Spain....The Motherland of Celts.

[Osweo]

Local legend states that any person who sees the image or shape of a lion's head in the Castro de Baroña rock formations will be chosen to join the rebirth of the Celtic Clan of Baroña

Shit! I saw it!
Now, where do I sign up for my chunk of hacienda and share in the ganaderia?

Castro de Baroña
Just south of the fishing village of "Porto do Son" there are the 2000-year old ruins of a Celtic fort at "Castro de Baroña". These ruins were only rediscovered in 1933 and are protected as a Spanish "Artistic Heritage" site. Local legend states that any person who sees the image or shape of a lion's head in the Castro de Baroña rock formations will be chosen to join the rebirth of the Celtic Clan of Baroña

Those types of ruins are more commonly found in this area:

Maybe the map is not the best, but it was the only one i could find. They are more commonly found in the northwest surely anyway, including Cantabria.

the misunderstanding is the population density, Cantabria is obviously a small territory full of mountains, less suitable for human settlement that Galicia or Portugal, but certainly what we know as "Celtic castro" in Iberia is the same that the traditional Cantabrian village or "poblado cántabro".

That means I'm related to Rafael Nadal. Heck, tennis must run in the blood since I'm Djokovic's long lost brother as well (Pontid brotherhood).

Fail. Rafael Nadal is from the Iberian side of the Peninsula, not from Hispanoceltia.

he's a Balear Islander. Not a Peninsular Iberian. For all we know he could descend from the Honderos Baleares

En la narración de Licofrón de Calcis (280 a. C.) en su poema Alexandra (versos 633-641) hablando de los fugitivos de la guerra de Troya que llegan a Gimnesias (antiguo nombre dado por los griegos al archipiélago balear y por el autor del poema de origen griego) se da esta descripción:


Después de navegar como cangrejos en las rocas de Gimnesis rodeados de mar, arrastraron su existencia cubiertos de pieles peludas, sin vestidos, descalzos, armados de tres hondas de doble cordada. Y las madres señalaron a su hijos más pequeños, en ayuno, el arte de tirar; ya que ninguno de ellos probará el pan con la boca si antes, con piedra precisa, no acierta un pedazo puesto sobre un palo como blanco.

For be honest, as a Cantabrian, is more familiar to me one Rafael Nadal fighting close with my ancestors against the Romans (or defending the Numantia walls of my neighbors) that a strange face like Novak Djokovic

For all we know, he could be descended from Phoenicians or Xuetes.

I already played enough AoE back in the days.
