Un des endroits les plus étranges d'Irlande - La chaussée des géants

A geological formation made of white basalt consisting of hexagonal pillars located at the northern tip of Northern Ireland, by the sea.

A lava flow dating back over 50 million years that cooled naturally, although the result may appear artificial or otherworldly.

The formations create a striking and impressive landscape, particularly stunning when moving clouds highlight the site's beauty.

The site covers considerable ground and has an extraordinary appearance evoking an impossible structure built by superhuman beings.

Multiple people participated in the project, including specialists from Ubisoft's inspirational department who provided access to numerous resources and experts.

• Linguists specialized in ancient languages • Historical experts on Irish history • Specialists in cultural and documentary resources

The research work took three to four years, not as the sole priority, but as foundational work to understand the full context.

The goal was not to produce a doctorate, but to gather research to inspire and contextualize staff creations.

• Finn mac Cumhaill, an Irish giant living in Ireland • Benandonner, a Scottish giant living in Scotland

The Scottish giant insulted his Irish rival by calling him neglectful and a coward, until the Irish giant, stung by pride, challenged him to combat to prove his strength.

The Irish giant builds a causeway by throwing stones into the sea to create a passable path between Scotland and Ireland to face his opponent.

Facing the approaching Scottish giant, the Irish giant panics realizing the size difference. His wife disguises him as a baby, and the Scottish giant, terrified at the thought of the father's size, flees by dismantling the causeway behind him.

• The Irish and Scottish shared very similar culture and mythology • The two peoples were closely connected and intermarried • Irish and Scottish myths and cosmologies are remarkably alike

Scottish culture emerged from a blend of Gaelic culture and the Picts who inhabited these lands, creating a unique cultural identity.

Irish and Scottish Gaelic are very close and stemmed from the same linguistic tradition, reflecting the cultural unity of these peoples.

The actual Giant's Causeway site has many small holes in the rock that make it a paradise for birds, with remarkable biodiversity to discover.
