The era of the Celts lasted more than 1,000 years in the history of
Central and Western Europe. This lavishly illustrated volume
comprehensively documents Celtic culture from its emergence in the
Hallstatt period to the era of Christianization, between Anatolia
and Ireland, Slovakia and Portugal. A brief, yet detailed
introduction explains and comments on the material, pointing out
connections and interpreting the illustrations, drawings, and maps.
An index of illustrations refers the reader to further literature
on the subject, as well as providing additional information.
This fascinating period of ancient European culture is presented
in a total of almost 800 illustrations documenting major items from
over 60 museums and collections. More than 160 scholars and artists
from Ireland to Turkey have contributed invaluable pictorial
material. The author has traveled the entire settlement area of the
Celts, in particular the British Isles, and supplements the
illustrations of objects with his own atmospheric landscape
photographs, providing fascinating ethnographic details of everyday
life, traditional customs, and popular piety.
