Celtic History

The Celts were known for their distinctive appearance, characterized by elaborate body art, including intricate tattoos and body paint, which often featured geometric designs and symbols. They typically wore woolen clothing, with men donning tunics and cloaks, while women wore long dresses. Additionally, they often adorned themselves with jewelry made of bronze, gold, or silver, showcasing their craftsmanship. Their hairstyles, which could include braids or shaved sections, further contributed to their striking and memorable look.

They didn't wash very much. For centuries to wash clothing or the body too hauling water, heating it, then scrubbing the clothing and hanging it up. People were pretty stinky in ancient history and didn't have a clean life.

The Celts were seen by the Romans as barbaric and in battle they didn't follow the Roman rules of battle. The Romans generally were worried about the barbarian tribes crossing into Italy. They had tried fighting them on their own turf and knew that they more more than willing to die rather than be slaves or to pay the Romans for allowing them to live.

They were called round houses

The Celts is a broad term for many different tribes. The people of Gaul were a mix of Celtic (Gallic), Celto-Germanic (the Belgians) and Germanic. There were even Celts living in Northern Italy who were part of Rome.

Positive:

1. For the southern Gauls who traded with and were allied to Rome (Aedui), Caesar was essentially an ally who helped save them from rival tribes (Helvetii) who threatened to steal their lands and take over. He also defeated the invading Germans in his second campaign. This was all at the expense of being subject to Caesar, however.

2. He put an end to human sacrifice. This was still a common practice of the Celts of Caesar's day. People tend to forget how dark some of the Celtic religious beliefs were.

3. Most of the Gauls were granted either citizenship or a preliminary privilege called the Latin Rights. Meaning they had the rights of Roman citizens.

Negative

1. All of these pros came with the expense of incredible loss of life. The Celts are famous for being disorganized. After Caesar defeated the Germans, the Belgians united hoping to be rid of Rome as well. From that point on Caesar decided to conquer all of Gaul. While a million deaths is an exaggeration, hundreds of thousands who fought against him were killed or sold into slavery as Caesar made his way through Gaul.

2. "The loss of Celtic culture" I put this in quotes because this is somewhat overstated and indirect. While it is true Gaul became much more latinized with Caesar, the real death-blow to Celtic culture in Gaul (and Britain) came with advent of Christianity and then the later barbarian invasions of the Franks and others. But the process could be said to have started with Caesar.

It is not a pro or a con, but had Caesar been defeated, modern Europe would be a vastly different place.

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 typically had a simple breakfast that might include porridge made from oats or barley, sometimes sweetened with honey or accompanied by berries. They also consumed bread, often baked on hot stones or in the ashes of the fire. Dairy products, such as milk or cheese, were common, reflecting their pastoral lifestyle. Overall, their breakfast was hearty and focused on sustaining energy for daily activities.

Ah, the Celts were a creative and resourceful bunch when it came to preparing for battle. They would practice their skills with weapons like swords, spears, and shields, honing their techniques through regular drills and sparring sessions. But they also understood the importance of mental strength and courage, often drawing on their deep connection to nature and their sense of community to inspire bravery in the face of conflict.

If you accept that the gods desire sacrifice, it is then logical to offer the most valuable type of sacrifice, which would be people, in order to obtain the favor of the gods.
