• Ogham (Celtic alphabet) in America?

  Ogham is the ancient Celtic alphabet that was inscribed on stones and trees. The letters of this alphabet were all actually based on trees. Some researchers have connected this practice with the Druids, the pre-Christian priests of the Celtic lands and compared it to various forms of shamanism around the world. The poet Robert Graves bases a great deal of his book, The White Goddess on the intricate meanings of the Celtic Tree Alphabet.

  One fascinating but controversial belief is that the ancient Celts visited America and left evidence of this in the form of Ogham. This blog will go into more detail about many of these subjects, but for now I wanted to post this short video about this. It is certainly not inconceivable that the Celts, like the Vikings, came to the New World at some point.
