A hypothetical Celtic invasion of the Ukraine sounds to me like bad
logistics on the part of their hypothetical commander. There was
nothing to get there, as the Persian king discovered. And then they
would have stayed there for how long? If long enough to have their
language and culture influenced, where are the archaeological traces.
And how did they make it back to influence all the other Celts?
