Ancient Druids Show And Tell?
Could it be the ancient Druids are going public?
Last month in Stanway, England, archaeologists uncovered what is thought to be the first Druid grave ever found. According to a report published in the journal British Archaeology, the contents of a wooden burial chamber dating to 40-60 A.D. included a wine warmer, cremated human remains, a cloak pinned with broaches, divining rods, surgical instruments, a strainer last used to brew a tea containing the herb artemesia and other objects suggestive of the Druids.
Since theirs was an oral tradition, not much is known about their specific practices.
