Ceud mìle Fàilte. Welcome to the GARRÁN BUILG™ (formerly "Croman's Grove") community at Nemediu.org (our new home, after our long relationship with MSN Groups was brought to an end by MSN's decision to do away with their groups option). The Garrán Builg ("The Grove of Bolg") community is a place to learn about Ivernian culture and Ivernian Heathen Revivalism (often called "an Rian Sinnsearach," that is, "the Ancestral Way" or "the Elder Way"), a virtual educational site maintained by the Cenéle Dáiri™ Ivernian Heathen Revivalist Túath (a recognised "congregation" of the in Róen Sinserda™ Ivernian Heathen Revivalist Fellowship). The Garrán Builg online community is, to some extent, an online manifestation of the actual (offline) Holy Site of the Cenéle Dáiri Túath, which is known as the Neimed Cruimm™ Sanctuary ("Shrine of Cromm"™ Sanctuary).

Our approach may be called "Celtic Heathen Revivalism," by which we intend "Restoration of Tradition where possible, Reconstruction of Tradition where necessary, and New Creation in a Living Tradition where consistent, within a Celtic Tribal Co-operative." That New Creation is done is not an admission of dissociation from the sources of the Tradition, but rather an assertion of the living aspect of the Tradition. The Aes Dána are, after all, as "People of the Gift," quite obviously Artists of various media, including Music, Dance, Poetry, and so on.

We believe that the indigenous ("Heathen") religious aspects of Celtic culture are inseparable from Celtic culture, and vice-versa. We also believe that Revival of the Heathen cultures of the various residents of Ireland and Scotland in the Iron Age should be done within the framework of the different cultures. The focus of the Cenéle Dáiri Túath is on the Builg, also called Érainn and Iuerni.

The Garrán Builg community is a virtual Sacred Place established for the study of all things relating to the Heathen Iuerni of Ireland and Scotland, and the Belgae of Galliâ Belgicâ. (Yeah, we're a bunch of Heathens, proud to be Beyond the Pale.)
