About this Event
A Talk by Andy norfolk. Cornish Deities: Bucca and Gwragh.
This talk explores Iron Age belief systems, such as creator gods and other beings that sit uneasily between the worlds, to the religious world associated with druids. At its heart are two distinctly Cornish figures Bucca and Gwragh whose stories offer rare glimpses into local deities, folklore, and the deep relationship between landscape, ritual, and the unseen.
Blending archaeology, mythology, and cultural history, this talk invites you to uncover a Cornwall where the divine was not always in the sky, but often hidden underground, waiting to be encountered.
