A great video, quality graphics too. Very good summary, congratulations. If I was to nit-pick, Northern Italy is overlooked a bit. Celts were there before the Gaulish invasion (c. 400 b.C.), check the Golasecca culture, and Lepontii across the Alps. It is not a trivial thing, as their role in culture-exchange between the Mediterranean and Continental Europe was quite prominent and is being looked at with renewed interest. Also, Etruscans did not engage in capillary settlement of Northern Italy, which was largely unpopulated, but established a few mercantile-military footholds aimed at controlling the trading routes. Otherwise, excellent job, 10/10, I'm happy to be a subscriber.

Interesting. In "Portugal" there is an Gaelic word. "-gal" > "cale". I dont know what it means though and I'm not sure if I wrote it right Edit: I corrected the word. It's "cale", not "cále". This word is presumed to be a Proto-Celtic word and means either "Fort" or "Harbour". When the Romans came in, they used the name and placed "portus" before it, hence "portus cale", which became later "Portugal".

🇮🇹The Celts in Italy From the beginning of the 4th century BC, hordes of Celts crossed the Alps several times, settling in areas of the Italian territory, carrying out looting and destroying many of the Etruscan cities further north. In Northern Italy many ancient local populations of the Ligurian stock (for example the Taurini) merged with the Celts. They were finally subdued by the Romans during the Punic Wars. According to Tito Livio at the beginning of the 4th century BC a horde of Celts led by the chief Belloveso crossed the Alps and occupied the territory of Milan which took the name of Insubria from the name of the starting territory in Gaul. The horde was made up of Celts from the tribes of Arverni, Aulerci, Ambarri, Biturgi, Carnuti, Edui and Senoni. Aside from the Senones who advanced south, the rest of the horde took the name of Insubrius Gauls. The Gesati were Celtic mercenaries from the Rhone region who fought alongside the Insubres. They were defeated by the Romans at Talamone in 225 BC and in 222 BC their king Viridomaro was killed in a duel by the consul Marco Claudio Marcello who consecrated the opima spolia to Jupiter Feretrio. The Anari Gauls were settled in the Oltrepò Pavese area and perhaps in Piacentino, they allied themselves with the Romans in 223 BC The Carni settled in Carnia. The Graioceli in the Moncenisio area, and in the Lanzo Valleys. From their name derives the name of the Graian Alps. The Salassi lived in Aosta Valley and in the Canavese area. The Taurini in Turin. The Insubri between Milan and Cremona. The Orobi between Como and Bergamo. The Cenomani Gauls around Brescia. The Boi in Emilia. The Lingoni around Ferrara. The Senones had settled in Monferrato from where they left on looting expeditions to Ravenna, Siena, Talamone, Chiusi, Arezzo. Commanded by their leader Brenno they went as far as Rome.

Thank you for this well documented and synthetic video ! But I would like to bring a further information in your depiction of Celtic hierarchy. The one you describe is indeed the one that match the Hallsatt and early la Tene period, accordingly to what the scientific found. But you forget to mention the dynamic that affect the later La Tene period, especially in Gallic area, where city State system likes are far more common. Parisis, Eduani, and several other tribes are described by Caesar as having their own kind of "Senate", where members of the aristocracy dispute their internal struggle for power. By the first century, many tribes (mostly based around a fortified urban center serving as a meeting point, called oppidum by the roman) were even forming some kind of leagues. At this time, the power of the nobility is thought to have been more challenged by the wealthiest of the lower class. I Can only recommend the works on the subject of deceased french historian Christian Goudineau. Anyway, I will watch the next videos with great interest !

I'm starting to think George RR Martin may haven taken inspiration from the druids when he created the Order of the Maesters for his A Song of Ice and Fire series. At least in pre-Targaryen conquest, they were a pan continental organization of scholars and doctors. Though they weren't religious in nature, they had duties that ranged from medicine, providing surgery, record keeping, teaching children and advising lords. Also just like the druids, it took many years of study and memorization before one could officially become a Maester.

Hmm, according to the Celts themselves, as noted in the Book of the Four Masters, Celts were settlers from far from 'Albion', tracing their migration back first to southern Spain, and before that Greece and Italy, but even before that, from Northern India. Interestingly, classic 'Celtic' artistic motifs can also be found in pottery from that area. More, consider the style of an Indian sari, and then how the Scottish Celts throw a tartan over their shoulders.

Many/most contemporary celticists in academia now think that Cernunnos was a god of death, not a god of "nature". The "god of nature" thing is due to modern people wanting to assimilate Cernunnos into the greco-roman Pan. But Cernunnos is an *_antlered_* god, not a "horned god" (the difference is important). He also was depicted as just a regular human in a medidative pose wearing either a tunic and pants (no hooves) or textile armor/gambeson, and holding works of advanced "artificial" metallurgy such as torcs. He just happened to have antlers on his head, because it symbolized change and death/rebirth. In ancient celtic religion, Cernunnos was a god of death, seasons and cycles. - Most authentic depictions of Cernunnos show him grasping a horned serpent (symbolizing control over rebirth and life, the serpent being a symbol of rejuvenation) and holding a torc in his right hand (symbolizing that he holds the power of _freedom;_ the torc, a broken circle, is worn by free people). - His antlers mark him as a being of cyclical change. Antlers are seasonal, they "die" and regrow in a yearly cycle. - In most authentic depictions like the Gundestrup cauldron, he is also wearing what seems like gambeson/textile armor, a sign of being equipped and able for battle/struggle. - While Cernunnos is depicted on very few occasions as surrounded by living beings and animals, however they seem to be paying no attention to him, and vice-versa; they're just kinda there. Cernunnos is, at most, *among* the living, but he is not *of* the living. Literally all of the authentic symbolism around Cernunnos is about changes related to death, not some modern idea of "wilderness". So, Cernunnos is not a "god of nature", there's no such thing in ancient celtic polytheism/druidism since the natural world is everything that exists and everything that exists is natural (mines, forges, human stuff, etc., that's all natural too in that perspective). Cernunnos is specifically the god of *_what happens to_* nature, to all things: periodical destruction, death and (re)birth etc. In ancient celtic polytheism/druidism, there is appparently no distinction between "natural" and "artificial", so there would not be deities associated with those concepts specifically; but there is however a distinction between life and death. There's a goddess of birth, but early celticists did not think that ancient celts even had a "god of "death", because they projected their modern greco-roman-derived sensibilities upon a non-greco-roman culture and mistook the god of change for a god of "nature". Cernunnos is this "missing" god of death in the celtic pantheon; he was there all along we just didn't bother to look at it correctly. After the roman conquests and during the romanization of Gaul, "nature deities" like the roman Sylvanus were integrated into gaulish polytheism and a lot of specifically druidic stuff was outlawed because druidic meetings commonly became centers of political rebellion. Celts eventually integrated the roman notion of "natural and artificial are mutually-exclusive", however.

The Senones were one of the various Gallic tribes that had recently invaded northern Italy. They settled on the Adriatic Coast around what is now Rimini. According to Livy, they were called to the Etruscan town of Clusium (now Chiusi, Tuscany) by Aruns, an influential young man of the city who wanted to take revenge against Lucumo, who had "debauched his wife." When the Senones appeared, the Clusians felt threatened and asked Rome for help. They first invaded the North of Italy for the same reason most tribes did it back then, to find a new place to live. Either chased from their lands by another tribe or I believe in this case they just saw better land that appeared badly defended. Check the background part for the Battle of the Allia on Wiki that was the first real battle between the 2 which lead to the first sacking of the city.

I can’t help but wonder if that’s a p.r. tactic to render them more inhuman and thereby easier to fight or if there’s some subconscious culture stigma of giants as pre-civilized antagonists similar to the mythologies of greek, roman, norse cultures (to name a few)

A tiny mini correction on the pronunciation in Greek for the word KELTOI. Great video btw KELTOI is not pronounced in Greek kel-toy but kel-tea ( ΟΙ ) in Greek is pronounced like (e, like in the word “me’). ‘OΙ’ or in small greek letters “οι’’ is also the male plural form as well Single form (Ο ΚΕΛΤΟΣ pronounced with the tone in E. O KELTOS The Celt (single form for male because it starts with ‘O’) Plural form (OI KEΛΤΟΙ or in small greek letters “ οι κέλτοι ‘’ pronounced ‘ Ee keltee’ The Celts (plural form for male cause it starts with ‘Οι’. Btw In Greek language the tone is written only in small letters. You will never see a Greek capital letter with a tone like À for example, though it is implied

Etymology of Celts: Κέλτης < αρχαία ελληνική Κελτοί / Κέλται < ινδοευρωπαϊκή ρίζα *gal- (δυνατός, ανθεκτικός) Celts < Κέλτες in Greek, means strong and enduring, not tall. Derivative of the Indo-European root *gal.

In the end, the cultures live on not because how fascinating or high functional they are, but because of how much they keep records of things. Romans were very good at documenting, that's why even after the fall of Rome, we know more about every little nuances of Roman history than the history of Ostrogoths. Lesson is, gotta write my autobiography someday so that people don't remember me through the descriptions of my haters.

Much like oral history, written history does not *_reliably_* survive long unless is it continuously being *_actively_* preserved anyway. Keeping written records does not necessarily prevent the loss of History and culture through conquests and colonizations. Just ask literally the entire world outside of the greco-roman world and early-modern european empires. We _"know more about every little nuances of Roman history than the history of Ostrogoths"_ because Roman society and culture literally dominated most of the known society and History of all of of the nations that eventually conquered the entire world. So, those records were *_actively_* preserved and deemed important while others were not. Even if the Ostrogoths had meticulously written down everything we'd want to know about them, the majority of it would probably not have survived to this day. And the Ostrogoths were still conquerers themselves, so imagine how less likely it it for colonized society and culture to survive long in comparison. Also, getting back to the video itself: the continental Celts did have writing, they used it at least for trade, diplomacy, administrative purposes, etc. Writing on rolled bark sheets is how Uercingetorix coordinated the Arverni Confederation's counterattack on the Siege of Alesia from inside the walls. We have archeological finds of gaulish dialects written using a phoenician-derived system highly similar to the Greek alphabet. Gaulish money had words written on it. Losing History and culture isn't a problem of "not having the written word", the problem is that as far as we know, not much writing *survived*. This stuff was just not actively preserved all the way throughout History like greco-roman culture has been.

Bonus fact: in Ireland, the Celtic god Lugh was the chief deity, Lugh Lamfada, god of all arts and crafts and king of the gods. When Ireland was Christianized, the old hills, sídhe, were believed to be refuges were the old gods fled and hid from the Christians, much like Celtic culture became oppressed and hid away. Over time, these hills would become known as the fairy hills, and the old gods were downgraded to fairies. But not Lugh. His name got bastardized to Lugh Cromfain, or 'Old Stooping Lugh', which, when legend faded to myth, became Leprechaun.

@@adrienfleury8118 That's interesting, just realised that the root 'dunum' has common linguistic origins with the Celtic Britons' language because here in England it's also used in place names like Camulodunum, the original name for Colchester, meaning 'fortress of Camulos' (a Celtic god of war and the theorized inspiration for the naming of the legendary castle of Camelot). After a bit of research it seems dunum is derived from 'dunon' - 'dunum' being the Latinized version.

I taught 7th grade history, which was mostly European based, with China, Japan later in the school year, and always the year started with Egyptians and Babylonians. Anyway, along with Greeks and Romans I included a unit on Celts for a few days. It was easy enough to copy out pages from the few historic books on them, and then there was a video I copied off the old History Channel that had a segment on Celts and their wars with Rome, and it showed a map of Europe under Celtic "rule" that diminished as the Romans started to expand in the 200s BCE. So, Celtic Europe's vastness was there to see: about three quarters of Iberia, Gaul, Britain/Ireland, Northern Italy and the Balkans, and that bit of Southern Turkey and that tiny bit of Poland as their easternmost territory, with no one tribe or emperor ruling all that vast territory.

People will believe what they wish. They always have. Religious beliefs, when you get right down to it, are often not that silly in the grand scheme of things. If people want to connect there personal beliefs and desire for spiritual fulfillment to a tradition they barely understand which even expert historians only grasp in fragments, then either there are worse things they could do or they would probably be doing those worse things anyways. If one or more gods exist, they must be used to insults or no humans would be left, a thing we can all probably learn from.
