Our established impressions of early Celtic Ireland have come down to us through the great Irish myths & sagas, yet how do these images compare with archaeological evidence? The author seeks to present a comprehensive & lucid account of the Irish Iron Age. He discusses advances that took place in travel & transport; the common people; the local metalsmiths; & the religious beliefs exemplified by standing stones & offerings in lakes & rivers. New material is examined on Ireland`s contact with the Roman world & the final chapter reviews whether La Tene culture was spread to Ireland through invasion or diffusion. ...

Around three to five thousand years ago, an ancient people began building stone sites & monuments on the Channel Islands, creating a landscape as rich in mythology as any archaeological site in Greece or Egypt. Since early Christian times, the dolmens (stone chambers) & menhirs (single standing stones) have been reviled as the domain of witches, ghosts, & dragons. They were thought to bring bad luck & sudden death to all who came near. Yet they have also been cherished as sources of healing, female fertility, good harvests & buried treasure, as well as the dwelling place of friendly fairies. Despite the fact that these structures were seen as a threat by the Christian Church, which was determined to erase the Paganism of the past, a good number of them remain. The superstitions surrounding the dolmens & menhirs, in particular the dire consequences said to ensue following their destruction, have preserved many of them to this day. The authors recount the terrible fates which have befallen several Channel Islanders who have dared to disturb or destroy these ancient sites. Channel Island mythology is alive & well today, & surviving in local superstition, customs, poetry, art & folklore. ” The Pagan Channel Islands” uncovers & explores this mythology, & relates it to the ancient wisdom of the stones. It demonstrates that, with a little imagination & respect for our environment, we can bring the near-forgotten monsters, fairies & ghosts of our legendary past to life. ...
