  • Summary

  • The stories in this series of podcasts are indisputable truths on the evolution of the Irish. However, all history of ancient times is to a greater or lesser extent hearsay, since the method of passing on the stories before writing began, was to incorporate them in tales and ballads which were told and sung at every gathering of the various Clans, passed on as legend in this manner from one generation to the next. Eventually, whichever version survived was available for scribes and historians to document when written records began to be compiled. Myth or Legend, this was no different for the old Gaelic and Milesian people on the Island of Ireland, before the advent of successive foreign invasions, which were numerous and varied and you will get a thorough account of the evolution of the Irish in this series, called ‘’Land of the Golden Sunset’’
