82. "Genetics is mostly irrelevant when it comes to defining what compromises a people or society"
Sat Apr 17, 2021, 04:12 PM

Well, that's the point of "there wasn't a "Celtic people" who were related", isn't it? They shared a family of languages (in the British Isles alone there were the Goedelic and Brittonic groups, even before the Romans arrived; there's a lot of difference between Welsh and Gaelic. What Pictish was like is still unclear, though it's agreed it was Brittonic, but it wasn't just Welsh, despite being on the same island). English and German are in one family of languages, but that doesn't mean speakers understand both. Celtic religious beliefs aren't that well understood, and we can't claim they all shared the same ones.
