synopsis
The culture of the mysterious Celts is the subject of this installment in the A&E series Ancient Mysteries. These "naked warriors" were experts in metalworking and agriculture, to say nothing of their expertise in battle. The Celts fought like vicious beasts, savagely slicing off the heads of their conquered enemies as trophies and terrifying even the powerful empires of Greece and Rome on the battlefield. But what of the Celts' lives outside the realm of war? Archaeologists search for answers to this question, revealing insight into to the daily lives of the Celts, as well as exploring the nature of the Druids and the connections between the Celts' warlike nature and their spirituality.
