      We bloody Yanks can conquer Limeyland for Ireland with the objective of requiring all Limey pubs to serve their beer cold instead of warm and to require most Limey women to shave their legs. We can start by finishing the job John Paul Jones started in 1778 at the Limey Port of Whitehaven. Any Aussies, Kiwis, and Canucks won't be able to stop us because we will clog their cannons with sticky stinky Scottish haggis. -Dave the Bloody Yank 😜

    While I am just about to enjoy this surely interesting episode, as an Irish person, I must coreect the opening words that suggest when St Patrick arrived we were a people several centuries old...it is well accepted that the pre celts were here for many thousands of years...the Newgrange, Knowth and Dowth burial chambers are dated 5,200 years ago, predating Stonehenge, but built by the same peoples!.
    However we shall hack on and welcome this surely otherwise well researched and well presented work.

      You could piece it together from online resources like Wikipedia but I would recommend hitting up your nearest bookstore to see if they have any scholarly books about the Celts in their history section.
      These books are easy to obtain in European bookstores but if you're based in North America, perhaps do a background check on authors before spending money. Unfortunately, there are a lot of Irish-Americans that piece together the history inaccurately in order to put forward some modern day agenda based on the culture war between Left and Right.@@leighhuggins5030

    If I'm remembering correctly, in the book How the Irish Saved Civilization, the author states that Patrick was a Coptic Christian, influenced by the commerce between Ireland and Egypt. It was not until the Roman Catholic bishops of England got ahold of him and essentially held him captive, that he finally swore allegiance to the Pope or at least to Roman Catholicism.

      Nobody was exclusive or litterarly first and entirely and purely the forfatherly unique, neither ethnically, nor culturaly or racially - completaly clean, because the tribes, ethnoses and peoples - have mixed with each other, intermerried, constantly circulated and blanded with each other throughout the human and Pan-European history....our peoples are the result of that, so are the various tribes, Celtic or pre-Celtic (proto - European, or - the middle Easte farmers who migrated to Europe far before our fellow Celts who after 5-4 BC, became the N• 1 factor on the Isles. The Celts with their various tribes......then - the Romans, then at the and of Antiquity and the begining of the early Middle Ages - the Angles, Saxons & Yutes....then...the Vikings, after them, - the Normans.....ect....they all have contributed to what we call today the British nation ...or the ethnicities, or people of the British Isles... - The British...which include the Scotsmen, the Irish, then thd Welsh, Cornish and after all - thd English , who thems4lves are the blend of AngliSaxons, Normans, Vikings, and...mainly - the Brittons, as wwll as the Picts who lwft thd Nor5h, when the Iriah Gaelic , Scuti or Scoti - moved to Scoyland.. ect.

    Reliance upon inference of some tenuous connection with the Continental Halstatt (and La Tene) cultures is a cumbersome, and cumbrous, thesis. It is now mostly superseded by current understandings of the prehistoric Atlantic Cultures and their vigorous trading networks connecting Tartessia with Jutland and beyond. These understandings are supported by genomic evidence linking today's Insular and Continental Western Europeans to the ancient Iberians. These people didn't just pre-date the "Celts", they pre-dated the Indo-Europeans.

    During the Assyrian invasion to kingdom of Israel in ( 721BC ) and fleeing being captives , they, the Israelis, embarked on a voyage in the seas that already been known by the Phoenicians, and finally settled in Irland.
    Could this be true?
    Also it is the Phoenicians who named the land of corn wall ( Britannica), which means in Arabic or Aramaic or Hebrew, the land of tin. As vowels in these languages in some cases are not written but had to be supplied through speech, so Br, means land, (i) or (e) means of. tanaca means tin.

      Celtic is a linguistic term that describes a group of related languages, like romantic or Germanic. It does not describe a culture. People who speak these languages may have very different cultures. Romanian and French both Romantic languages, but the native speakers are not of the same culture. Tartesian, Gaulish, Irish and Cornish are or were all Celtic languages, but the speakers were/are very different culturally. Lol of course this all depends on your definition of “culture!”

      During the Assyrian invasion to kingdom of Israel in ( 721BC ) and fleeing being captives , they embarked on a voyage in the seas that already been known by the Phoenicians, and finally settled in Irland. Could this be true?
