In this episode I discuss the settlement of Britain. Today, the vast majority of speakers of a Celtic language live in the British Isles. Investigating the beginnings of life in Britain is important to understanding the settlement and spread of Celtic into Britain. While not comprehensive this is an introduction to the settlement of Britain by early hunter-gatherer groups which gave way to Neolithic settlements and eventually the settlement of the Isles by Celtic peoples.
