."Once We Were Barbarians" offers a fresh perspective on the history and genetics of ancient northern and central European peoples, such as the Celts and the Germani, who were branded as barbarians by the Romans. Drawing on the latest genetic research and artistic reconstructions of Palaeolithic, Mesolithic, and Neolithic northern Europeans, the book explores the controversies sparked by modern historical revisionism. It also sheds light on the many forgotten nomadic tribes of Eurasia - from the Scythians to the Cumans - who once swept into Europe.
