Ancient Spain boasted mariners whose skills were world-renowned, coinage that simplified trade, and iron swords that could cut through bronze weapons-and they all came from overseas. Three peoples came to Spain and left their mark on the country forever. Forget about 'Hamilton'-watch these "immigrants get the job done" thousands of years earlier.

She is a quality lecturer, lecturing on an amazing subject she is clearly qualified to discuss. Win/win, thanks so much for sharing!
Immensely proud of my Celtiberian heritage. My family hails from Asturies, Galicia and Northern Portugal.
Celiberian were not from there, they were from Eastern Castille and Aragon.
@@g-rexsaurus794 Gallaecians and the Astures were from there, though. And they were also Celtic.
@@g-rexsaurus794 Did you even watch the video?
Buenas! Claro que sí!!! Y yo orgulloso de ser íbero (y celtíbero) y tener ascendencia morisca sefardí. Nuestra historia es la ostia. Un saludo!
Congratulations! You most likely are an Israelite/Hebrew (Iberian).
To experience a Med olive grove under the hottest mid-day sun, the quiet and fulness and protection from the sun, is a transcendental moment. I had that experience when I was seventeen. It is real.
Great to see a lecturer with such a flair for storytelling!
Your very passionate about Iberia! I hope you do a video on when the Romans invaded, and another on the Iberian's themselves. Would love to hear you tell those ancient tales. Bravo!
Better explained than in my high school history classes. I'm from Madrid
Loved your passion in the presentation. You make history come alive
So true!
🇱🇧❤🇬🇷❤🇪🇸
Very good summary. My Grandmother and her family is from Galicia.
im a lebanese phoenician glad to know i have cousins in spain
me 2 ....
A Palestinian guy one time thought I looked Lebanese! 😛😛
Not just Spain the Phoenician alphabet is identical minus three syllables to the ancient Irish dialectic, which makes sense since the Gaelic (Irish) spoke to this day is closest to the Spanish Dialect of Celtic tongue, we are United in more ways than one brothers and sisters of the beautiful Middle East, they can’t hide our history!
Mostly Cádiz, Málaga and Ibiza.
@@longliveavalon Yeah, definetly not.
The Celtiberians were not "the Celts of Spain" but a Celtic tribe of the Iberian peninsula. One of many.
Very informative and well constructed video. One of the better history videos I have seen.
Awesome lecture. I learnt things about Iberia from this talk that I have rarely or never heard from other videos on the topic on TH-cam. So many facts I find interesting, and such a great choice of how to summarise the topic! A wonderful telling of the history of the area! I enjoyed it very much!
Thank you for this well made and passionate presentation of the Ancient History of Spain. ❤️
In the Irish book of invasions they claimed the Milesians (Celts with a chief named Mil) came from Spain. It's talked about in the Tuathe De Danaan. Fomorians, Fir Bolg, Danians, Fionn warriors and then the Milesians.
Mike Semon so what does this mean? That only a portion of celts in Ireland and Scotland came from Spain? Not sure what you meant by the comment
Gangus Khan So is this Niall gene 23&me false? A lot of mestizos from Mexico then to flag this.
@@erxfav3197 According to Irish mythology and most historians, the Celts of Ireland originally arrived from Northwestern Spain.
@@theregalbeagle8855 But Celts are not native of nowadays Spain, Celts came from Eastern Europe.
@@perrymanso6841 Celts comprised the indigenous people of Spain along with the mysterious "Iberian" tribes. Wherever they originated, the Celts of Ireland are widely believed to have migrated there from Spain. The central europe theory is no longer valid as it has become more of a religion among mainstream academics and the like.
I am amazed at quality of what's uploaded to TH-cam, thank you to whoever uploaded this!!!
And of course BIG kudos to those who produced this.
What a wonderful teacher! I wish I'd had her for all my college history courses.
I am in love with this Lady. She’s simply amazingly talented and knowledgeable. I’ve listened to this twice already.
Thank you!
Very nice presentation, I indeed liked it.
Thank you for sharing this.
This is amazing! What a great lecture! I learned so many new things!
Most enjoyable. I liked the emphasis on viniculture, and the ongoing belief in the old charm against the Evil Eye.
Thanks for sharing this great video for free here. Would have never known about 'The Great Courses Plus' otherwise. You have amazing content on eclectic topics!
You are welcome, we are glad you're enjoying our videos
Fascinating and entertaining presentation. I enjoyed this.
Wow, that was great, i was born i Cadiz , Spain, i learned alot watching this... a big thank you..
Well done, thank you.
Thanks for the information.
very interesting and informative video, thanks (:
I ❤ my Spanish, history!
Nicely done! Thanks.
excellent, this is the history of Spain I did NOT know.
only the natives of iberia do know they ancestors they have they ancestors legacy that nobody can denies
Excellent video!
It´s a great explanation in 28 minutes. It has been missed the Thartessians and others, but obviously those 3 are the most important of the Ancient Times in Spain
The ancient Tartessians are extremely important. There was an ancient wealthy city not far from Cadiz perhaps between Cadiz and Huelva. Historians still debate.... which prospered precisely with the trade to the east of those precious metals. But the video is about the colonists who came after.
Spain have three regions with High % of RH-blood in the world something different happened here
Im RH- blood 8 persons in my family too, and i m not Basque
Fascinating, thanks👍
Very well explained, and accurate according to the sources and knowledge we currently have.
Your feedback is greatly appreciated, Janet. Thank you and keep learning!
Love on Honor and Grace grandma Josephine! 💜🔥
American who's ancestor's came from Spain hundreds of years ago. This is things I didn't know.
Very good lecture have more by Dr. Salisbury
Thanks for the feedback, Mary! It is much appreciated. Thanks for being a fan and never stop learning!
VIVA ESPANA!!!.
Excellent presentation and please audience don't start to hyperventilate if the background shows a Roman aqueduct instead of a Phoenician Temple dedicated to Melkhart.
Great video
i am one of these decedents and it feels good, got lots of energy :)
Well done. The lecture flew by like nothing.
Amazing video
just great
Bravo
Your working knowledge of the histories of the regions that you presented is amazing. Your presentation is so very clear. Now I understand where the phonix came from I didn't know it was from the northern continent of Africa. I decided to look up the history of Iberia because my DNA showed that my heritage/ethnicity included 14.5% from the peninsula along with 7.8% of North Africa which fits right in with the history you presented. AF
We are glad to hear this, Alex!
There is still so much that you could learn... Never stop seeking knowledge.
I’m very proud of my quarter Spanish blood
The great problem is that the majority of foreighners knows the south part of spain(one who was influence by arabs) or mediterranean lands(influenced by romans). But the reality that in spain still lives the original celtic iberian lands with beautifull valleys sourrounded by mountains.
EXCELLENT LECTURE VERY INTERESTING WAY OF NARRATION
Glad you liked it!
Who else used this for there school project because I did and I put in this video link because I don’t own these and I hoped people would fall in love with this like I did
Some of my family came from Huelva was greek, Phoenician, berber, vistagothic , celtic , tertessan at different times
Very good presentation although I was wziting for an explanation for the prominent pictures of a _Roman_ aqueduct
Indians & Carthaginians developed water & sewerage systems before the Romans did. So there! :P
I´ve lived and worked in Galicia over the course of 5 years, first from 2011-2015, and now... never had I heard the term "Gallegan" before seeing this video, and I´ve studied the language, having acheived a B2/Intermediate level in the language. When in Galicia or Spain, go with "Galician" or just the word in Spanish, "Gallego", unless you are particularly inclined to seeing people´s faces twist into a question mark...
IN EASTERN EUROPE THERE IS ALSO AN ANTIQUE AREA CALLED IBERIA.
Thank you very much for this good summary. I do not have any idea about celtic boats, however I doubt that they can safely cross Biscay, but surely I can be all wrong. Hail for the great unknown mariners of the past!
Great and informative video. Why was Northern Portugal completely excluded since it has the most Celtic castro settlements in the north east of the peninsula? Also Galicia and Portugal (the gal part) get their names from the Celtic Gallaeci tribes defeated by the romans near Gaia (ancient Gale or Cale) in present day Portugal
Who hasn’t had something with the “eye” , in Tunisia to this day we still have the “eye” as decoration on many things traditional.
Also in lebanon , it's everywere, and i always make fun of it, even if someone with envy and bad attitude we say بصيب بالعين، if someone is beautiful we say يخزي العين،😂😂
Also in Cyprus and some parts of Greece we believe that blue eye stones can drive out evil spirits

What about Portugal?
Rafael Melo I came for Portugal, stayed for the peninsula lol
Portugal is a country bro, a separate documentary is required to retell their stories of plunder and glory.
@@octanoszeus And Spain is what? The whole of the Iberian Peninsula? Rafael is obviously right. At this time there was no Spain. The Celts lived in what is now Spain and Portugal. Portugal as a country predates Spain by 300 years. I have no disrespect for Spain but don't mistake Spain for the Iberian Peninsula a a whole... It makes as much sense as calling "England" to the Whole of the British Isles, including Ireland, Wales and Scotland. Jeez.. The decades pass, the age of information arrives... and the mistakes never change.
@@miguelmeloqueiroz3553 not really though... Spain is being used as an English word for Hispania, we obviously are aware that Portugal is a different independent country but whilst the name of Portugal doesn't appear until the reconquista the name of Spain exists since fenician times (Spanie) referring to the whole of the Iberian Peninsula, the Greeks called it Iberia bit this is a latter term and it refers to the river Iber (Ebro) and the Iberian people who were not of celtic origin but most likely native to Hispania so if they call it Spain which really means Hispania and you don't like it, imagine if they called it the Iberian Peninsula which refers to the Iberian tribes who lived along the Mediterranean coast, that is not only leaving Portugal out it's leaving most of modern day Spain out too.
Honestly if we refer to Britannia are we referring to the isle of Great Britain or just the Roman province which didn't include the northernmost part of England and the entirety of Scotland?
Next add some pics or images....to have an idea of what areaof Spain are taking about
It would’ve been so cool if the Ancient Hellenes & Phoenicians made an alliance to create some sort of maritime colonialist empire. Imagine a merge of Phoenician/Carthaginian culture with Ancient Greek politics & architecture.
Nah Rome all day the greatest people to exist second to America thiugh.
@@lexetordo8954 The US of AIDS is a pigsty I'm glad I left! It will be nuked without me! God saved me!
Hey, the Gaida, is the Greek folk music interment an ancient one at that which is just like a bagpipe an the bagpipe was probably derived from the gaida seen as though the Scottish wear kilts just like a lot of the Greeks did & I don't know how you didn't know such a thing of a common fact & woman 'the sound of this instrument is a great deal sweeter sound
GALICIA ALSO SHARES MANY SOCIAL AND CULTURAL SIMILARITIES WITH SCOTLAND.
Kelts were the followers of the burg maiden, Kelta, in the civil-war described in "The Oera Linda".
A the Phoenicians could sail without using the shore cuz they use stars encompasses which gave them an edge on other nations at the time. There is also been found Phoenician coins. And Greeks knew about Spanish silver because they knew about the Phoenicians
is there a second part?
Yes there is, this is one lecture out of a 24 part series; you can find more from us from the links in the description.
Greetings! I am a PhD student in Ancient History and more specifically - Ancient Greece. I focus on all the greek colonies and their government. I want to ask what bibliography has been used for the two poleis - Ampurias and Marseille?
Devastorm a.h.
I am ALBANIAN and for me everything is ALBANIAN. I will explain it to you
First 'celtic'
The word 'qelci' is Albanian and means key or opener in alb. 'Qele' means 'open'. The people worked with metal or iron they made keys.
The Albanian word 'qelc' means key in english
'cle' french
'cleed' or 'keled' persian
'klic' chek
'kluc' balkan slavs.
Only ALBANIAN have original word 'qelc' meaning opener
Example 2
Celti berians
'Qelc' from Albanian to english meaning 'key'
'Ber' from Albanian to english meaning 'make'
'Ian'/Jan (same pronounciation) from Albanian to english meaning they are
GALICIAN 3
Kalican in Albanian means 'They have a horse'
'Kali' from Alb. to eng means horse
'Can'/kan (same pronounciation) means 'they have'
EQUADESI GALICIAN
The plural word for 'Kali' is 'Kual' - When there is more than one horse
e,qua,desi galician
kual alb. They are the horsemen who came to europe on horse back
HIPOS OLD GREEK
asvah sanskrit
asb persian
equus lat ,,,
hipos greek in Alb. 'hip' means 'climb on' or 'get on' on what? horse kali the word galician kalitian means horseman Alb... have that music instrument to GAIDE

'FE' in alb means 'religion' 'E KAN' IS or means to have they had religion
Religion
'Re' in Albanian means 'new'
'Ligj '(same pronounciation as 'lig' in religion) in Albanian means 'law'
GREEKS 5 I think they were ALBANIANS but greeks stole alb... identity and culture and fucked up the Alb. language. They don't understand these words I explained to you.
AMPURIA 6 ''a me pru'' in alb means is to bring sam eng...bring ---prun ALB..
MORSEILLE MOR OR MAR in Alb ..means receive to get seille is not alb...i thinc is eng

@@eya-xh9qo LOL
I had one of those Ancestry DNA tests. It showed I have DNA from places in the Celtic migration trail: Northern Italy, Central Spain, Central Portugal, Wales, England and the Basque country (maybe the Basques have Celtic blood too). That is no coincidence.
Basques, Northwest Spain, Ireland, Wales, Scotland and England are related
Nah, Basques have an even more remote origin than the Celts.
@@perrymanso6841 North Spaniards in the Northwest are related to the Basques who spread out
Celtics,Phoenicians, Greeks,Romans,and who were the others who followed them? And what was their contribution to the Iberian Pen...economy? So the Brits were not the only ones who vanished those they did not like...Little did they know their they would become rich! Thanks for the most interesting lecture. It takes a whole semester to cover all you talked about...
The moors in the very southern portion of the peninsula and Germanic tribes all over the peninsula. I'm sure theres other invaders. But most invaders only influenced the peninsula culturally and not genetically.
Dating problems. She gives the arrival of boats to North Atlantic as 500 BCE. Boats have a long history on the Atlantic coast. Boats brought the first Paleolithic people to the area during the Ice Age and served as transportation for the extensive North Atlantic trade route in the Neolithic, Bronze Age, and up to the present.
Sources????
flowerz Look up the Dover boats.
I knew Spains and Greeks have same origin, because spanish and greek are similar in pronunciation, and antropologicaly they are most similar out of all mediraneans
Following the same logic, all Europeans have the same origin since Celts populated the whole continent. But that is not how It works, because during all history, Europe have got multiple invasions even from other continents...
Wheres Portugal in all this.
Non existent until 1095 AD. When it became a Kingdom.
When they say "Spain" they mean "Hispania." Which is what "Espania" came from. Also The Visigoths called Iberia "Spania." So when they talk about the Reconquista of Spain. It kinda is. Because Hispania, Spania.
"The first object of the allied governments of Spain and France was to invade Portugal (1762), the ancient ally of Great Britain, which was supposed to be wholly incapable of defending itself against so formidable a confederacy…that feeble and defenceless kingdom was invaded shortly afterwards at three distinct points by three Spanish armies. Such was the spirit of patriotism awakened among the peasantry by a few British officers, that the invaders were repulsed, and ultimately driven back in disgrace." - Studies in History
In this time period there is no Portugal or Spain. Therefore the correct term is Iberian peninsula and it's various peoples and settlements. Just as mentioned on the video.
She's full of knowledge, but her aggressive attitude is repulsive.
Beautiful country, but it didn't exist yet.
should talk about the native's in the east and south and Iberia.
The Celts of Ireland, Scotland, Wales and Brittany, France, are basically Iberian. The Irish in particular, have numerous DNA marker that are more related to people from northern Spain and Portugal, than people from the rest of the UK. The Irish are basically Hispanic.
First of all, that division people keep wanting to create between North of Portugal and the rest of the country, simply does not exist. Portugal is an homogeneous country, the differences between the various regions of the country are small.
Then, "hispanic" is a completely wrong word to use here, given the usual meaning attributed to it.
Er... well, it's nice to see a course in which they talk about my country, but more specifically about my land, Galicia. There are some inaccuracies here and there, such as using the word "province" to refer to it, as Galicia is one of Spain's "Autonomous Communities", and this Autonomous Communities are then divided into different provinces (or not, as some of them: the Balearic Islands, Murcia, La Rioja, Asturias, Cantabria and Navarra, consist of one province, but not Galicia, which has four) but calling our language, I'll repeat, language, a dialect... that's simply wrong.
We appreciate you sharing your knowledge and feedback towards this course. We will definitely take this information into consideration when creating future course content to produce a more holistic and informative narrative. Thank you!
@@Wondrium you are welcome. It's not mine but common knowledge here in Spain. Mind you, the word "province" may refer to different actual concepts, from Rome to current countries, but when talking about Spain it's just as I mentioned before. There are 50 provinces (*) and they are grouped in Autonomous Communities. Some are a Community on their own and then there are places like Andalucía that has eight or Castilla y León has nine.
Think of it as the U.S (Spain) has States (Autonomous Communities) which consists of a number of counties (provinces).
And about the language, I'm surprised she called it a dialect. Galician is said to be older than Spanish. Galician was part of the "lingua Galaico-portuguesa" (Galician-Portuguese language, yes) that was spoken in the North-West region of the Iberian peninsula.
When time came in the Middle Ages to Portugal to go its own way, while Galicia was still a part of Castille, that language evolved in different ways, that's why now we have Portuguese and Galician, which seems to be half way from Portuguese to Spanish but it's a language of its own.
Thank you.
(*) And Ceuta and Melilla, the two Spanish cities in Africa, which are considered "Autonomous Cities", which I wouldn't be able to explain exactly what that implies without looking it up, but it's half way there between city, province and community.
Im Uruguayan and when I took a DNA test it was Celtic from Spain lol
Hello Kingdom of Spain January 2 1492. Before this day, multiple ethnic groups competing for control of the IBERIAN PENINSULA. Saludos
It's not Madison, but still interesting.
Los fenicios no le dieron nombre Gadir a Cadiz... viene del nombre Atlante Gadeiro o Gadiro, el hermano gemelo de Atlas y es lugar mas antiguode toda Europa, y los fenicios llegaba allí porque comerciaban con los Tartessos. Aprendan eso de los expertos de España, no de lo que inventan los angloparlantes.,
Kelisha can be translated to kalasha or kalash, kalash or kelish people are Greeks, descendants of Alexander the Greats soldiers, that have settled all over the world, known to have settled in Afghanistan.
It's Castro, not Castra. The rest is great! Few people pay attention to Galicia in history...
She might well be referrign to the Latin plural of 'castrum', which is indeed 'castra'
@@MrMayorqw I find it annoying how many Romance languages changed Latin words. At least in English we use the original Latin words, so it's less confusing and less complicated.
Galicia!!!
Angyliv are you from Galicia? Spain?
Long live Galicia and the 8 Celtic Nations!
I am trying to postulate a theory on the Druids. I know they had contact with the Iberians but I am still puzzled about the Druids origin.
Another country (Spain) established with help of the Greeks.
Greeks truly are the heart of Europe. Also Without Greece there would be no Roman Empire or Italy.
Claiming the Iberian Peninsula as just Greek intervention is pretty poor to say the least. Iberia was forged by the influence of multiple civilizations with different origins.
@@perrymanso6841 Most of the culture though is mostly based on Latin culture though, Rome definitely played the biggest influence while the Visigoths reinforced it.
So what language was spoken in Iberia before the supposed arrival of the "Celts" in the mid-1st millennium bc ?
That's actually a good point. This video's premise is pretty stupid because the earliest languages of Spain are Tartessian, Iberian, and Celtic. The Celts go as far back in Spain as the Iberians so they aren't immigrants in the same sense Greeks and Romans were. What a stupid title, honestly.
Probably it was old basque, like in a lot part of europe, for example old sardinian was closely related to basque, armenian and georgian are probably related too.
😬👌
If is about Iberian Peninsula why calling Spain?
Actually, if I am not mistaken, Lisbon was also founded by the Phoenicians, and for that, Lisbon is the second most ancient capital of Europe, after Athens.
Rafael Melo
You look more phoenician than Celtic, are you from Lisbon?
Even if Lisbon was founded by the phoenicians, it was founded after Cadiz. So Cadiz would be much older than Lisbon, so is imposible that Lisbon is the second oldest city in Europe by a big margin. Cadiz is even older than Athens, which means that is the oldest city in Europe that has been continously populated.
Paul Tremblay
i disagree ,the Phoenicians were just the Imliq (Hyksos/Amorite/Amalekites) who were mixed with the Asiatics(Canaanites) who are just the Dravidians and people same as pure native americans(same type of culture)
one just has to see the deities worshiped by the Phoenicians . Also the Etruscans and Minoans are branches of the Indo Aryan Lydians(neo-hittites) in vrete they with the dravidians and also dravidians were mixed with etruscans
wayne h
I disagree with you, there are no bases for what you said. The Dravidian elements you talking about was more common in Yemen, Qatar, Iran.
I think that the Sumerians were probably Dravidian who are related to the people of Sri Lanka.
Arabia was also Dravidian and Arabia is where all out of Africa migrants come from and the Dravidian type is among the most anciy,they even reached Japan and Australia.
In Japan they call them "jomon people", and they are the ancestors of the Aïnu people. In Australia they are the aboriginal people.
Dravidians are so ancient that they found their DNA in South America in some native American Indians Who later came and assimilated them.
Dravidians so ancient and migrated out of Africa to the southern costs of Asia so long agot,they could had claimed the entire planet to themselves, having been stronger and progressed with New technology.
Instead they stayed primitive or builders of temples in India, but without iron agent sophisticated weapons,and they got displaced.
♥️
Herodotus more importantly preserved the ancient memory of the moment when the Atlantlic flooded the Med Basin nmillennia beforehand. A true cataclysm. That is no myth and does not belong to legend.
If this is the history of Spain as described in the title, please remove Portugal from the maps ...thank you,
Also description of Cadiz in 10:57 seems wrong according to the websites i visited, namely wikipedia
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_oldest_continuously_inhabited_cities

Galicia comes from Cale, the ancient Celt name of Porto, Portugal. Ancient Galicia was the area that goes from the river Douro,Porto all the way to the northwestern coast of the Iberian peninsula. The Greeks use to call the tribe, the Kallakois, people from Cale/Kale. Cale developed to Galeacia with the romans and to Galicia in the Middle Ages. The settlement of Cale (the nowadays city of Porto) was renamed by the romans as Portus Cale which means “port port” in two different languages, in latin and celt. The word developed to portucale over the Dark and Middle Ages and eventually to nowadays Portugal (the other Celt-Iberian country). Also, porto is the actual Portuguese word for port/harbour. Embarrassing the way they don’t get their facts right, misleading the viewers! Funny as some of the images are in Portugal. Iberia pls and not Sp.........!! ;)
In lebanon, the eye thing, is still a belief, like all old people take it seriously, and if they have something beautiful, they put a blue eye on it, and i always make fun of them😂
Very good condensed lecture.
The turning of the lecturer after every sentence is distracting though.
LOL
The Oregon of Spain
The state Oregon comes from the Spanish name Obregón.
Lesson? Freedom and sovereignty work!
She ignores the locals.....The Iberians....she took he history fm a cookie wrapper....
LjFJDhs, Recent DNA studies show the Basques to be Neolithic in origin. Their language is most likely from the Neolithic languages of the area.
That is my whole point... Spanish investigation on their own history is not dedicated and poorly executed. The government does not dedicate neither money nor time to excavate or learn about their past. Little is known about these early tribes so influential for the future northern colonies. It is a shame our history remains in the shadows and completely underestimated.
26:46
They inhibited the east coast only, celts populated the majority of the region.
She did not ignore. The video is talking about the colonists after the Neolithic people native people.
I am an Iberian of the original stock. I am not Celtic as those invaded from the north when my people were already there. Germanics like Visigoths and Vandals were some of the latest invaders, and the king of Spain is one of them, not a true Iberian. I did videos covering my getting banned at a racist website because I put the Germanics in their place who had to delete the thread where I whupped all of them even though they ganged up on me for being non-Germanic yet claiming to be Spanish. True Iberians are not Germanics AT ALL. Germanics were TOTALLY IRRELEVANT to the earliest centuries of Iberia. Greeks have a better claim at being native Iberians, than Germanic impostors. God let the barbarians take over much of the country as elsewhere in the then-Roman world, because the Roman world was proud, so God gave the reins of power to new nations coming in despite all being Caucasian and from Yafet. I plan to learn Basque which must be the modern form of ancient Iberian, adopted by Celts who pretend to be a unique race among the Spanish, yet are indistinguishable from their Germanic neighbours because they are Celts and Celts are essentially proto-Germanics, the first of them in western Europe.
I'm from galicia. Is galicia native oh indigenous
Gaeletia too in Turkey.
This is a very interesting video but the title is very poorly chosen. "The History of Spain". The narrator keeps saying "Spain" as a synonym to Iberian Peninsula.. And then keeps mentioning that the Celts traveled by sea from "Spain" to The British Isles. Then why not say they traveled from Spain to England? Why say British Isles or even mention "Ireland", "Scotland" or "Wales"?
Well, if the Celts traveled through the Atlantic, they probably came from what is now Portugal, which holds most of the Atlantic coast of the Peninsula. Yet she says "Spain". I'm sure some people must be thinking "what's the bi difference?" - well imagine we're talking about the Celts arriving by boat in Ireland and say they arrived in "England"... How wrong would that information be?
In those times there were no Spain, Portugal, Scotland or England. So we either say Iberian Peninsula and British Isles, or we say "What is now Spain, Portugal, Scotland or England" - but don't call Spain to the whole peninsula just as you don't call England to the whole of the British Isles.
In fact this sometimes seems intentional because, how can the Greek presence in the Peninsula be mentioned without talking about Lisbon. The city was named after Ulysses, as its original name was Olyssipo, as the legend says it was founded by Ulysses. It just keeps being ducked and sidestepped, as it would be too complicated for people to compute the complex idea that there two countries in the Peninsula, and not one.
Miguel Melo Queiroz this is one lecture out of a series on what is now known, in english, as Spain. So you can’t expect this 30 minutes to tell the whole story. You wouldn’t criticize a history book as incomplete having only read the first chapter.
Very good. Thanks for pointing that out:)
This is true. There was no such place called Spain in the time period that is is referring to. That, and Portugal both came MUCH later.
Also the Iberian that were there were not one people but various tribes, whose people were not all decended from the same origin. Just as the people from what is now France and other areas.
A more modern example are the English. Modern English Brit, are many s mix of the true Brits, and Normans, Gauls, Anglo-Saxons, and others.
Yup, they should have used the term Iberia or Iberian Peninsula.
The title is incorrect.
It should read Hispana.
True.
