Introduction
W elcome to Irish Mythology.com. Irish Myth and Legend is made up of many stories and sagas of great adventures, love stories and fierce battles that have been handed down orally through time by the ancient peoples of Ireland. The coming of christianity brought great change to Ireland and its people at the time and enabled those ancient tales to be written down for the first time.
Irish Mythology is made up of three sections or cycles, The Mythological cycle, Ulster cycle and The Fenian cycle.
Today traces of these ancient people can be seen throughout the Landscape of Ireland like Megalithic Tombs Ring Forts Dolmens Stone Circles
Throughout this Irish Mythology site you will find related maps, drawings, photos, Illustrations and Diagrams of interesting places to visit, there are also links to other sites concerning Irish Mythology.

Mythology of Ireland Irish Mythology Dagda's Harp The Faerie Kings The Human Hounds ... Saint Patrick The Irish mythological cycle can be divided into four major divisions. The first is the historical-mythological cycle. Two important texts are part of this cycle: the Leabhar Gahbala (Book of Invasions), a mythological history of Ireland; and the Dinnshenchas (History of Places), a mythological geography of Ireland. The main theme in the historical-mythological cycle concerns the peopling of Ireland and the fortunes of the Tuatha De Danann (People of the Goddess Danann), who were the mythological ancestors of the Irish. The Tuatha are described as demigods; they are beautiful people, possessed with skill in music and the arts. They are always spoken about within a context of fabulous magical powers and wonders, which define the essence of their manifestation. A central theme in the myth of the Tuatha is that of the Second Battle of Mag Tuired. During the First Battle of Mag Tuired the king of the Tuatha, Nuada, is wounded. Because he is now physically blemished, he can no longer serve as king. The kingship is then given to his adopted son, Bres. Bres's father is a king of the Fomoire, a group of people with whom Nemed and his people had fought in previous times. Bres's mother, Eriu, is, however, a Tuatha. The choice of Bres is apparently an attempt to accomplish an alliance between the Tuatha and the Fomoire.

Mythical Ireland 101 Facts About Newgrange 1 Newgrange is one of the best examples in Ireland and in Western Europe, of a type of monument known to archaeologists as a passage-grave or passage-tomb. 2 It was constructed around 3200BC, according to the most reliable Carbon 14 dates available from archaeology. This makes it more than 600 years older than the Giza Pyramids in Egypt, and 1,000 years more ancient than Stonehenge.

"To acknowledge our ancestors means we
are aware that we did not make ourselves...
That the line stretches all the way back to God, or to gods...
We remember them because it is an easy thing to forget;
that we are not the first to suffer, rebel, fight, love and die..." f you're wondering about the title of my web site, it derives its name from the original "Magennis Castle"; Dundrum Castle , in County Down, built by the Anglo-Norman John deCourcy and his invading army in the year 1177, and captured from them by my ancestors a hundred years or so after its completion.The castle changed hands many times over the centuries, during which the Magennises were in occupation for quite a significant period. It was finally made uninhabitable in the 17th century by the infamous Oliver Cromwell and his "roundhead" army, and gradually fell into ruins thereafter. All that's left of the castle today is a large part of the circular central keep and some portions of the outer curtain wall which surrounded it in the past.

Irish mythology
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
The mythology of pre-Christian Ireland did not entirely survive the conversion to Christianity , but much of it was preserved, shorn of its religious meanings, in medieval Irish literature , which represents the most extensive and best preserved of all the branches of Celtic mythology . Although many of the manuscripts have failed to survive, and much more material was probably never committed to writing, there is enough remaining to enable the identification of four distinct, if overlapping, cycles: the Mythological Cycle , The Ulster Cycle , the Fenian Cycle and the Historical Cycle . There are also a number of extant mythological texts that do not fit into any of the cycles. In addition, there are a large number of recorded folk tales that, while not strictly mythological, feature personages from one or more of these four cycles.

Some of this is Scots as much as Irish. Perhaps it would be better placed in Celtic or Gaelic mythology. Derek Ross Pre-christion Ireland and Scotland were a single cultural region, (in fact the term "Scot" was originally applied to people in Ireland), so yes this stuff probably should be moved somewhere more general. Probably Gaelic mythology is the place to put it rather than Celtic mythology (on the assumption that Welsh and Breton mythology is sufficiently different). Eob I think there will probably need to be a sort out at some point. But this was really put up (with the move to the PHP bracketed solution firmly in mind) so that precisely these sorts of issues could be addressed. Once we get brackets we can do this such that we can split the different implementations of the various Celtic deities by ethnicity e.g. [Lugh (Breton Celtic deity)], [Lugh (Britannic Celtic deity)], [Lugh (Irish Celtic deity)] etc. sjc Some of these stories are not religious in nature. Many of them continued past the Christianization of Ireland and were accepted as historical or folk tales. This page should not be renamed 'stories of the Irish religion' it would be akin to describing Paul Bunyan as part of the American religion.
But exactly the same thing can be said about the Bible. And yet LMS still moved
