Not sure where JSTOR is going with some of its comments but the link between the gods can be found by the way they are described in legend from Egypt to Babylon, the cults moved, had a travel network that actually began with the aboriginals in Australia.. that ancient people were discovered to have the DNA sequence of early mankind that left the area that 'lucy' was found.. the land was different, you could walk to Australia, as time passed they became isolated, and as you see in Australia there is alot of desert ground which indicates a land that was isolated a very long time ago.. resources obviously dried up a long way back.. * +

Well yeah, your timelines are all fu*ked up, sometimes by thousands of years. Your understanding of what druids were is not just flawed but flat out wrong. Also to think that there are druids now is just plain stupid. Those are just new age types with a full bush and a personal history tinged with tragedy. * +

The Welsh/Brythonic name for this festival is Alban Eilir, meaning the light of spring, and it is the turning point within the season of Imbolc, marking the time of equal night and day when the sun rises in the east. By the calendar it is at a specific point around 21-22 March and a great many of its traditions have been taken on by the Christian Church and blended into Easter, a word that itself stems from the Saxon goddess Eostra, having the same root as oestrus and oestrogen.

That's not very specific lol. * +
