First sentence: There is a good reason for starting with archaeological evidence for a lost religion: it is the only evidence that goes back to the early periods of Celtic and Germanic culture, far beyond that of the written sources in north-west Europe, while in later periods it may confirm or throw new light on conclusions drawn from written sources.
