In "The Fairies in Europe," Heinrich Schreiber returns to the Celtic tribes, which were distinguished by a particular reverence for women. In this context, Schreiber also discusses a system of female rule that escalated to the point of deification. From this starting point, Schreiber connects various archaeological findings from that time, describing, among other things, druid circles and fairy castles, weaving together archaeological knowledge with legends passed down for centuries. This is a carefully edited reprint of the original edition from 1842.
