Irish conference

... The first step in understanding one's origins is to discard myths and accept the evidence of genetics, anthropology, archaeology, and documented history."

Presentation Abstracts | American Ancestors

Bruce Durie presented evidence from a number of angles - this is part of the abstract for his talk:

"It has become clear that the term "Celtic" as applied to Scots, Irish, Welsh, Manx, Cornish, and Bretons is a complete misnomer—the error of a well-meaning scholar ca. 1700, and polished to a high gleam during the "Celtic Revival" of the late 19th century. In fact, the indigenous peoples and cultures of Britain and Ireland pre-date the European Celts by 1500–2000 years. ...

I had a great trip to Boston last week for the 36th International Congress of Genealogical and Heraldic Sciences, organised by American Ancestors. I caught up with friends, toured old graveyards and learned why the Scots and Irish are not Celtic!
