, these Sumerians were the survivors of Atlantis, and carried forth their knowledge and wisdom, but a douible whammy with links to Atlantis is that many sites on the western board of Britain were part of the northern kingdom of Atlantis, as was Iceland, Greenland, and Norway and others nearby areas. Mostly these were later the living quarters of the Vikings. The Atlanteans were much more advanced in spiritual terms than any other nation or people since...and some of their inventions and ways were phenomenal. It is not surprising then that the many sites built in 3000 BC, such as Newgrange, have an awe about them, for within the wisdom that built them is the Atlantean knowledge. The fact that in a day and a night their northern continent sank due in part to their karma should be a worrying fact for we modern agers...who imagine we can do what we want to the planet without the retribution of natural forces that are directed from Above. We have all been constantly warned to change our ways, during previous incarnations...and the Great Pyramid was the greatest monument dedicated to the omen of the Last Judgment...but humanity do not understand it, nor fully comprehend the other structures like Newgrange in their entirety. I was actually blown away by the powerful energies there, and along with Tara and Glendalough, it is a deeply spiritual and sacred place.

It's not that anyone is more or less intelligent. It's that every generation has the collective recorded knowledge and experience of every generation before it. An amateur astonomer today will know more about the universe than the likes of William Herschel could ever imagine, simply by accessing Wikipedia or googling any telescope array. We're just lucky we were born when we were. Or unlucky, depending how you look at it.

How is it your ancestry?

@@chrisapperley2616 my father was an Indian immigrant to the US. My husband is a Scottish immigrant to the US, born and raised in Edinburgh.

​@@thedoveston6781 But what if it's wrong? Take Tycho Brahe for example. We inherit their knowledge, along with their errors. In fact, I would suggest we might currently have more error than knowledge collected in this century.

We were born on third base and we stand on the shoulders of our ancestors.

gobekli tepe is probably the oldest. It was buried under a hill of dirt pot belly hill is the translation that was hidden around 40000 years ago buried then so was built before agriculture. Due to the mutations in grains in the region to help grain seeds stay on the stalk so you can harvest them .

@@ZiGGi03 they are all very interesting ;)

@@ZiGGi03: You sure? My understanding is Gobekli Tepe is about 12,000 years old, which is already remarkable as it is a massive structure that would have needed a lot of labour to build and it was built before the invention of agriculture, so we don't know how they fed the workers. That said, the fish trap engineering in Brewarrina is around 40,000 years old and a remarkable example of extremely early engineering designed to make collecting food easier and to ensure continuity of food supply.

@@resourcedragon You are more or less right and Zigi is mistaken about the dates. Wikipedia - not always a reliable source, but OK on this - gives dates of "between c. 9500 and 8000 BCE" i.e. between c. 11,500 and 10,000 years ago for Gobekli Tepe. There are many references given to the article. And, for any prehistoric structure or object, any claim that is the "oldest" must be heavily qualified with "may be" "possibly" etc. They are just the oldest which has survived to the present, and has been discovered by archaeologists. The very earliest examples of anything are usually among the least likely to have survived. And the amount of detailed archaeological studies which have been done, varies widely according to areas of the world.

@@resourcedragon there's no actual evidence, from what I've read, that the Brewarrina fish traps are 40,000 years old. The truth is that no one knows how old they are, but that certainly doesn't diminish their importance. As far as we know, Gobleki Tepe is the oldest construction that can be, more or less, accurately dated

That would be awesome to see these on PBS!

We loved those sites on Orkney but Jarlshof takes it to another level. If it wasn't for child minding our grandson I would love to head north to Scotland in April and spend 6 months revisiting the Orkney Islands, Shetland Islands and Hebrides plus exploring the islands we have not been to so far.

Very cool!

You're welcome

Brilliant

Yeah man😎

🤮

😜

Also if you don't like shellfish, come to Nova Scotia (it's the same rocks and mountains as Auld Scotland!) and try some Digby Scallops wrapped in bacon - they might change your mind!

Definitely!

At least you're town name goes back before the founding of the US midlothian is a good old scottish name

@@theywantusdead373 I believe it got the name due to the abundance of coal here.

Ah brilliant, thanks
