The Celts
The Celts
This issue is devoted to the art and civilization of the Celtic peoples who, during the last 1,000 years of the pre-Christian era, established themselves in a vast area of Europe stretching from the Danube to Ireland. Modern scholarship is gradually piecing together the history of the Celts and unravelling many of the mysteries surrounding the relics of their culture.
New disciplines and scientific techniques are revealing the originality of Celtic civilization and throwing fresh light on its extraordinary contribution to world art.
