Terry Jones' Barbarians - "The Primitive Celts"
« on: September 05, 2011, 06:15:30 pm »

(Shown on Youtube in four 15 minute sections)

Show about the Celts/Gauls and how Roman history portrayed them vs the reality, and the reasons the Romans gave for invading them vs the real reason etc... Really good, it's very much like the USA/European invasion of the Middle East.

Yes, I enjoyed that documentary. The dramatic difference in the history from a "barbarian" perspective as vs. the Roman perspective I was given in history classes and texts makes brings to mind the old saying of history being written by the victors.
