The Urnfield Culture (blue) 🇩🇪⚜️🇫🇷🇪🇸🇸🇰🇸🇮🇮🇹🇭🇺🇧🇪🇦🇹🇵🇱🇱🇺🇨🇭🇹🇩🇨🇿 Map by P.L. Kessler & Edward Dawson.

The Urnfield Culture appeared in southern Germany between 1300 and 1200 B.C; its original bearers were almost undoubtedly Celtic or “proto-Celtic” speakers. It grew from the preceding Tumulus Culture, due in large part to cultural influences from (probably proto-Dacian) groups in the Pannonian Basin, who introduced a new warrior ideology centered around the immortality of the soul, with cremation or consumption by birds of prey (in the case of fallen warriors) guaranteeing a quick reincarnation, rather than the deceased languishing in the underworld for ages as was thought to be the case with inhumation.

The Urnfield culture quickly expanded to surrounding parts of Europe, in many cases evidencing migrations and conquests by Celtic groups, such as in eastern and southern France, northwestern Italy, Spain, and the western Czech Republic. In other areas, such as Moravia, Slovakia, Poland, northwest Germany, Slovenia, central Italy, Hungary, and Romania, its expansion was more likely the result of cultural adoption by native groups such as Slavs, Germanics, Italics and Dacians. Judging from the explosive expansion and the wealth found in settlements and graves, it seems that this era was characterized by Celtic dominance across Europe; the invasions seemed unstoppable and neighboring groups apparently admired them so much that they aped their culture. The previous Tumulus Culture (proto-Celtic? Italo-Celtic?) had in like manner dominated central Europe, though its hegemony seems to have come to an end dramatically with the destruction of a large army at the Tollense River, during a botched attempt to invade Germanic lands to the north. Genetic and other forensic evidence indicates that the defeated force consisted largely of men from central Europe, mainly Poland, the Czech Republic, and southern Germany (ancestors mainly of Slavs and Gauls?). The crisis and power vacuum engendered by this event seems to have been the catalyst for the emergence of the Urnfield Culture, with new groups harnessing new warrior ideologies to reach new levels of strength and fill a power-vacuum. A new era of Celtic dominance emerged, which would last until the beginning to middle of the 2nd century B.C; about a millennium.

The Urnfield Culture itself became phased out over time, with Gallic peoples reverting to inhumation as the primary form of burial during the Hallstatt (~800 B.C.) and La Tène (~450 B.C.) periods, while cremation persisted as the practice among other peoples, particularly Slavs, for quite some time. Only in Iberia did Celtic peoples continue with the old paradigm of immolation of the deceased and burial in urn-fields, up until the time of Roman conquest. In a certain sense, the culture and world-view of the Celtiberians and other Hispano-Celtic peoples reflected an older pan-European paradigm that had long ceased to exist in the Celtic world by the time the La Tène culture had emerged.

The Roman Republic still rules the world to this day. 🏳️

The only thing that’s different is that Anglo-Saxons 🇺🇸 have taken the sceptre, while the original Romans🇻🇦languish in defeat. The new Republic has also achieved this power in large part by teaming up with a certain other tribal group 🇮🇱 and with their Anglo-Saxon kindred 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 across the pond. In certain respects, the world hasn’t changed all that much. The powers that be are the same ones that destroyed Celtic Europe. But what about the Celts? Do they no longer exist? Actually, they do. It’s just that most don’t remember who they actually are. They also don’t have their own governments (excepting maybe the Irish?), being ruled rather by puppet states of the Roman Republic (the Republic of Ireland 🇮🇪 is just another submissive globalist puppet; let’s be real).
