Overview

"""An Atlas for Celtic Studies"" is a unique and comprehensive reference book that presents a huge amount of information on what is known about the Celts in Europe in the form of detailed maps. It combines thousands of Celtic place- and group names, as well as Celtic inscriptions and other mappable linguistic evidence. Moving away from a narrative 'story of the Celts', the aim of this ground-breaking publication is to empower the reader with a wide range of evidence, lucidly presented, to show the geographic relationship of Celtic-language and non-linguistic cultural evidence, allowing individual interpretation. The Atlas has 64 large format pages of colour maps alongside pages of explanatory text, theoretical discussion, map details, bibliography, and index. This will be an essential work for anyone studying the Celts."

Reviews

One of the most useful books on Celtic Studies ever published; every Celticist in the world should have a copy...the benefits of using it will be immense. Linguists, historians and archaeologists should press ahead to obtain copies with all possible speed.'--Andrew Breeze Nomina, 2008 Let us salute the work accomplished and the underlying concern to go back to the sources.'--Olivier Buchsenschutz Antiquity, Vol. 82, 2008 The reach of the atlas is extremely inclusive and wide-ranging... should serve to demystify many crude misunderstandings.'--Donall O Fionnain Tipperary Historical Journal, 2008
