<p>[QUOTE=&quot;tbarreca, post: 725354, member: 21275&quot;]Extremely cool.&nbsp; I think that most of what we know today about Celtic culture comes from its remnants in Britanny and the British isles, as opposed to its origins in Central Europe.&nbsp;&nbsp; This includes, for example, legends about Cuchalain, the (probably mythical, I think) king of Ireland the various stories about Celtic religion put together by folks like the poet, William Butler Yeats, and his friend, Lady Gregory.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I only mention this because it would be interesting to match up the devices on these coins with other cultural or political landmarks, like mythical figures (the owl is a symbol of Athena on Greek coins, for example) or political leaders like kings (tribal chieftains).</p><p><br /></p><p>I am very curious about this.&nbsp; Does anyone know of any work along these lines?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
