	Celtic mythology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Celtic mythology is the mythology of Celtic polytheism, apparently the religion of the Iron Age Celts.
		In contrast, those Celtic peoples who maintained either their political or linguistic identities (such as the Gaels and Brythonic tribes of the British Isles) did transmit at least vestigial remnants of the mythologies of their Iron Age forebears, which were often recorded in written form during the Middle Ages.
		Lug is described in the Celtic myths as a latecomer to the list of deities, and is usually described as having the appearance of a young man. His weapons were the throwing-spear and sling, and in Ireland a festival called the Lughnasa (Modern Irish lúnasa) was held in his honour.

	Celtic Ray/St. Bridget
		According to the surviving mythology, the goddess Brigid was a powerful deity and the patroness of healing arts, fertility, poetry and music, prophecy and agriculture.
		Her exact mythological role is confusing: in many myths she is the daughter of the great Celtic god the Dagda, but she is also commonly equated with the much older Danu, the mother of the earlier Celtic gods the Tuatha de Dannan.
		As Christianity spread through the Celtic lands, many properties of the older religion were Christianized rather than eliminated, and this was so true of the Brigids that it is now impossible to tell where the goddess ends and the saint begins.
