The Indian Ashvamedha involves the following:

the sacrifice is connected with the elevation or inauguration of a member of the warrior caste[citation needed]
the ceremony took place in springtime
the horse sacrificed was a grey or white stallion
the stallion selected was one which excelled at the right side of the chariot
it was bathed in water
it was sacrificed alongside a hornless ram and a he-goat
the stallion was dissected and its portions awarded to various deities[citation needed]


ROMAN:
The Roman Equus October ceremony involved:

the horse was dedicated to Mars, the Roman god of war
the sacrifice took place on the Ides of October, but through ritual reuse was used in a spring festival (the Parilia)
two-horse chariot races determined the victim, which was the right-hand horse of the winning team
the horse is dismembered: the tail (cauda, possibly a euphemism for the penis) is taken to the Regia, the king's residence, while two factions battle for possession of the head as a talisman for the coming year.

IRISH:
The king (most likely; Geraldus is somewhat indirect) engages in sexual intercourse with the mare to be sacrificed;
The horse is dismembered and cooked in a cauldron, and consumed by the king who is also sitting in the cauldron.

So you cut and pasted a wiki article - how boring

It just shows you how absolutely nuts people were back then. Having said that, people are still nuts but perhaps not quite so extreme.

So I assume the Irish did not sacrifice a Stallion?

I think the old gods want their attention back and they are going to be given it world wide. Burning man type things probably add life inside before the fire is started. The Demons are looking for open worship now.
