Moonspell - Ataegina, with english Lyrics.

I have nothing to do with that culture, but i love the song. Here is some wiki inf:

"Ataegina

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ataegina or Ataecina (Spanish; Portuguese: Atégina) was a chthonic goddess worshipped by the ancient Iberians, Lusitanians, and Celtiberians of the Iberian Peninsula, and one of the most important Iberian deities. She was goddess of rebirth (spring), fertility, nature, the moon, and healing.

It is believed Ataegina's name comes from the Celtiberian ate gena "reborn". Sociologist Moisés Espírito Santo argues that the name combines Atta and Jana, the first being an epithet of the archetypal mother-goddess and the latter indicating the Roman deity Jana (partner to Janus) or, quite possibly, the moon goddess Diana. Espírito Santo also argues that Ataegina is a composite deity arising from syncretic tendencies.

The animal sacred to Ataegina was the goat. She had a devotio cult, in which someone would call on the goddess to ask for healing, or occasionally curse someone, results ranging from slight afflictions to death.

Ataegina was worshiped in Lusitania and Betica; there were also sanctuaries dedicated to Ataegina in Elvas (Portugal), and Mérida and Cáceres in Spain, along with other places, especially near the Guadiana river. She was one of the main goddesses worshiped in Myrtilis (today's Mértola, Portugal), Pax Julia (Beja, Portugal) and especially the city of Turobriga, whose precise location is unknown. She is known from several inscriptions in the Tagus region and Baetis (Guadalquivir) valley, and where she was identified with the Roman goddess Proserpina: 'ATAEGINA TURIBRIGENSIS PROSERPINA'. She was often depicted carrying a cypress branch."

Angra é uma otima banda brasileira conceituada a nível mundial. Moonspell é muito bom mas rebatendo alguns comentários aqui vistos, os portugueses não fizeram nada pelo Brasil, além de matarem nossos índios e roubarem nossas riquezas, fizeram uma colônia escravista de exploração que tem consequencias até hoje na segregação, desigualdade e discriminação social e racial. Quem construiu o Brasil foram os negros, às custas de muito sangue e chibata e a única coisa que os portugueses nos legaram de bom foi sua culinária, música e arte porque de resto só restou o estrago feito por uma exploração desmedida, desorganizada e subserviente a Inglaterra. vão estudar história, mas não a historia contada pela elite branca, mas a verdadeira história, aquela construída pelos povos que tão covardemente foram massacrados e explorados em nosso solo.

A ella en concreto se la adoraba en la zona celta, aunque bien es cierto que en zonas fronterizas en las que había más mezclas ;-)

En serio? no se yo lo poco que habia leido del tema es que era una diosa de la fertilidad que adoraban los lusitanos y otros pueblos iberos pero vamos tampoco se muxo de ello, aun con todo celtas habia por toda Europa pero aqui en la peninsula se mezclaron con los iberos fprmando nuevas tribus
