La Tène Culture
Send to Google Classroom:
The La Tène culture (c. 450 - c. 50 BCE) is named after the site of that name on the northern shores of Lake Neuchâtel in Switzerland. Replacing the earlier Hallstatt culture (c. 1200 - c. 450 BCE) as the dominant culture of central Europe, especially in terms of art, artefacts of the La Tène culture have been discovered in a wide arc covering western and central Europe, spanning from Ireland to Romania. The La Tène culture is often incorrectly equated with the mid-Iron AgeCelts, despite its documented presence in areas both inside and outside territories occupied by speakers of the Celtic language. The La Tène culture went into decline following the conquest of Gaul by Julius Caesar (c. 100-44 BCE) in the mid-1st century BCE, even if elements continued to be seen in the material culture of Celtic peoples in Britain and Ireland.
