It blows my mind that there were Celts in Anatolia and north of Crimea.

Supposedly Celts are responsible for chainmail and the shields the Greeks used.
Even if Germanics come in like a storm, I'd expect there to be more Celtic nations left other than Ireland.

Most "Celts" were actually cucks who just learned some proto-Hitlerspeak developed in Austria in the 5th century BC.
These same cucks naturally switched over to other languages without putting up a fight.

Ever seen a Celtic woman and a Celtic man? The woman has all the fire until you booze up the man. Then he finds his balls, but can't do anything with them. The entirety of their war strategy throughout most of time has been, "lets get' em." As we see all across history, any society/culture that the men are that lackluster in society building, technology and warfare gets trampled.

Great music, beautiful stories and art, can't stop from being fucked up the ass against their will.

Doesn't help they weren't a unified culture. The Roman's fought them one at a time and picked apart lose confederations. A real army with logistics will trump tribal warriors every time.

Even in afgahinsatn or vietnam for a modern example. The US rarely lost a fight but could not kill them fast enough or alter their society sufficiently to prevent new warriors from spawning

Migrations weren't all that uncommon back then, both Celtic and Germanic tribes/confederations moved whenever their homeland got too hard for them to live on. They originally went to Thrace and then tried to invade Greece but got their shit handed to them, so they kept moving until they could settle a place where they could beat back the natives.

I get the most massive history boner thinking about a timeline in which the 19th century British get to northern India, start sending scouts into Afghanistan, and find Greco-bactrian kingdoms: still building parthenon-style buildings, worshipping Zeus, performing Aristophanes plays, and generally maintaining little islands of ancient Greek civilisation constantly under siege from Muslim tribes.

Basically like The Land That Time Forgot, only with Greeks instead of dinosaurs.

The French and English standardized their languages, eliminating the small localized languages.

The Irish didn't speak one language, they spoke several dialects of Gaelic, this has left a legacy of extremely contrasting accents in disparate parts of the Island.

Most regions of Europe have this phenomenon, but the French and English were more militaristic in standardizing their languages into the regions.

Scandinavia has some Celtic DNA although this can be chalked up to thralls.

The Celts still control most of Europe.
R1b is the trademark "Celtic" DNA, this is prevalent in Western Europe.
Germanic DNA exists only in Scandinavia and there are very few true Germanics left.
If we talk about language then Germanic language is very widespread and the same goes for the Romance languages of the Mediterraneans.
But the Latins too have R1b in high quantities.
Germanics gave their language and part of the their culture.

If by "defeated" you mean the Gauls instead went around to attack Aetolian villages defending by women and children, only to lose there, and return to Thermopylae to find it abandoned and for them to pass through, then yeah they won that battle.

You clearly don't understand what the term 'Celtic' means. R1b is not the trademark celtic gene marker. R1b is associated with an Atlantic neolithic-bronze age culture that long predates the Indo-European invasions (remember, the celtic language has its origins in central asia or the eastern black sea region).

>mfw Greek cucks
>>2263536
That's not true or at least its not the whole story.
We only saw Celtic culture arise where we had high concentrations of R1b.
The origin of Celtic language being non-European doesn't mean the Celts were indo-euros, the Celts certainly aren't Germanic yet plenty of Celtic countries speak Germanic languages, Austria for example speaks German and French has more than a few German elements.
Same for the U.K. and Ireland.
The language might come from somewhere different, but the people, the people were always in Europe and always in areas where Celtic culture was dominant.
R1b is still the dominant Haplogroup in Western Europe today and has even expanded into areas that were previously dominated by I1.
>>
>>2263624
>We only saw Celtic culture arise where we had high concentrations of R1b.
That's not true either. The Celtic culture arose in southern Germany or the northern alps - R1b is more associated with the Atlantic coast. The modern day celtic remnants are all in R1b areas, but that's just because the central core of celtic culture was taken over by the Romans and Germanic tribes.

>The origin of Celtic language being non-European doesn't mean the Celts were indo-euros
The people might only have had traces of Indo-European ancestry, but it does mean Celtic is an Indo-European culture.

The term 'celtic' can be used in terms of a (now all but extinct) cultural group, but it doesn't fit well with any genetically determined racial group. The French, British, German, etc people whose ancestors would have been Celts also have European ancestors who pre-dated the celts arrival, so if you're going to go by lineage rather than current cultural group, why stop at celt, rather than go all the way back to Europe's pre-celtic roots.

>>2263705
You do realize over half of Germany is R1b right?
The Alps have very few I1s and Germany has more but not as much as we theorize they used to.
Scandinavia is the only population with significant numbers of I1.
R1b is most heavily concentrated on the Atlantic coast.
But we find it to be the majority throughout Western and Central and sometimes Southern Europe.
Celtic really isn't an indo-euro culture.
Celtic as we know it began with Halstatt culture which we don't know where that came from but we know it was concentrated in Austria.
The language was probably influenced greatly to the point of no greatly distinguished forms from indo-euro language.
It fits quite well with the R1b group since Celtic culture and the longest running conception of Celtic language not only arose out of R1b but existed within R1b groups.
Perhaps there were some linguistic cultural Celts in the Hindu-Kush or something outlandish, but Celtic as we know it, as a defined term can be pinned upon R1b.
R1b isn't a racial group btw...
>Celts arrival
You mean the arrival of what the ethnic Celts adopted what would become what we understand to be Celtic language.
By arguing a language and people are synonymous and thus the Celts as we know them are indo-euros one might easily make the argument that everyone is really just some early proto-communication or something. It's a logical stretch.
The Celts, as in R1b and the greatest promulgators of Celtic culture, were always in Europe. (not technically but you know what I mean)

Genes do make you Celtic...
If you're descended from Celts, you're a Celt.
Celt, as I've established is an ethnic group.
That is the greatest and most concise understanding of the term "Celt".
Were there Cultural Celts outside of this group?
Absolutely, but the genetic group that most identifies with Celtic culture and language is the R1b haplogroup.
>>2263720
>having traces of Germanic DNA makes you a full Germanic
Literally "He shares half a haplotype with us, full blooded German prince." tier.
Notice how the Germanic peoples who carried I1 migrated in wave after wave across Europe, yet outside of Scandinavia and Northern Germany they are not only a minority but a very significant one, to the point where they probably have Scandi genes but not even the haplotype.
And even then, the genes get fewer and fewer.
With the migrations, Germans should have taken over Europe genetically.
They didn't and instead actually lost ground.
Germany has more Celts than Germanics.
In terms of Genes of course.

Ethnicity is primarily a cultural thing. You might day that "ancestral" might hold weight, but ancestry in most minds is a matter where their way of life came from, not a haplogroup.
When you live life speaking a Romance language, eating Mediterranean food, in romance architecture, the populace will believe their lineage came from Latins. Ethnicity is a manner of living, not haplogroups.

Folks had ethnicities before they had knowledge of genes. You weren't a Hittite because you sent a cheek swab into 23andme for 99.99$.

no it's not.

it's a geneological thing.

a negro droppe into england as a baby in teh 12 th century would not be an anglo saxon.

and if an anglo saxon baby were kidnapped by barbary pirates and ended raised in an ottoman household, he would not retroactively become turkic.

it's decided by ancestry and therefore genes.

and obvously they did nothave dna tests but they did have an idea about ancestry.
>>
>>2263920
Did you just ignore the cited definition of ethnicity or what?

The reason the negro wouldn't be accepted would be because the whole of the community would be reminded by his dark skin that he didn't share ancestry with them. That's because of identity, not genealogy. A Polanian family washing up on Mercia's shores that goes on to assimilate into the Anglo ethnicity, and drop all culture of their Polanian "heritage" would be assimilated by the next generation.

You had to leap to the farthest disparity possible, but even then that's because physical appearance provides a constant reminder, not because of genealogy.

>but they did have an idea about ancestry
Which is why all southern Germany and England identify as Gaulic and Brythonic people rather than as Englishmen and Germans, right? Because they're Celtic because of genes and know it, right? No?

Look up ethnology.

Not an argument

Meanwhile :
The Hittites (c. 2000-1178 BCE) were the first Indo-Europeans to defy (and defeat) the mighty Mesopotamian and Egyptian empires. There are two hypotheses regarding the origins of the Hittites. The first is that they came from the eastern Balkans and invaded Anatolia by crossing the Bosphorus. That would mean that they belonged either to the L23* or the Z2103 subclade. The other plausible scenario is that they were an offshoot of the late Maykop culture, and that they crossed the Caucasus to conquer the Hattian kingdom (perhaps after being displaced from the North Caucasus by the R1a people of the griffin Catacomb culture). In that case the Hittites might have belonged to the R1b-M269* or the R1b-M73 subclade. The first hypothesis has the advantage of having a single nucleus, the Balkans, as the post-Yamna expansion of all Indo-European R1b. The Maykop hypothesis, on the other hand, would explain why the Anatolian branch of IE languages (Hittite, Luwian, Lydian, Palaic) is so archaic compared to other Indo-European languages, which would have originated in Yamna rather than Maykop.
There is substantial archaeological and linguistic evidence that Troy was an Indo-European city associated with the steppe culture and haplogroup R1b. The Trojans were Luwian speakers related to the Hittites (hence Indo-European), with attested cultural ties to the culture of the Pontic-Caspian steppe. The first city of Troy dates back to 3000 BCE, right in the middle of the Maykop period. Troy might have been founded by Maykop people as a colony securing the trade routes between the Black Sea and the Aegean. The founding of Troy happens to coincide exactly with the time the first galleys were made. Considering the early foundation of Troy, the most likely of the two Indo-European paternal haplogroups would be R1b-M269 or L23.

So EVERYONE has to have the same haplogroup to form an ethnicity, all R1B, with absolutely no regard for the tangible aspects of ethnicity that is made clear to be culture.

Notions of ancestry in a national consciousness do not neatly fall alongside haplogroups.

I fucking GUARANTEE you that there were ancient Gauls without R1B.

By absolutely no definition of ethnicity or nation is it defined solely by a genealogical haplogroup.
>>
>>2264997
>Notions of ancestry in a national consciousness do not neatly fall alongside haplogroups.

It doesn't orignally, but if you want to go beyond the "Myth of Ancestry" you must use genetics to either confirm or infirm your claim, and surprisingly enough, the claim of the Celts(by race) was revealed to be true unlike the claim of the Germanics who are in fact a mix of R1B, R1A, and I1, contrary to the Celts who are mostly(70% + on average) R1B

It is

This is why you have French claiming Celtic ancestry, Galicians claiming Celtic ancestry, or even English claiming Celtic Ancestry despite they do not speak a Celtic language or have a Celtic culture.

"Celt" unlike "German" or "Slav" is purely racial.

The 30% are mostly composed of Germanic invaders, pre Indo-European natives, they are clearly distinguishable from the Celts and aren't considered as Celts.


Meanwhile, the Germans are so mixed they don't have a prevalent haplogroup-ancestry, and basically anyone speaking a Germanic language will be considered as Germanic.

Haplogroups don't mean shit, you ignorant plastic paddy.

Truth is, Celts were disorganized and feral primitives who were good at metallurgy and bad at everything else. Hence why they always got their asses kicked by the Romans and later the Germanic peoples such as the Franks and Anglo-Saxons.

The only Celtic regions left in Europe are Ireland, Scotland, Isle of Man, Wales, and small regions of France (Brittany) and Spain (Galicia).

Celts were not this great civilization nor were they some kind of European master race. They were quite the opposite on both ends.

I'm of almost exclusively insular Celtic blood (Irish Catholic and Scots-Irish/Ulster Scots) and Plastic Paddies/Celtic Romanticists who like to LARP like they're pic related always piss me off.

Just accept the fact that the Greeks, Romans, and Germanics were better than you at civilization. Though I will admit that the Celts were good at metalworking and also great at poetry and art, so not all is lost.

I'm not using an absolute principle of division you dingus, I'm talking about general association.

>modern Celtic culture is the defining factor of Celtic culture
Celtic culture was widespread throughout Europe. Germany, Austria, France, Spain, and England are more akin to eachother in culture and genetics than they are to Scandinavia.
I even made this distinction already.
The majority of Germanic culture, where Germanic culture is the majority is soley in Scandinavia. (Some U.S. states could be exceptions arguably)
The greatest association of Celtic culture and a genetic group is R1b.
R1bers do tend to differ from each other in no significant way in terms of genetics

t. I2
Having an R1b in Europe means you are almost genetically the same as anyone else who has an R1b in Europe.
It is one of the most pure sub races of Europe and is easily understood as the R1b group.
This does not mean that Haplogroups determine race, it just so happens to be this way in Europe. Stop being retarded.
but wait there friendo, Genetically the Celts and the Latins and the Rhineland Germans were closer than Latins to Greeks (ancient 'pure' Greeks) and Rhinelanders to Norwegians/Swedes/Danes.
>le Celts got their asses kicked
By other Celts you fucking retard.
Strangely enough, I am not fitting your description of me.
I am Germanic and Greek, not Celtic.
The Germanics have better poems and stories.
The Greeks were far better and more creative metal workers than the Celts.
In both cases that you lift up the Celts I denigrate them.
I associate the Celts (SINCE THEY ARE STILL FUCKING AROUND) with modern European achievement.
Law, Art, Architecture, Economics, Warfare, Exploration, The Sciences, etc.
Everything great to come out of Europe (Aside from Ancient Greece and the general godess tier status of Germanic women) is a Celtic achievement.

On a side note, the Saxons were more Celtic than Scandinavians. Not the Anglos or the Frisians tho, nor the Jutes.
The Franks were Celts during the days of Caesar.

Also, the proto-Danes, had Celtic culture, allegedly.
Or at least their king had a Celtic name, but for a king to adopt any name means that culture must have been significant to the royal blood line or the people in general.
Teutobod was probably a Celt.

You falsely attribute haplogroups to define an ethnicity, a blatantly wrong premise.

We create ethnicity along the ways of life, language, and culture we see. Romans didn't determine that the British Isles were Celtic because they recorded the ancient migration into it, or because they took their Y DNA, they observed their language, dwellings, and gods.

You've got it backwards. Geneology can be an asset in mapping ethnic history, but it's not the herald of it. More like the footprints.

Look at the fucking genetics.
I already said the haplogroup doesn't define race/ethnic make up, you fucking mongoloid.
I said in Europe, only in fucking Europe and only in Western and Central does R1b denote a specific genetic makeup.
The Romans observed their physical features.
They made distinctions about the Germanics and Celtics based upon physical features (basic genetic makeup for the ancients).
They even said Celtic peoples and Germanic peoples had significant influences and replacements of each others cultures.
What this means is the distinction then was genetic, I am simply pointing out that we can still make a genetic distinction.
Celtic culture is tied in terms of lineage and association with R1b.

Faggot, you've got it backwards.
They developed ethnicities based on what we always have, through language, religion, culture, way of life and had original genetics that helped map then, but didn't define them.
Romans didn't know that Britannia was full of Celts like the continent because they mapped their genes and had records of them migrating there thousands of years ago, they did so because they spoke alike, worshipped alike, and lived alike.

>They made distinctions about the Germanics and Celtics based upon physical features (basic genetic makeup for the ancients).

Absolutely wrong lol

Y-DNA is all of 200 genes. MtDNA is all of 37 genes.

You're claiming all of human ethnicity can be accounted for by 237 genes. If you're a stormfag, that would be hilarious considering what other viewpoints you're likely to hold.

Ancestry simply measures which particular bumfucking primate established your male or female lineage. It doesn't mean you have all - or even a significant portion - of that bumfucking primate's genetic material. That bumfucking primate's descendants breeded out, took in gene flow from other sources. So long as the male (or female) lineage remains intact, the Y-DNA (or MtDNA) haplogroup will remain the same even if full SNP analysis would reveal much difference. Your male line ancestor could fuck as many partners as he wanted and pop out a million babies with a million different women and they'll all still have his haplogroup even if genetically they'd all be divergent. Some of those children could go on to establish one ethnicity, another group could go to establish another ethnicity, and they'd both still have the same haplogroup in the end.

Then you have to consider mutations, viruses or bacterium fucking with your DNA at random, radiation, horizontal gene transfer etc etc.

tl;dr no, your ancestry is not your ethnicity. use full SNP analysis for all questions of ethnicity, not haplogroups.
