In 5600BC the freshwater Black Sea was flooded by a breach through the Bosphorus to the Mediterranean that converted the Black Sea to a saltwater lake.

This may have been Noah's Flood (Ryan & Pittman).

The whole area around the Black Sea at that time was very arid and the Proto-Celtic fishermen and 'irrigation' farmers would have been terribly stressed when the fresh water 'lake' was converted to salt water. They would have had to flee/migrate. The map illustrates possible migrations that ocurred during that period.

The map works for me at the conceptual level, but NOBODY ever asserted there were Celts in Europe in 5600 BC.
