The Origins and History of the Ancient Celts

The ancient Celts were various tribal groups living in parts of western and central Europe in the Late Bronze Age and through the Iron Age (c. 700 BCE to c. 400 CE). Given the name Celts by ancient writers, these tribes and their culture migrated and so they established a presence in territories from Portugal to Turkey.
Although diverse tribes and never a single unified state, the ancient Celts were connected by the Celtic language and marked similarities in art, modes of warfare, religion, and burial practices. Although the Celtic culture was absorbed within the Roman Empire from the 1st century BCE, Celts continued to thrive in more remote parts of Europe like Ireland and northern Britain where Celtic languages are still spoken today.
The ‘Celts’ - Definition & Problems
The term ‘Celts’ is commonly used to refer to peoples who lived in Iron Age Europe north of the Mediterranean region prior to the Roman conquest after ancient writers gave them that name. However, it is a problematic label. This is because these peoples were not part of a unified state but, rather, belonged to a multitude of tribes, many of which had no direct contact with each other. The term remains useful for its convenience but it does disguise the complex relations between different western and central European tribes, the overlapping of some cultural features in time and space, and the isolation and uniqueness of other such features. The European Iron Age was certainly a vibrant period of cultural interaction, trade relations, warfare, and migrations.

Was a fight to decide who was the most powerful man on the village, and fought as a means of a ritual initiation from adolescent males to become a real man in ancient times. Look at the root word "GAL-hofa", again we have the ethnonym of GAL, which this tribes of celts used a lot to call themselves

    The strongest piece of evidence arguing for the Celts from the West theory is that the closest relatives of the Celtic languages were the languages of the Lusitani and the Vettones in West-Central Iberia; they were basically Celtic but retaining original PIE P which had been lost in the Celtic languages proper. Since normally the widest variety of languages is found near the birthplace of that language, one can argue that Late Western PIE must have evolved into Celtic somewhere in Iberia and then spread eastward into Central Europe; however, the truth is that the picture is complicated severely by the fact that these people were quite nomadic, and it is still possible that Celtic may have appeared near Halstatt and those para-Celtic Vettones and Lusitani migrated sometime in the Bronze-Iron Dark Ages to Iberia from the Alps such that they left no traces of their former location.

    So far as it's shown here the Celtic warriors seemed to be equally equipped as Caesar's legionaires (e.g. the "Monteforino" helmet, swords, shields, chainmails etc.) - but probably not as well organized and armed en masse as the Romans. It is also interesting that even as late as the 6th century AD the neck ring - seen already on the ancient BC-Sculpture of the "wounded Gaul" at 10:41 -, was still a badge identifying the wearer as a Roman soldier, even if he was not wearing armour. It can be seen in the famous Ravenna mosaic depicting the Emperor Justinian and the bodyguard to his left, wearing such Celtic rings. In a smaller form such rings (torques) were worn as military decorations on armor or as armrings since the early Roman Empire.

    Regarding the calendar, it is known that the lunar calendar (used by a wide array of cultures) is technically more accurate over the longer term than the solar calendar (no leap year, etc.). It is interesting to think that so many cultures have developed a lunar calendar independently. I assume the reason could be that the moon is more of an influence in northern Europe, as the longer nights of the winter is an influence on their culture, while in hotter climates, night is the only time where real work can be done, and people slept in the day.

    I love the weird, not entirely told story of how Julius Caesar's authority over the Roman calendar helped him to defeat Pompey. Basically, Caesar had some religious offices as well as his political and military responsibilities -- one of which meant he was in the charge of the Roman calendar, which by his time was way out of whack. (It's quite likely he would have known the Gallic calendar was better, as a professional appreciation.) Still, DOING anything about it was never a high priority for him, at least not until he reached the peak of his authority until that whole Ides of March thing. Then when Caesar needed to move an army from Italy to Greece, somehow his rival commanding the enemy fleet got the time of tides and storms wrong, which helped Caesar get his army to Greece intact and defeat Pompey. Makes you wonder what the deeper story was.

    Well the Celts are actually related ethnically to Canaanite religious population as well which were conquered by Aryan descended population whom traveled around the world. The Canaanites had sects of moon worship and through astrology the moon is considered feminine. The ancient Aryan descended populations interacted with a great many cultures and transferred religious/spiritual ideas to many places. Native Americans before crossing the Bering straight were once a brother peoples to the ancient Aryans and thus they once shared a culture and similar religious ideals. Think about the story of the Tower of Babel and a world once existing where everyone spoke the same language. The Tower of Babel is actually a reference to religious/spiritual and thus cultural cooperation amongst all the people. Which would prevent warring due to most wars being caused by such strifes. It would be like building a massive complex and putting elements from all modern religious or spiritual schools of thought into one area. It’s quite common for religious or spiritual movements to be re-crafted in such a way to win over a population that might see your culture as too disparate from their own. The Romans did this with the Greeks by building temples or statues to Greek deities or formulating the Roman deities to take on some of the attributes of the Greek deities. Most early deities and worship was based mostly in nature, ancestors, genitalia or intercourse and planet worship. The act of taking on attributes or teaching of several religions is called religious syncretism and in today’s age we have movements like Theosophy or New Age schools of thought which do just this.

    My biggest doubt about the Celtic from the West theory is that the Celtiberians were surrounded by non-Celtic, even non-indo-European, speaking peoples but there is no evidence of linguistic exchange between them, which would have been likely if they had spent millennia there. By contrast there is evidence of linguistic exchange between the neighboring languages of Central Europe and Celtic which could imply a common origin there and a long time in the area.

    I believe it is much more ancient than that. In ancient Greek literature, Celt is the son of Heracles and Celtini, the daughter of King Breton. Your history is ancient and lost due to cataclysms, invasions and the Abrahamic bias. Celt in ancient Greek means he who rides horses.

    Honestly when it comes to historians at least from my perspective this isn't a subject you should be afraid of unless you go on and on about how "primitive, barbaric and savage" the Celts were especially when modern scientific evidence directly opposes this language. I think the same would happen if you used such language against any surviving peoples like the descendants of the Vikings we rarely use such language to describe the Vikings as "primitive savage backward barbarians" but that's exactly the language used by contemporary sources from that time. So for me that's the only problem I have with historians is when they use hateful language and political statements about the Celts instead of sticking to the actual facts.

    The Celtic Fringe is a Oxford myth cooked up by the polymath keeper of the Ashmolean Museum, and popularised in a book called The Antiquities of Nations. The integrity of our ancient Celtic identity is, it seems, bogus. “There never was a Celtic invasion of Ireland or Britain. The identity our Celtic of Ireland, Scotland, Wales and Brittany dates back, not to the mists of time, but to 1707” (Just after the first Act of Union in fact). Edward Lhuyd, brilliantly, argued that Gaelic, Cornish, Breton and Welsh were related to the language spoken by the ancient Gauls. He called these languages “Celtic” (largely because the term Gallic then denoted the hated French) and suggested that they had spread to Britain and Ireland through migration. In an intellectual culture saturated with classical learning, the link with the “Keltoi” who had invaded ancient Greece, and with the Gauls whom Caesar slaughtered and described, was flattering, not least in Ireland. Instead of being marginal people, we were the remnants of an ancient and once all-powerful European civilisation. With the rise of 19th-century cultural nationalism, this ready-made genealogy, with its neat racial distinction between Celts and Saxons, was far too useful to be refused. In an era obsessed with so-called scientific racism, it provided a seemingly natural case for Irish independence. There is an Iron Age material culture that is evident in findings from northern Europe between Paris and Prague. It is named after a site in Switzerland called La Tène and is associated with what we call the Celts (there is no evidence that these people ever used the term or even identified themselves as a single ethnic group). And none of the things you would find if these people invaded or migrated to Ireland - their pots, their houses, their burial-sites, their coins, their horse-fittings - exist here. There are high-end La Tène-style objects, but virtually all of them are of recognisably local manufacture. As Barry Raftery, one of the leading authorities on Iron Age Ireland, puts it of the presumed Celtic invasion, “It seems strange that a warrior aristocracy supposedly responsible for imposing so many aspects of its culture on the indigenous population . . . should have had almost no impact on the archaeological record.” In fact, what both archaeology and genetic studies show is continuity - broadly the same people who built Newgrange continuing to inhabit the island, speaking a version of the language of the Atlantic seaboard from which they had originated. What did happen in the Iron Age is that an emergent aristocracy began to adopt the international style they knew from trade and other contacts.

    The Celts were certainly closely related to the Scythians/Sarmatians, probably having immigrated from eastern or south-eastern Europe. Curiously, nothing is known of violent conflicts between the continental Germans and Celts, so there must have been some similarities. There was never any major hostilities with the eastern Slavic peoples either, presumably because they all belonged to a large family of peoples originally from the Eurasian East, from the Caucasus to the Urals and West Siberia?! The Romans could hardly distinguish between Celts, Germans and Slavs, here in Vienna where I live all three groups have been at home for almost 2000 years (Roman province "Pannonia"). The "joke" is that they still live next to each other more than with each other even though they all look the same.🤔😄

    It's a very good video & history lesson but I am always amused that every single piece ever made on the Celts starts with the self-serving introduction that talks about they were a remarkably or uniquely fearsome military force - with every drawing depicting them like the muscle-bound Conan The Barbarian. What group that left a historic mark wasn't warlike and fierce ? Visigoths, Vikings, Vandals, Huns, Mongols, other Germanic Tribes, Apache, Comanche, all the so-called "Sea Peoples" of the late bronze age, dozens more. The 50% or so of Americans with some amount of Celtic ancestry never get tired hearing this. Why can't ancient Celts ever be pitched as just another group of nomadic people trying to survive in a harsh period of the world? Take a look at the modern Irish or Scottish and there are your Celts - just regular folks like the rest of us lol.

    Well, they were certainly not "just regular folks like the rest of us lol." In fact, no one in history has been so fabulously wealthy as we are, although some may have been nearly as decadent. The truth is that the geographers of the Ancient world do speak of several peoples who were much less warlike than the Gauls - for instance, the Turduli of Southern Spain were considered more advanced and certainly less warlike than their Iberian and Celtiberian neighbours. The same can be said of the Phoenicians, even though they might have been very good sailors and merchants. The Nabataeans, as well, were great merchants and desert travellers, but not particularly fearsome warriors. In the modern era, the Circassians were known as exceptionally docile and a big source of slaves for the Mamluks and the Ottomans. The list goes on; but the Gauls were quite warlike.

    🇮🇹The Celts in Italy From the beginning of the 4th century BC, hordes of Celts crossed the Alps several times, settling in areas of the Italian territory, carrying out looting and destroying many of the Etruscan cities further north. In Northern Italy many ancient local populations of the Ligurian stock (for example the Taurini) merged with the Celts. They were finally subdued by the Romans during the Punic Wars. According to Tito Livio at the beginning of the 4th century BC a horde of Celts led by the chief Belloveso crossed the Alps and occupied the territory of Milan which took the name of Insubria from the name of the starting territory in Gaul. The horde was made up of Celts from the tribes of Arverni, Aulerci, Ambarri, Biturgi, Carnuti, Edui and Senoni. Aside from the Senones who advanced south, the rest of the horde took the name of Insubrius Gauls. The Gesati were Celtic mercenaries from the Rhone region who fought alongside the Insubres. They were defeated by the Romans at Talamone in 225 BC and in 222 BC their king Viridomaro was killed in a duel by the consul Marco Claudio Marcello who consecrated the opima spolia to Jupiter Feretrio. The Anari Gauls were settled in the Oltrepò Pavese area and perhaps in Piacentino, they allied themselves with the Romans in 223 BC The Carni settled in Carnia. The Graioceli in the Moncenisio area, and in the Lanzo Valleys. From their name derives the name of the Graian Alps. The Salassi lived in Aosta Valley and in the Canavese area. The Taurini in Turin. The Insubri between Milan and Cremona. The Orobi between Como and Bergamo. The Cenomani Gauls around Brescia. The Boi in Emilia. The Lingoni around Ferrara. The Senones had settled in Monferrato from where they left on looting expeditions to Ravenna, Siena, Talamone, Chiusi, Arezzo. Commanded by their leader Brenno they went as far as Rome.

    For the sake of historical accuracy, please correct the historical misinformation @31:40 - the Celts in Ireland never had their own form of Christianity. They were always united to Roman Christianity on every point required to be considered in union with Rome. While the Celts did have their own culture and ways of living out their faith, and they did have a disagreement about the dating of Easter, none of this constituted a schism or a different Christianity. To this day, there are many different "rites" within the Roman Church, all of which contain their own cultures and traditions but are still in union with Rome. There seems to be a misunderstanding about what constitutes a different form of Christianity versus holding different cultural traditions. It may seem like a fine point to debate, but it is important not to mislead the public into believing the Celts were not in union with Rome in the matter of their faith when they always were.

Maybe that's the right way we should be living. With modern technology and our instinct to cooperate we can have a more peaceful and equitable world.

    Cornwall isn’t England: Constitutional Status of Cornwall -) "I can find no de-jure joinder of Cornwall to England." (G.D.Flather QC, Boundary Commission 1988). -) "The whole territorial interest and dominion of the Crown in and over the entirety of Cornwall is vested in the Duke of Cornwall." Which makes Cornwall a separate realm, with a separate ruler. See the "Duchy v Crown Foreshore Dispute 1855-59"; and "Bruton v the Duchy of Cornwall 2011". On both occasions, the High Court upheld this statement from then (1855) Attorney-General of the Duchy of Cornwall, Thomas Pemberton-Leigh. -) The Duchy of Cornwall Estates are not the Duchy of Cornwall. It's just a private business of estates accrued over centuries attached to it, and absent from the three Duchy Charters of 1337-8. It would be a mighty strange private business that can: 1.) rule a nation; 2.) have the power to convene a fully legislative parliament; 3.) benefit from bona vacantia estates and bankrupt companies; 4.) have right of wreck and royal fish; 5.) appoint an Attorney-General and a Vice Admiral, as well as the High Sheriff (appointed by the Crown everywhere else but Cornwall). The Duchy estates can do none of these, but the Duchy of Cornwall can, and does when it pleases them to do so. The Duchy of Cornwall last convened Cornwall’s parliament in 1752, and it can do so tomorrow if it wants. It still appoints the officer whose job it is to do that when instructed: the Lord Warden of the Stannaries.

    Wikipedia sums this up * Cornwall is a county on England’s rugged southwestern tip. It forms a peninsula encompassing wild moorland and hundreds of sandy beaches, culminating at the promontory Land’s End.

    "Celtic Race". Are you kidding me? What race? Didn't you say the Celts were the Gauls? And that the Hallstades preceded the Celts? And that the Celts were related to the Etruscans?

    According to ancient Greek literature, Keltis (Celt), the son of Heracles with Keltini, was also called Galatis (Gaul). (Κελτης, Γαλάτης, Κελτινη google search it if you like..). That s what Pausanias wrote back then anyways. (Παυσανίας).

    I am stopping this video right after the first 4 minutes after hearing that celts and their immediate predecessors "were nomadic/somewhat nomadic". Hearing that you know that this is not serious historical content.
