Re: ESKILD - derivation and meaning
Neat background info on the sacrificial cauldrons, Daividh. I dunno if the word "kjell" has any relation to the the German "Quelle" or the English "well", but those are certainly interesting parallels that you've drawn.There's mystery in words. No wonder etymology is such a fascinating study. :)-- Nanaea

Thank you Daividh and Nanaea
The baby is due at the end of March - we'll not burden him for life with the sacrificial cauldron aspect but your suggestions will help
