The Celts


The Celts of today's Austria were an advanced civilization, and yet they are often still found in school textbooks as "barbarians", granted just a marginal note next to the "important" cultures of the Romans and Greeks.

Food, religion, warfare ... I have looked into many themes when researching for my Celtic series. My blog posts give you short insights, but beware! I am not a historian, not an archeologist or timetraveller (wish I were, at least for a weekend!). Some of my conclusions might be different to university opinion, but that is to be expected by a creative novel author ...
