Definition
An alternate spelling or variant of Beltane, the ancient Celtic festival of fire celebrated at the beginning of May.
Etymology
From Old Irish 'Bealtaine' with variant spelling. This represents a different romanization of the same Gaelic festival name that appears in historical texts.
Kelly Says
Different scholars spell Beltane different ways depending on whether they're transliterating from Irish, Scottish Gaelic, or old manuscripts—it's the same ancient fire festival, just wearing different linguistic clothes!
