The ancient Celts: More Europe-wide than you would think

Map shows spread of Celtic tribes encompassed all of Europe – and beyond.

A FASCINATING TUMBLR site, if you haven’t yet fallen upon it, is Mapsontheweb.

Along with interesting trivia such as which restaurant is split by a national border and what a world map would look like if all countries with a sea coast were to sink.

The blog has also uncovered a map which shows the expansion of Celtic tribes across Europe – it shows how they spread to the Iberian peninsula (Hispano Celts), to France (Gauls) to Eastern Europe, and as far afield as Ireland (naturally) and Turkey (Galatians).

Have a look here:

This map, on the other hand, shows the six modern Celtic nations (from the Celtic League‘s Carn magazine):

    A KP was always referred to as a pot washer..it’s only when Head chefs and restaurant owners respect the job they do and pay them that respect will they ever understand “All” the cogs that makes a restaurant succeed. Well done Noma.

    Anyone who has ever worked in a kitchen will tell you a good KP is worth two decent chefs.

    Sonko Dishwasher. He should trade mark that and license the name out to a leading manufacturer.

    Absolutely, restaurant that needs publicity for rebranding (and a new dishwasher as current dishwasher is getting old) comes up with cunning plan

    So cynical. Best restaurant in the world probably has a waiting list doubt they need advertise. Plus giving away 33% of the company, hardly a publicity stunt

    It doesn’t actually say equal ownership anywhere, so the truth could be a long way from 33%. You could give him 0.1% of the place, and he’d still be a co-owner

    Clearly you have no common sense, a business man gives his most loyal staff a reward, and u get all political? Effectively noma is for the people run by the people, a co-op, this makes good business sense,!!!

    What a really stupid and insensitive headline. That’s disgraceful . Why could you not say a person who washed dishes?

    Blame the headline for using the title that his now-partners use for him? Stop being such a PC orifice that excretes waste.

    I think you’ll find the proper term is table wear sanitation engineer.
