Original sentence: According to Gerald Gardner, who first publicised the religion in 1954, Wicca is a modern survival of an ancient pan-European Pagan religion that was driven underground during the witch trials, and the Goddess and Horned God (the "Lord" and "Lady") of Wicca are the ancient tribal gods of this cult.However there is little evidence to suggest origins of the religion predating the 20th century, and Gardner himself admitted that he had reconstructed the rites from fragments, incorporating elements from English folklore and more contemporary influences.In modern Wicca, "The Horned God" may can refer individually to many localised gods of different cultures, or to the universal archetype Wiccans believe they represent.In the religion of Wicca, the Horned God is revered as the partner and/or child of the Goddess (commonly described as the Great Mother or the Triple Goddess)
Edited sentence: Gerald Gardner began Wicca in England as what he saw as a revival of ancient Pagan worship, focused on the duality of the Great God and the Great Mother.In modern Wicca, "The Horned God" can refer to any of these individually, or to the universal archetype Wiccans believe they represent.It should be noted, however, that Wicca is little based on historical findings and is mixture of many influences from Gardner's time, instead of being a reconstruction of any one culture or religion
