Another interesting find is the "Lindow Woman". The discovery of the body led to a murder conviction when a man confessed to killing his wife when the body was found. But when the body was discovered to be over 1,000 years old he tried to take back his confession.

​@@IlmurOsp That's you talking. Others would disagree. I know for a fact I would be concerned about how my corpse is handled, regardless if there's a afterlife or not. It's that final thought of knowing your remains will be okay till its no more that can put one's final hours at ease. And there are evidence of those in the past who cared about how their corpse will be handled. There are even wills left behind by these people containing instructions to make it happen.

Peat Bog Fossilization This occurs when plants and animals are preserved in peat bogs, which are acidic environments that form when decaying plant matter sinks to the bottom of a body of water and decomposes slowly over time. As it decays, this material becomes more acidic as well as highly carbon-rich; eventually, it turns into a very soft black substance known as peat (or “muck”). The acidity prevents oxygen from reaching the remains buried at the bottom of such an environment, which means they won’t decay further-and they may even become mineralized over time!

Trouble is, a major investigation will start over it! At least wear a metal tag around a part of your body! Maybe ALL parts, so they will not think it's a serial killer on the loose! Write your life story in tupperware while you're at it, so you can be published posthumously and can lie (or not) about your entire life. Also, forbid them from moving your body and have it notarized, so they know you mean business. Ok, I think I've covered everything except book profits. Should there be any, that is. ( This is amateur musings, not to be taken seriously. Anyone who likes this idea, should re-think it, as it is utter drivel.) Happy living!😊

Pagan or Heathen are lousy words to use...ever. Pre-christian was much better, so thanks. Post christianity is also a "thing" now. Best to estimate the year, if implied, imo. Both Pagan and Heathen refer to people who are likely in the country, and usually the last ones to hear about the very latest of new"fads" in large cities. Since your videos are my favorites, I thought I'd make a kind request, and hope you'll take it under consideration. Very interesting video! I love learning about 'bog ' bodies.

@@ruthanneseven Not really. The trials of witches were legal processes, documented and kept in archives. Nobody was executed for using herbal remedies for the simple reason that there were no other kind of remedies until, like, 18th century (although leeches, mercury, sulphur, etc., were used from Antiquity). Even the monks and nuns who cared for the sick used the same remedies; that's recorded in the inventories of their pharmacies. People who were executed for witchcraft had to have been found guilty of Satan worshipping. In old Christianity, that was the concept of witchcraft, not paganism. As an example, natives who resisted Christianization were not prosecuted for their beliefs. That's also documented, mostly by the Catholics, who keep way more detailed records of everything - even the torture sessions in Inquisition's trials. Please remember too, at the time torture was a legitimate interrogation method - every court in Europe and the colonies used it. Researcher here, worked decades making bibliographies of religion history. Please, prove me wrong with sources. Name one person who was documented as convicted and executed for using herbal remedies.

Paganism, or neo-Paganism, are a set of actual religions currently practiced by actual people. They call themselves Pagans and proudly so. Examples of Pagan religions are Wicca, Druidism, Shamanism, Celtic and Slavic traditions, etc. "Paganism" has a Wikipedia article. You might like to take a look at it.

@ruthanneseven

2 ай бұрын

@MariaMartinez-researcher Yes, dear, I already know all that. It's branched out considerably since I was first acknowledged. My annoyance has been with creators who use two words to describe nearly every non-christian group on the planet and archeologists who look at each ancient discovery through a christian lens. Did you miss that part of what I wrote through your blinded indignation? Don't you find it odd that educated Druids would be called pagans? There were Druids long before Jesus hit the scene. Pagan comes from an Italian word, pagani. When Constantine decided to use Christianity to unite his empire, it started in the cities,taking its sweet time to spread to the peasants, those expendable country bumpkins who fed those high-falutin ingrates. All of the newest fads came out of the cities, as I explained previously. It became not just a derogatory term but a criminal term. I have been accused of it in a court of law. Thankfully, that law had been repealed. Just recently, I heard a trans-sexual ranting about me for the second time. In'her' backdropm was a still photo taken from the Wizard of Oz movie, where the wicked witch of the West's striped socks are pathetically mismatched with those darling ruby slippers. Don't get me started on the rest of her oufit! Let me digress to ask if you've ever noticed how clergymen of a certain rank wear pointy hats during my digression. No? Some of them wear a sort of Jewish yamaka on their heads. It's common for a newer yet connected group of devotees to copy or add to their facade to increase their credibility and possibly become more attractive to those on the fence about the new changes in this odd new belief system ruled by a book few could read. Back to our topic: words and their usage. Although the moniker of witch is often used interchangeably with Heathen and also Pagan and they're all still loaded with horrible connotations. One intentionally mistranslated phrase in the bible made certain of that. "Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live." The original was, "Thou shalt not suffer a poisoner of wells to live." The people who could read were clergymen and the ruling class. Since the repeal of embarrassing with laws, many people felt safe to come out of their closets, much like the alphabet folks. Like christianity, a few claimed to know the TRUE old ways and rituals. Noses aimed skywards, each tried to out do all others. They became businesses, too! To my horror, the Wiccan Rede, a poem, was now a law! It didn't matter that Alastair Crowley ìnfuenced part of it or that Gardiner was an animist who loved to dance naked in his backyard with his like-minded friends! He was a 7th° in Crowley's OTO, loved nature and nudity! He did what he willed, harming none, which was confirmed by the police, who had been called to the scene to investigate what was going on behind Gardiner's ridiculously high-fenced garden. During WWll, England was at risk of serious invasion. In 1940 a large group of practitioners gathered in New Forest to build a cone of energy aimed directly at Hitler; "YOU WILL NOT CROSS THE SEA!" This ritual went on for so long before the energy was released. Exhausted, several people died shortly thereafter. That's the legend.. I'd like to think those patriotic people did what they could. Hitler was never able to take the island. I see it as a convergence of many Wills coming together in desperation with powerful conviction, possibly focused and aided by witchcraft. Finally, in 1951, a group of Spiritualists, with the support of Winston Churchill, the laws against Witchcraft were repeaĺed. These laws were repealed the same year in the USA. Still, it carries a stigma to this day. To call it a religion is limiting. it's a way of life. There is a home in it for the emotionally inclined, the psychics, some astrologers, some cosplayers, nature lovers, and people with real abilities. Sadly, it's also a haven for snake oil sellers and people who promise to get your lover to return to you. Some groups become cult like and charge big bucks. Avoid them. If one is worthy, the teacher will come. Unempowered people seek to gain power they will never have. They fall into the cosplayer realm. So, Maria, what would you like to learn today? I'll bet you'll tell me you're the High Priestess of some group or another, and know everything already! In my role as Crone, I'll sit here laughing.. 🤣😂 1951. Ahahaha!!!
