Iolo Morgannwyg describes a creation in his Barddas. I don't know how valid it is for a Celtic creation myth (everything Iolo did is tainted by the hint of being "made-up"). It can be found in the Summerlands Public Library under the link for Barddas. There's a hot link to the appropriate page below. *p*Click on Barddas Book 1 and select slide 145 for that info or read both books online.  Just click on the image to go to the next page (once in the slideviewer) and remember that the direction and size of the viewing can be changed using the options at the bottom of each page.*p*Searles*p*DreamSeekern66 wrote,*br*: Greetings, I belong to several lists and lately *br*: there seems to be a lot of questions concerning *br*: the lack of information (I'm presuming they mean *br*: on the web) about Celtic creation myths. I am not *br*: qualified to venture an answer and haven't got any *br*: reference material handy to help and so I post *br*: this question to the board here at the Summerlands *br*: for discussion. *br*:*br*: (taken from recent emails and snipped to shorten *br*: post)*br*:*br*: ~~I am in desperate need of the Celtic Creation *br*: Myth-my friend's writing a *br*: paper on myths and we can't seem to find it *br*: anywhere.  Sileas*br*:*br*: ~~The Theory Of Creation*br*: I have only been stuying Pagan paths for 3 1/2 *br*: years, and have had no *br*: group contact which would have brought up this *br*: subject. What are the many theories of Creation *br*: held by the people here? I don't even want to *br*: hazard a guess. <snip> I need something to *br*: answer my kids questions with. Often I give them a *br*: " some beleive this and others beleive that *br*: " outline so they can choose what works for *br*: them, but I have no fuel for this one. *br*:*br*: ~~I have just one question. Every religion I have *br*: studied has a creation *br*: story, but I have never been able to find one in *br*: the wiccan religion. *br*: I was just wondering if there was one or if it is *br*: up to the individual *br*: because that's what I have been doing. Any answers *br*: for me?*br*: ~Bridgantia*br*:*br*: So there you have it. Thanks for the time and *br*: attention in advance. Blessings. Elayne*br*
