The Ancient Indians and Gaels of Ireland and Scotland developed/or used the same 5 note musical system.

The only reason I gave this five stars is that youtube won't let me give it six.

The shivers are running up my spine and the hairs on the back of my neck are standing up - this performance is too beautiful for words to describe.

Part 2. "Tantum scuto angusto lanceaque contenti, proeterea gladio nudis corporibus dependente." Herodian Lib. iii. 268. etc.

No one claims that the Scotii built any "stones" or were there before the Picts.

Incidentally I AM Scots as have been all generations of my family for at least 500 years I live quite close to you and know Dunoon well. End of discussion.

haha fine if your going to reference books that were published under the reign of Q. Victoria. I would refer you to modern historians. I dont find Wade in any book on mythology
But if you wish to keep your romaniticed version of Scotland. so be it

Part 1. Fact The Caledonians were those referred to by Romans as Picts - not separate groups.

I do not wish to get involved in further argument so I can only refer you away from myth and hearsay and recommend you go to reliable sources such as Pinkerton "That the Caledonians and Picts were one and the same people is now universally allowed."—Pinkerton, i., 105, Continued in part 2.
