Introduction

Terry Jones’ Barbarians is a 4-part TV documentary series first broadcast on BBC 2 in 2006.

Outline

This episode challenges the popular view of Celtic society as a primitive culture that was uncivilised. Compared to Rome, it was actually an advanced society and, in some ways, even more advanced than Rome. For example, many of the roads in Gaul that were assumed to have been built by the Romans were actually built by the Celts themselves.
