Through fifty-four color maps, covering almost 3,000 years and
spanning the whole of Europe, this atlas of the Celts charts their
dramatic history from Bronze Age origins to present-day diaspora.
Each map is accompanied by an authoritative text and supporting
illustrations. Continental Celts maps the Hallstatt and La Tene
cultures in Central Europe; the migrations into Italy, Iberia,
Greece, and Anatolia; the fate of Celtic culture under Roman rule;
and the fortunes of the Bretons from the Dark Ages to their
absorption by France. Beginning with Iron Age Britain and Ireland,
Atlantic Celts covers the failure of the Romans to complete the
conquest of the islands, the resurgence of Celtic civilization in
the Dark Ages, the history of Gaelic Ireland, and the making of
Scotland. Modern Celts examines the revival of Celtic identity,
from the Celtomania of the eighteenth century through the growth of
nationalism and the current state of Celtic culture.
