  1. Galicia had a Celtic population during the Bronze Age until the Romans, but they should not be confused with the culture of the forts, small fortified citadels. Galician is not a Celtic language in the first place because it is a Romance language, derived from Latin and secondly because the Celts disappeared before the Romans arrived and they did not know how to write, neither here, nor in Ireland, nor in Scotland nor in Wales. Celtic was a Germanic tribe from southern Germany and as a culture they are all the peoples who lived near the Atlantic in Europe until the Iron Age with some similar customs, certainly not meritorious, including Icelanders. Therefore there is nothing Celtic left in Galicia, nothing, nor is it the cradle of the Irish. All of these are myths invented by nationalism during Romanticism. Gauls have passed since then, hence the name Kalekos in Greek, Gallaecia in Latin. Swabians, Visigoths, 50 years partly of Arabs (racial mixing was prohibited) Visigoths again, East Germanic people who are the Spanish genetic base.

  2. Kilt is an invention of the XVII century as the gaelic. Round houses you can find in Balearic Islands, Tunez, América, etc. Irish are descendents of bretons, britons, saxons and vikings. Nothing to do with galicians except bretons, two invasions in IX and XI centuries by the presion of the francs in north Galicia. You can't write any book about celts because you don't know nothing about celts.
