Exploring the Ancient Monuments of the Isle of Man

[benny1473]

there are no ancient monuments on the isle of man,,,, they were built in the 1970s to attract tourists...

[YamaKazoo]

People who belive aliens built these have no respect for the people that made them.

Shame on you for your weak mind

[cdbfort]

the awe of antiquity is profound, sadly not a reality I have here in NZ......, but it does goes a long way to showing us, that to look forward, we need to be able to understand behind:)

[Burkard]

6:00 it is fully intact even today but you can only understand it by watching the sun at the solstices...

[Burkard]

2:35 i bet that this circle is connected to the solstices because every ancient megalithic struture was built to fix the solstices (made by the fallen ones and not by humans) it is no house it is a marker for the PRECESSION OF TIME

[banheden]

stop telling lies please.... its not 4,000 years old, its much older and its not built by normal men, living normal lives, and they were definitly not hunter/gatherers!

[Staroth999]

I am very fortunate to have my family come from Isle of Man.

I think thant someone would have worked out that these are clocks.

very interesting

It's that stone levitation that accomplished this. I'm going there in an OBE eventually, to know for certain. Have you read The Secret Vaults of Time? Or, William Buhlman's Adventures Beyond the Body?

i live on the isle of mannn woo

[acerb45666555]

if the Cruithni up north in Caledonia had an enormous population, its only logical that in the south the population was even bigger! so building these henges etc, was fairly easy with all that man power!

[benthejrporter]

Incredible set of vids. Thanks, Bottman. I live not far from the Rollright Stones in Oxon. These structures fill me with a sense of awe and mystery. What were the people who built them like? What was going through their heads when they built them? They were obviously a culture like nothing we know of today! If only we could meet them face-to-face and ask them a few questions.

great video. visiting the isle in april from ireland and ive a feeling ill be right at home among the heritage :D

[manxdude1]

i lived on the island all my life and did not know some of it:)

[TribalWar]

excellent video. Why in the desciption when you earch the video does it have ufo's etc?

[SangoidProductions]

Like it. It's great to have a guide to these sites which are probably the island's most personal and impressive tourist sites, let alone historic sites...

(But the saccharine Celtic music was terrible - sorry!)

[bottman2512]

Thanks for that. Sorry the music's not to your taste. It's actually not particular to this clip but is the main theme for the whole film and it's not meant to be "Celtic' as such. It's here to cover the transition in the journey from Newgrange in Ireland to the Isle of Man section and is being used as a reprise. If you saw the whole film I think you might be a bit more forgiving. But, hey - then again, it won't be to everyone's taste! Cheers from Michael Bott

[samluke8121]

@bottman2512 I actually think the music was exciting and suits the ancient world because of it's mystical history.
