Ireland Culture Question
Q.This is your chance to educate me. Why would it be expected that all Irish should support Irish football and not other non-Irish teams but one would choose to sort of disdain traditional Celtic art. Based on the nationalistic football reasoning, it logically follows that all Irish should support traditional Celtic art because its Irish and shouldn't the Irish support things Irish? Or is it just a case of -- we like tradtional Celtic art but that is not the only kind of art produced in Ireland?
A.In Britain, they usually contain pot shards, twigs of ash, wooden figures, and bones of humans, cows, dogs, birds, and horses. Sometimes food, currency and jewelry were left. Evidence at some pits indicates that some of the animal bones were the remains of a feast, usually cooked near the pit, which may have been part of the ritual. These pits were usually done carefully, infrequently, and with high-quality items. Some 24 Celtic shrines have been identified in England : 17 were rectangular, and the doorway faces in the general direction of the rising sun in virtually all of them. Most could only hold about a dozen people, and 6 could only hold a single person; a few could hold up to 50 people. 13 were set in open countryside, requiring a special journey; of the rest, 9 were isolated from other buildings, and 6 were set apart by an enclosure. 13 had brooches, weapons, coins, animal bones, horse harnesses, and real or miniature weapons left as offerings. Food, drink, or cloth may have been left, but would not show up in the archaeological record. Some sites had more than one shrine.
