the battlefield were called "feeders of ravens" in skaldic verse. Some of the skalds' kennings (metaphors)
for the raven included "blood-swan" and "blood-goose". Among the Celts, ravens were sacred to the
other-world Bird Goddess Rhiannon, and also incarnations of the death-dealing Morrigan. Ravens
brought omens of death. It was often said that ravens could foretell outbreaks of the plague.

Because of their association with the other world, ravens were viewed as oracles and teachers of magic.
Ravens gave magical instruction to the Celtic god Lug and to his Norse counterpart Odin. An adept in
the first stage of Mithraic initiation took the title of Raven, which was linked with the lunar sphere. Later
stages carried the titles of Bridegroom, Warrior, Lion, Persian, Sunrunner, and Pater. A fourteenth
century Italian manuscript said that the high position and honor would surely come to a person who
owned an amulet showing a raven standing on a serpent's tail. Among the Eskimo, Siberians, and
Indians of some northwestern American tribes, Raven was a major god who married the Great Mother,
brought dry land out of the sea, and finally sacrificed himself to provide magical wisdom for men. In
Christian tradition, however, ravens were often said to be the souls of wicked persons.
