Description
Excerpt from The Borrowed Bride: A Fairy Love Legend of Donegal
The spirit mythology of the Irish is said to have come down from a Strange tribe - the Tuat/za-d''e-saam, meaning Magic God Almoners, who ruled in Ireland some thirteen hundred years before the Christian era. Recent researches Show that this tribe or sect of religious magicians was among the earliest that migrated from ancient Iran, the cradle of the human race. They preceded the classic Greeks in Europe, and were probably related to the American mound builders and serpent worshippers, traces of whom in the Ohio valley are now being examined by a commission. The notes at the back of the volume may be worth perusal in this respect.
