Druidism can be described as a shamanic religion, as it relied on a combination of contact with the spirit world and holistic medicines to treat (and sometimes cause) illnesses. They were said to have induced insanity in people and been accurate fortune tellers. Some of their knowledge of the earth and space may have come from megalithic times. Druidism is thought to have been a part of Celtic and Gaulish culture in Europe, with the first classical reference to them in the 2nd century BC.

The Kintyre Peninsula is an area of outstanding beauty. It is off the beaten track but only 1-1.5 hour’s drive from the tourist hot-spots of Inveraray and Oban.
