    Interesting and informative talk!
    Prof Hutton managed to pop some of the assumptions and 'facts' I have about the Celts, and various myths and legends.
    I knew the Gundestrup cauldron wasn't entirely Celtic, but assumed it was a mix of Dacian, Germanic, Indian, and Celtic influences. I was surprised to hear that it originally came from the Black Sea region so it was probably a Scythian item at first. Thanks for posting the video.

    The dagda is a Celtic god and he has a cauldron. So is this cauldron a later adaptation of the dagda since the cauldron is not Celtic and he is?

    I thought the tree of life came from those west of Eire when their island sank an entered into Ireland, Celt is a 2500yo term for people in Marsaille the Keltoi living around the head of the Danube and also in the far west of Europe, have you read Alan Wilsons writings on the Two King Arthurs? :)

    • @whatabouttheearth
      @whatabouttheearth 10 місяців тому +1

      Hekataeus of Miletus first used the term Keltoi around 500bc, and then Julian Ceaser and many others used the term. So "celt" is in absolutely no way a modern term, it's at least 2,500 years old.

    • @eponaalbion
      @eponaalbion 10 місяців тому +2

      right, but they were not in Eire, this was my main point, corrected, thanks :)
      Celts
      The first recorded use of the name of Celts - as Κελτοί (Keltoi) - to refer to an ethnic group was by Hecataeus of Miletus, the Greek geographer, in 517 BC, when writing about a people living near Massilia (modern Marseille). In the 5th century BC Herodotus referred to Keltoi living around the head of the Danube and also in the far west of Europe.

      No problem.
      What do you mean "those west of Eire when their island sank and entered into Ireland"?
      A myth?
      Because I'm fairly sure there is not anything in the geological record of any islands sinking (anywhere), or any landmasses or islands crashing into another land mass and forming together in the geological timeline since Homo sapiens have become Homo sapiens. I mean like how India crashed into Asia to make the Himalayas, LONG LONG ago, and now they're connected.
