Ancient genomes reveal women-centered community in Celtic Britain A genetic study has, for the first time, unraveled a matrilocal social system in Iron Age Britain, where land and connectedness with the community were passed down through a female lineage. This is a first for European prehistory and underlines the importance of women in social and political spheres. Researchers from Trinity College Dublin and Bournemouth University collaborated to analyze DNA from 57 individuals buried at a site near Winterbourne Kingston, Dorset, known as ‘Duropolis.” This burial ground, in use both before and after the Roman Conquest of CE 43, provided a rare view of the lives of the Durotriges, a Celtic tribe...

A View From My Seat

D-Rey snapped his great view (from the last row in the Garden) as the Celtic’s 2024 World Champions banner, commemorating their #NBA leading 18th Championship, rose into the rafters during Boston’s 24/25 Opening Night ceremony.

This game ends with the #Celtics beating the Knicks 132-109.

Ancient brooches, wine jugs, and a bone pen found in Celtic settlement in Germany Archaeological excavations near Altenburg, Germany, have revealed significant findings at the late Celtic oppidum Altenburg-Rheinau. This settlement, which thrived during the first century BCE, was a major center for trade and specialized crafts north of the Alps. Artifacts unearthed from the Altenburg-Rheinau site underscore its importance as a hub of trade and cultural exchange. Local coarse and fine pottery fragments were found alongside imported wine amphorae from Italy. Coins from the first century BCE provide further evidence of a monetary economy facilitating trade. The presence of ornately decorated brooches, belt components, and other costume accessories made of bronze and iron offers a glimpse into the daily lives and craftsmanship of the Celts. One of the most intriguing discoveries came during the 2023 excavations: a bone stylus used for writing on wax tablets.
