When you are a history nerd all of them are cool. Roman, Spartan, Illyrians, Goth, Scythians and Sarmatians, Dacian, Gauls, Celtic, Norse etc. They all have cool stories and interesting cultures to read about and be amazed of the kind of life someone from that era lived.

The celts have always had my respect, as a Greek I view them as ancient cousins of Europe. It’s a shame that their cultural identity was wiped out from most of mainland Europe, and I hope that the Welsh, Scots, Irish, Brittons, and people of Cornwall, preserve their cultures and languages as best they can, so that one day, hopefully they are revived

Deutsch call Hungarian-Macar-Scythians German in form of UnGar and not themselves similarly to others since Ugar,HonGri,VenGri,WanGer...Ó'ghur,Onoguri refers to Hungarian-Macar-Scythians. As for the Celt as Kelt it is a Hungarian-Macar-Scythian word reffeeing to East as to place where sun rises. So called Halstatt culture has nothing to do with Western groups like Deutsch or Danish etc.

The Celtic language, Breton, is still spoken in Brittany in the French state ... despite the best efforts of the French and Jacobin to suffocate the language. Breton is a sister language of Welsh (my language) and Cornish, not as close as Dutch and German, maybe more like French and Spanish. The grammar is similar - like all Celtic languages they have mutations where the first letter of a word can mutate to another sound e.g. c => g; b => f/v etc. And many many words are similar or the same, e.e. bara (bread), byd / bed (world), bro (country), numbering etc etc. There's a strong Latin influence on the Welsh language as Brythonic (ancient Welsh/Cornish/Breton) was the language of the whole of Britain south of Edinburgh, at the time of the Roman conquest. So, over 400 years of Roman occupation many Latin words seeped into the Welsh language e.g. braich (for arm), pont (bridge), ffenestr (window), llaeth (milk) etc.

The Celts were not a nordic people. The name "Celt" is not found natively anywhere in the British Isles, nor in Ireland, nor in northern France. It is only found in southern France and Iberia in items of native peoples. The northern French people and the British Islanders knew themselves probably as Belgae, as that tribe carried its name to both England and Ireland. Otherwise, northern peoples do not have any connection to the name "Celts".

At this pt I daresay most Celts are partially Germanic in heritage. The Celtic regions of Spain were taken over by Germanic leadership, the Celts of France who survived the Roman plunder were then integrated into Germanic confederations, the Belgae seem to have been a kind of inbetween people already from what I can tell, and those of us from Britain obviously had the Saxon and Scandinavian incursions.

@@Cornflakes-sr3nq The whole of Spain is between 29% and 31% Yamnaya directly from Switzerland and southwestern Germany from 2,500 BC to 1,800 BC when the Corded Ware Eastern Bell Beakers mixed with the Iberian Maritime Bell Beakers. So even the Iberians who are the "least Germanic" of the Celts are still almost a third Germanic. The others even more so as expected from being closer to Germany. Keep in mind the most Germanic people are 53% Yamnaya so that is the "upper limit" of current Europeans. Given that, 31% is not little.

I am a Celt who speaks a native Celtic language. I live in a part of Wales that the Romans were unable to conquer. So were the English as it happens. There was a vital highly influential trade relationship between the Celts and Scandinavians that flourished along the Celtic sea between Wales, Cornwall, Ireland and Brittany. The Vikings helped the Cornish fight against the English. When Edward 1st invaded Wales he was defeated in the battle of the Menai Straits by an army that was a third Welsh, a third Irish and a third Viking. At one point, the princes of Gwynedd in Noth Wales had a rightful claim to the thrones of Wales, Ireland and Norway, so strong were the inte-rmarital alliances and connections between the Scandinavians and the Celts of the far North West of Europe. Just for the record........there are ZERO attestations of homosexuality among the Celts of Britain and Ireland. Something that is born out by ancient Welsh traditions and laws..... .......just saying;)

The most important book (in my opinion, for everyone on the planet) regarding the Celtic People and the truth about their lost spiritual traditions and wisdom, their lost civilisation, is the lifeworks of John Lamb Lash; the book “Not In His Image”. Incredibly important, incredibly educational & life-changing read. The truth about the Celtic civilisation has been entirely covered-up by the Christian empire, and they’ve spent literally 2000 years wiping out all traces of the most important teachings. Look at the book’s reviews. It’s a mind-blowing read; infuriating, enlightening, beautiful & enchanting, etc. Words fail to describe..

On the polygamy issue, yes, the high status men probably did have multiple wives just based on that, but it was also a way for the tribe to take care of the widows and their children. You can't paste modern day society atop of one from 2 or 3 thousand years ago, and say that the women were going to be independent after the husband died, tribes just didn't really work like that for the most part. Which isn't to say that a wealthy widow necessarily needed to remarry, there are always a lot of complexities in any society that encouraged things to conform to their own tradition and to making the tribe strong.

While I can entertain the idea that Celts that got caught up in high 'civilization', or romanized society might have been more susceptible to homosexuality and promiscuity, its very silly to think that this would have been common in their tribal world. I have come across this theory of Germanics being somehow distinguished in this regard, but if you really think about it that doesn't make much sense. The Celts were the main agitators and adversaries of rome, of course they would be subject to more propaganda and mired into historical spectacle. Like you explained these two are very very close genetically and its unlikely the Germanics would have intermarried so much with these groups if they had normalized decadent behavior. Many of their customs and traditions are very similar, why would this be any different? There is also the strict survival aspect of why honor and temperance aspects like monogamy was more important than anything to these people. You needed trust, and you needed people you can rely on in order to survive in such a climate. Purely psychologically, reducing that trust and commitment is disastrous and society only maintains cohesion by removing the survival aspect and putting humans in an artificial environment with distractions. Like the one we have today.

I’m still doing family research on my mothers side, from what I know it’s Swiss German, English and welsh. My fathers side Norwegian, Danish, Swedish, English, German, Dutch, Irish, and welsh.

All of us have many ancestors. All of our ancestors made children until the present day, or we wouldn't be here. Everyone alive has made it through the years by having extremely skilled and hard-working ancestors. We should respect all of them, not just cherry-pick the ancestors that fit a narrative currently being pushed in the world. Anyone going too deep into Germanic or Celtic pride, or any other individual heritage for that matter, is just being weaponized for political gain by other people with influence.

More likely is that many more of them were what we would call bisexual today, but labeling *people* as "homosexual" or "heterosexual" (etc) instead of individual *acts* is a relatively new concept. The Romans were speaking of homosexual *activity*, which does not mean that all the men engaging in sexual acts with other men while on the road were strictly only sexually attracted to other men and never reproduced with women while at home. Idk, it makes a lot of sense to me that if the women had such open views about sex as to feel their culture was superior for broader sexual selection with less shame around it, I doubt that openmindedness about who is permitted to have sex with whomst happened in a vacuum that somehow only pertained to the women of their culture and not the men.

The entire book is a propaganda message - not only attempting to embellish his military achievements, but also to persuade readers that the Rhine river was the boundary between Celtic and Germanic peoples. It wasn't. There were (small) Celtic groups living on the eastern banks, and many Germanic folks on the western side. In fact, before the event of standing armies (e.g., Romans), rivers united people - they dd not separate them.

I have been watching a lot of historians talking about lost people's and they skirt the subject but I think the ancient people's used the appearance of acceptance of homosexuality in a society as the appearance of weakness. At which point they would invade kill the men and sexually enslave the remaining population. I think that the eastern Roman empire understood this and used the migration of the Turks and the emergence of the Varags to deepen their gene pool and extend the length of their rule.

The Irish called themselves Gaels, Goidels, Hibernians, Fenians, etc. No need to go stealing the name of western Iberians and southern French just because you like it and then acting like they can use that name because they might have mixed with the Celts. Don't do that. Let each people have their own name. The people who called themselves Celts in their own names as inscribed in their own personal pottery and tombstones lived mostly in western Iberia with colonies in Narbo and Massilia.

I also think 'it wasn't worth the hassle' and one has to consider the logistic effort for such hugh deplacements of power in an area with little to none open spaces for their legions to roam. As allready mentioned 'the Celts' were more organized than those 'Germanic tribes' , probably living in larger communities, had their cavalry and thus no match/no fear for their 'Germanic neighbours'. A point mostly overlooked is the fact how organised those 'Celtic tribes' could be . Nice example were ' the Belgae' which habitated now called Flanders and across the channel south-mid England and likely the Island of Wight. Building vessels for commerce,transport of any kind , keeping rules and law on both sides of the channel into their community would be no sinecure.

I enjoy all of your videos and find them very well informed. This is the best way to soak up history! It looks like these ancient peoples were moving about a lot, going forward to settle in new lands. It’s difficult to keep them all straight! I look forward to more from you.

That was a funny start. Scythian influence on Kelts, Germans, and Slavs is an important aspect rarely mentioned. I’ve often wondered about Etruscan cultural influence during their losses to early Rome. They “escaped” into the Kelto-Teutonic interphase around the Alps. The Scythian connection to India as well makes it a great cultural messenger between them all. Even the story of the brother kings in Herodotus repeats creation story myths and a cultural intermixture between warrior cults, typically sexually ascetic, and farming cultures with sexual ritualism. It’s an amazing story that Herodotus says depicts that culture’s aggression toward foreign things. The ironic part, however, is that both brothers adopted foreign practices. The one who desired an empire accepted that he had to sacrifice his nomadism. The one who kept the nomadism, however, adopted “Eastern” sexual ritualism due to supposed victory it granted (a typical justification of adopted cults). His promise to perform the sexual ritual in the woods upon his return was punished as his brother shot him in copulation. Ymir was killed “because he was evil” but when we extend the mythic themes we see the Zeus/Io, Minotaur, and Tejas myths justify that the “evil” was sexual promiscuity…also a noticeable quality in Etruscan culture. We could even see the Abrahamic self-circumcision as a Semitic expression of the theme, along with Moses negating the “golden calf” cult. Tacitus mentions a priestly group with bells on their skirts and describes them as effeminate, but this could be a misinterpretation of steppe shamanism where Thunder skirts, with metal “mirrors” that would reflect the sunlight like lightning, are worn. Any shamanic possession might have been considered effeminate by some of his sources, but in the Bagua in China Fire is a daughter and water is a son of Heaven and Earth. Fire makes us more Yang and Water makes us more yin. The Medicine Buddha is blue/Black like Water, expressing the yin nature of compassion for healing intentions. This Bagua association matches Germanic genders of the Sun and Moon, linking as well to the Shakti-Shiva cults in India where Shakti is the “Shock” of energy that dances upon the waist of the blue corpse (Shava) of Shiva when Prāna enters him. Prāna means “forth-breath,” again having a Semitic correspondence when God breaths animus into Adam. Chinese medicine says Heavenly qi enters a baby with its first breath and its last breath is when its spirit leaves at death.

From what I have been researching, it seems like the Celtic people are likely more of a linguistic and cultural (and maybe religious) group than a genetic one. It seems likely it was a culture and language that spread from Central Europe among pre-Existing Indo-European peoples, perhaps with a number of elites on trading routes. But probably not a mass-migration and/or series of invasions akin to the Germanic migration era. For instance, the ancient DNA record in Britain and Ireland shows no sudden massive influx of new DNA to coincide with the appearance of what we recognise as Celtic material culture, in distinction to what we see into England with the Anglo-Saxon migration 1000 years later, or even more so with the arrival of the Bell Beaker people into Britain and Ireland 2000 years earlier (we actually have no idea what language the Bell Beakers would have spoken, other than that it would have been Indo-European). It seems more like the arrival of Celtic material culture, and likely Celtic language, in these islands was accompanied by a small and slow trickle of DNA over a prolonged period. But overall, the genetics of Celtic era Britain and Ireland is pretty much the same as it was in the pre-Celtic Bronze Age.

Julius was close to not conquering Gaul. Vercingetorix had united much of Gaul and at that point the tide could've shifted either way. It took years of struggle before they conquered Gaul. The Romans were brutal towards them committing near genocide. I think it was every 1 in 3 Gauls that were killed during Julius's conquest. Highly recommend checking out "The Celtic Holocaust" by Dan Carlin on his podcast "Hardcore History." He goes into great descriptive detail throughout 6 hours of podcast on the fall of Gaul to Rome. One of the best history podcasts at least when it comes to entertainment value.

It's amazing how diverse the white race is, while still being pure and white. Germanic, Celtic, Slavic, Latin.... Europe is one big family. Do not let the politicans divide us. We are all white, from North to South, from West to the East. We are one people.

There's no such thing as "the white race". There is such a thing as the Indo-European race. Not all I-Es are "White", and not all "white" (European) people are I-Es.

Both finns and hungarians have germanic and slavic influence. Non-european whites are also popular. Even in the middle-east, you can see redhead blue eyed people.

@@tyberius5615 "Yes they are" Who/what is what? "language doesn't matter" Doesn't matter to whom? What do you mean? "Hungarians and Finnish people are also white" What does that have to do with anything? People have different skin colours because they live in different climates. Lighter skin absorbs more vitamin D from sunshine, and darker skin absorbs less, that's scientific fact. "non-European whites are also popular" What the fuck do you think that means? "even in the middle east you can see redhead blue eyed people" What the fuck does that have to do with anything? "if there's no such thing as white race then there's also no such thing as black race" I didn't say there was such a thing as "black race", so what the fuck do you think your point is?
