Ah, I love this stuff so much. Before the Romans even set foot on British soil, there was over 1,200 years of history. Kingdoms and battles and lovers and betrayels. All of it. I wish the Celts wrote down or documented these, but we have awesome artefacts like hillforts and hoards. And then we have standing stones like Stonehenge which was 2,000 years before the Celts even stepped onto Britain!

[@imemberberry]

We only have limited information to go off of unfortunately, usually imperial scribes writing about them, not much actual source code from Celts. Publius Tacitus wrote that a man from Briton could speak to a man from Anatolia with no language barrier for hundreds of years. Leads me to believe that while "Celts" or "Gauls" or "Goths" never considered themselves as such, there was a sort of anti-empire tribal understanding that preserved language and culture against the Greek and Roman empires of antiquity. It's like.. they weren't working together, but they hated the empires more than each other and over hundreds of years certain customs became universal.

This documentary did a fantastic job of coherently linking the ancient continental celts with the Britons that descended from them, leading up to the clashes with the Anglo-Saxons which transitions somewhat neatly into the Normans and modern times.

Love to hear about the ancient history of my home, I have lived in Ramsgate all my life and Pegwell Bay today is a well preserved nature reserve for nesting birds. It’s a lovely place to go for a walk just don’t hit the nature reserve. To think that 2100 years ago it was the site of Roman Eagles landing on the shore of Britain to now being the well protected site for Turtle Doves and other nesting birds strikes a stark contrast. Thank you for this excellent video. There is the Replica Hugin Viking Longboat about half a mile up the coast from Pegwell Bay in Cliffsend which was gifted by the Danish in 1949 to commemorate 1500 years since the Anglo-Saxon invasion and there is a sign near it saying Kent Welcomes Viking Invaders as a dual historical reference. As well, the town of Ramsgate is the site where St Augustine brought Christianity to the British Isles. Our little corner of the country is steep with important pivotal national history but we scarcely advertise it. Hopefully that will change in years to come.

Most celtic peoples believed in reincarnation as well. It's one of the major reasons why the romans stomped out the druids. Belief in reincarnation made celtic warriors too rebellious.

[@iainrendle7989]

Really.....it was more to do with the excuse using the Druidic practice of human sacrifice that was abhorant to the Romans, but rather the power held by the Druids in the Celtic tribes and the fact that they were a glue between different tribes, so therefore did not benefit the Roman normality of divide and conquer. The Druids believed in Rebirth rather than reincarnation.....and reason why badly sick people were euthanised, and only after the creation of modern Druidism was reincarnation referred to.

There is some evidence that some groups of "britons" speaking some form of brythonic might of still been around in Eastern England in the late saxon or early Norman periods.

thanks for teaching the world about my ancient British ancestors culture and history yes many things we know about the ancients comes from roman documents as celts didn't write history or events those were passed through story's and songs modern druids still exist in the British Iles today hosting traditional ancestor ritual's but these are small on scale the modern druids host events on the Celtic holidays of summer, solstice winter, solstice and the Celtic new year Samhain
