Are Celts barbaric why?

Celts were not in-fact barbaric. yes, there was alot of clan fighting in the later 15th-16th centries between one or two clans, but then again alot of countries all around the world fought amogst themselves and still do. People think that they were particularly barbaric in around 43AD and beyond, but the Scots were only defending their country from people attempting to invade at the time (the Romans) As for the heads on spikes story we don't know if that's actually true, but if it was they would not have been in gardens or houses as trophies in particular, but as warnings to what happens if you mess with Celts. Romans set out crosses with crucified people hanging outside major roads and English hung criminals on chains on city walls.

Celts were not as barbaric as people make them out to be. I am decended from Celtic blood, and am positive that they were just trying to survive at the time, and behaving like all other races of peoples at the time.

hope this helps.

Did the iron age Celts use seasoning?

As the Celts spanned the majority of Western Europe before the Romans took their land and intergrated them into their empire (with varying degrees of success), they would have been aware of certain items that could be used as seasoning. Certainly they would have used salt as a preservative for meats rather than as a seasoning. When the meat was cooked after being preserved with salt, it would have tasted very salty indeed so seasonings would have been used to try and mask the taste of the salt.
