I agree with Punk Aholic but disagree with gorgonseye, while it does seem to relate to Irish mythology the main reason is due to the mention of Flidais in the White Goddess, which is what the whole album is about. I don't mean that his analysis of humans causing her to be overthrown was wrong, though the book itself in fact refers to worships of male gods instead of female gods causing Flidais to be overthrown. Also, for FlidaisKezia1028, the celts allowed women to be warriors and considered them equals to men in many cases. Though Flidais was overthrown by a male god (i.e. Jesus), much of the new religion was identical to the old one, so you could argue that "[their] goddess gave birth to [that] god".
