Scottish Highlands Brownie has got a cowl and coat, And never more will work a jot. Stewart Colonies of Gothic Fairies, it would appear, early established themselves in the Highlands, and almost every Lowland, German, and Scandinavian Fairy or Dwarf-tale will there find its fellow. The Gaelic Fairies are very handsome in their persons; their usual attire is green. They dance and sing, lend and borrow, and they make cloth and shoes in an amazingly short space of time. They make their raids upon the low country, and carry off women and children; they fetch midwives to assist at the birth of their children, and mortals have spent a night at the fairy revels, and next morning found that the night had extended a hundred years. Highland fairies also take the diversion of the chase. "One Highlander," says Mc.Culloch, "in passing a mountain, bears the tramp of horses, the music of the horn, and the cheering of the huntsmen; when suddenly a gallant crew of thirteen fairy hunters, dressed in green, sweep by him, the silver bosses of their bridles jingling in the night breeze."

The Scottish Lowlands When from their hilly dens, at midnight hour, Forth rush the airy elves in mimic state, And o'er the moonlight heath with swiftness scour, In glittering arms the little horsemen shine. ERSKINE. The Scottish Fairies scarcely differ in any essential point from those of England. Like them they are divided into the rural and the domestic. Their attire is green, their residence the interior of the hills. They appear more attached than their neighbours to the monarchical form of government, for the Fairy king and queen, who seem in England to have been known only by the poets, were recognised by law in Caledonia, and have at all times held a place in the popular creed. They would appear also to be more mischievously inclned than the Southrons, and less addicted to the practice of dancing. They have, however, had the advantage of not being treated with contempt and neglect by their human countrymen, and may well be proud of the attention shown them by the brightest genius of which their country can boast. There has also been long due from them an acknowledgment of the distinction conferred on them by the editor of the Nithsdale and Galloway Song, for the very fanciful manner in which he has described their attributes and acts.

British Studies Web Pages Myths, Legends, Fantasy... HOME MAIL EVENTS INFO ... BOOK REVIEWS Legendary Recipes Perhaps one of the most famous recipes in English literature comes from a play about a legendary king of Scotland, Shakespeare’s ‘Macbeth’. The witches on the heath cooked up a rather sinister soup, referred to as a ‘broth’, a word still used to describe soup. We do not recommend this particular Scotch broth though, for reasons you will appreciate when you read some of the ingredients which were thrown into the cauldron (pot). Second Witch: Fillet of a fenny snake In the cauldron boil and bake Eye of newt and toad of frog Wool of bat and tongue of dog Adder’s fork and blind-worm’s sting, Lizard’s leg and howlet’s wing, For a charm of powerful trouble, Like a hell broth boil and bubble All Three witches: Double, double toil and trouble Fire burn and cauldron bubble The other witches add ingredients such as ‘tooth of wolf’, ‘scale of dragon’, and ‘baboon’s blood.’ Visitors to Scotland will be pleased to hear that Scottish cuisine has improved a lot since then. Myths and legends too are full of references to food. In Irish mythology there were nuts of knowledge, probably hazel nuts. Some of these nuts found there way into the Shannon river and were eaten by a salmon which was then caught and cooked by Finn MacCunaill who burnt his thumb on the grilling fish. On sucking his thumb the wisdom of the nuts was transferred to one of his teeth, which became his tooth of knowledge which allowed him to predict the truthfulness of any person and helped him to become the most celebrated of Irish mythical heroes.

52. Raven In Mythology The wife of the Fomorian seagod, Tethra, was said to be a crow goddess who also hovered above battlefields, and scottish myth has the Cailleach Bheure, who http://www.ravenfamily.org/nascakiyetl/obs/rav1.html

Raven in Mythology Originally published as "Murders and Unkindnesses" in the Samhain edition of "White Dragon" Samantha Fleming , 1998. Reproduced with the kind permission of the author. For centuries the corvids, ravens and crows in particular ( corvus corax is the Latin name for the common raven and corvus corone for the carrion and hooded crows), have had a special place in the mythology of various cultures. In modern times this fascination has barely diminished. From Edgar Allen Poe's literary classic to the film of James O'Barr's cult graphic novel "The Crow", these birds still exert a powerful hold over the psyche of a significant fraction of the population. The Goths who paint their faces with white make-up and the weekend warriors who expect Raven to take them to the Otherworld to meet the dead do not see the same animal as the farmers who set up decoys in order to shoot large numbers of them every year in late spring. This is, however, typical of a creature that presents a paradox wherever one looks. Corvids are sociable birds. They tend to form social groups, and this can be seen particularly in the case of rooks, which stay in their flocks all year round. Ravens, the largest of the family, reaching as much as 3 feet from beak to tail, form groups as juveniles, pairing off into lifelong monogamous and extremely territorial relationships at around the age of three. The courtship can involve such fun and games as synchronised snow sliding, and, of course, the synchronised flight test. The corvids can be found all over the world, and are the largest of the passeriformae, or songbirds. The common raven is widely distributed throughout the Northern hemisphere, and the adaptability and intelligence of this family have made it extremely successful.

A monumental study in comparative folklore, magic and religion, The Golden Bough shows parallels between the rites and beliefs, superstitions and taboos of early cultures and those of Christianity. It had a great impact on psychology and literature and remains an early classic anthropological resource.
