This fascinating volume covers the history that has fed the legends: the origins, migrations, allegiances, society, culture, myths and literature of the Celts, from the \"Hallstatt Era\" beginning in 1200 BCE to the Gaels of western Scotland and northeastern Ireland and eventual Christianisation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"my-2 [\u0026amp;+p]:mt-4 [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:inline-block [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:pb-2\"\u003eA beautiful edition taking the reader through the origins and history of the mighty Celts, known at the time of Cleopatra and Julius Caesar, this striking companion to \u003cem\u003eCeltic Myths \u0026amp; Legends\u003c\/em\u003e highlights the origins of modern fiction in myth and fable.
