The Religion of the Ancient Celts (1911) Chapter 16: Sacrifice and Prayer

by J. A. MacCulloch

The Celts offered human victims on the principle of a life for a life, or to propitiate the gods, or in order to divine the future from the entrails of the victim. We shall examine the Celtic custom of human sacrifice from these points of view first.
