Live Irish Myths episode 25: The mythology of Knowth and Dowth

Description:
In today's episode of Live Irish Myths, I discuss the Dinshenchas mythology about the great Brú na Bóinne monuments of Knowth and Dowth. Often overshadowed by their more illustrious sister, Síd in Broga/Newgrange, these two have interesting stories about them and I will look at some of the astronomy and cosmology underlying these ancient place-name legends.
