Llangeler yew tree grove
Unlisted for 30 days.
Made public: 26th November 2024
Ffraed continues to spiral us back through time. In this video She has brought us to the Carmarthenshire village of Llangeler.
More on the musing of Llangeler's name:
There may have been a hermit who set up his cell here where Ffraed spins into the ancient yew grove, where female druids gathered, before him, perhaps even the Culdee later too. What is now Llangeler churchyard is certainly an anciently recognised place of worship and sanctity.
It is known, an array of peoples with a variety of languages came this way; they included the Cymru (Welsh), Irish Gaelic, Roman Latin, English, French, and even Aramaic and Greek. Dialects, translation, illiteracy, custom can all account for name changes and variants of spelling. I've seen double 'l' frequently replaced with a single one numerous times for instance.
A grove is a term for a gathering of druids these days. Perhaps it was then too.
