Description

Celeste Allegrea Adams traveled around the world, exploring ancient and modern mythic traditions and ritual, for the purpose of creating myths for the future. Her passion for adventure and for understanding the mythology and spirituality of people in all cultures led to lengthy travels and pilgrimages to sacred sites around the world. As a teenager she explored the Gaspe Peninsula in Canada and hitchhiked through Europe and the Near East. She visited archaeological sites in Turkey, Lebanon, Syria, Israel, Egypt, Tunisia and Morocco, and the islands in the Mediterranean. She lived in a Berber village on the Sahara Desert that was visited each week by the Tuaregs, and camped with the Bedouins along the Red Sea. While attending a saga conference in Iceland, she helped to uncover a city buried by a volcano. She also traveled through Central America, and explored archaeological sites in Mexico and Guatemala and also had the opportunity to tour Cuba. Most recently, she traveled through northern Brazil, and spent a considerable amount of time at the pilgrimage center in Abadiania, where Joao de Deus offers healings at the Casa de Dom Inacio. As an undergraduate in NYC, she received a degree in Comparative Religion and Archaeology, then went on to study ancient languages, including ancient Greek and Egyptian Hieroglyphics. At Columbia University she studied Akkadian and was an Assistant Editor of the Journal of Ancient Near Eastern Studies. She attended graduate school at NYU in Social Anthropology on a Title VI NDFL Fellowship, but her plans to pursue a Ph.D. in Anthropology changed when she began working on a number of NYU and Columbia University graduate student films and received a scholarship to study screenwriting at the American Film Institute. Celeste worked as a Researcher on numerous documentaries including Helena Solberg
