Mari Lwyd: The Welsh Horse Skull Who Wants Your Beer

The Mari Lwyd is a Welsh winter and new year tradition dating back at least 200 years, and it's one that's become internet famous this year due to her appearance in Assassin's Creed: Valhalla (YAY!). I need to make one, you need to know more about them. This video does both!
Join me as I look at the tradition itself, the culture around it, some of Europe's similar festive horsies, and, of course, we make a Mari Lwyd!
Blwyddyn newydd dda! Happy new year!
