| Abstract: | Explores links between the archaeological evidence for cauldron deposition during the European Iron Age and the mythology of cauldrons as presented in medieval vernacular texts of Wales and Ireland. It is suggested that the later redactors of the myths had either observed examples of ancient cauldrons or learned about them through oral tradition. | ||
