I noticed that when reading about the development of pagan religions there seems to have been a primary focus on Roman, Greek, and Egyptian mythology and rituals at least in the pathways developed in Great Britain. I know that W. B. Yeats and several other during his time recorded the beliefs of the people of Ireland and used the Celtic gods and goddesses in their writings but for the most part it appears to be a minority in the developing organizations with pagan affiliation. This is at least the way it seems from what I have read and it was not until the 1980's does there seem to be a focus where celtic beliefs and mythology are predominate.
I hope I am wrong and would like to know if there were earlier practices with Celtic beliefs as the primary source without all of the influence of Rome, Greece, and Egypt. If not was there a reason that the celtic beliefs were not more predominant especially in countries which were Celtic at least at one point.
