And you do know, of course, that the Romans never fought in Ireland 'cause they feared those crazy Celts! ('Tis true!)

Well, it makes a good story. If the Romans had not had internal trouble they would have conquered the Picts and the Irish wouldn't have been far behind..

IMO the first Celts (proto) to arrive in Ireland were The Tuatha de Danann who made their way from Turkey (after the flood) via Iberia to Ireland where they encountered and fought the Fomorians who (IMO) were a seafaring black race.

The Tuatha de Danann may have been related to Noah and some believe they may even be members of the Tribe Of Dan
