Celts do not seem to have believed in a single God, but there is some evidence to suggest that they believed in around 374 Gods, but as a general rule, there were only 36 or so 'main' Gods and Goddesses.
The Celts are also thought to have believed in life after death, which they referred to as the Otherworld. When you died on earth, your soul was transported to the Otherworld by the God Bile.
Interestingly, they believed that life in the Otherworld went on just like on earth and that when you died in the Otherworld, your soul actually went on to live in another person.
So, whenever a baby was born, there would be a time for sadness and reflection for the person who had died in the Otherworld and whose soul had arrived back in the baby!
However, the Celts did not seem to have any theory or belief system about how or what had created the world.
