Ancient Celtic tribes

Ancient Celtic tribes were diverse groups of people who shared cultural traits like language, art, and social structures, primarily across Europe from around 800 BCE to 400 CE. They inhabited regions such as Ireland, Britain, France (Gaul), and Central Europe. Known for their skilled metalwork, distinctive religious practices, and warrior societies, the Celts had a rich oral tradition and complex societal hierarchies. They were often organized into tribal communities led by chieftains. Over centuries, their influence declined due to Roman conquest, migration, and cultural assimilation, but their legacy persists in modern languages, art, and mythology.
