Ovates : ウィキペディア英語版
Vates

The English-Latin noun ''vates'' is a term for a prophet, following the Latin term. It is the origin of the English term ovate for an Irish bard. The earliest Latin writers used ''vātēs'' ((:ˈwaːteːs) to denote "prophets" and soothsayers in general; the word fell into disuse in Latin until it was revived by Virgil.〔(Vates )〕 Thus Ovid could describe himself as the ''ラテン語:vates'' of Eros (''Amores'' 3.9).
According to the Ancient Greek writers Strabo,〔(Ovates or Vates: The Shamans )〕 Diodorus Siculus,〔 and Poseidonius, the ' () were one of three classes of Celtic priesthood, the other two being the druids and the bards. The Vates had the role of seers and performed sacrifices (in particular administering human sacrifice) under the authority of a druid according to Roman and Christian interpretation. Their role therefore corresponded to that of an Adhvaryu in Vedic religion. The Celtic word ' is continued by Irish ' "prophet, seer," and ''gwawd'' "scorn, satire, scoff" in Welsh.
==Etymology==

It is unknown whether the Latin and Gaulish usages are cognates, or if the former should be considered a Celtic loanword. The word may be derived from a PIE root ' " to inspire, spiritually arouse"; however that root cannot be shown to go back to Proto-Indo-European, since it is only certainly attested for Celtic and Germanic (though it may be present natively in Italic).
Virgil uses the Latin ''ラテン語:vannus'' "winnowing fan" (from ', compare Old High German ', modern German ''ドイツ語:Wedel'', with the same meaning, from ') for something borne about in the Bacchic festival, suggesting that the root may have had an ecstatic sense in Italic also.
In pagan Rome the vates resided on the Vatican Hill, the Hill of the Vates. The Vatican Hill takes its name from the Latin word Vaticanus, a vaticiniis ferendis, in allusion to the oracles, or Vaticinia, which were anciently delivered on the Vatican Hill.〔Sources: Compendious Description of the Museums of Ancient Sculpture, Greek and Roman, in the Vatican Palace, by Cav. H. J. Massi, First Curator of the Vatican Museums and Galleries, Paleographer and Professor of the Italian and French Languages, Rome, Third Edition, 1889, Title page, page 7.〕
Rübekeil (2003) suggested that the name of the Germanic god ' may in fact be an early loanword, an adjective ''
*'' based on Celtic '.
The word is Latin meaning "fortune tellers." The name was also found in the word Vatican, a hillside on the west bank of the Tiber River in Rome where they resided. When the papacy was returned to Rome from Avignon (France) in the 14th Century, the Vatican became the residence of the Pope, and the word Vatican came to refer to the enclave in the middle of Rome that had become the seat of the Roman Catholic Church.
