(Fictional drama) Music & Text by FrediXfilms:
The Druids of Avebury are standing in a wide circle inside Stonehenge.
Julius Caesar is watching the event with his advisor, Tacitus from a high hill by the forest together with thousands of Roman legions standing behind them.
Caesar: "Tell me, Tacitus! What are they doing?"
Tacitus: "They are offering to their ancestors! I have seen these kind of ceremonies before. Those are traditions from India that they have brought with them a long time ago!"
Caesar: "It really looks mysterious! They don't seem to carry any weapons!"
Tacitus: "No, Caesar! Druids don't participate in wars! They are the learned priest class. They give advise to warriors though!"
Caesar: "Well, they are lucky that I have listened to you! Otherwise they would have been slaughtered by my legions!"
Tacitus: "Hail, Caesar! I'm glad that I've made you realize that you can make use of them while conquering the rest of the world!
They possess the knowledge of mathematics and astronomy far ahead from the rest of the people of Britannica. Caesar, look!"
The druid standing in the middle of the circle has started to chant. The others join him after a short moment. The magic vibrations of the chanting create a strange mood. Caesar listens with fascination.

(History of the Druids - Stephen Knapp.)
The Druids, who are connected with Stonehenge, were the priests who played a great part in social life in ancient Europe.
Around 3900 BC, the Druhyus marched from northern India, where they lived since 4500 BC, further to the west, then into Europe, where they eventually became the Druids. (Stephen Knapp.)
"The European community called Druids are the ancient Hindu Dravids. The dictionary describes them as an ancient religious order in ancient Gaul, Britain and Ireland. In the Irish and Welsh sagas, and later Christian legends, the Druids appear as conjurers and not as priests and philosophers. This is a clear indication that the Druids of Europe are the same as Dravids of India. They are not racial groups. They are a religious group of priests and philosophers who were deemed to perform miracles through their chants and worship. "
~Stephen Knapp
The term Druid is a European variation of the Sanskrit term Dravid.
The term Dravid relates to the earliest of sagas at the start of the Krita-yuga. The root Dra signifies Drashta, one of the original seers, while the latter syllable vid relates directly to the knower, or the sage himself. Thus, they are from India, as also related on page 483, Volume II of Asiatic Researches by Reverend Thomas Maurice:
"The Asiatic origin of the Druids has long been an acknowledged point in the world of antiquities.
Mr Reuben Burrow, the great practical astronomer of India, was the first person who, after a strict examination and comparison of their mythological superstitions and their periods, directly affirmed them to be a race of emigrated Indian philosophers."
Reverend Maurice continues this line of thought on page 246, Part 1, Volume I of his Antiquities of India: "These priests (the Druids), Brahmins of India, spread themselves widely through the northern regions of Asia, even to Siberia itself, and gradually mingling with the great body of Celtic tribes (Kalatoya people to the South of Kashmir) pursued their journey to the extremity of Europe and finally established the Druid that is the Brahmin system of superstition in ancient Britain.
This I contend was the first Oriental colony settled in these (British) islands."
The Druids colonized the British Islands and established centers in many places in the British Isles, the most important of which were Avebury, Stonehenge, Woodhenge, Malvern, Mona, Tara and Iona.
Even the Celtic people were subject to the authority of the Druids. However, not only did the Druids prosper in Britain, but in "The Complete History of the Druids", it explains that, "The religion of the Druids flourished a long time, both in Britain and Gaul (France). It spread as far as Italy, as appears by Augustus's injunction to the Romans, not to celebrate its mysteries."
As recorded on pages 182-183 of Caesar's Commentaries on the Gallic War, translated by T. Rice Holmes, Julius Caesar explains that the god for whom the Druids had most reverence was Mercury. He was regarded as the inventor of all arts and prosper and guide of travelers, and promotor of commerce and aquisition of wealth.
