Samhain Special: Corpse Carrying For Beginners
From Story Archaeology · 1:22:14
Show by Chris Thompson and Isolde Carmody
An Acallam na nÉces Samhain Special In this seasonal special, the Story Archaeologists compare two stories of Samhain. But what could such stories tell us about life 100 or even 1,000 years ago? Find out as the Story Archaeologists, Chris and Isolde, go digging one dark night. I am reposting this episode, one of my personal favourites and one of the most popular, ever.
