Multiple groups of people with origins in central europe in 1000bce. They went through many phases and consisted of many groups with similar characteristics. Religious caste (druids) romans (caesar) proves this. Looked at a battered sea shield (england 3rd cen. ) Bronze mirror, great lore, spiral, animal interlaced design, knot work. Looked at the book of kells (ireland) muredach"s knight, arnagh chalice. Beltane (03/01)- fertility; celebration of the new harvest. Sanhain (11/01)- end of pastoral year, passage to the other world- all saints day. Noble woman of early medieval time- nun- began a convent. Monks were hoarding culture so it is unclear to determine. Cauldron myth (holy grail) more celtic (all with different qualities) Wounded king figure- linked to land"s health- foot and groin affected decreased fertility of land: fisher king and king arthur.
