A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE CELTS
For
800 years the Celts were the most powerful people in central and
northern Europe. There were many tribes of Celts who spoke related
languages, shared similar customs and beliefs, and created works of art
in closely connected styles.
Invaders, such as the Romans,
eventually drove them from their lands, although they never managed to
conquer all the Celts, with parts of Scotland, Wales, Cornwall and
Ireland continuing under Celtic rule until about AD1100.
It is in
these lands that Celtic art and designs survived, carved into stone
crosses and discovered on jewellery and ornaments. Religious scholars
and monks adopted the traditions of Celtic art, creating illuminated
texts such as the Book of Kells.
The Celtic Cross evolved, with
the circle that surrounds the cross symbolising the ’great wheel of
life’ and knotwork denoting the binding of the soul to the world.
