Sobre IBD

First published in 2005. This study of Celtic Prehistory explores all facets of Druidic life and religious practice: their beginnings in the first centuries B.C. in Gaul and Britain, their priests and religious rites, their temples and probable origins. Drawing on numerous classical and modern sources, the author creates a fascinating picture of Druidic society. Useful illustrations and an appendix of original Greek and Latin texts relating to the Druids are included
