Is your reference to "Keltoi and Franks" within the last 100 years? I'm not sure I understand.

2-4% of the people in a warzone with missing limbs I do understand.

Thanks for your input.

No, the Keltoi are the Celts. They settled in Anatolia and mingled/migrated throughout the area due to wars and dispersement.

The Franks were the Crusaders and many were Celtic.

The Iraqis of today have an inordinate number of people with missing limbs, much like Viet Nam, due to the long years of war. Also, Saddam used to torture people so badly that they lost limbs as a result. It is reported that one armed and one-legged people are not that uncommon and this predates the US crusade.
