Early Immigrants who most likely came from Scotland. The Celts had the advantage of weapons and etc. for conquest over Ireland. Most of the people who came to Ireland before the Celts, from the Continent via Scotland, were Dene-Caucasians. This large language family was all over Europe before the Indo-Europeans arrived.
Contrary to popular belief, the first people to come to Ireland are thought to have come from Spain by boat and were not Celts.
The Celts or Britons were the people who lived in Britain before the Normans, Anglo-Saxons or Romans invaded; and they are still there.

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 :(
They never did, they're still here.
Celts lived in many parts of Ireland. There is evidence of them in many places. Archaeologists have found artefacts from the Celtic era in different parts of Ireland.

The Celts or Britons were the people who lived in Britain before the Normans, Anglo-Saxons or Romans invaded; and they are still there.
The Celts lived all over Europe: but in the successive waves of invasions - the Romans, and after the fall of Rome a whole series of barbarians - they were driven further and further West, until the remained clinging to the edge of Europe in what is known as the Celtic fringe: Scotland, Ireland, Wales, Cornwall, Brittany. The Celts lived in central Europe: northern France, part of Holland, Belgium, England, and parts of Switzerland. These lands had long been settled by the warlike Celts. Soon after 500 BC, the Celts wandered east and west in search of fertile farm land. Around 390 BC, the Celts even invaded Rome and sacked the city. It took two hundred years for the Romans to drive the Celts from Italy.
Ireland gets its name from Éiru - a goddess and member of a (possibly) mythological race who inhabited Ireland before the Celts - the Tuatha de Danann.
Celts have not died out. Descendants of the Celts can be found living in Cornwall, Scotland, Ireland, Wales and Brittany.
