- Celtic mythology originated from various Celtic groups including the Gaels, Gauls, Britons, Irish and Galatians between the 7th-3rd centuries BC.
- Irish mythology is recorded in texts like The Book of Invasions which describes a sequence of groups who invaded Ireland and displaced earlier tribes like the Partholonians, Nemedians, Fir Bolg, and Tuatha De Danann.
- The Tuatha De Danann were a tribe of gods who were equivalent to the Greek Olympians. Prominent gods included Dagda, Brigid, Angus Og, Nuada, and Lugh. Mythological figures and the Otherworld also feature prominently in Celtic mythology

Lecture 17 Barbarians the Germanic tribes and the Norseme.docxsmile790243
Lecture 17 Barbarians: the Germanic tribes and the Norsemen
The Germanic and the Norse mythologies are very similar and they reflect the harsh
environment and the fierce fighters that these people were. These are the people that the Romans
called barbarians; that’s where the word comes from. The very sophisticated Romans feared the
barbarians, who were actually able to bring down the entire Roman Empire. These are the Vikings, a
different group, because they not only were able to trade and went from Scandinavian countries all the
way down to North Africa and had trading ventures with the Muslim states, but at the same time they
were pillaging the coastlines of Europe and the Brit ish Isles. They had settled Iceland. You talk about
global warming. At the time that the Vikings were heading out, Greenland was actually green and for 75
years, the Vikings had established a community there in this very rich environment until the ice
returned. An entire village is caught under 20, 30, 40, 50 feet of snow and is now being excavated. The
Vikings even went further on, using Greenland as a base probably, and went to Nova Scotia or in that
area and established communities there. These wer e a wide ranging people who believed that the gods
were there as protectors and the gods were there as helpers, but when it came down to brass tacks,
these people believed that a person controlled his own destiny. You tried to do your best, you asked for
help, but then you play the cards, the hand, that you are dealt.
Another interesting side note about Viking culture is that generally in all the Germanic tribes,
and they were mostly tribes and clans, the succession of leader went to the strongest, the f ittest, and
the bravest. But, when some of the Vikings became extremely wealthy with their trading particularly
with the Muslims in North Africa, they wanted to keep that money within their own families, so they
changed the succession so that it went from father to son, rather than strongest to strongest. It is
interesting to note that in some of these clans where the succession had changed, the entire culture fell
apart within a couple of generations.
Even our days of the week remind us of the Norse go ds. For instance, Thor’s Day, Thursday.
Thor was the god of thunder, and the most powerful god. It is interesting that he was not the leader of
the family of gods, but by far the most powerful one. He had a magic hammer, Mjollnir, that every time
he threw it, it would return to him. Freya’s Day, Friday. Freya being the goddess of fertility and love ,
the most beautiful of all the goddesses. And Wodin’s Day, Wednesday. Wodin is also known as Odin,
depending on the pronunciation and spelling of the lo cality where it comes from. Odin was actually the
leader of the gods, the one who was able to keep the family, the loose confederation, of the gods
together. He was a one-eyed god and it is not often that we hav ...

Editor's Notes
The Celts were a European cultural group first evident in the 7th or 8th century B.C. The Romans called them Galli and the Greeks called them Keltoi-- both meaning barbarians. Their maximum expansion was in the 3rd to 5th century B.C., when they occupied much of Europe north of the Alps (see maps). The Celts arrived in Britain by the 4th or 5th century B.C. and Ireland by the 2nd or 3rd century B.C., and possibly earlier, displacing an earlier people who were already on the islands. The Gaels, Gauls, Britons, Irish, and Gallations were all Celtic people. The Celts were a European cultural group first evident in the 7th or 8th century B.C.

Great undertakings of Milesians and Danann began at Beltane
Lir was the lord of the sea. He had a wife and four children. When Lir’s wife died, he married his wife’s sister, Aoife. Aoife was jealous of Lir’s children and wanted to be rid of them. One day Aoife took the children to a lake. While they were swimming she performed a spell on them and turned them into swans. Under the spell the children were to remain swans until they heard the sound of a Christian bell. The swans swam from lake, to river to stream for years waiting for the sound of that bell, but it wasn’t until St. Patrick came to Ireland that the children could be free of the curse- 900 years later.Read more: http://www.toptenz.net/top-10-irish-myths-and-legends.php#ixzz2PAbFynZJ
Any one remember another god we’ve studied who lost a hand? (Tyr – Norse)
Gatekeeper at Tara story only gets in with a talent (multi-talented) Summer's end. Lugh dies and passes to the underworld. The Celts put out their home hearth fire and re-lit with the village's communal fire. Boundaries to the other world are temporarily suspended--spirits can mix with the living. Masks must be worn so the spirits won't recognize. Festival of Samhain celebrated Oct. 31. Sound familiar?
Rhiannon also ushered the dead into the afterlife which sometimes was also attributed to Eponia but it wasn’t her primary function.
Who is another one-eyed giant? (Cyclopes) Balor was to be killed by his grandson. To avoid his fate, he locked his daughter, Ethlinn, in a tower made of crystal to keep her from becoming pregnant. However, Cian, one of the TuathaDéDanann, managed to enter the tower with the help of the druidessBirog. Ethlinn gave birth to triplets by him, but Balor threw them into the ocean. Birog saved one, Lugh, and gave him to Manannan mac Lir, who became his foster father. He was called LughLamhfada and became a member of the TuathaDéDanann.Anyone remember which Greek hero was prophesied to kill his own grandfather and was thrown with his mother into the sea? (Persues) –Lug killed him with a slingshot and stone (another familiar tale)
Anybody remember another talking head prophet from Norse mythology? Bran was a giant who sister Branwen was married to Irish king Mathowich. Their brother Efnissyen objected to the marriage killed all Mathwich’s horses. Bran, to make ammends gave Mathowich a magic cauldron of rebirth. which would allow him to resurrect the dead. Efmissyn continue to cause lots of trouble killing Mathowich’s men Once they had a son, Bathowich banished Branwen to the kitchen but pretended to love her to Bran’s face. Efnissyn found out and killed the child. A battle ensued but the troops kept resurrecting so Efnyssen destroyed the cauldron which led to his death. Bran was also injured and talked his troops into taking hishead and returning it to Britain. The head continued to give prophecies and was eventually buried under the Tower of London where it was to protect Britain and did until Arthur became too prideful and dug it up declaring his prowess in battle was enough protection.

One popular story tells of a salmon that knew all of the world’s knowledge. Finn decided to eat the Salmon to gain the knowledge. As he was cooking the fish, juice squirted out and burned Finn’s thumb. Finn stuck his thumb in his mouth to stop the pain and instantly learned the knowledge the salmon carried.
