Ethnic faith among the Celtic tribes was a cultural manifestation, and the local people’s spirituality was closely tied to their cultural distinctiveness.
The celts considered the gods to be ancestors, both ancient and recently deceased, and believed that their first ancestors were born of a union between the Gods and the men and women of the tribe.
Knowing this, the Gods were literally our first ancestors.
The diverse Celtic beliefs encompassing the idea of the ancestors can be seen in different Celtic customs such as the feast of the dead, and solstice celebrations.
