"Celtic found to have ancient roots"

Yes , but if I use a little grecian formula for men, nobody notices =^)

Seriously though, I have seen other sources that places celtic parent culture as originating as far away as nepal or tibet. Whatever the truth may be , no one can debate that as an ethno linguistic group the celts sure do get around.

Celtic culture was derived from the main Aryanic culture, but it developed in Europe. the langauge too developed in Europe. And the high points of Celtic culture came after the introduction of Christianity to Ireland. For the time from 400 AD to 1000 AD, IREland WAS the flower of civilisation. However, the Celts are not and were not a primarily racial group, more, as you point out a ethno-linguistic group.
