#Celtic #FolkloreThursday: „Some schools of thought perceive #Amergin and #Donn of the Milesians as divine twins in some kind of pagan creation story. As a poet, Amergin is seen as the child of light and inspiration, while Donn, who died on board before the battle for #Ireland had even commenced, is thought to be the self-sacrificing dark lord of the dead.“ This is an example for the #Celtic belief in the power of twins.
