The Bards

Bards were poets and musicians in ancient times, particularly in Celtic cultures, known for composing and singing epic tales, often about heroes and historical events. They played a significant role in preserving oral traditions, history, and folklore through their storytelling and songs. Bards used their art to entertain, educate, and inspire communities, often performing at gatherings and ceremonies. Their craftsmanship in language and music was highly respected, and they were seen as keepers of cultural identity. In literature and modern media, the concept of the bard endures as a symbol of creativity and artistic expression.
