Celts, politics and motivation in archaeology / Simon James.

Antiquity 72 (1999): 200-209

Ruth & Vincent Megaw questioned the motivation behind the current critique of the use of the term 'Celtic' for the La Téne Iron Age in ANTIQUITY (1996: 175Ð81). They explained it is a nationalist reaction derived from insecurity about modern English identity. Here we have a reply to their paper, whcih rejects these interpretations.
