Celtic culture started in mainland Europe. I did a very long paper on the Celts in college, which dispelled a lot of myths for me. I was shocked, really. I thought a Celt was a hairy red headed man from the north of Britain, who played the pipes and wore a skirt.
Dig it, baby.
Peace.
edit:
This gets tricky when you start confusing languages with cultures. The two are not the same. Different Celts spoke different languages. All Indo-European though.
