But that does not mean a thing in antiquity, languages were like fashion that extended all around. Most pre-Roman western Europe spoke celtic languages. The "celtism" is a modern romantic mouvement that associates bagpipes and redhaired fairies with Celts, and some dimwits confuse celts with red hair. Celts practically included every every ethnicity in Europe.
Sure! At one point, Celtic languages were widespread throughout Western Europe and came to Northern Europe (British Isles) by way of Western Europe (France, Belgium,etc...). The Roman-era, was the turning point for the disappearance of Celtic language, "Celtism", Celtic culture throughout Western Europe. However Celtic strongholds remained in the British Isles, especially regions which did not get contact or enough contact with Roman civilization. You babbling about red hair and so on. Oh well, ancient Romans themselves noted the Caledoni people for their red hair, didn't they? Queen Boudicca of the Iceni people was also noted for her terrifying appearance, with her long uncut red hair. To this day, modern Celtic nations like Ireland, Scotland and Wales still have comparatively higher frequency of red-headed people than other European nations. It is quite obvious! This doesn't necessarily mean that the majority of Celtic people have red hair, but it is quite common. Don't be the dimwit!! Remember , there various principal groups of Celts, Insular Celtic and Continental Celtic. When people refer as Celts, dimwits have a problem with it, when others refer as Germanics/Slavics as blondes no one seem to argue.

you know what i noticed is that gingers have pink skin tones. and also nice cherry picked photos especially the last with the girl thats also died hair and the pic doesn't show her natural skin tone i know she is obviously not in person but from other stuff and she is not pale. and also you once said that Lindsay was not a ginger but she is. Also you once said that redheads are redheads because there are different shades of red well there are different shades of orange and orange heads look orange not red in picks it might look more reddish of pics but you ignore that fact and cherry pick

i remember that you said something translucent skin what do you mean by that because a polar bears hair is translucent but not skin.
But that does not mean a thing in antiquity, languages were like fashion that extended all around. Most pre-Roman western Europe spoke celtic languages.

It doesn't matter about what languages were spoken in antiquity in different countries as many places have large population changes. The fact is that the Irish, Welsh were majority Celtic speaking up to the modern era and parts of Scotland also and there are still places in both Ireland and Wales that never stopped speaking a Celtic language so it is ridiculous to deny this. I find it hypocritical that people for some reason use different yardsticks for Celts than what is used for Germanics and Slavic groups.
There is a good book coming out in September called The Blood of the Celts. The Celts most likely developed along the Rhine and spread to other areas.
"Blood of the Celts brings together genetic, archaeological, and linguistic evidence to address the often-debated question: who were the Celts? What peoples or cultural identities should that term describe? And did they in fact inhabit the British Isles before the Romans arrived? Author Jean Manco challenges existing accounts of the origins of the Celts, providing a new analysis that draws on the latest discoveries as well as ancient history."
I'm especially interested in the dna but I think ydna will be used to unravel the question of the Celts. DNA now is answering a lot of questions about human origins.
There is more evidence now that Celtic languages were spoken in places like Ireland before La Tene.
It's true that, it isn't always easy to tell the difference between Europeans. They are actually similar, but generalizations are light complexions are more evident among those from the north than those of the south. There are now ratios, people with pure blonde (light blonde) hair are commonest in Scandinavia, while those with red hair (like mine) are commonest in the British Isles, those with pure black hair are commonest in the Mediterranean countries. However individually, Europeans may have any hair color.
These girls are without doubt from the British Isles!
they pass as any norther euro. Carrot top. like i said before you are germanic but you obsessed for lack of a better word with celts because the celts resemble you more than germanics supposedly but the fact is that celts are from central Europe. You studied the mc1r gene which you carry and you found out that its most common in the isles and found that it effects skin and hair and so you will be biased because you believe lighter skin is better and since the isles represent your look you say they are the lightest because since your a ginger you are similar to them. and arent you auburn headed.

Dna anylysis is saying that 1000 years ago only three people contributed to all central and norther european people which means all central and northern euros are very closely related so know one is superior than the other as saxon might say because of skin tone

What you have posted above is obviously not accurate. 1000 years ago isn't very far back at all and populations were fairly stable at that time. That's the time of the Viking raids.
DNA and genetic studies has nothing to do with racial supremacy.
That's it, clothes, haistyles..how they walk, how they hung together. Easiest are, as you said, Asians, Russians..and Italians, you can spot an Italian by the way they move. French also, as they have a very specific gestuality. Germans, unless they travel in group, abteilungs. English, lack of sun, awful clothing..and yes, hairstyles...Americans, screeching, shrilling accent, don't know how to walk in crowded areas.
But "ethnicity", not really, more by "Carrefour", "Decathon", "Liddle", etc.
English lack of sun? but it is actually quite sunny the cloudy thing is a myth and they seem quite tan when i went
