A Strange Tale
IN my Tradition and Folk Life (1972), p. I i, I referred to certain strange events relating to a carpenter's workshop in Montgomeryshire parish. Several friends have pressed me to record in full, since I can vouch personally for the truth of all the details, the story of these happenings. My grandfather, David Peate (1831-1896), was a country carpenter and wheelwright, living at Glan-llyn, Llanbryn-Mair, Montgomeryshire (see Montgomeryshire Colle…

Reconstructing the Past
How far can a folk museum go in reconstructing the past? This question is posed after reading a monograph by Dr John T. Schlebecker of the Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C. entitled The Past in Action: Living Historical Farms. Schlebecker is primarily concerned, of course, with the United States and deplores the fact that while ‘tools and implements’ are shown in open-air museums, ‘processes and life’ are not. He maintains that the farmer…

Sigurd Erixon, 1888-1968
Professor Sigurd Erixon died suddenly on 18 February 1968. Had he lived until 26 March he would have reached his eightieth birthday: this volume of Folk Life had been intended as a tribute to him on that occasion. Unhappily this was not to be: it must now be a memorial volume to one of the outstanding pioneers of folk-life study in Europe

The Long-House Again
During ‘the recent mild vendetta against the long-house in Wales’—as a reviewer in The Times Literary Supplement put it — some strange assertions have been made. The strangest came from the pen of a licentiate of the Royal Institute of British Architects:As I see it, the long-house is a product of the Industrial Revolution when the sale of milk to our growing towns and cities became a profitable business. Many Welsh farmers did strange things to …
The Society for Folk Life Studies
I have been asked by the Editor to introduce the Society to the readers of Folk Life. To do so, I must be, briefly, personal. My work in Welsh folk life studies began forty years ago: I soon discovered that there was no-one with whom I could discuss all aspects of my research problems, no journal devoted to this aspect of research and no means of meeting regularly similar workers in other parts of Great Britain. During the 1930's papers with some…
Marl Lwyd-Láir Brán
In Man, XLIII, 1943, I suggested that the Welsh Mari Lwyd. had originally no connexion with ‘Holy Mary’ by which name it had been usual to translate the term into English: further, that Mari Lwyd is simply ‘grey mare’, mari being a medieval borrowal from English ‘mare’.My friend, Professor Séamus Ó Duilearga, Honorary Director of the Irish Folklore Commission, University College, Dublin, draws my attention to associated customs in Ireland and the…
Folklore Studies in Wales
IN Wales, the national folk museum was opened in 1948 at St Fagans. This development was the culmination of long years of collection and study which began at the beginning of this century. During those years work had been carried on at the University College of Wales, Aberystwyth, under the leadership of Professor H. J. Fleure and Professor T. Gwynn Jones and from 1930 onwards in the sub-department and later the Department of Folk Life in the Nat…
The Gorsedd of the Bards of Britain
Professor Stuart Piggott ends his admirable study of William Stukeley with these words: 'It was a Druidic dream-world which has left an oddly tangible relic today in the Welsh Eisteddfod with its Gorsedd Circle, invented by Iolo Morganwg in response to romantic Welsh patriotism a century or so ago, but in the end to be derived from Stukeley ...'. When I pointed out to Professor Piggott that, in this form, his statement was not strictly accurate, …

Folk Culture
In these islands we have been tardy in recognizing Folk Culture as an independent science. As the editor of Folkliv, Professor Sigurd Erixon, states in his Foreword: 'It has long been leading a more or less dependent existence as an ambulating guest of certain related branches of science, which, thanks to the force of circumstances, were consolidated earlier. Generally it has been awarded a certain amount of space in archaeological, historical, a…
Some Welsh Houses
The interaction between man and his environment, which is the basic principle of the science of Geography, is well-illustrated in a study of house-types in Wales. A detailed survey of Welsh house-types is being carried out by the Department of Folk Culture of the National Museum of Wales. It is felt that a study of the traditional types will not only throw much light on the history of culture but will also clarify some issues in the anthropologic…

The Kelts in Britain
Sir John Rhŷs, whose name is justly honoured by all students of the history of Britain, is nevertheless indirectly responsible for much vague conjecture concerning the Keltic problem by English archaeologists. I write 'English' advisedly, for Irish archaeologists-with a profound knowledge of Keltic philology-have definitely refuted the theories propounded by Rhys and maintained in various modified forms by subsequent archaeologists in England. In…

The Nine Huntings
In his appendix (pages 84–5) to his Changes in the Fauna of Wales within Historic Times , Mr Colin Matheson, refers to ‘ the old Welsh text known as Y Naw Helwriaeth or The Nine Huntings [which] has been generally regarded as setting forth the hunting customs among the early Welsh ’. This text has been published in the Myvyrian Archaiology (2nd edition, pp. 872-3) and in Dr John Davies’s Dictionarium duplex (1632). Both these printed texts howeve…

The Double-ended Fire-dog
In the first published description of the Capel Garmon fire-dog (PLATE, p. 64), J. Evans quotes a view concerning its use: 'I would suggest that this instrument is intended to hold the spits for roasting fowls, game or other small animals. ... The loops on the side are evidently intended for that purpose, and it is probable that the horns of the two heads are intended for supporting a larger one'.On the other hand, in the latest description of th…
