hi i just had a question about something i read.

in my World History class, we are doing an enrichment activity, to expand upon something our teacher lightly discussed. i was reading on a site i found, and i found a reference to a Druidic god, Be'al, of which i've never heard of. i was wondering if anyone had any info on him.

here's the site:

try this link

Bulfinch's Mythology (http://www.bulfinch.org/fables/bull41.html)

And to answer the original question, I'll go through all my papers and see what I can find out.

I knew I knew this one!

Be'al is an alternative spelling to Bel (or Bile)

Bel, Bile or Bell, the Irish father-god of healing (http://www.fionabroome.com/history/bel.htm)

Celtic: Bealtaine (http://www.paganspath.com/magik/celtic/bealtain.htm)

These places might give you a good start.
