IRELAND PROJECT


The Giant's Causeway

The legend tells giants, one from Ireland (Finn) and another from Staffa (Bennandoner), who got along very badly and continuously threw rocks. And Finn made a bridge with very resistant rocks and step on the other side tantirar rocks formed a c. The Scottish giant decided to pass the path of rocks and defeat his adversary, as he was stronger than the other. The wife of the Irish giant (Oonagh) saw how the Scottish giant came, so she decided to dress her husband as a baby. When the Scots arrived and saw that the baby was so big, he thought that his father would be triple as big, so he fled stomping the rocks, so that they would sink into the sea and that the other giant could not reach Staffa. There are many versions of the legend. The other version tells that Finn Mac Cool and Benandonner were friends and together they built a bridge of stones.
