Today our students had to endure the tortures of defining 'Celtic' - and having mentioned Celtic crosses, I went out later to search for a Celtic cross in the cemetery across the road from my office. And there it was, quite impressive - dedicated to a well-known Irishman of the 19th century
Heuneburg field trip with our students. Sooo impressive!

Am ddridiau arbennig – llawn o ddysg, dathlu a chofio, a llawer o hwyl! Diolch i bawb yn @yganolfangeltaidd.bsky.social – a phen blwydd happys/hapus! Three glorious days – full of learning, celebration and remembering, and lots of fun! Huge thanks to all at the Canolfan and many happy returns!
I could not resist the temptation to co-organize a workshop at the Freie Universität, even if doing so less than in a week after the conference in Bonn is a clear symptom of madness. And I really loved it – but it had to be a very short visit, so no interaction beside that with colleagues and a cat
It was a pleasure having you with us, dear Christian! I have learnt a lot!
Grmma!
We have missed you!
Also feeling thankful and honoured to serve as the new president of the Societas Celtologica Europaea. Pictures and more coherent words to follow ;)
Still struggling to find coherent words to report about the Fourth European Symposium in Celtic Studies - meanwhile only endless gratitude to the team, thankfulness to all the colleagues who came and made it such a wonderful new milestone in the history of Celtic Studies in Bonn!
Congratulations!
