Celebrating Lammas: Some History of the Holiday

July 29, 2011 By Star Foster

SCHOOL OF THE SEASONS: “Now some people say that William the Red was a Lammas sacrifice, that having made a wasteland of his kingdom, he was killed by the people (or the Gods) as a sacrifice to bring new life to the land. And some people say his brother Henry has him assassinated. And some people say that both versions are true.”
