Ancient Order of Druids

The Ancient Order of Druids (AOD), or simply the Druids, is an English fraternal order, reputedly founded by Henry Hurle at London, England in 1781, with ritual features based on Celtic Druidism, the particulars "resembling those of Freemasonry."

Two later druidic orders originated as subordinate lodges of the A.O.D., the United Ancient Order of Druids (split in 1833), and the Order of Druids (split in 1858).
