  2. My greatgrandfather told me one of our ancestors was a fisherman from Orkneys who fished in Shetlands and married from there. I was surprised how accurate my DNA test was and pinpointed there. I think they are more Vikings, right?

  4. If youā€™re talking about the Fomorianā€™s influence on the forces of evil in Lord of the Rings you should really talk about their leader; Balor of the Evil Eye. A giant with one huge terrible eye which was the personification of the scorching sun and struck terror and chaos upon any who looked at it. He bears passing resemblance to another character

  5. Hi Steven. Iā€™m particularly interested in Alt Clut, and how and why my Welsh clan settled there. Yr Hen Ogledd.

  6. It has been noticed that modern Celtic languages are grammatical similar to Semitic languages. Any thoughts?

  7. I'm Dutch and according to my DNA I'm 25.1% Scottish/Irish/Welsh (Celtic)

  8. I'm finno-swedish and my dna test was 53 % Finnish 28 % Scandinavian and 18% Baltic and 1% innuit. Not suprised when know our history, often it shows that we are 1 % innuit but it's more likely from siberia that 1 % are.

  9. My DNA states eastern Cornwell-Devon. My paternal ancestors were tin miners in the moorland.

  10. Iā€™ve got Scottish ancestry and I live here in Arkansas, USA. But my name is Armstrong a name from the Scottish borders. Iā€™ve heard they were mainly part of the Scots/Irish since most American Armstrongs came to America by way of Northern Ireland. But I have plenty of Scottish Highlander names mixed in my family tree like MacEntire,Campbell , MacGregor,Ferguson and Gibson.

  13. There was also a large Celtic migration to the British Isles between 1400 - 870 BC acoording to one genetic study.

  14. Strange because when i've seen genetic maps of Britain, Cornwall is depicted as having 'different' genetics .. usually a pink colour on the maps? I live in Cornwall and my job advisor said she had a genetic profile done and said she's 100% Cornish. So go figure i guess?

  16. I am Norwegian, and a quarter Danish (father is half). My DNA also show from Sweden, which is not uncommon ofc when you share a long border that have not always been constant, and also seeing that DNA is not strictly "Norwegian or Swedish". I am probably genetically closer to western Swedes than to western Norwegians, judging from my family tree history. Talking about borders and DNA though, much of the 'Swedish' ancestry I have is pinpointed to southern Sweden, which I believe is because much, if not most, of my Danish ancestry stems from Danish Scania. I have read about my ancestors in history books, that fought in the Scanian wars. So thats quite interesting. Also I am a tiny bit Forest Finn (from mothers side). So I feel well represented lol šŸ‘

  18. I did an ancestry test about 2 months ago, and I came back 2% norwegian from my paternal side. But recently my half aunt did an ancestry test, and found that she has 9% norwegian and 7% swedish and danish from her mum who is my nan. Even though it didn't show up in my results, I definitely think I still have that Scandinavian ancestry from my maternal side aswell.

  21. Thank you for expanding on the Irish folklore dimension in this fascinating, multi-layered film. I just watched it last night, and videos like this really help me get to grips with some of its facets, and just how thought-provoking it is. You could also mention the juxtaposition of the role of the church and the priest with that of the old woman. The camera work and the score play an integral part in contrasting the beauty of the setting with the troubled lives of the inhabitants. I particularly loved Colin Farrell's facial expressions, as he goes from being the man perceived as normal to the point of dullness, to being increasingly perturbed, to being unhinged ā€“ terrific acting. The more I think about this film the more I see in it.

  28. Well done. Was hoping to hear a mention of Peter Watkins 1964 docudrama Culloden. Entertaining history.

  32. Thanks for another great vid! There's one thing I'm trying to figure out, namely, which ancient populations do we get our light features from (skin, hair and eyes)? Is it from the Steppe Herders? If so, then why are northern Europeans usually lighter than southern Europeans/Mediterraneans/Levantines, with more instances of blonde hair and blue eyes? Would it be because they have more Steppe ancestry? This is just a theory I heard, but I have no idea if it's true. If you're able to do a vid on that topic, that would be really awesome.

  36. Sexual selection most definitely played a role

  37. Great channel. You should get in touch with Anthony Murphy of Mythical Ireland. He has done remarkable work on similar topics with regard to Ireland and its ancient past (often a shared past with our Scottish brethren). Great work! šŸ‘

  38. Yea there's a lot of Ulster-Scots south of the Indiana border in Kentucky. I've been to Eastern Kentucky and some villages had Scottish architecture. And Presbyterian Churches.

  40. The saami also have a genetic connection w the berber as did the Guanche of the canary islands, who themselves were fair complected and light haired. Makes me think that North Africans looked different then than they do now.

  41. Could you do video about the Elliotā€™s and the border reavers

  44. English isnā€™t shy about borrowing words, yet few seem to come from the Celtic languages that preceded the Anglo-Saxon invasions. Do you have any insights into why this might be? In Canada, the term ā€œcultural genocideā€ is used to describe attempts to impose Western values on indigenous peoples. Could something similar have happened in Britain, with the colonists from Northern Europe assimilating the existing population by systematically eradicating their cultures and languages? Celtic words, therefore, were taboo and shunned.

  48. Your videos are consistently good. No waffle like much of YouTube.

  49. Do you know anything on the hillfort in Dumbartonshire, with the name Carman? Do you know if any lines carrying the Carman name? I thought I had once found a Carman castle but it may have been just the ruins of the hillfort. I was only using Google Earth. I know I have a line of family in Ireland, the Mallons. But we are still not sure where exactly the Carman's started. Any knowledge of the hillfort or namesake would be greatly appreciated. My grandmother left us last year, she was the family historian, now it's all left to me, and I cannot read her handwritten notes unfortunately

  50. It is my understanding that Britain had a strong Neolithic component originating from Anatolia starting around 6000 years ago and ending around 4300 years ago with the arrival of the Beaker people. Genetic studies suggest the Beaker people replaced the Neolithic population of Britain by 90%. Do you know whether any of the distinction between the people of north and south Wales has anything to do with ancient Neolithic and Beaker ancestry?
