Was it the huns? Of course not, the Huns never went to England. Around 9000 BC, there were sharp half-Neanderthal crossbreeds, silent but knowledgeable; clicking and popping Capoids from Morocco; raspy Paleoindians from Scandinavia, who spoke with no vowels; and canny Old Europeans from the Caucasus, who were a mixture of everything. Then a bossy light-brown people from Ethiopia who reproduced at an alarming rate arrived and began to chase them all around. And this is all before the Indo- Europeans, our ancestors, arrived. We were still mucking around in Ethiopia, laughing like hell that the first wave had left.

How many Romans died fighting the Celts?

It is not known. Your question is extremely broad because there were many Celtic groups and the Celts were originally the biggest ethnic grouping in Western Europe. The Romans fought against many of them. They were attacked many times by the Gauls of northern Italy, who were, Celts and then fought them and conquered them in the 3rd century BC. They fought the Gauls of Gallia, who were also Celts, in the Gallic Wars (59-50 BC) when Julius Caesar conquered Gaul and in subsequent Gallic rebellions. Julius Caesar also carried out two expeditions in the southeast of England, which was inhabited by Celts. The Romans fought against the Celtiberians, the Celts of Spain, in the 2nd century BC. They fought against and conquered Noricum (most of Austria and Slovenia) which was inhabited by Celts, in 16 BC. They conquered southern England in 46 AD, Wales between 48 and 79 AD and northern England in 78 AD, all of which were inhabited by Celts. They pushed into Scotland a number of times, but withdrew and the Picts (Celts) of Scotland raided Roman Britain for centuries. As you can see from the above, it would be very difficult to estimate the number of Romans who died in many centuries of fights against Celtic groups.
