It is from a cold latitude, so the winters are not kind for people, you needed your tribe to survive.
It is also called Yule. In Dutch we write that sound as: Joel.
In that time, there was a region (Ouwe or Gouw) full of hills and trees and no rivers"The Vale Ouwe" (Now it is written as "Veluwe") , the region south of it, full of rivers, was called "The Bate Ouwe" (now it is written as "Betuwe"). one of the Hills on the "Vale Ouwe" is still named: Joel-Heuvel or Yule-Hill.
It was the place where the Druid brought the tribe to make noise and fire to make the darkness go away and the light to return on the Winter Solstice. Nowadays we have firework to do that.
When a group of people are shouting together it still is called: "Joelen".
To you also Julian, Amen.
Hopeful wishes of peace and joy to all beings of good will. Thank you Julian.
Happy Christmas, Julian & all
Every major religion and some minor ones -- except the Zios -- shares a single message in one form or another: the Golden Rule
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:The_Golden_Rule_in_multiple_religions.svg.
The Zios have perverted its meaning to "he who has the gold makes the rules."
Merry Christmas to all.
Thank you Julian, the same to you. And thank you also for the humanity in your articles.
Glad the spirit found you . Joy and happiness
My sentiments too Julian.
Best wishes Julian
I call it the Winter Solstice...
It is much older than Jesus.
