".. to unleash the winds and storms by their spells, to metamorphose any animal according to their whim, to cure all disease said to be incurable, and finally, to know and predict the future. But .. they reserved their rememdies and predictions exclusively to those who traveled over the sea expressly to consult them."
-Pomponius Mela, Roman historian, speaking of the Gallicians
