I hope so as well. I've never in my life come across such friendly people. Even find myself defending this place lately.

That's a really good explanation about the history. The view from hoare abbey looking upwards to the rock is something to behold as well. Thank you for putting this up!

Wouldn't it be great to see this awe inspiring place fully restored , seeing as it's mostly intact! 😀🤔☺️

If this place found itself somewhere in Germany, it would be restored. Perhaps a future Irish generation may realise its potential and restore it to its former glory.

I understand that written records about irish history have been passed down, but maybe with us mainly speaking English now, some of the history has been forgotten because it would have been passed on Orally, like they did in other countries around the world. Old Irish history passed the 16th century seems kind of blurry and mysterious, who where the people who built Newgrange?, Dún Aonghasa?, Tara? i think its more amazing than we make it out.

You show collections of bronze age artifacts found at Cashel yet make no reference to the pre-christian history of this site. A cashel is a ring fort made of stone usually on a high spot. This site was likely in use for thousands of years before Patrick and the church. This is what we call recency bias in history.

Exactly and that's what brought Patrick to this famous landmark royal residence and natural stronghold. He was a charismatic man on a mission to establish Roman Catholicism in the island of Ireland and he selected the highest lords to tell about the saviour who was crucified and came back from the dead. He must have been responsible for some miracle cures or nobody would believe him.

@@noelogara1 Hi Noel! I saw your thoughtful response to my post and it looks like I was being rather snotty. I apologize if it came off as such. I do appreciate what you have shared on your channel. In the Annals of the Four Masters we find our earliest known ancestor Tanaidhe Mag Uidhir who was "comarb" (or clan chief) at the Bangor Abbey (county Down) which was founded by Saint Comgall around 558 which was about 100 years after Palladius and Patrick. My Tanaidhe was killed by those pesky Norsemen in 958. Slainte!
