Saman (Sham-an). Celts living in Ireland honored this God of the Dead. They celibate a day called Samhain: Their Celtic New Year. Thousands of years ago there was a tribe of farmers called the Celts. They knew that the sun helped make their crops grow, so when autumn came the sun began to fade and they believed that the sun would be winter's prisoner for six months. They were worried that the sun would not return so to make sure it did they held a festival on October 31. During which time, they would ask the sun to return safely in the summer. All cooking fires were put out and a huge bonfire was lit on the hillside. Here they pray for the sun would shine brightly after winter was over. The next morning everyone in the country would return to the hillside and take a piece of the burning wood from the remains of the bonfire and light new fires, in their homes so as to bring good luck. Feasts would be held over the new fires and people would dress up in costumes made out of animal skins. It was believed these costumes would protect people from bad luck. Samhain is what the Celts called the lord of the dead.
