reppin’ nature (David O’Connor)
Welcome to reppin’ nature! This channel reflects my passion for nature and the ancients.
My obsession with the ancients and prehistory came as a direct result of spending time in nature. I have a connection to nature, especially rock formations and megalithic sites. I’ve experienced the unexplainable first hand and this has put me on a journey to learn to feel these stones, ancient sites, nature and their energy.
My approach to megalith hunting is experiential. My perspective and beliefs on megaliths is from on the ground experience and from connecting with the land and the stones. I believe megaliths are functional energetic places, built with intent, connected with the Earth and designed for survival and the continuation of life.
I hope you are able to join me on my journey and subscribe to reppin’ nature.
Cheers,
David

A few photos from Anta-Capela de Alcobertas in Santarém, Portugal.
A dolmen converted and repurposed as a chapel. This converted dolmen can be found inside the Igreja de Santa Maria Madalena (Church of Saint Mary Magdalene). You can access the dolmen from inside the church. The church dates back to the 16th century.
We have a few dolmens like this in Portugal which have been repurposed as Christian chapels.
A perfect example of repurposing an ancient and sacred site to suit the people of that particular time. I’ll share a video soon.
Below are links to videos I’ve shared of other dolmens in Portugal which have been converted to Christian monuments.

NEW VIDEO | The Stone Circle No One Visits | Loch Seaforth, Isle of Lewis
Loch Seaforth Stone Circle sits in one of the most remote and remarkable landscapes on the Isle of Lewis and yet very few people ever visit it.
What strikes me most about this site isn’t just its location but the shapes of the stones themselves. They aren’t random. Some echo forms I’ve seen at Callanish II and Callanish VIII, suggesting a shared way of selecting and placing stone across the wider landscape.
This video is a walk through the site, the landscape, and the observations that come from spending time here.
The setting is truly remarkable.

What were megaliths really built for?
I’ve recently shared a video which is my understanding of why our ancient ancestors built these structures.
You can watch it here: https://youtu.be/s82bhgMsRCI?si=EWKRj...

I’m very happy and grateful to be megalith hunting today!
It’s been a rough few weeks so it’s been great to be out in nature. This is my therapy. It nourishes my soul. I feel very present, connected and energised.
I’ve spent this morning exploring caves and dolmens with Gaia. This is Gruta da Lapa do Suão in the Bombarral region of Portugal. This cave has had human activity for thousands of years.
I’ve been in a few caves this morning. I don’t know why but I am drawn to these remote, dark, ancient, deep underground and enclosed spaces. Anyone else spent there Sunday morning in a cave?!
I took a headlamp but in some of the caves when I reached the bottom I would switch off the torch and sit in silence in the darkness for a while, breathe, be present and listen.
It’s a deep sensory experience for me it’s hard to explain. The silence I experience I’ve referred to it before as a “silence beyond silence”.
Have you watched my new film yet?
‘The Forgotten Purpose of Megaliths’ is now live.
If you have a chance please watch the film and leave us a wee comment. Cheers
