  In The 1930s, Irish schoolchildren were tasked with asking their oldest relatives and neighbours about stories and superstitions from times past so that ordinary people's lives could be preserved and celebrated. What those schoolchildren wrote in their copybooks resulted in the National Folklore Archive's Schools' Collection, and this book contains a selection of its best stories. With chapters on ghost stories, agriculture, forgotten trades, schooling and pastimes, this is a people's history of Ireland.
  There are incredible stories of self-sufficiency from an era when everything on the table was homemade. Discover how people survived on flour, milk and potatoes, and how fabric, dye, soap and candles were made by hand. There are delightful memories of childhoods spent outdoors, gathering nuts and berries, playing Tig and fishing; while stories of folk remedies reveal how wellbeing in Ireland had long been a heady potion of miraculous medals, doctors, healers, holy wells and pilgrimages.
  With each chapter introduced and contextualised in John Creedon's inimitable voice, this beautiful treasury of tales is a stunning tribute to ordinary Irish people and how they lived long ago.

  History of Colombia - An...

  Colombia’s history is marked by a rich tapestry of indigenous cultures and societies, which laid the foundations for the diverse nation that exists today. Long before the Spanish arrived in 1492, the region was home to advanced civilizations such as the Muisca Confederation, the Quimbaya Civilization, and the Tairona Chiefdoms. These indigenous groups thrived in Colombia's varied geography, establishing complex societies with sophisticated agricultural practices, intricate trade networks, and elaborate spiritual beliefs. 
  The Spanish conquest of the Americas brought significant change to the region. Following Christopher Columbus's arrival in the Caribbean, Spanish explorers began their colonization efforts. In 1538, the Spanish established Bogotá, which became the capital of the Viceroyalty of New Granada. This vast colonial territory included what is now Colombia, Ecuador, Panama, and Venezuela. The Spanish imposed their rule over the indigenous peoples, exploiting both the land and the labor of native communities, which would profoundly shape the future of the region.
