Celtas, guerreros, artistas y druidas
de la cultura de Hallstatt a La Tène pasando por su asentamiento en Hispania, su imaginario religioso y todos los avances de esta singular cultura
Ruiz Zapatero, Gonzalo
(ed.)
Throughout the centuries, the rich and vast Celtic culture has been elaborated in the Western imagination based on certain stereotypes that do not correspond to what we know today. The complexity of their wisdom and all of their plastic expressions are often forgotten, much more value is given to aspects related to magic, rituals or symbology. It seems unbelievable that many of us still believe that it was a town of tall and blonde people, when in reality they were very little homogeneous from an ethnic point of view, or that we link them with potions and spells instead of valuing the quality and beauty of their art or their astronomical and scientific knowledge. In the diversity of their knowledge, they managed to forge a civilization, although not an empire, that dominated most of the Old Continent during the entire first millennium BC. But if this still does not convince you of its importance, think that this town would have something special for the Romans to consider them "chosen barbarians" and to think that their druids were repositories of Pythagorean knowledge. Thanks to great experts, and under the coordination of Gonzalo Ruiz Zapatero, this reading is a help for those who are interested in the truth of Celtic intimate history, its culture and traditions.
