Exploring a 5,000 year old Tomb
Manage episode 434092134 series 2509021
Portal Tombs are scattered across the Irish countryside. These monuments, around 5,000 years old, have been sites of ritual for millennia. Generation after generation, while spiritual beliefs changed, these ancient sites often remained sacred. In this podcast, I explore two of these tombs to understand how and why these mysterious tombs were built, and why humans return to particular landscapes over thousands of years.
My first (and possibly only) live show of 2024 takes place at the Cork Podcast Festival on September 6th. The show is on in the atmospheric St. Luke's Church, and I have a great night of history, interviews, and stories planned. Hopefully, I will see you there.
