Wow! 200,000 tonnes and still watertight. Those photos at the 6, 14 and 22 min. mark are just gorgeous.

Yes Ireland has a pre Celtic story. Have a listen to an interview with Andrew Power who wrote a book called Ireland Land of The Pharaohs. The interview with Andrew is on The Brehan Law Academy. We were robbed as a people of our true inheritance by the British /Roman priesthood. The ancient spiritual teachings of the magian Irish priesthood was brought to people's around the world. It was known as Iesa Crios and taken by the Romans and of course manipulated. Our ancestors didnt worship the sun but the creator behind the sun. Thank you Anthony for your work.

Stonehenge has no summer connections. Only the Winter solstice was significant there. There is a huge amount of evidence of people being there in Winter, absolutely none for the summer.
