Today's Website of the day features a site on History.
Ancienthistory.org
The Ancient web is an online resource for Students, Teachers, and anyone interested in the cultures of the ancient world.
I especially liked this bit from the Irish section
Brigit - goddess of agriculture, fire, healing, inspiration, learning divination, occult knowledge, poetry, prophecy, smithcraft. Her Gaelic name of Breo-saighead means "fiery arrow" or "fiery power". Celts often referred to her as being three in one - the Triple Brigits or the Three Mothers. An ever-burning fire was kept in her honor by her nineteen priestesses who lived in a sacred temple at Kildare. She was also a daughter of the Dagda. Variants: Brid, Brig, Brigid, Brighid.
