Gaelic is soon to be forever forgotten. The amount of immigrants the government is letting in who couldn't care about Irish culture, and they are being planted in every part of Ireland. In a hundred years you'll be doing you tube videos about the Irish Arabic dialect.

Please check your facts ! The man shown on the tile cover of your video is NOT Irish. His name is Ambiorix (fl. 54-53 BC) , he was the leader of the Eburones, a Belgic tribe of north-eastern Gallia Belgica, where modern Belgium is located. Caesar wrote about Ambiorix in his commentary about his battles against the Gauls, De Bello Gallico. In this text he famously wrote: "Of these [three regions], the Belgae are the bravest." ("... Horum omnium fortissimi sunt Belgae ...").

Great video! Just a small correction to the extension of the iberian celts. They also occupied what is nowadays known as Basque country, as is shown in the ancient toponomy (names of rivers and mountains) and some traditions like the sacred oak. The basques inhabited originally the adjacent land to the east, and spread out westwards to their actual location right after the fall of the Roman empire.

Should be titled "who were the Irish?" because the indigenous culture is dead aside from a few spots on the west coast. The further east you go the more the british influence, until you get to Dublin where all things Gaelic are actually scorned and resisted. Proper little brits altogether in the capital and not called "jackeens" for nothng. The british influence has actually been overtaken by the American one over the last 30 years because of the internet. Like any culture, the language is the main protector and barrier against foreign influence but the Irish language is largely gone in Ireland now and the place is just swamped by American and British culture from either side. Contemporary Irish culture is a pathetic mix of imported English popular values and American commercialism. With a dollop of European red tape thrown in for good measure. Whoever coined the phrase "gan teanga gan tír" had it spot on and was deeply prophetic. Irish people just suck up non-stop british and American media and cultural content now. The language goes and then everything else goes in time. The saddest part is that the most trenchant anglophiles dominate the media and ruling class in Ireland and are more than happy to let the native culture wither away and be replaced by the slurry I mentioned above.

If Cambridge University claims that English is not a race, then it is not a legitimate university

WHY just why are you dennying historical evidence? there were slavs inhabiting western banks of the river Rhein!!! they were exterminated by the early Oton dynasty during the forced christianisation... even before, the Franks led by the Charles the Great were used to organise raids into Slavic territory literarly poaching slavs for slaves (forced labour) ... from that derives the world Slave = captured enslaved member of one of the Slavic nations !!! BTW one can not possibly consieve the nonsensical pathos towards present Ne.o.n.a.z.i Junta in Ukraine... their ideology is absolutely alien to any Slav!!! And as it is happening right now is going to fall!!!

Beautiful video and I love your conclusion at the end. Also could you link some of your sources in the description so that I might delve into this topic a little deeper and see the evidence for myself?

Interesting video. For accuracy's sake however (since the subject deals with cultural and ethnic identities), Strabo was a Greek historian, and not Roman!

We all descended from Adam and Eve. That should answer few questions.

Well, I used to think Ryan Seacrest was a bit of a fairie, but I guess it's more like Don Lemon and Neil Patrick Harris....

Fascinating how fast it changed. It’s clear de similitude from arcaic and latin sound 👍

You mean We Irish descend from Asterix. For goodness sake Where's the Power potion of the Druids. Love to Irish worldwide.❤❤❤

The concept of a cultural identity is blurred by history due to genetic mixing, language, political or military conquest and natural cultural change. By the same process that many modern Spaniards and Portuguese may consider themselves "Celt", the English (also subject to the regular invasions and migrations of other European groups and the loss of Celtic languages) are also predominantly Celt. Though born in Cornwall and with a hint of Irish and Scottish ancestry, my mother (from Kent) always described us as Celt. The fact that the Celtic _culture_ came from Austria/Switzerland in its most ancient form is underpinned by the spread to Galacia (central Turkey), Ireland and the extremities of Europe's Atlantic seaboard. We don't use the bell beaker pottery or swirly patterns on bronze and gold jewellery, so to consider ourselves Celt seems a bit of a stretch given the obvious DNA mixing of 2,000+ years. No question that the Celts are a vital component in European history, however.

I think I see now why languages like old Welsh and old Portuguese are so similar in certain aspects. They wore the same kind of Celts.

They crossed over from the land of Palestine, The name Iber in Hebraic means to cross over

English and very proud of that fact.

Lmao the guy in the Thumbnail looks more like oghuz turkic than celtic😂😂😂

is that just you shirtless in a field posing dramatically? XD BECAUSE IM HERE FOR IT WHOEVER IT IS LOL

Haplogroup U2 was identified in Russia in a 30,000 year old Cro-Magnon. Scholars believe that this group, after migrating north, became the dominant lineage among the foragers who eventually settled in Central Asia and South Asia and became the Indo-Iranian groups. The original Scythians and Sarmatians were an Iranian people in origin, Over time the Scythians in the East would have been replaced by East Asians and the Scythians in Central Asia would have become mixed. History has preserved the names of some of them: Ishpakaia, Bartatua, Madyes, Idanthyrsus, , Skyles, Tigratavā , Octamasadas, Xāravalāna, Artavatauxma, Zarinaea, Sodasa, Sawarmag, Saurmag, and Zari- "golden". This was the name of a legendary Saka (Scythian) warrior queen. They are descended from what is called andronovo horizon they are Indo-Iranian horse nomads Iranians speaker, they have Iranian names. The Maykop and Yamnaya culture arose from a meeting and mixing of Zagrosian/Iranian farmers and Caucasian hunter-gatherers. they migrated north and absorbed extra northern Eurasian hunter-gatherer DNA, creating the Slaves, Goths, Celts, and so on. The Proto-Indo-Europeans originated with the Yamna culture people (3300-2500 BC). In Late Antiquity and the Middle Ages, the name "Scythian" was used in Greco-Roman and Byzantine literature for various groups of nomadic "barbarians" living on the Pontic-Caspian steppe who were not related to the actual Scythians such as the Huns, Goths, Ostrogoths, Turkic peoples, Pannonian Avars, Khazars and Slavs. For example, Byzantine sources referred to Russian raiders attacking Constantinople in AD 860. in contemporary accounts as "Tauroscythians" because of their geographical origin, and despite their lack of ethnic relationship to the Scythians. The Scythians were part of the wider Scytho-Siberian world, which spanned the Eurasian steppes of Kazakhstan, the Russian steppes of the Siberian, Ural, Volga and southern regions, and eastern Ukraine. In a broader sense, the Scythians have also been used to denote all early Eurasian nomads, although the validity of such terminology is controversial, the Scythians, Saka and Cimmerians were closely related nomadic Iranian peoples, and the ancient Babylonians, the ancient Persians and the ancient Greeks used respectively the names "Cimmerian", "Saka" and "Scythian" for all the steppe nomads, The Mongoloid (Proto-Turkic) peoples in the Altai Mountains embraced Iranic Scythian culture (horsemanship, nomadic way of life, traditions, clothing) and mixed with the Scythians to form their own unique Iranic-Mongoloid.

Very good and professional video with real facts and sources! You correctly showed the place of Slavic homeland. It was the Dnieper and the Pripet rivers basin in present-day Northern Ukraine and Southern Belarus (Polesie). It would be mentioned that it was Zarubintsy archaeological culture (end of 3 century BC - beginning of 2 century AD). Most of modern scholars consider Zarubintsy culture as the culture of Venedi - ancestors of early Slavs. Today the archaeologacal connection between Zarubintsy and later Slavic cultures (Prague-Korchak, Penkivka) is already proved. But there is still a dispute who were the people of Zarubintsy culture. Almost all western and eastern scholars admit that those people were mostly migrants from West - from Central European cultures of Urn fields. Zarubintsy culture of Venedi was much more higher developed and had huge differences in compare with local Baltic cultures in the north, Scythian cultures in the south and even with antique cultures of Greek polices on the northern coast of the Black Sea. Zarubintsy cemeteries and settlements in Ukraine and southern Belarus (almost 500 are found) show that it was not local "culture of plates". S-conic plates on "hill" are unknown among local Baltic and Scythian cultures (which are the "cultures of pots"). Zarubintsy archaeological sites (triangle fibulae of Celto-Illyrian late La Tene type, S-conic plates, black polished pottery of high quality, cremation bural tradition with maintaining of properly cleaned remains of bones in urns) have analogues EXCLUSIVELY in Celto-Germanic "La-Teneized" cultures of late La Tene. And dwellings of Zarubintsy people were close to early Germanic and Celtic types. But the main feature was a great comlex of late La Tene fibulae and other items. Celto-Illyrian bronze fibulae (with a triangle shield) is a "visit card" of Zarubintsy peoole. It was found only in Zarubintsy culture and in West Balkans (area of Celtic tribe of Scordisci, who were satellites of Bastarnae in Macedonian wars on the Balkans). That means that those people came to the Dnieper basin somewhere from Central Europe and were under a huge La Tene (Celtic) cultural impact. Almost all famous archaeologists admit that strict analogues of Zarubintsy arch. sites were found only in Guben group of Jastorf culture (mix of Bastarnae tribe and local Lusatian/Pommeranian tribes with strong Celtic influence) in upper Oder river basin. But who were Bastarnae? Their ethnicity is not clear. Even Tacitus could not identify them. They were called in ancient sources as Celts, Germanics, Celto-Germanics or "people between Celts and Germanics", sometimes with Sarmatian admixture. Some scientists consider them as extincted group of Indo-European people who were something middle between Germanics and Celto-Italics, maybe close to Pommeranian сulture tribes (but with strong La Tene and Jastorf influence). It is well known that there was Bastarnic invasion to modern West Ukraine and Moldova (Poianesti-Lukashevka arch.culture) in 3th cent. BC. And some scholars admit that Zarubintsy and Poianesti-Lukashevka cultures are extremely similar and both cultures belong to the same Celtic (late La Tene influnced) round of cultures. Zarubintsy culture had 3 local variants which are indicated as different groups of people: 1) Polessian variant in the Pripyat basin (very close to Pommeranian culture tribes); 2) Middle Dnieper variant to the south from Kiev (strong Bastarnic admixture from Poianesti-Lukashevka with remains of local Scythian people); 3) Upper Dnieper variant to the north from Kiev and in North Belarus (strong admixture of remains of local Baltic tribes of Milograd culture). In the middle of 1 cent. AD a crucial Sarmatian invasion had place in modern Ukraine. As a result most of Bastarnes of Poianesti-Lukashevka culture (their archaelogical sites are almost 100% pure sites of Guben group of Germanic Jastorf culture) left the Dniester and the Prut basins and migrated to Roman province of Moesia according to different ancient sources, where they soon dissapeared, the rest of them was assimilated by Sarmatians and took half-nomad style of life according to Tacitus. Nevertheless, during 3rd c. BC - 1 c. AD Bastarnae and Pommeranian tribes in the Dnieper-Pripet basin mixed with local Baltic tribes within Zarubintsy culture but preserved their common name "Venedi". Maybe we will never know what language Venedi and Bastarnae spoke. But it is clear that the name "Venedi" is not of Baltic (satem) origin, but of Celto-Italo-Germanic (kentum) origin. That proves the theory of some scholars that Venedi was an ancient name of Lusatian culture people (and their successor - Pommeranian culture) and those people were from Celto-Italic stock of Urn Fields culture of Central Europe. And Zarubintsy people (Venedi) continued urn fields cremation tradition. After invasion of Sarmatians in 1st c. AD, Zarubintsy people from Upper Dniepper migrated to north where they were assimilated by numerous East Baltic forest tribes (mixed Pochep and Tushemlia cultures). Part of Middle Dnieper variant of Zarubintsy people from Ros river basin escaped from Sarmatians and migrated to Southern Bug river in modern Ukraine (archaeologists found their settlements burnt by Sarmatians later, they were all killed by Sarmatian arrows), the second part of those peole also escaped from Sarmatians and moved north-east along the basins of the Desna, the Seim, the Vorskla, the Sula, the Irpen rivers in north and north-east Ukraine, some settlements were found even in upper Don river, the rest founded new settlements in forest zone around Kiev (all above mentioned variants are known as Late Zarubintsy culture of 2 - 3 c. AD, or Kiev arch. culture, which was the "mother" for Kolochin and Penkivka (Antes) cultures). Zarubintsy people from Polessian variant left the Pripett basin in the end of 1st century AD (although there were no Sarmatian invasion, the reason of migration is unclear). They migrated to Volhynia and then to the upper Dniester river basin in Western Ukraine where they assimilated some local peoples of Przeworsk arch.culture (mostly Germanic tribes of Vandals) and Lipitsa arch.culture (Dacian tribes of Costoboci). As a result, a new Zubra arch.culture appeared (also known as Volhyno-Podolian culture which preserved Zarubintsy pottery and cremation traditions). In 2nd century those people were conquered by Germanic tribes Goths and became part of polyethnic Gothic state - Oium (Cherniakhov arch. culture of Goths in Ukraine). After most of Goths left Ukraine under the Hunnic invasion, in 4th century descendants of Zarubintsy people bagan migration from the upper Dniester basin westwords to modern Poland (Mogila group), Moravia and Bohemia (Prague group) and eastwords to the Dnieper (Korchak group). All those groups are similar and are identified as first clearly Slavic culture - Prague (or Prague-Korchak) culture of Sclaveni. At the same time, after the collapse of Gothic Oium, the descendants of Zarubintsy people from the Middle Dnieper variant absorbed a lot of Baltic elements (mixed Balto-Slavic Kolochin culture) and in 5th century migrated southwords along the Dnieper river to modern Central Ukraine and assimilated remains of Sarmatian and Gothic population of the former Oium (Penkivka arch. culture of Antes). As Jordanes and Tacitus wrote, both Antes (Penkivka AC) and Sclaveni (Prague-Korchak AC) are descendants of Venedi - old name of all of them. So Sclaveni and Antes descend from Venedi (Zarubintsy culture) but they had different substrates and material cultures. Antes in Central Ukraine produced and used Gothic-type fibulae, belts, necklaces and other items till 9th century. A lot of Antes migrated to the Danube and the Balkans. In brief, it is a "simple" explanation of not simple process of Slavic ethnogenetics. Venedi managed to survive as a small group under Sarmatian and later Gothic pressure. Later their descendants (Antes and Sclaveni) had a quick grouth in 4-6 th centuries and began movement in all directions (to lands left by Germanic tribes, also to Pannonia and Balkans under the Avaric pressure). So Goths played role not only in fall of Rome, but also they were the reason of Slavic growth and movement. But we must understand, that Venedi in Zarubintsy culture weren't pure Slavs, they were a general substrate who came from Lusatian/Pommeranian cultures (Central Europe). That is why early Slavs were a product of very complicated amagamation of Venedi (and partially Bastarnae) substrate with local Baltic superstrate within Zarubintsy culture. That is why Slavs and Balts have a lot of common lexics, but they also have no common words till iron age (especially for such words as house, bread, fish etc.). And Slavic languages have Celto-Italic system of suffixes and some other "kentum" constructions which are absent in Baltic languages. So it is likely that there were no Balto-Slavic unity. There were just Balts, and the southern part of them (Milograd culture) took part in process of Slavic ethnogenetics due to invasion of Venedi and Bastarnae to the Dnieper-Pripet basin in 3rd century BC...

At 18:40 you show my city of Barcelos and caption it as Braga, technically true as Barcelos is in the district of Braga, but they're two different cities, it would be a bit like showing Albany but captioning it as New York City. Just thought it was a bit funny.

Thank you from a celt lusitan.

I quit watching when I saw "serbo-croatian" at 1:20 . why than isn't there franco-italian or germano-english? You're just ignorants. Stupid.

The Christianity in Europe entered through Macedonia. So how can you speak about being last. The great migrations are myth. We are ingenious to this regions. Sloveni means that we have received the letter of God - litterate. Even more Macedonia existed here since Philip II and there were going to be some memories in the people's folk stories if it were true. This is just one more example of western falsification of history

Shit shit srbian lies and fingers in it as usual

Question: werent the lusitanians celts?=\

Do not belive evrithimg you heare

Why are so many Irish people dark haired, very white skinned and blue eyed?

Bell Beaker males were 'wedding" local women, huh? Is that what they call it now?

The movie Braveheart (brae fart) was fictional -- the French queen only came to Britain six years after Wallace's death. There had been no major exchange between England and Scotland from 1190 to 1290 but Edward the First kicked the moneychangers out of England in 1290 and they fled to Scotland to foment a re-invasion. Suddenly there were all those battles. The moneychangers failed -- the English monarchs achieved their goals and kept them out but the moneychangers control the publishing industry and have reworked history and written themselves out of it and now characterize it as a war between Scots and English invaders,

The Scots, like the Irish, were driven out -- Scots into the barren hills that nobody wanted and the Irish into the bog. The best fighters got the best land and the prevailing world language indicates the winner. Hadrian's wall was built to keep the maverick Roman army busy rather keeping anyone out. By Hadrian's time the Roman army was full of foreigners and was just as likely to attack Rome itself as anywhere else -- hence the distracting project. Ever since, Scots have been trying to get the world's attention by prancing around in skirts and playing obnoxious instruments. Their inferiority complex is still as strong as ever.

i have issue with timeline of "migration" in to the balkans. i would argue that slavic people were present on the balkans way before romans began conquest of the east adriatic coast and inland up to the danube.

Thanks!

As a Portuguese tracing back to the NE area of Minho going back past the middle ages. I can tell you how proud I am to have 75% of Celtiberian DNA and 7% of modern Scottish, Irish, Welsh DNA! The rest is basically Roman at 9%. Our culture to this day honors the Celtic heritage especially in the North but we also honor our Romand and Moorish legacies in many ways, and will continue to do so.

My Irish lineage came thru England. Only found out recently that I am Irish and a few other blood lines.

You would think that people would treat each other nicer after learning about such horrors.

Got a video idea for you. You should look up the history of my home. And some of the history. Think it’d be this long maybe a bit more. We call it a town as we know everyone who lives here. It’s changed a bit but the heart is still the same. Just a little City named York. Kings, Vikings an Emperor. History bleeds through these streets.

Check your facts. Please do not under any circumstances associate us with Finns. It is a 19th century fabrication. Please do not make videos of other people hoping to make money off you fricking tube. It is disturbing. Please do not. TAT C. AND R1A 1A. HAS NOTHING IN COMMON. UKRANIAN POLISH, WE DO. DO YOUR RESEARCH BEFORE YOU MAKE A VIDEO. IT IS RATHER DISTURBING. THANK YOU.

The arrival of the Cló Rómhánach in the early 60s, I understood, was to facilitate printing. It was ugly to the eyes and ears of my 12-year old self who had spent my earlier primary school years getting used to the séimhiú. All those replacement ‘h’s never appealed to me. I got used to them, of course, but when I see the earlier scripts now I find myself transported back and allow myself a smile of recognition of an old friend.

I would like to know what the Iberians think about their Celtic past

Celts or were they not the Basque Gaelics? Celts are Germanics, and they did go to France and Spain. I say the True Inerians are the Basque, the Origin (DNA) of the Irish, pre-Viking Germanics invasions. Archaeologists confuse this History.

This is great! I carry Iberian and Celtic DNA. Glad to hear more about my fellow Celts on the Iberian Peninsula!

БРАВО, перфектно видео ...Perfect, thanks for the video BUT one note we are not North Macedonians but only MACEDONIANS.
