The Celts were a large group of tribes in Europe that first appeared in the Early Iron Age, around 1200 B.C. in Austria.

This is my bodhron and chipin, celtic bodhrons used a goats leg bone as a chipin but even modern day bodhrans use vellum or cow skin as a skin

The warriors would often paint themselves blue and try to scare their enemies by charging at them naked and shouting. They also had their own type of sword that was really good at smashing things.

The walls of the houses were made of wood however when there was not enough trees to complete all the houses and keep lots of shade they used stone. They had thatched roofs. When you entered the house there would be only one room where the family would eat, sleep, cook and talk. In the centre of the room would be a fire.
