A practicing Galatis for over a decade. In those years, a couple of folks and Branos formed Bessus Nouiogalation (BNG), a Gaulish tradition. He was the spiritual leader (The Ueletos) of Touta Galation for few until he left that and created Galatîs Litauiâs and invited others to help in its formation. (Which is still being formed) thanks to you all.
His approach is a little different than others as it is not that of Revival or Reconstructionism but rather that which he calls Reconectionism. He does not dismiss the others; it's just not his outcome. A reconstructionist in his research, a revivalist in his approach, and a reconnectionist in what he crafts.
His focus is that of the Paleolithic to the late Bronze age, but truly all that leads up to what we call Gaul, So he does a lot of looking at European History at a time before the PIE migration into Europe.

As his name suggests, he looks at himself and his symbolic approach towards reconnecting to Gaul as a Raven of the Senodruides (Ancient Druides). As he looks back at them, he can't determine what they truly are doing as he sit in the trees watching from above. But rather he can make out bits and pieces and fly to other places to piece together the shiny things to try and create a form of what they did in today's world, and that's where Drunemeton comes in. Brining the mysteries from the otherworld into this world.
His profession is a Blacksmith/Crafter living in the Mountains of Western North Carolina with his wife, a Multifaceted Holistic Healer, and his Daughter, who is also a crafter. They tend to Nature a lot by doing volunteer work for their community. His passions are his lifestyle ~ not a set of hobbies. He is forthright in his tone and can come off as harsh at times which folks that don't know him can be put off by his personality, which is very jolly with an edge.

Everything is connected in the great cycle of the cosmic order of things, each leading and affecting the other.- Carnutos
This is a philosophical understanding of our wheel and how its symbolic for many elements in our life. We have many spoked wheels and each has its own teaching to follow. This being those of the Ianoi (Virtues) the Îuoi (holidays) and Cantos Roti (Gifting Cycle). As following these wheels aid one in a greater understanding within and outside the self connecting us to the cosmic flow that is all around us.

A word About the Carnutes
The name Carnutian comes from a powerful Gaulish people in the heart of independent Gaul
The great annual Druides gathering took place in the forests around Cenabum (modern day Orleans,France). The Carnutes were one of the reason for the uprising in Gaul against Roman rule. The Carnutes rised up aginst the imperial ocupation in their lands and sent 12,000 fighting men to relieve Alesia from Caesar's invasion into Gaul but shared in the defeat of the Gallic army against Caesar.
We honor the memory of the past to help guide us in the now. The Carnutian is the name that the gods gave to him to work in their names and to remember we once were all free peoples. So in his craft, He wants to give acknowledgment to the Old ways our of the Senocarnutes.
Bringing to light that which has been in the dark for to long.
