The Celts

"Archaeological excavations have recovered some of the treasures of the Celts, as well as much evidence of their social and economic life. This revised paperback edition of the volume that accompanied an exhibition at the Palazzo, Grassi takes the reader on a voyage through many eras, places, and themes to rediscover the story of a people still in some ways shrouded in mystery. It reveals the aggressive voyages of the Celts to the shores of foreign civilizations, and evidence of their great sophistication - the Gallic calendar, their advanced agricultural techniques, their craftsmanship and metalwork."--Jacket.
