I am very interested in Pictish culture, art, music etc. I am only learning of the Pictish peoples as of recently via the History Channel, and the info they gave was just a LIGHT touching on of the subject when they did a show about King Henry the 8th. They said that very little is known about the Picts because artifacts from the Pict era is extremely rare, and little is known about those peoples. History Channel was trying put the Picts and the Celts in a "low-brow" light. Making them out to be completely barbaric, with NO culture, no history and of little to no intelligence. They even compared the Picts and early Celts to neanderthal man. The only thing they showed in favor of the Celts was the knot-work designs and the stone carvings on Celtic burial graves. They even showed the Celts as blood-thirsty, religious fanatics. So much so, that the Celts would sacrifice men, women and children, young and old, in a "hunt", chasing down the victim after being tied and bound, and more than likely tortured before the chase, and then finally caught and killed, cutting out their hearts, much like the Incas used to do, and then sacrificed the victims to Odin. Isn't Odin a Norse god?
How that pertained to King Henry the 8th, I do not know. They never explained. History Channel flubbed that one up.
Any accurate info and web links would be much appreciated.
