Beautiful fold-out map locating the various tribes of the ancient Celts, founders of Europe.

• The map opens to 22½" x 30" and identifies areas of Celtic civilization from the Iberian peninsula to Asia Minor and north to Scandinavia and the British Isles, with many ancient place names.



• Among the tribes labeled are the Atrebates, Caletes, Veneti, Lemovices, Ligures, Senones, Taurisci, Cotini, Dardani, Tectosages, Caledones, Ordovices, Parisi, Vindelici, Boii, Helvetii, and many more.



• In the second century B.C., Gaul alone boasted more than 60 tribes and was the center of late Celtic culture in Europe.



• Illustrations and descriptive text provide a fascinating history of the Celtic peoples and the persistence of Celtic culture in traditions such as Halloween, lively folklore, and ancient languages still spoken today by two million people in Wales, Scotland, Ireland, and Brittany.



• On the reverse side there is a full-color political map of Europe, including Spain, Portugal, Italy, Greece, Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary, Yugoslavia, Austria, Switzerland, France, Germany, Czechoslovakia, Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, Denmark, Poland, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, England, Norway, Sweden, Finland, and parts of Russia, Turkey, and the northern Africa nations of Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, and Egypt.
