Join the Celtic druid Camma in her village as she conducts religious rites, serves as a healer, and mediates conflict between tribes.



As the sun rises in 55 BCE, Camma lays two pigeons on the altar at the center of her village. She wrings the birds’ necks and cuts them open to examine their entrails for divine messages. Camma is a druid. She conducts religious rites, serves as a judge, healer, and scholar, teaches children and mediates conflict between Celtic tribes. Philip Freeman outlines a day in the life of a druid.

Lesson by Philip Freeman, directed by Keegan Thornhill.
