Excerpt from Prehistoric Faith and Worship: Glimpses of Ancient Irish Life

This little book is presented to the public without any controversial intention, and merely for the purpose of putting before its readers antiquarian views in the light that they appear to the writer. Subsequent to its publication in various journals, an able monograph was published by Mr. George Coffey, M.R.I.A., in which he put forward very similar views to those of the writer, and nothing (that seems to be) contrary to his statements. The only part of the book that can be called controversial is where the writer treats the Tuatha De Danann as a real people.
