The Celts: Search for Civilisation

Location
Arts Building Lecture Room 5 (R16 on campus map)
Dates
Friday 18 March 2016 (12:00-12:50)
Alice Roberts

Professor Alice Roberts takes us on a journey across Europe, sharing with us revelations about the origin of the Celts, how they lived and thrived, and their enduring modern legacy. 

This is the story of a multicultural civilisation, linked by a common language. It’s the story of how ideas travelled in prehistory: how technology and art spread across a continent. The Mediterranean civilisations may grab our attention, but it’s from the Atlantic shores of prehistoric Europe that a truly epic story unfolds.
