Ireland's prehistoric past has long captivated historians and archaeologists alike, due to its rich tapestry of ancient cultures and civilisation. Its landscape, dotted with mysterious stone structures and ancient burial sites, speaks volumes about the lives of those who once inhabited this island. Recent discoveries have further illuminated our understanding of Ireland's prehistoric past, unearthing ancient settlements, casting light on burial practices, revealing the secrets of stone circles and megaliths, and examining the artefacts and tools used by early societies. This essay seeks to explore these new discoveries and their implications for our understanding of prehistoric Ireland. Unearthing Ancient Settlements Significance of these discoveries The discovery of ancient settlements in Ireland has reshaped our knowledge of the island’s early inhabitants. Archaeological excavations have uncovered evidence of early human activity dating back to the Mesolithic period, around 8...

All that was fought for is gone They changed the law so they could give it away See what they've done Now its all gone No more resources There dirty deals done Pockets lined envelopes given Jailed for corruption but still its all gone No thoughts given for those yet to come Now our old Huddling in the cold All hope has gone The treacherous government Lost the right to remain What to do Tear it all down Author: Patrick Conlan A land of beauty, of poetry, of warm smiles and even warmer welcomes.  But beneath this idyllic facade, a rot has set in.A cancer of corruption eats away at the heart of our nation.  The very people entrusted to safeguard our future, our elected officials, have betrayed us.They line their pockets while our hospitals crumble. Our elderly shiver in homes they can no longer afford to heat.  This is not the Ireland we know. This is not the Ireland we deserve. This is not the Ireland our martyrs died for. A Nation Betrayed The Price of Corruption Billions,...

The Provisional IRA launched a campaign against  the Brits, while the Official IRA took a defensive stance.Enter Brian Faulkner, the Prime Minister of Northern Ireland.On August 5, 1971, he pitches a idea to British Prime Minister Edward Heath- reintroduce internment.The goal? To weaken the IRA and prevent a loyalist backlash. The British cabinet had a few balancing actions in mind, like arresting loyalist militants and banning parades.But Faulkner wasn’t having it.

How Irish Nationalism Shaped History The Agricultural Depression of the Late 1870s The late eighteen seventies witnessed a period of profound agricultural distress in Ireland.A series of disastrous harvests, coupled with falling crop prices, plunged rural communities into poverty and despair.The potato blight, which had ravaged the island in the eighteen forties, cast a long shadow over this new crisis.Irish farmers, heavily reliant on potato cultivation, faced ruin as their crops failed year after year.This agricultural depression had far-reaching consequences for Irish society.Tenant farmers, already burdened by high rents and insecure land tenure, found themselves unable to meet their obligations.Evictions became increasingly common, forcing families from their homes and into destitution.Resentment against landlords, often perceived as indifferent to the plight of their tenants, grew steadily.The land, a source of both livelihood and cultural identity for generations of Irish famili...

The Untold History Of Irish Slavery  The Dawn of the Irish Slave Trade The story of the Irish slave trade is a harrowing journey through the depths of human cruelty.It is a tale often overshadowed by the larger narrative of the transatlantic slave trade,yet it stands as a chilling testament to the brutality of colonialism and religious persecution.The seeds of this dark chapter were sown in the aftermath of the Battle of Kinsale in sixteen oh one.The defeat of the Irish and their Spanish allies marked a turning point in Irish history,solidifying English control over the island and ushering in an era of ruthless oppression.Thousands of Irish soldiers, captured in the wake of the battle, became the first victims of this burgeoning trade.Deemed enemies of the Crown and heretics by the Protestant English, these prisoners of war were stripped of their rights and shipped across the Atlantic.Their destination- the fledgling colonies of the New World, where they would toil as slaves in the...

  The Great Tax Treadmill  Ever feel like you're stuck in a hamster wheel of taxes?You work hard, earn money, and boom—the taxman takes a cut.But it doesn't stop there, does it?You spend that hard-earned cash, and guess what? Taxed again!It's enough to make anyone wonder, Is this a system or a scam? Taxed From the Get-Go Let's start with the obvious—income tax.Every time that paycheque lands in your account,the government takes its share before you even see it.Whether you're a high-flying executive or just starting out,a chunk of your earnings goes straight to funding public services. Sounds fair, right?Well, hold on, because it's about to get more complicated. Spending? Taxed Again! Here's the kicker Remember that money you earned, the one that you already got taxed on?.Well, when you spend it, you're hit with more taxes.Buying a new phone?  Tax man, says hello.Fuelling the car? duty wants a piece of the action.It's like the government is saying, We...

“Everyone, Republican or otherwise has their own particular part to play. No part is too great or too small, no one is too old or too young to do something.” Bobby Sands on hunger strike in 1981  Fucked over by "we ourselves"  Our martyrs died for what To make millionaire's of the tractor slibhins who come  Irish Republicans had worked for the Irish people invite the world now  treat natives like scum We ourselves have abandoned republicanism  There is another way but not through them

 Ireland in nineteen twenty was a nation teetering on the brink.The Irish War of Independence, a brutal guerrilla conflict, raged between the Irish Republican Army and British forces.The IRA, fighting for complete independence, employed guerrilla tactics against the better-equipped British Army.The British government, determined to maintain control over Ireland, deployed various forces to quell the rebellion.Among them were the black and tans, a ruthless paramilitary police force notorious for its brutality against Irish civilians.The Auxiliary Division, composed of former British Army officers, also gained a reputation for ruthlessness.Tensions escalated throughout nineteen twenty.The IRA, led by Michael Collins' intelligence network, targeted British intelligence operatives.The British responded with harsh reprisals, further inflaming the situation.This cycle of violence set the stage for a day that would forever be etched in Irish history-Bloody Sunday. November twenty-first, ni...

A Journey Beyond the Horizon. Death, The word itself hangs heavy in the air, a weight that seems to press down on us all.We associate it with loss, with grief, with the finality of a slamming door.But what if death, instead of being an ending, is really a beginning?What if it's not a full stop, but a comma, a pause before a new sentence begins?Our ancestors, those who came before us and walked this earth under ancient skies, often saw it this way.They believed that death was not the end of existence, but a transition to another realm, a continuation of the journey of the soul.In their wisdom, they understood that life and death were two sides of the same coin, inseparable and intertwined.This belief, far from being a quaint superstition, offered comfort and hope.It allowed them to face their own mortality and the passing of loved ones with a degree of acceptance and even anticipation.It whispered that the story didn't end with the last breath, but simply shifted to a new chapte...

The burning of Cork by British forces, took place during the Irish War of Independence on the night of 11th and 12th of December 1920.  The black and tans and british soldiers burned homes in the city, before looting and burning numerous buildings in the centre of Cork, Ireland's third-biggest city...  Many Irish civilians reported being beaten, shot at, and robbed by British forces.  Firefighters testified that British forces hindered their attempts to tackle the blazes by intimidation, cutting their hoses and shooting at them.  Two unarmed Irish men were also shot dead at their home in the north of the city. More than 40 business premises, 300 residential properties, the City Hall and Carnegie Library were destroyed by fires, many of which were started by British forces using incendiary bombs.  The economic damage was estimated at over £3 million (equivalent to approximately 150 million in 2022), while 2,000 were left jobless and many more became homeless...
