The Celts

The Celts lived a very long time ago.

The time when the Celts lived is called ‘The Iron Age’ because

they discovered iron.

They used it to make weapons, tools and jewellery.

Some Celtic people lived in small villages

or settlements.Their houses were called

roundhouses because of their shape.

Some people kept animals in their homes.

This shows the inside of a roundhouse.

Other Celtic people lived in hillforts.

The hillfort was protected by a strong wooden fence called

a palisade.

Some Celts were warriors who fought to protect their

homes and families.

The Celts wore simple clothes, held together by brooches or ties.

Farming was very important and there were

many animals in the villages.

The Celts came from Central Europe but moved to other

places.

Many Celts lived in Wales.
