Presentation

Created in 1992, the annual International Chair is intended to welcome, for one academic year, a scientist from an Eastern European country or from another continent.

The Celts of Italy

" Ancient authors report that Celtic peoples settled in vast areas of central and northern Italy (Gallia cisalpina). When and how did they arrive ? What relationship did they have with previous occupants (notably the Etruscans) ? Can we identify them and describe their civilization through texts and archaeology ? Recent research has yielded a wealth of data, which will be presented in Mr. Daniele Vitali's lectures. "

Christian Goudineau, Professor at the Collège de France.
