What is Paleopaganism: Term by Isaac Bonewits

Updated on: May 14, 2023

Written by: Dawn Black (Witchipedia)

PaleoPaganism is a subdivision of Paganism put forth by the modern Druid scholar Isaac Bonewits.

According to Bonewits, PaleoPaganism describes any native cultural polytheistic or animist traditions, including those that were, or still are, practiced by native Africans, Americans, Australians and Asians.

According to this definition, Hinduism, Taoism and Shinto are all PaleoPagan religions because they are rooted in ancient indigenous tradition and remain relatively unpolluted by foreign influence.
