It features more than 300 photographs and more than 80 specially commissioned maps and artworks. In terms of historical and geographical coverage, it is the most comprehensive reference work on the Celts. The Atlas of the Celts chronicles and maps the Celts' involvement (c.1000 BC) in salt~mining during the Late Bronze Age in Europe, their outstanding artistic achievements in pre~Roman Europe, their conflict with the Roman Empire, the role of the Celtic Church in early Christianity, and the Celtic emigration to North America in the 19th century. The Atlas of the Celts is arranged chronologically and spread~by~spread. The final chapter examines major themes such as jewellery, women, and gods. The appendices include: a detailed time chart of key events in Celtic history from 800 BC to AD 1000, an atlas of Celtic sites and museums, and a Who's Who in the Celtic World. The Atlas of the Celts includes a foreword by Dr Barry Raftery, Professor of Celtic Studies at University College Dublin. Dr Raftery acted as principal consultant editor on the Atlas of the Celts. Additonal consultation was provided by Dr Jane McIntosh of the University of Cambridge. The consultants have ensured that the Atlas of the Celts provides an up~to~date approach to the history of the Celts, discussing the various modern debates within Celtic studies. The Atlas of the Celts examines the changing meaning of Celtic identity, bringing together history, archaeology, and linguistics to create a clearer picture of 'Celticity'. The Atlas of the Celts is both an indispensable reference source for school and college use, and a beautifully illustrated book for everybody interested in the enduring history of the Celts.
