A typically thought-provoking thread from @_alice_evans causing me to think afresh about evidence from Celtic-speaking societies. This time on myths and realities of women warriors. IA Gaulish (Redones) coin. #CC1A

Warrior women really did exist - proficient in mounted archery. Their culture was radically different, far more gender equal than the Ancient Greeks. "Sexually free and dangerous" women excited Greek curiosity, and inspired "creative story-telling". - Adrienne Mayor

Anticipating this with a mixture of excitement and trepidation. That they've even heard of the Maetae is surely a good sign. #CC1A #Boudica #Druids

Another one for #CC1a fans and those suffering #celticconnections withdrawal symptoms: archaeologists recover bridge of a stringed musical instrument from Perthshire #crannog. Dates to 500 BC = one of oldest in Europe.
