Not sure where to post this, but I was wondering if anyone out there was into mythology as a hobby? If so, what kind? I prefer Celtic, Norse and some Native American...

but i have been studying welsh mythology for sometime and its good stuff, but very much christianised...
i'm very much into proper storytelling, when stories are passed down generations soley by word of mouth. i think its a very important tradition which is fast dying out...
yeah a lot of Slavic myth is passed down only orally as well.
Welsh, huh? Is that in any way similar to Celtic/Gaelic? I really like the figure of Scathach from Irish mythology.

Ah okay...have you heard of SCATHACH? I've been really into her story since I came across her in The Alchemyst. She's obviously different in the novel, but her basic legend is still intact.
