The
first invaders of England were the Celts. The animals and birds were sacred
to the Celts and bird or animal parts represent many of the gods and
spirits. The changing of form (shape shifting) was said to have been used by
the Druids who were able to change into different wild animals. The image of the boar was
popular in Celtic times and appeared as figures, as helmet crests, as sword
stamps and on coinage, confirming their particular associations with warfare
and power. The pendant is 37mm tall and is manufactured in traditional
lead-free pewter. Supplied with wax cord.
The
card is colour depicting a Zoomorphic design on the front and historical information on the back.
