Chapters 5-6 look back to search for the earliest ancestors of the Celts through finding the origins of the earliest Indo-European peoples. In Chapter 6 Herm takes the unusual stance of looking for Celtic ancestors through focusing on Jurgen Spanuth's Nordic theory of Atlantis and the Great European Migration of the 13th century B.C.E.Herm then looks at the origins of recognizable Celtic Culture through the Hallstatt & La Tene Cultures and their developments and looks at their religion and mythology including the role of the Druids in Chapters 7-9.He then goes on to look at the later clashes between Rome and the Celts in Chapters 10-13, Caesar and the Gallic Wars, the Defeat of Vercingetorix, the Campaigns in Britain and ' The Barbarian Conspiracy', the piratical raids and later invasions that would see Britain removed from the Empire in A.D.410.Chapters 14-16 focus on Ireland and the Irish La Tene cultural period from 300B.C.E. to A.D.450, the rise of the Celtic Church in Ireland & Scotland, the Christinization of Continental Europe by Irish & Scottish Missionaries and the final fall of the Celtic Church to Roman Catholicism in 663 at the Council of Whitby and the rise of the Arthurian Cycles with their clearly Celtic British origins into the early14th century.There is some outdated material but overall an outstanding introduction to a highly interesting subject. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Fascinating Read *by W***3 on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 12, 2018* Book Club choice that keeps us all interested and fascinated. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Five Stars *by S***H on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 29, 2015* Great book --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/71106086-the-celts-the-people-who-came-out-of-the-darkness](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/71106086-the-celts-the-people-who-came-out-of-the-darkness) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-09-19*
