Nemeton__Definition: a sacred space of ancient Celtic religion. Nemeta appear to have been primarily situated in natural areas, and, as they often utilized trees, they are often interpreted as sacred groves. However, other evidence suggests that the word implied a wider variety of ritual spaces, such as shrines and temples.

[Thank you, google, since I've forgotten the actual word-for-word definition for a nemeton. ]
