Picts is a collective name for the tribes of what we now know as Scotland

Unfortunately for you the Pictish people, like most of their day were completely illiterate and as such did not record their history, mythology or practices and since their cultural legacy (although not their genetic one) has been wiped off the earth before they had chance to record anything it's essentially lost.

It may serve your purposes however to study Roman records of Pictish activity from the Roman occupation period and to study the practices of Brythonic Celts with whom the Picts were related and lumped together as "Britons" by the Romans. It is generally assumed that Pictish religion was analogous to the Celtic polytheism practiced in the rest of the British Isles before the migration age.

Years ago, I read a book by Raymond Buckland. I believe the title was "The Pictish Way."
