Oweynagat, a journey into mother earth.
Loading...
Uploaded by mikejcroghan on Mar 24, 2011
Oweynagat is also known as the entrance to mother earth. The cave holds the divide between our world and the otherworld - especially at Samhain.
A focal point for pre-christian spirituality it is still visited and used by those who venerate mother earth.
In early Irish literature Oweynagat is home to numerous monsters and creatures from the otherworld. It is also home to the great queen Morrigan and the goddess Medb.
In one local fable a woman grabbed on to the tale of an unruly calf who ran down the cave appearing two days later in Co. Sligo.
The cave was formed by hydro erosion and in early christian times a souterrain was added at 90 degrees to the cave, this entrance is the one that visitors use today.

I was there with a friend 4 years ago. We went on our own. It was an adventure just finding the cave. We only went in about 4 feet so it was interesting to see what we missed. Our feet were very wet.
