The Celts did not die out. The Irish and Scottish ethnic groups are among modern Celtic peoples.The Celts, did not die out. The modern Celts, are the Irish, Scottish, Welsh, Manx, Britons and the Cornish. It is believed that 15-20% of England has Celtic heritage. There are even some Celtic descents around mainland Europe, including Italy or France, or even at some point Asia Minor. I am an Irish Australian, and I consider myself Gaelic and Celtic.

The Celts never dominated Europe as they were not one people in the accepted sense, rather were they loosely formed tribes.They are variously described as Iberian or Berber Celts or Baltic Celts, either very short and swarthy or abnormally tall and ginger haired which tends to suggest that the early writers about them -the Romans were mistaking them for another group of people altogether, possibly a vanished Germanic tribe.The Iberian Celts similarly have vanished as a tribe or tribes, but some say that the dark, swarthy inhabitants of the Scottish highlands and small pockets on the Irish West coast islands resemble their desert forebears who came from North Africa.AnswerMany people get confused over this. Calling the gauls Celtic etc. But they were a tall Germanic people not Celtic. The Berber Amazigh Celts from north Africa never got across Europe. They made it to Iberia / Basque / Southern Ireland.
I know for sure that the Celts were Ireland, and I'm almost as sure that the same people were in Scotland. That or the Irish Celts invaded Scotland. I read a book but can't remember exactly... sorry :(
The Celts are a group of people that are natives from Ireland. They are sort of like druids in their mysticism, they are the ones who named the team the Boston Celtics because of the heavy Irish demographnic in Boston.
