Iron Age burial site points to long-lost glories of Gaul

“During this time, the Celts expanded from their core territory in central Europe to as far afield as northern Scotland and the Atlantic coast of Spain.  They clashed with the emerging Roman empire, whose writers recorded the invaders as pale-skinned savages, dressed in breeches with bleached hair, who cut off their enemies’ heads, preserving those of high rank in cedar oil.  The barbarian image, though, has been dispelled by historical research in recent decades.  It has laid bare a complex civilisation that had a mastery of metal and a trading system which spanned Europe and generated great wealth.”
