"For 5000 thousand years Tara was the sacred centre to the people of Ireland. During thoes years it is said to have been a burial site for our proto Irish people, a gateway to our spiritual otherworld, and the seat of over 140 High Kings. It features more prominently than any other site in our mythology, and has been the focus point for every major event in our political history up to the 12th Century. Through our countries darkest times in history, it has managed to remain untouched. For all that time Tara is said to have been, a burial site for our proto Irish people, a gateway to the spiritual otherworld, the seat of 142 High Kings. Even through our countries darkest times in history, it has managed to remain untouched. A message must be sent out, that there are many people in modern Ireland that still retain a great respect for this ancient site, Tara valley. Tara has been the political, ritual, and religious centre of Ireland. The High Kings held it sacred, as they believed their divine ancestors where buried in the earthen mounds around it. Even through our countries darkest times in history, the valley has managed to remain untouched. Tara, as it stands today, is a symbol of our unique collective history, heritage, and culture! Slave Zero and Era Vulgaris are both promoing their new albums. There are two busses coming from the North of Ireland A portion of the proceeds will go to support Camp 1 on the Hill of Tara the remainder go toward venue hire and upcoming Tarawatch album costs. |
