Rare intact Celtic tomb discovered

Wow, how exciting. Good find SW.

That should keep the archaeologists going for a while. But I just hope they lay the bones back to rest after they've finished with them.

Does any one have any links to info about the Celts in France?

Good article wish they shown more of what was found in the grave and I agree with electro13 that afther the examination that the bones be lay to rest.

Great find, i'm looking forward to see what comes out.

The craftsmanship on the jewellery is just so beautiful! The ruffles are perfect. What a wonderful find, it must have been the thrill of a lifetime to find something so amazing...WOW!!

Does any one have any links to info about the Celts in France? Celts in France have been destroyed multiple times over, first by Caesar and his legions, second by christian church who made sure nothing was left. We know for certain there was a temple in Chartres where the actual cathedral has been built, there was a black Madonna with child revered by Druids but the Madonna has been destroyed also. Here are a couple links I found. http://eps.mcgill.ca/~courses/c435/Magntics-papers/Gradient-techniques_TheLeadingEdge/tle_archeol2.pdf http://www.lessing-photo.com/search.asp?a=1&kc=2020202023B...

I just wonder if the archeologist are going to expose those finds like they did with other cultures (Egyptian Assyrian etc..) or returned the entire tomb to its place of rest and what is going to be done to left it protected from grave robbers?

"Dear diary... Jackpot!"

Very nice find indeed! Should be a fascinating research project for the people involved. The rings etc. look amazing, the preservation is astonishing.
