The book titled ""The Gaulish Druidical System"" written by James Rust is a comprehensive study of the ancient druidical system of the Gauls. The Gauls were a Celtic people who inhabited the regions of modern-day France, Belgium, Switzerland, and Northern Italy during the Iron Age. The book delves into the history, beliefs, and practices of the Gaulish druids, who were the priests and guardians of the Celtic religion. The author provides an in-depth analysis of the druidical system, including its hierarchy, rites, and ceremonies, and how it influenced the political, social, and cultural aspects of Gaulish society. He also explores the role of the druids in the military, their knowledge of astronomy, and their use of plants and herbs for medicinal purposes. The book is divided into chapters that cover various aspects of the Gaulish druidical system, such as the origins of the druids, their training, their religious beliefs, and their connection to nature. Rust also examines the influence of the Roman conquest on the druidical system and the decline of the druids in Gaulish society. Overall, ""The Gaulish Druidical System"" is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and culture of the Gauls, as well as those interested in ancient religions and spiritual practices. The book is well-researched and provides a fascinating insight into the beliefs and practices of one of the most enigmatic groups in European history.THIS 34 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Druidism Exhumed, by James Rust.
