The World of the Celts

In early times the Celts strongly advanced their civilizations from Asia Minor westward following the Danube River all the way across Europe to the British Isles and northward to the Scottish Highlands.  The "Celtic Bull" symbolizes the strength and diversity characterized by an opportunistic investment portfolio.

 

Celtic Bull

 

"The whole race...is madly fond of war, high-spirited and quick to battle...and on whatever pretext you stir them up, you will have them ready to face danger, even if they have nothing on their side but their own strength and courage." - Strabo, first century BC...

"The Celti who lived about the Adriatic joined Alexander for the sake of establishing friendship and hospitality...the king received them kindly and asked them when drinking what it was that they most feared, thinking they would say himself, but they replied they feared nothing, unless it were that Heaven might fall on them, although indeed they added that they put above everything else the friendship of such a man as he." - Strabo
