For the old authors druids have in their functions following attributions:
three religious aspects exposed by Caesar
- theology and metaphysic speculation
- sacrifices
- practical worships, rites and various the teaching function with the transmission of the traditional doctrines.
The function judges and advising political power, collaborating in social coherence. Moreover according to what one knows about Irish druids, druid is not binds to the political power, he advises the king whom it estimates and which he like. Finally it would seem that druids knew a clean structure hierarchie and centralizes
At the sight of these elements it seem that the position of the Romans live has screw of druids do not have being paranoia but a good political vision.
