Some places on our planet are so amazing that legends have been made about them for millennia. According to one of the legends, earlier on Earth there was a race of giants, which I love to talk about in my articles. It may be rather strange, but there is plenty of evidence that giants are not just a beautiful fairy tale, but could actually live on Earth.
Interestingly, according to some scientists, gigantism in the past was characteristic not only of living things, but also of plants, insects and people. The reason for this could be a different composition of the planet's atmosphere, in which a small size meant a small chance of survival.
Some of the ancient buildings are so majestic that people certainly could not build them, and there are traces of such ancient buildings in many countries. Huge stone blocks weighing several tons, which people could hardly lift, because they did not possess the technologies of our time. But there are wonders of the world that are difficult to understand, and one of them is the "Island of Columns". Either nature skillfully did its job, or the giants of antiquity could build this miracle, but let's talk about everything in order.
Fingal's Cave is located on the Scottish island of Staffa. The height of the ancient temple is about 20 meters, and the width is only about 14. People who have fallen into the cave note that it is like an ancient temple built using amazing technology. This place is often called the melody cave, because you can hear amazing sounds of nature in it, as if the natural philharmonic society invited you to its free concert.
The secret lies in the basalt columns, which look so amazing that you begin to doubt the natural formation of these columns, maybe that's why legends about giants appeared, that people do not believe that the columns could have appeared naturally? But let's return to the legend, in which we are told about the amazing giant Fingal, who lay down to rest before his next fight. Up to this point, he has erected a unique king between Ireland and Scotland, in which there were thousands of such columns.
The giant's rival came to a duel to the cave, and the war was met by Fingal's wife, who pointed to her husband wrapped in blankets and said that this was their baby. The words of the giant's wife frightened the other giant so much that he imagined his rival, whose height could exceed his height several times. Then he decided to escape from the place of the battle, destroying the dam behind him so that Fingal would not catch up with him.
