so am i, tho not necessarily the turkish bit in particular, my maternal grandmother was a galician from the northernmost province of austro-hungary, roughly halfway between Krakow and Wien. the other galicia is in the northern part of spain. celtic groups lived in a broad band north of the roman empire, the gaels, gauls or celts were ,of course, a cultured people with a rich history of justice, artistry and craftsmanship.

a warrior culture of the heroic individual that could not deal well with the organized synchronized soldiery of rome who were deathly afraid of them and thus had to destroy them; which they did by not only conquest but by absorption into the pax romana and by documenting them as 'uncivilized barbarians' they even tried to destroy their history...
