The Celts of the British Isles

Of all the people of the ancient world, the Celts are definitely one of the most interesting groups. These brave warriors spent centuries moving throughout Central and Western Europe, defeating virtually everyone they encountered along the way. Although they remained in separate groups, often even warring with one another, the Celts were bound by a shared culture. Their language, religion, and even artwork and jewelry were truly their own. Much of this culture lives on today, especially in Britain, Ireland, and Scotland, in the artifacts the Celts left behind and the history that they made together.
