I forgot about the chief exponent of the 18th c. Druidic Industry: Iolo Morganwg, who called himself that because "Ed Williams" just didn't cut it for a Druid.

He single-handedly led the Druidic Revival and fabricated a bunch of nonsense about supposed pagan rituals.

The former "Arch-Druid of Canterbury" - Rowan Williams (no relation to Ed so far as I know) - attended one of his organization's Druidic Festivals and was invested in some sort of office.

Utter silliness bearing very little relation to reality. But the tourists (and the Welsh nationalists) just eat this stuff up.

Thanks for pinging me to her comments.

Yes, it certainly makes sense.
