SOURCES ON THE CELTS.....ALL OF THEM.

 Celtic Peoples of  Europe: This analogy may anger some folks, but I believe it applies here.  The term  "Celts" or "Celtic People" is, in reality, akin to the term "Native American" or " American Indigenous Culture/People".    Neither really refer to a specific people of a specific band, but to a mass grouping of peoples and tribes and clans and what have you that all have similarities in culture, range, genetic backgrounds, etc.    Both examples are broad, all encompassing titles that, despite how broad they are,  are readily and easily recognizable on the surface.  However, neither are as cut and dried as that, and both terms should always come with a Realization AND Recognition that there is far more information and identity there.

THE SOURCES

First off, I am going to cheat.  The easiest sources are at the top, The more detailed stuff at the bottom.  but for the expediant nature of this source list, the quick and dirty sources that have listed lots of sources for me (see, a cheat code) will be listed first.
