The book explores the early inhabitants of Celtic lands and their interactions during the Bronze Age, with a specific focus on the evolution and spread of Celtic languages, cultures, and metallic trade. Likely appealing to readers interested in archaeology, anthropology, and the history of European prehistory, the text emphasizes how ancient cultures have influenced the modern understanding of Celtic origins. The opening of the book establishes the framework for Peake's examination of Celtic languages and their historical context. He outlines that for the last fifteen hundred years, the Celtic tongues have been confined mainly to regions in the north-west of Europe but were once more widespread. Peake discusses the significant role of Roman influence in the language's decline and presents complex questions regarding the languages' origin and spread, hinting at the diverse groups that occupied these regions before the Celts. The chapter sets the stage for a more in-depth exploration of prehistoric archaeology, physical anthropology, and comparative philology, all aimed at understanding the Celtic roots and their interactions with other cultures throughout history.
