Archaeologists in Poland have discovered a rare find — a 2,300-year-old bronze helmet and other artifacts that establish for the first time that Celtic peoples lived in the country's north.
While the Celts (some were called Gauls by the Romans) are known to have colonized southern Poland around 400 B.C., this is the first evidence of them in the north — and it's likely they settled there to secure their supplies of precious amber, according to archaeologist Bartłomiej Kaczyński of the State Archaeological Museum in Warsaw, who led the excavations.
