"Was it really "Celtic", or just looked similar? THe TOcharians were mediterranean in racial type, I belive."The skeletons (mummies) found in the presence of the Tocharian language were tall and red-headed and had fabrics like the Celts in Hallstadt, Austria.

Were the mummies really found in the TOcharian language area, and if so, do we really know...just for the sake of arguement that they were indeed Tocharians? Could their hair have been bleached by being in the dry arid earth for over a thousand years, or maybe affected by dyes? What I'm trying to say is that do we really know that red was their real hair color?
