Hey there kiddo, do you know what a time before the Celts are? It’s called pre-Celtic!
So way back when, before the Celts, there were different groups of people living in different parts of the world. In Europe, which is where the Celts eventually lived, there were a lot of different groups too.
The pre-Celtic people were the ones who lived in the areas that eventually became the Celtic lands. They were different from the Celts in a lot of ways, but they were still really important because they helped shape the culture and history of the Celts that came after them.
The pre-Celtic people didn’t write things down, so we don’t know a lot of details about them. But we do know that they believed in gods and goddesses, and they had their own languages, beliefs, and customs.
When the Celts eventually came to these areas, they probably mixed with the pre-Celtic people and learned from them. And that’s how the Celts developed their own unique culture that we know so much about today.
So even though we don’t know a lot about the pre-Celtic people, they were still really important in shaping the history of Europe and the people who came after them.
