Description:
An ambitious (if highly controversial and speculative) rethinking of Celtic civilization which aims to demonstrate the sophistication of the Celts as astronomers and surveyors through the route of the via Herakleia. This, Robb claims was designed to mirror the line of the rising sun at the Summer Solstice, and that settlements were consciously laid out according to the bearings involved.
