The Celtic Supernatural Paperback / softback
by Michael Sheane
Paperback / softback
Description
The Celts believed that the supernatural pervaded their lives and surroundings.
Magic and the observance of rituals dominated their lives, and consequently their magician caste - the Druids - held a position in society above even kings.
The Druids' role was critical, providing a link between the Celtic people and the supernatural world.
Their rituals and observances were passed on orally.
Roman and early church historians considered them too barbarous or heathenish to merit detailed examination.
We turn therefore to the archaeological record, where, from an abundance of Celtic sites, from Ireland to La Tene, knowledge of their belief system continues to be added to.
