Witchcraft thread

Thanks so much for the recommendations. I’ll have to see if I can find them in the library.

I am a firm believer that people were much more connected to each other than history teaches us. There were ideas and practices that were exchanged between those who were open to them, and that nothing now is exactly as it was back then.

I've been binging Time Team recently, which is a long-running history/archaeology series based on Great Britain (England/Wales/Scotland/Ireland mostly) originally produced by the BBC. The details of settlements dating back into the Neolithic (ca 4000BC) and the existence of trade between the Island and people as far away as the Eurasian Steppes at that time is crazy to think about. The people were connected to the land in a way I don't think we understand anymore as a society. "Bronze Age" or "Iron age" don't mean a lot until you start looking at how these people (who are probably many of our ancestors) lived and the thriving culture they enjoyed.

I also love Time Team.

I found this interesting. The guy is a little anti gubmint but his presentation is very well thought out and he insists that we should do our own research into the information to verify what he says.

Especially the bones, organs, feet, tongue and ears they make for the best stock!
