Learning about the Celts


I am a fan of Greek mythology and most mythologies in general.  Greek is the only one I know a lot about but I will pick up bits and pieces of different ancient cultures.  My favorite Greek god is Hermes, for he is the most mischievous of the gods and very cunning.  Because of this love of ancient mythologies, I bought a book about ancient Celtic mythology.  I’m not very far in the book however I am greatly enjoying it so far.  I decided that I needed a larger look at ancient religions other than just ancient Greece.  Originally when I went to the book store, I was looking for something about ancient Egyptian mythology but they didn’t have much so I kept looking in the history section and found Celtic Myths and Legends by Peter Barresford Ellis and thought I should learn about the Celts.

  1. Very interesting! I've always wanted to learn more Greek Mythology, mainly because its so popular in movies and books. I know who to come to when I have questions (besides Google).
