The term "megalithic" is derived from the Greek words "mega," meaning "great" or "large," and "lithos," meaning "stone." It refers to large stone structures or monuments, often associated with prehistoric cultures, that were built for various purposes, including burial, ceremonial, or astronomical functions. Megalithic sites are found worldwide, with notable examples including Stonehenge in England and the megaliths of Malta. These structures highlight the engineering skills and social organization of ancient societies.
Before the Celts, Britain was inhabited by various prehistoric groups, primarily the Neolithic and Bronze Age peoples. These early inhabitants included hunter-gatherers and later agricultural communities who left behind megalithic structures, such as Stonehenge. The region saw a mix of cultures influenced by migrations, including the Beaker culture. By around 600 BCE, the Celts began to establish themselves in Britain, becoming the dominant culture.

The Megalithic era is generally considered to have spanned from around 5000 to 2000 BCE, although the exact dates can vary depending on the region. In different parts of the world, megalithic structures such as Stonehenge in England and the megalithic tombs of Europe and Asia were built during this period.
