历史一直认为盎格鲁-撒克逊人取代铁器时代的凯尔特人是不列颠人的起源。凯尔特人的英国重建英国的人民-通过遗传学，气候学，考古学，语言，文化和历史的研究-并推翻了神话和其他人。据说征服了凯尔特人的盎格鲁-撒克逊人只贡献了英国基因库的5%到10%。长期以来，人们一直认为“大西洋凯尔特人”是在铁器时代大约公元前300年从中欧迁移到英国的，他们与巴斯克地区的人们有着基因上的联系。语言学证据表明，除了凯尔特语之外，早在盎格鲁-撒克逊人到来之前，一种类似于挪威语的日耳曼类型的语言也在英国使用。在这项开创性的研究中，斯蒂芬·奥本海默解释了英国，爱尔兰，苏格兰和威尔士当今文化身份的惊人根源。
History has long maintained that the Anglo-Saxon overtaking of the Iron Age Celts was the origin of the British people. Celtic Britain reconstructs the peopling of Britain -- through a study of genetics, climatology, archaeology, language, culture, and history -- and overturns that myth and others. The Anglo-Saxons, who supposedly conquered the Celts, contributed only five to ten percent of the British gene pool. The "Atlantic Celts," long believed to have migrated to Britain from Central Europe around 300 BC during the Iron Age, can be linked genetically to the people of Basque country. And linguistic evidence suggests that, besides Celtic languages, a Germanic-type language similar to Norse was also spoken in Britain long before the arrival of the Anglo-Saxons. In this groundbreaking study, Stephen Oppenheimer explaines the surprising roots of the present-day cultural identities of the English, Irish, Scottish, and Welsh.
