Meaning what this word: Celtic. Gaul, Galata, Gaulisc
#3
According to the Legend when Herkules lost some of Geriones Cattle on the way back to Mycenae he tracked them down. While wondering he met a local queen and had a son who was called Keltis.
The legend probably hides the trade relations of Minoan and Mycenan Greeks from the Bronze Age.
Al least Mycenean swords have been found in Northen Europe and Celtic swords in Pylos and Tyrins.

Kelitas is also a type of horse mentioned in the Tyrins tablets.
Keltes the people who have horses -trade horses (know the art of horsebreeding)

Kind regards
