Celtic Women Institute 

The January, 2013 issue of the National Geographic Magazine describes the new gene discovered in the human genome project, known as the wanderer's gene or DRD4-7R.  It is associated with ADHD/ADD and Celtic Peoples.  We will examine why Celtic People wandered, the adaptive significance of their movements, where they went, what they did and why that is important for us now.  The mystery of the Knights Templar will be introduced as it relates to particular Celtic Peoples and their mysterious practices.  Early travelers to North America, the maps, diaries and oral tradition of North Americn indigenous tribes.  We will examine who are Celtic Peoples today and why our perceptions and stereotypes may need adjustment.
