Who knows what the priest of Empire-Rome is?

Reverend Druid is a very advanced Celtic priest, mage or prophet. Celtic was a barbarian scattered in Gaul, England, Ireland, Europe, Asia Minor and the Balkans from the 5th century BC to the 1 century AD.

Druid rituals and teachings are very mysterious, and are traditionally taught orally. Therefore, although it has been studied and explored through the ages, it is still poorly understood. Most of the information about them comes from ancient Greek and Roman literature. In addition, archaeologists can only occasionally find some tiny clues from the remains of forests, shrines and temples, such as pictures and marks. The earliest record of Druidism in history books is mainly found in Julia.

Druid priests are proficient in divination, meticulous in rituals, good at calendars, medicine, astronomy and literature ... At the same time, they are also synonymous with law enforcers, bards and explorers. Both men and women can become druid priests and enjoy a high status in society. Some historians equate druid priests with Brahmins, Magi, priests and shamans in India. During the festival, the priest druid harvested acorns on the sixth day of the full moon, but in the process, acorns could not fall to the ground and were wrapped in pure white cloth. Then sacrifice two white bulls and hold a banquet. They will also sacrifice the living. Usually, these animals are prisoners, but if not, they will choose among civilians. The victim was either burned alive in a wooden cage, pierced by a stake, stabbed to death by a sharp weapon, or shot to death by a random arrow ... or executed the most sacred "triple death" (only those who were elected as the Druid Prince can accept this ceremony, and the deceased usually accepted it voluntarily). First, the victim was stunned with an axe, and then quickly strangled with a rope made of three animal muscles, while cutting his throat. They were finally drowned, and the last food the sacrificed animals ate before they died was baked barley cake sprinkled with acorns ... It was the cruel sacrifice of these living people that angered the Roman regime and accelerated their demise. Later, some scholars excused the priest Druid, but as a senior priest, it seems difficult to get away with it ... In the process of prediction, the priest Druid often used crows, eagles and other birds and animals to predict good or bad luck. Sometimes, predictions are made by observing the throat and internal organs of animals. When the festival comes, the druid priest will hold a ceremony to hypnotize people, then exchange souls, and then predict the future with dreams.

History books also record the magic used by some Druid priests, such as casting illusions and amulets with herbs and acorns; Magic eggs soaked in the saliva of angry snakes can control others, and so on ... Druids also believe in the eternity of the soul, which is a bit like reincarnation. After the death of their loved ones, they would burn all the belongings of the deceased together, and even jump into the fire to hold their loved ones' bodies and share the blessings with their loved ones ... They would also write letters to the deceased and even increase the amount of payment so that the other party could repay them after death ... Around 1 century, the Roman Empire was afraid of the Celtics' strength and made a large-scale crusade against them. Tacitus once recorded that in the battle, the druids dressed in black jumped in the Celtic army, growled the names of the gods and cursed the Roman Empire severely. After the victory of Rome, not only all Celtic soldiers were slaughtered, but also druids were bloodbath, and their priests' bodies were abandoned in the sacred forest of druids ... This battle made druids fall apart in the following centuries, and their strength and status were no different from ordinary wizards in the following generations ... Until 16 and 17 centuries, druidism still existed only in folk mountains. John Oberli, a British archaeologist, pointed out that druidism in Roman times may contain some older beliefs. According to legend, they built the famous Stonehenge (a huge prehistoric stone pillar group on the Salisbury Plain in England, similar to the stone pillar group in Act 1) to worship the sun god! Although his statement was wrong, the revival movement of Druids finally began in the18th century.

In A.D. 17 17, William Stokery and john toland, known as priests of Druidism, rebuilt Druidism, and later Henry Holly restored its ancient dogma and made it a charity similar to * * *. Interestingly, the druid order in the United States was established for a completely different purpose. 1963, the North American Innovative Druid Order was established, but it was only because a group of college students in carleton college, Northfield, Minnesota opposed the school's forcing students to participate in religious services. Later, the organization developed into a Druid cult advocating new pagan beliefs, which has developed to this day.
