Renaissance Era, Folk and Celtic Musical Instruments | Gentle Maiden by Ivory Celtic Religion - what information do we really have From: Raimund KARL (a8700035@unet.univie.ac.at) To: CELTIC-L@DANANN.HEA.IE Subject: Celtic Religion - what information do we really have - Part 1-7 Date: Sun, 1 Dec 1996 10:54:40 - Tue, 10 Dec 1996 15:20:01 To begin with, lets first look at the sources available to us: There are quite numerous sources available, contrary to the usual belief that there is almost nothing actually there. First, there are the archaeological sources. These are the only direct source for the prehistoric part of the religion we are talking about. Second, there are the epigraphic sources, i.e. inscriptions. Most of those are from the time of the Roman occupation and as such their use is partly limited, however, some are autochthonous and pre-Roman (mainly such from Southern Gaul and Spain). Third, there are the historical sources from the diverse Roman authors. Fifth, we have the folk traditions in the countries which still are "Celtic".

IRISH SONG LYRICS Guide to pronounciation of Irish mythic names & places - The Druid Grove Hi all - I'm posting this as reference info and will add to it as time goes on. These are the approximate pronounciations of Irish place names and person names found in the myth tales and in history/geography. The pronounciations given are those of a somewhat "normalized" Gaeilge ie. without applying each variant stress of word sound in their various dialectic forms (Ulster, Munster, Connacht Irish). These names are given according to my "Leinster" gaelic! Names on the left are Irish ones, words on the right are the approximate english phonetic pronounciation thereof, followed by an explanation of the name. Approximate Old Irish pronunciations are given where appropriate, bearning in mind that it's quite hard to represent sounds of a Celtic Irish language in non-Celtic English language because one does not have the same sounds in English as in Irish for all letters and combinations thereof. best regardsBeith Aonghus – "ane-ius" “ane-gus” (variant spelling of above) Mumhan - "Muv-an", mod."
Direct Democracy Ireland Irish culture and Irish customs - World Cultures European Gaol Naofa | Gaelic Polytheism » A Beginner’s Guide to Old Irish Pronunciation A Beginner’s Guide to Old Irish Pronunciation by Annie Loughlin. Do not reprint without permission. Before Old Irish there was Archaic Irish (alternatively known as “Primitive Irish”), or Gaeilge Ársa, which is found on some of the earliest ogham inscriptions that survive in Ireland. Old Irish, or Sengoídelc, evolved from Archaic Irish, and it is the language that was spoken in Ireland from around the seventh to the tenth centuries C.E. A lot of the literature you will probably end up reading – whether it’s the myths or more academic literature that talks about them, or some of our articles and pages here – will default to the Old Irish spellings a lot of the time. The Basics The pronunciation of Old Irish can be very different when we compare it with modern Irish (or Scottish Gaelic, or Manx, which are also Goidelic languages), so things can get a little confusing sometimes. In Old Irish, the pronunciation of a letter can be affected by a number of factors, but the main ones are: Letters
