The Gaels

The Gaels are a group of Celtic peoples primarily from Ireland, Scotland, and the Isle of Man, known for their distinct languages, culture, and heritage. The term often refers to speakers of Gaelic languages, including Irish Gaelic and Scottish Gaelic. Historically, the Gaels were known for their rich traditions in music, storytelling, and art. Their social organization was clan-based, with a strong emphasis on kinship. Today, there is a cultural revival of Gaelic language and traditions, which are celebrated in festivals and by communities dedicated to preserving this unique heritage.
