The Round Towers of Ireland; or, The History of the Tuath-De-Danaans

"The Round Towers of Ireland; or, The History of the Tuath-De-Danaans" by Henry O'Brien is a historical exploration that seeks to unravel the mysteries surrounding Ireland's ancient round towers, proposing they are linked to the Tuath-de-Danaans, a magical race from Irish myth. O'Brien disputes the conventional view that these towers are Christian in origin, arguing instead for a pre-Christian, pagan connection rooted in Eastern spiritual practices and architectural styles. He builds his case by examining historical records, Irish folklore, and the symbolism embedded in the towers' design to demonstrate their deep cultural and spiritual importance, as well as their place in the history of Ireland.
