    Those who have watched 'Robin of Sherwood' almost 30 years ago will surely know who 'Herne the hunter' was. Savior of the people of Sherwood from an evil Sheriff of Nottingham.

    There is a version of the story which suggests that Herne died fighting a white stag which nearly killed Herne's king. So Herne fought the stag off to save the king, and died in place of the king. We know that it is written that there is no greater love than to die for a friend. Once you see it in that way, it is difficult to conflate Herne with the devil.

    Just a quick note, the author and narrator of this video like most people on KZread and the internet mispronounce the name, Cernunnos in the same way that American basketball fans mispronounce the Boston Celtics. The correct way to pronounce Cernunnos is with a hard K so it is pronounced: Care-new-knows.

    Uuuuuummmmm... let's just say that modern Celts and Celtic pagan based folk got em right. Go look up images of Pashupati and then come back.😉 I and many other Celtic descendants have always honored him as such, just like the Hindus do. strangely enough most of us recognize who he was even from childhood. His Image at the age of five felt safer than safe, righter than right, and known to me before a name was even uttered. And that's WAAAAAY before the internet was born!😆❤🦌

    Ive been searching for the story of Berwyn. I cant find it anywhere all I've found is that berwyn was with White hair and the Legendary son of Kerenhyr but i have yet to find any storied about either. Im on this search because Berwyn is middle name and ive always been told by my father it was a strong gaelic name and im just trying to learn about it. I was hoping you could either do a vid or tell me where i can find a story about any of it. Thankyou i love your story telling voice.

    I am convinced that the pop culture version of the Wendigo is an Americanized version of Herne the Hunter.

    When I was a child, my father owned a Hawk whom he named Hern. Makes perfect sense to me now as we used to hunt with him.

    In Terry Pratchett Herne is a small stag the size of a rabbit and not very powerful

    There's many different myths on the wild hunt, it's not always Odin. It totally depends on the place and time the myth was being told. You can trace its travel around Europe mostly as it went from place to place with travellers and was then adapted by that culture to fit with their views on the world. Sometimes it was death himself, usually at times of famine, sometime a hunter who was being punished for something. I find the way different cultures adapt myths to fit as they need to be really interesting.
