Who Were The Pagan Gods | Gods & Monsters | Parable

From the Romans to the Celts to the Vikings, pagan gods existed in all of our ancestors' rich theologies. They inspired mystery cults, agricultural rituals and sacrifices, all which historians are only beginning to scratch the surface of. In the final episode of Gods & Monsters, Tony Robinson confronts Viking berserkers, recreates the flaming horror of the Wicker Man, re-enacts a brutal ritual human sacrifice, and witnesses self-mutilation – all in his quest to understand how our ancestors worshipped. 02:27 Celtic Beliefs 12:56 The Wicker Man 18:28 Roman Deities 21:50 Foundations of Christianity 32:10 The Vikings Subscribe to Parable for more Religious History documentaries!
