Hey I just wrote a paper on the instances of the threefold death in celtic mythology. I'm currently working on editing it for wikipedia. I am also waiting for the prof to grad it so that I won't be in trouble for plagiarism :) Tom renault ( talk) 22:37, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
Two months ago you would have found the article "less than existent." I welcome your additions - I simply thought the topic was worthy of address, but was not about to load it with filler or original research. Kjaer ( talk) 00:53, 13 December 2008 (UTC)
I'm sorry if I sounded rude. I recently wrote a senior paper on this topic for my final. The small bit here, specifically the suggested links to Bec mac de and Aed Dub. actually directed my research helpfully. I just wanted to make it easier for others who are researching indo-european culture to find the information that they need. Tom renault ( talk) 21:00, 15 December 2008 (UTC)
No, Tom, you did not seem rude. I was picking on you for your use of words, since I was the originator of the page, and until your recent and very helpful additions, no one else had added any content. Once again, thanks for your work. Kjaer ( talk) 03:03, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
I added a bunch of links to the article after your last major contribution, Tom.
I separated the article into sections.
I wonder if we could use an image? Maybe the Hanged Man tarot or Odin. Kjaer ( talk) 03:03, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
The Hanged Man tarot card is asscoiated by some with the threefold death. It is also associated with Odin. This section could be added. Kjaer ( talk) 03:03, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
And Odin himself should be made into a section separate from Merlin. Kjaer ( talk) 03:03, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
Lleu Llaw Gywffes and the Lindow man should be tied into the Threefold death theme. The Lindow man was discovered drowned in a bog, with a knife wound and a noose around his neck. Many believe that the lindow man was sacrificed. Lleu died in a prophesied manner: which some suggest was connected to the Threefold death theme. I haven't had time to research either in depth, but here's a suggestion for expansion to the article. Tom renault ( talk) 20:34, 27 December 2008 (UTC)
It's tripartite, not tripartate. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.52.79.114 ( talk) 18:04, 24 January 2017 (UTC)
Reading this, I was a little confused by this section:
Is 'slaughter'+'stabbed' not counted as a death, in this case?
